Dr. Barnes was pleasant, very informative, and honest in what I should expect with the procedure. I have always been terrified about liposuction, but Zerona seemed to be a great option since there is no surgery involved. I lost a total of 10.5 inches and am very pleased with my results. Although it says on the website (findzerona.com) that you do not have to excercise, I did so anyway and that also helped me lose weight during the two week program.
