Sono Bello

I had upper and lower, ab liposuction, plus the the ab ax, ex?
I look like an muffin top now more than ever. I had an appointment today, April 18,2024. The surgeon came and told me I look good. Which she could clearly see I did not, but you look better than when you came in. Look at what you were before you came here. I said I spent a lot of money here not to look dysfunctional. I want to be proportion, she then went scare tactic and told me if I have more liposuction I would have she named it. I don't know what it is skin disease. The nurse chimed in and said my stomach like a balloon the more you take out my stomach the more wrinkles I would have. The commercial said that taken away forever but no, I have a lot of fat on the upper half now. And I eat a lot of chicken and salad. I don't think it was done. Not only that when I was there, they pulled her out of surgery to talk to me.
I raise that concern and then she told me she doing me a favor. I feel like I was robbed. Then she said my fat is because she couldn't pull the skin down because it's on the upper half. And she could only do 50 to 75% of fat removal. I can grab at least 3 inches and I weigh 130.

Had laser assisted lipo done at sonobello. Felt a terrible burning sensation during the procedure which the dr said was normal and dismissed.
At the 1 week follow up had an extremely painful sore that was unlike the other surgical sites but was told it was as a tape allergy although I've never experienced that prior and all other sites which were taped appeared normal.
Sought a second opinion the following day and found I had an undiagnosed staph infection and full thickness 3rd degree burn from the procedure. It took nearly 5 months and multiple other procedures and burn center visits to heal. Left with permanent scarring and disfigurement.

This has been the most terrible experience of my life. I had two laser lipo done in sonobello. The first was on my stomach, low back and side. Yes if there was pain three occasions Through the surgery it felt like a burned inside terrible I screamed. The second surgery was for my upper back, it was a nightmare, the medicine and the local anesthesia didn't work at all. I felt everything from the beginning, I screamed and cried throughout the whole procedure. And the only thing the doctor said is stop screaming no sympathy. How he wants me to stop screaming and crying when it was and intense, terrible pain. Supposedly this is not Invasive they say is not true is awful. And the incisions that they say are very small just look at my photos Disgusting incision. It was a terrible experience at Sonobello Long Island NY. I'm so disappointed.

I gave them a large cash deposit for a procedure in July of 2021, due to medical circumstances I was unable to have the procedure. The 1st attempt to have the service, my prescription for pain med was called into the wrong pharmacy and I was not notified of the procedure date. 2nd and third time I had to send lab work and again no response on the blood work, I had to call repeatedly to find out that the procedures were canceled. I was not contacted again to reschedule or discuss next steps. When I asked for a refund, no response. I called corporate, no response. Next step is an attorney. I would advise staying away from this service provider, clearly NOT looking out for you.

I had lipo and body sculpting done on my inner and outer thighs. I was a little nervous about the idea of being awake while undergoing the procedure but I have had other cosmetic procedures before but wanted something a little less invasive. I researched and determined Sono Bello was my better option and that it was affordable. I had the surgery done on Friday and was back to work on Monday. Of course I was a little sore and bruised but I was still able to work in comfort and continue normal activity. In about a month I will start the Venus Freeze treatments and I cant wait! I found the staff to be very friendly and professional and have recommended this facility to all of my friends.

During my consultation I was reassure that my pain would be mild and that I would be able to go back to work 3 days after. All a LIE. My schedule surgery was schedule for 1:30pm I was to to be there at noon. Pills were given to me and doctor was late. Surgery did not start until 3:30-4pm. Yes my surgery started with pain but once they had me turned to the back then the pain was intolerable, I cried out to stop and that it hurts so much. They continue with procedure until I collapsed. The rest of time I cried. It was the worst experience, worst than child birth ( I have three kids). I want to get the word out there that it excruciating pain and that you can't go back to work after 3 days. Advertising and consultants was all lies.

Wow sono bello is great. Immediate results. Doctors were great explained that I do not have control over my weight. It doesn't matter what I eat or don't eat i will still gain weight. It does not matter if I exercise. Walking ******* steps per day NO THANK YOU. So I eat whatever I want bc I'm not gonna let fat control me. No. No. I'm in control of my body. I can eat whenever and whatever I want. That's why I get sonno bello and lipo and cool sculpting every 3 months to trim fat anywhere on my body. And cost please my hubby is more than willing to shell out about 25k a year to keep me looking sexy‍ Counting calories and exercising is for the unfortunate people. Wow the sacrifices I put myself through to stay looking good and confident Ohhh I would post some pics but I'm getting trim up next week so maybe next time‍

This review is an update to my second update after management reached out to me after my initial review. I did receive the gift card that was supposed to be reimbursed for my gas, however, the gift card couldn't be used for gas, but instead to places like Walmart, Amazon, Starbucks etc. The end.

I had scheduled upper and lower abdomen and hips and was told minimal recovery. I am a nurse so I scheduled this during a long stretch off. I have had four kids, ruptured appendix, and a broke jaw and nothing compared to this pain during the procedure! I have went back to work but the severe sharp pain is hard to deal with. They did not do the hip area since they couldn't get me numb and after reading the reviews, I dread trying to get that money back but I can be persistent!

I was enticed by their commercial and went in for a consultation. The worst decision I ever made.
I was left with a disfigured abdomen and it end up costing me over $15,000 for my bad decision.
The before and after pictures are photo shopped. I realized when they photo shopped my pictures and placed these pictures in my chart. I requested a copy of my chart and the before and after pictures were altered.
You are better off going to the Dominican Republic or even Cuba for liposuction rather than Sono Bello.
I wouldn't send my dog there.
My abdomen was permanently disfigured by Sono Bello.
I had to take them to court and they do not want to properly compensate me from my suffering.
My marriage ended and I did not have a love life during the years that I was disfigured.
Go to a reputable cosmetic surgeon for liposuction NOT SONO BELLO! I urge that you research your doctor carefully.

So, I feel as though they didn't take much fat at all from the areas I requested, several months later my love handles hadn't changed much at all even after the swelling went down, and I hadn't gained any weight at all. I have a little flap of skin sticking out at the one of the end of the scar from the tummy tuck. I had lipo and a tummy tuck done at the same time, (no abdominal muscle repair)
Overall just dissatisfied, very minimal fat was taken during lipo. It's been 3 years since I had my surgery
I actually felt a bit of pain during the surgery as certain areas of my abdomen weren't completely numb when they were cutting my skin.

I must say overall I was better off going elsewhere, I went to soon Bello in Tacoma WA. 3 months ago, they ensure me I wouldn't feel any pain during the procedure it was very painful my body didn't take to the medicine, and they didn't have a plan B to make me feel comfortable, the doctor told me they can stop during the procedure, also when I had to urine my side nurse didn't follow procedure, she told me to just pee on myself! I was cold and felt disgusting lying in my pee and just felt miss lead and I'm not satisfied with my results please ask a lot of questions, especially about the numbing medicine it's not for everyone!

I worked there and it's a racist company, I was let got because I was the only person of color there. Yeah I finally received my surgery after asking for several times, and the director of the company did my surgery and it was the worst experience I've ever had in my life. You would think since it was the medical director I would have a good out come but no it was terrible. I would not ever recommend anyone here, go to a real surgeon. These doctors were just trained at Sonobello and they are not plastic surgeons. It's a waste of time and money. As for being an employee it was the worst job I've ever had in my life. They are prejudice, and don't care about the people that work for them and they don't care about the patients. All they want is money money money and don't care about anything else

I just had my 6 month checkup and I am delighted with the results. I had waist, abdominal upper and lower, and tummy tuck. The staff was incredible, front desk, to Tia who saw me through till the end. I had reasonable ideas about how I would look and at 6 months I am really happy. My Doctor was knowledgable about what he was doing and let me know what was a reasonable outcome. I would recommend my nurses, Dr, and front staff in Scottsdale to anyone thinking about any liposuction or tummy tuck.

The most painful experience of my life! I went to my post op and found out they don't use local anesthesia. They only "numb" the parts to be treated. I wish I had red the reviews before. The process was so painful I thought I was going to die on the table. If you have low pain tolerance don't go to this place. The worst experience ever! They give you a pill to "relax" but in my case it didn't work at all. I can not tell you enough how painful the process was. I thought I knew pain because I had breast augmentation done and tummytack and lipo before but this pain was excruciating. I was about to hold the doctors hand so he would stop. It felt like my skin was directly on a flame and a knife was slicing me while a thousand bees were stinging me. This procedure shouldn't even be allowed by law regulations.

This company is ripe off. When they're trying get your money they're so nice keep calling BUT after you have call them for follow up appointments but worst thing I didn't get my results. They told after 6 months I can come back for free if I didn't get the results I want but when I did everything they said to do after 6 months the doctor coming in talking medical talk and he couldn't go back in they're full of $#*!.Don't let the commercials fool you once they take your money it's over! Don't believe them when they say SNATCHED
