Well, it’s time for the big Smart Lipo consultation. Let me just say…I hope everyone appreciates the fact that I videotaped me in my underwear getting bullseyes drawn on my body to share this experience with you! Seriously though, the consultation wasn’t as scary as I thought it was going to be.
The consultation included Dr. Goodkind telling me about Smart Lipo, me asking questions, disrobing to make a plan, and then reviewing where and what we want to do. So I broke the videos up into a few separate clips so that you could easily see everything.
Did I forget to ask any important questions? What do you think? Should I get it all done?
Okay, I am going through all of these procedures and feel like I have a much better understanding of what Kati uses, what’s available, how she uses her experience to create a custom plan for my face.
But I was at one of FUZION’s Thursday night events recently and loved how Kati was explaining the difference between all of the fillers she uses–Radiesse, Sculptra, Juvederm, and more.
Anyway, take a look, ask more questions and let me know what you think!
Here are some great accolades for our favorite gadget! Oprah, Tyra, Justin, Courtney and NOW ERICA! Clairsonic is a great way to clean, polish, smooth, oxygenate and “anti-age” your skin! It is a great gift. I recently advised a pregnant friend to use it on her belly. She has been using it with a cleanser and then applying topical moisturizer. Not a stretchmark in site. I can’t guarantee that this will work your your belly bump, but it can’t hurt!
“Clarisonic’s technology is new, but the problem it’s trying to solve is old. Anybody who’s walked by an American magazine stand knows there’s a powerful demand for products to help people look and feel younger and healthier. There’s also no shortage of late-night TV hucksters with overhyped lotions and potions, so it can take a while for a legitimate product in the skin care business to gain traction. But for those that do succeed, like Allergan’s anti-wrinkle product Botox or Medicis’s Restylane, the rewards can be huge. The U.S. market for skin-care products is estimated at about $20 billion a year, according to Impact Marketing Consultants.
The Clarisonic product has been around for five years, but it started gaining momentum in the past two. It started in 2007 when Oprah gushed on her TV show that it was one of her favorite things (that always helps). More recently, Courtney Cox confided on The Rachael Ray Show that Clarisonic is one of her beauty secrets. Cameron Diaz, Tyra Banks, and Justin Timberlake have all said publicly they are fans of Clarisonic. None are paid spokespeople, says marketing director Bill McClain.”
It’s Kati here. Well, get ready! Erica had her consult with Dr. Goodkind for her Smart Lipo MPX and boy was she brave!! She actually stood there, on camera and bared it all for you to see. Next week you will be able to watch the entire consultation. All of her questions were answered and then some. I can’t tell you how excited she is about her up coming procedure. I keep telling her “just wait,” you won’t believe how much fat you leave in the jar! It will amaze you. Here some misconceptions that I have come across this week about Smart Lipo MPX this week.
1. NO, THE FAT DOES NOT GROW BACK! Your body has a finite number of fat cells. Once they are removed they are gone. If you should gain weight, the other fat cells fill in proportion to the amount of weight you gain. This is NOT an answer to obesity, weight loss or taking care of yourself.
2. IT TAKES MULTIPLE TREATMENTS. No. Smart Lipo MPX is “one and done.” The procedure, depending on how large of an area takes only a few hours.
3. ALL SMART LIPO IS THE SAME! Not true. The Smart Lipo MPX is the fastest, most effective and safest version of this technology. The older versions do not have the power to get the same results. The MPX has an internal temperature gauge that help to keep the procedure safe and highly effective. This helps the skin tightening aspect. If you are not getting your procedure done at FUZION, ask if you are getting the MPX. If not, do your research – the call FUZION.
4. IT IS MORE EXPENSIVE THAN TRADITIONAL LIPO. Not true. Smart Lipo MPX may not be cheap, but without the anesthesia, hospital and ancillary staff costs, you are paying the same amount for a more effective procedure.
5. TRADITIONAL LIPO IS BETTER. Not true. Smart Lipo MPX not only liquifies the fat so it is easier to remove, but the second laser wave length heats up the skin and causes tightening. Traditional lipo left larger scars, rippling and untreated irregularities.
I hope that I have helped to dispell some of the misconceptions surrounding Smart Lipo MPX. If you should have more questions, please don’t hesitate to email me directly at kati@fuzionct.com or Dr. Goodkind at dr.g@fuzionct.com. We are more than happy to help. Or better yet, set up your free consultation appointment today.
Okay…call me silly. I know that I have to get a lot of questions answered, and get mentally prepared for my consultation with Dr. Goodkind. But ladies…I’ve got to prioritize.
After all, I am going to be IN MY UNDERWEAR in front of all of you! I have to make sure I have a good set on!
Here are a few of the questions that I need answered…
-Is there anything I should do to prep my body in advance? Diet, vitamins to help the healing process?
-What happens if I gain or lose weight? Does the fat come back?
-Will it be easier after the procedure to show muscle definition?
-Scaring? At incision sites?
-Curves? Will I still have curves?
-Will my existing clothes still fit?
-I heard that will be awake during? Will I feel anything during the procedure?
I was walking around the Jacob Javits Convention Center at a buying show and got a text that I have my consult with Dr. Goodkind this week! I have a ton of questions:
Will I have an incision? Will there be a scar?
I heard there will be a compression thing I have to wear? For how long?
How much smaller will I be? Will my current clothes still fit?
What will my skin feel like after? Will it still be soft or does it get hard under the skin?
I have a bunch more but maybe you have a question I should be asking…Can you leave me a comment with a few questions I should ask? Thank you for your support!
Peace,
Erica
Well it is Sunday morning and I woke up ready to go for a run! I got dressed and my husband smacks my butt and says “I like that butt” I said “well you know next week it is going to change” he made a face and is not so sure he is going to like the change…I assured him that I will still have womenly curves…but I guess that should be a question for me to ask Dr. G next week?!
I am hoping to change enough to fit in the new skinny cords that I got in the store last week!
There is a buzz all over the shoreline about Erica getting her Smart Lipo MPX! I have gotten so many questions about the procedure I thought that I needed to explain. First, everyone has areas on their body that can not be “fixed” with exercise. As Dr. Goodkind has explained, it is about proportion. Problem areas get larger and smaller as weight is gained and lost. Smart Lipo MPX is the latest technology in laser liposuction. It liquifies the fat, tightens the skin and leaves you a more sculpted person. In a recent article quoting actors’ favorite plastic surgery procedures, they listed four of FUZION’s favorite things: Smart Lipo, Clarisonic, Radiesse and BOTOX! We are on the right track to get you to where you want to be. Erica has already been using three of the four and now it is time for Smart Lipo MPX!
The procedure is easy, comfortable and has very little down time! The average person returns to their regular activities within a couple of days. The best part is that when the procedure is over – YOU LEAVE THE FAT IN THE JAR! It is a one time procedure that permanently removes the fat cells in the targeted area.
Smart Lipo MPX, as with all cosmetic procedures, is NOT a substitute for weight loss, exercise and overall good health. We recommend a full complimentary consultation to assess whether you are a medically appropriate candidate for Smart Lipo MPX, or any other cosmetic procedure. The consultation is free – so stop hiding your potential! What have you got to lose.
Okay, I am getting excited [and nervous]. Next week is my BIG consult with Dr. Goodkind. We are going to officially decide what areas we are going to go after with SmartLipo! I am going to be doing lots of research, posting links and information I find on SmartLipo [maybe even try to figure out which celebrities have done it!] over the next few days. I’ll keep you posted on when the big day is, but I think it is Thursday.
