I began losing weight this summer after my annual medical exam revealed hyper tension, high cholesterol, and obesity. Initially 230 lbs, I removed certain medications, made diet adjustments, and regular walks. I was able to shed pounds...massive amounts of weight. And it was brutal, because the cravings were tugging me into breaking my new regimen. Also, I work in a rather shitty industry (I babysit CEOs of failing companies), where the stress levels can send you to the hospital if not directly to the morgue. By the time I reached the 182 lbs, somewhere in September, my knees stopped hurting, I could walk 2 miles without passing out, and dropped from stage 3 hypertension to barely below stage 1. I had loose skin and remaining fat hanging on my back and midsection, that still made it uncomfortable to bend down and tie my shoes. Also my shitty job didn't allow me to take PTO so, I needed a clinic to operate on a weekend. DR. Khan and his team ticked the boxes, and after researching liposuction and watching YouTube videos on the procedure, I decided to book an appointment. The Weehawken location is cute. I love the Edgewater area. It is a relaxing, clean, brand new neighborhood right on the water. The procedure is local anesthesia and it took no more than two hours. It began at 8 am and i was home by 10.30 am. And the area treated was large, so it is amazing Dr. Khan did it in such short time. You are given pasties and a pair of disposable underwear. The doctor marks the areas that need to be treated. Then you are laid down on the operating table, and incisions are made for the cannula to enter. The operation was manageable, some areas were more painful than others, and it depends on the person. The Valium helped a lot along with more sedatives. It is a very safe procedure and it goes very fast. There are no open wounds. The incisions heal quickly and you are given an adequate amount of antibiotics two weeks prior to the surgery. Make sure you follow the doctor's advice like the Bible. I did, and I'm healing well. They will give you Oxycodone for post surgery pain. I did not need it at all. I think that if the surgeon is excellent, there is no need of pain killers. That's how I knew I had made the right decision. Besides the soreness and the discomfort, I was able to manage without opiates. Also, wearing faja will drastically alleviate the pain. I had a protein rich diet, with zinc and vitamin c, absolutely no carbs, and one week after the operation I was feeling great. I did not develop bumps or odd wrinkles on the treated areas. It is the midsection of a former obese woman, but I am kind to myself and did not expect a 6 pack to pop out. I am grateful to be able to tie my shoes and being able to walk and do chores around the house instead of living in a pigsty ridden with empty vodka bottles and pizza boxes. The lipo really motivated me to cook at home, control portions, take care of myself, really evaluate what I want in my life/career, and tell my boss to fuck off. Go to Dr. Khan for lipo and follow his team's advice to the T.
I have to say Dr.Khan took his sweet time explaining details to details with my mother (i went with my mother) ... She was nervous and of course a lot of questions as a new patient who wouldnt?? I have to say i LOVED everything, and made us feel comfortable... the process was easy and most of all my mother is HAPPY with her results!!!!! Thanks doc !!!
Just left from my 2nd tattoo removal session, love this place! Originally his Hoboken office patient... drove from an hour away because i knew Dr khan can be trusted and does an amazing job! Left very happy
