Hey there!  It's Jen Byrum and on February 29th Dr. Paul Drago at Genesis Anti-Aging and Costmetic Surgery changed my life.  He removed one gallon of fat from my belly using a laser to melt the fat first in a procedure called Smart Lipo. 
The way my stomach looked before the procedure was something that I was very self-conscious about and effected everything from my confidence to how I dressed to cover it up.  In fact, I couldn't even see my belly button when I looked down because of the layer of fat at my belt line.

When I heard about Smart Lipo I was really interested.  For one the procedure is less invasive and traumatic because of the use of a laser.  Only four small incisions are made and there are no stitches involved.  Also the very short recovery time was exactly what I needed being a busy working mom.  I literally had the procedure on Friday and was back to work on Monday!

As for the results... AMAZING!  I have never felt so proud and confident!  My tummy is flat and I have already gone down two pant sizes.  (Remember this is less than 4 weeks after my surgery.)  The full results won't happen for another two months as the swelling will continue to reduce.  Honestly, I would be thrilled with my results now and to know that there is more to come is wonderful.

I can hardly put into words how much fun it is to get dressed!  I stand in my closet and know that any shirt I put on will fit perfectly and look flattering.  I am wearing my skinny jeans now!  The best part... for the first time in 7 years, I am tucking my shirts in and wearing a belt.  I find myself holding my head higher and even standing up straighter, no longer ashamed of how I look. 

There's more too.  See, Dr. Drago isn't into the quick fix.  He doesn't see Smart Lipo as the easy way out.  Actually, he has inspired me to live a new healthier life that includes exercise, eating right and giving up bad habits.  The more I see my results, the more dedicated I have been to taking care of my body and my soul.  This process has truly been live changing.  It's not just about my outward appearance anymore, either.  It's how I feel. I have more energy, I smile more, there's a definate pep in my step and for the first time in years, I am comfortable in my own skin.

I love Dr. Drago!  He is honest, caring, and so skilled in his field that you feel like writing down everything he says.  He even created his own line of vitamins because he was frustrated with the ones that were available in stores when he decided to get healthy himself.  He practices what he preaches too.  You will find Dr. Drago in the gym everyday before work, making healthy choices throughout the day and he has even had Smart Lipo himself!  He is active in his church and community, dedicated to his family and the wellness of his patients.  He speaks frankly and realistically to you and is teaches Smart Lipo to other doctors in the region.

In the next several months I will continue to write about my results and and the difference it has made in my life.  At 37 years old, I have a renewed confidence and determination to find my true happiness.

Hello again!  I wanted to write a quick update on my recovery from Smart Lipo... I am feeling great!  And check out the before and after pics!  Sometimes I can't even believe the results when I look at them.
One thing I really want you to keep in mind as you see the before and after pics is this... I have not had anything else done to my stomach, the photos were not doctored to make the results look better, and I have not been dieting or exercising like a maniac.  In fact, in the last month I have really not exercised much at all and this is still the actual way my tummy looks.
That's why I keep saying how amazing Smart Lipo is!
I am so excited because yesterday I got to tape the television commercial for Dr. Drago, Genesis Anti Aging and Cosmetic Surgery and Smart Lipo.  I am a real spokesperson!  Very cool!
I want you to know that I am so proud to represent a prodecure that I truly believe in and would recommend to friends and family. 
The one question that I keep getting is would I decide do it again and is it worth it.  Yes and Yes!!!  I am so glad I has Smart Lipo and am considering a few other areas that might need a little work. (Hips, love handles, and legs)  The way I feel about myself now is night and day from two months ago.  
I trust Dr Drago completely and adore his passion for what he does.  He loves the way his work makes his patients feel.
Smart Lipo has made me feel wonderful in a time of my life when I really needed it.  I hope you will call Genesis today for your Smart Lipo consultation... 704-544-1300.  It has truly been one of the greatest things i have ever done for myself.
