“I had Abex done at Sono Bello Edina,MN and I'm 4 days post op and I happy with my results I'm seeing so far can't wait to see what I will look like after the swelling goes down and once I'm all healed up. Dr. Volk did my surgical procedure he did an amazing job super nice and made me super comfortable during my pre op and surgery. That night after surgery Dr. Volk called me to make sure i was doing ok and if I had any questions which was amazing for him to take that time a reach out to me!!! My nurse Anai let's just say Girl you are amazing and I'm so thankful I had an amazing nurse like you!!! Explained the whole process every step of the way and was super supportive and non judgemental... Girl you are awesome and such a rock star!!! I would recommend Sono Bello Edina to anyone who is looking to get their pre baby body back!!”

I was so disappointed in the results I never went back. I’m not sure if they even did anything, I would not recommend the procedure”

“I’m still very disappointed my $800 has not been refunded despite withdrawing from doing my procedure. I went in for a consultation last year and scheduled to undergo a procedure few months later. So I made an $800 upfront payment but, along the line I called to say I was no longer interested in continuing with my procedure but I was shocked when the nurse who attended to me said, unfortunately the money I paid upfront was non-refundable. Like, how come no one told me this at the start when I was paying the money upfront. That just sounded like a scam. I’m still waiting for my refund.”

“I had my procedure done at the end of April 2023, I had liposuction and an incision from hip to hip to cut off skin, I still needed two other liposuctions in the waist area and bra line area. For a whole month I was bleeding like crazy, had to keep going in to get drained, bleeding also through my belly button, after that I Went to the U/Minn ER. They referred me to a different doctor who I saw within two days and was in the hospital for a hematoma, he had to reopen the whole incision, get rid of that and then back to drains in me for three weeks, I felt great after that. I called Sono Bello to tell them, what happened to me, even my new doctor said I was butchered. I told them Dr. Schneider will never touch me again and I wanted my money back for the procedures I haven’t had done yet. They told me NO refund, I complained a couple of times, and someone higher up called me and said I would get my refund. I have four years to decide about suing them, I think I should of gotten a full refund for what I went through. Sono Bello wants your business and they talk a good game when they want your business, actually they’re very deceiving. Think twice about this place. I can’t be the only one who’s gone through this.”

“I would not refer this place to anyone! Why because I saw this woman by Allison and she never got back to me with the price that the charging me $20.088.46 for them to have me woke then individuals been telling me that they not as good. Also I spoke to a woman who stated she was feeling all the pain and the doctor did NOT STOP!! My thing is if you want my business you would have reached out to me and see if I was still interested. Allison didn't! I called and some gentleman told me he would have a Rachel call me and guess what she didn't! so at this time I would not even feel SAFE AT SONO BELLA WITH ANY OF THE DOCTORS BECAUSE IF THEY STAFF ATTITUDES ARE NOT PROFESSIONAL ENOUGH THEN THIS IS MEANS THAT MY LIFE WOULD NOT BE A
CONCERNED ! My bank been calling me because they are ready offered
me the LOAN BUT I AM GOOD $20.088.46 IS A LOT OF Money for liposuction, remove rolls and ABT my associates told me they paid less than $10.000 for they surgery and this place is ripping me OFF! I DID NOT LIKE Allison attitude or HER SPIRIT WHEN SHE WAS ONLY WAS WITH ME NO LONGER THAN 15 MINUTES!!

“PLEASE READ! VERY IMPORTANT!
On 2/2/2022 I pre-paid for a surgery scheduled in for May 5, 2022. I had an unforeseeable family emergency in Arizona and called to cancel my appt in April. I started requesting my refund in Nov 2022. It has been almost a year and a half now that Sono Bello has NOT refunded the $9,547.03 that I paid.
On 4/6/23 I flew back to MN and went to Sono Bello and spoke to Ali and was promised she would handle it asap.
On 5/15 I spoke to manager Peggy, who said she would pull my file and look in to it.
On 5/26 Charlotte said she would have a manager contact me.
Later that day I spoke to Rachel and she asked me to have my doctor write a note stating I was not eligible for surgery, when I refused to have my doctor falsify a letter she said she would email the area director Tera Davison.
Tera called me later that day. Tera had not heard of me or any refund I was owed but said she would get a complete refund (including my non-refundable deposit) if I would delete any bad reviews, but due to the Memorial holiday allow 7-10 days for the check.
Today is now June 16th 2023 and still NO REFUND CHECK!

Our next step is to hire an attorney! This is ridiculous. I paid the ENTIRE balance in advance of the surgery thinking this was a reputable company.”

“I would give zero stars if this was an option. We prepaid $9547. Ended up canceling the surgery and have never gotten a refund. We have been waiting to get money back for 9 months. So if you're thinking of getting anything done don't ever cancel your appointment cuz you will not get your money back. We have contacted many people up the chain of command and everyone gives us the runaround. Our next step is to go to court.”

“I feel like once you sign the dotted line and pay them, the customer service takes a serious nose dive. I also felt they sincerely misled me about the procedure. The consultant talked about how she had a family event a few days after the procedure and how she was totally fine. They also told me I wouldn’t have an issue wearing my jeans after the procedure. While I wasn’t in a lot of pain for too long, they don’t tell you how extremely uncomfortable you will be once the swelling begins and it lasts for a couple of weeks. It’s nearly impossible to find a comfortable position to sleep in due to the extreme amount of swelling. They don’t tell you about that and there is no way my jeans would have fit me that first week. The doctor did call me the night of my procedure which I thought was nice but that’s about it. Also, I had my driver all lined up and I believe it was the day before, they told me my procedure time had to be moved up so had to scramble to find someone. There is no follow up to see how you’re doing post procedure. I stumbled upon a lymphatic massage therapist who told me about the lypo foam and massage gun I should have been using this whole time. It’s alarming that Sono Bello didn’t care enough to tell me about these things that could have helped my healing and I’m 90 days post procedure. Makes me feel like they really don’t care. Last but not least, I showed up for my 90 day apt early. There were about 6 people filling out paperwork (potential clients) who showed up after me and they all were called before my apt time. I didn’t even get called back for my apt until 30 minutes after my scheduled apt time and was asking to reschedule due to the delay. While I’m satisfied with the results, I would not recommend due to the lack of support, honesty, follow up & care.”

“One morning I woke up and looked in the mirror and didn’t recognize the person looking back at me. I had gained weight over time and no diet was working it’s magic with pills or crazy diets. I had recently lost my 91 year old mother and suddenly I was no longer her caretaker. I’ll be 70 next year. now faced with a new reality of taking care of me for the first time in many years. This was going to be my year of ‘re-creation’.

I’d seen adds for Sono Bello on television many times but never imagined it could be for me. Going to the website for several weeks, I finally picked up the phone and made an appointment. I was scared but made it to my appointment anyway. My hands shook as I filled out some paperwork and bravely sat down with Rachel for my interview.

Well, that was the last time I shook. As Rachel started talking she was so kind and personable, fear left my body. I was ready for a new start. Every person I met after Rachel was just as caring and helpful that I was ready to move forward with my procedure.

Today, I am thankful and excited about my results! I now have a flat stomach and a waistline that I hadn’t for years. It’s Spring soon and I’m ready to buy new clothes. It’s my life and I’m going to “Live it Beautifully”. Thank you SonoBello!”

“The customer service was amazing and Dr Volk called me the evening of my procedure which I thought was great. They did a fairly good job of preparing you for what to expect after the procedure. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars was because the consultant I spoke with kinda set me up to have unrealistic expectations so I severely underestimated how uncomfortable I would be in regards to the swelling. It is extremely uncomfortable to sit and lay down for several days.

I stopped the pain meds after 2 days, mostly because the pain was as not significant, I was just extremely uncomfortable due to the swelling and probably didn’t get good sleep for about a week. I’m at 10 days post procedure and am feeling so much better. The swelling has significantly decreased and I can finally wear my jeans again. I’m excited for all the swelling to subside.”

Also why dont you post what your fees are in some of your advertisements?
Additionally, why cant you and your internet ad designers target people who really want your plastic surgery services.
Also, as 1 practitioner speaking to another, we both know that there are some individuals who have nothing wrong with their body, looks or health. Why dont you post an article on your website regarding this matter to prevent exploitation within the plastic surgery medical practice.

The staff at Sono Bello are very kind and attentive to the patients. They want to make sure they have all of the info.

During the surgery I remember some discomfort but I was basically asleep. I don’t remember getting home or getting into bed but I remember waking up.

Recovery is hard. Follow their directions before and after procedure. Wear the bodysuit they give you post surgery, take the arnica and take the pain pills. Rest. Drink lots of water.

I was immediately greeted by the sweetest receptionist! When Rachel called my name, I was still nervous. Within the first few minutes of my consultation, all of my nerves were gone. She was exceptionally sweet and down to earth. I could tell she really cared about me getting the results I want, and not only that, she was excited for me.

I wasn't even asked about my concerns but only to be told I gained 10lbs and suggested I look into their newest program they offered called Venus legacy.

Thank you for being genuine and caring! Anyways by the end of my consult my anxiousness turned to excitement and I couldn't wait to get started!

“I had a Tri-sculpt Ex done in June of 2021. It was terribly painful. Which, I was willing to go through to get good results. Way more painful then explained by staff. Procedure is by far way more painful then ever expected or told..
And of course you can't stop in the middle.The nurse told me I did not need to come back for my 6 month appointment because things looked good. My stomach has been lop- sided ever since. So, I decided to make an appointment to see the surgeon who did my surgery. He noticed right away and said he would do a revision. The staff told me I had to wait until they got my chart. Funny thing was, they had it for my appointment. They told me to call back in June and that they were booked until August. I called the lady who takes care of this and nobody called me back yet. I mentioned that I thought that they should be willing to fix this sooner rather than later. Also, nobody sent home proper dressings to change over incision from hip to hip and my skin started to become necrotic, so I'm also left with an ungodly dark scar from this procedure. If you are planning to do this, make sure you are well informed and do your homework. The nurse i had was also rude to me and said, "It looks great, there's more fat for them to take. BS!!. Still awaiting a response for the revision.”

I went in wanting my love handles on my back worked on and no change and no results!! During the procedure I felt immense pain while the tool they used was inserted so whatever medication I was given did not work well to keep me sedated during the procedure! I honestly wish I just went the traditional plastic surgery route and not sonobello!! Now they make you wait another six months and hope you don’t gain anything but there is some minor disfigurement from the cuts they made and I’m 3 months post surgery right now and wore the spanks for an entire month!! Anyway I don’t want to go through feeling that pain again regardless of the medication that doesn’t work well enough and now have added marks and disfigured from the incisions!

So now they are supposed to get back to us to reschedule again.

“The surgeon suggest at my pre up do not get the surgery because they don't offer what I really need which was a lyft So after my priya I was thinking on what he said and as I told them my doctor told me I should not get this type of surgery because of my high blood pressure They say the surgery is non refundable I have gave them $1400 I'm not getting that back in his loss that I had to take because my health issues I can't get the surgery”

“Ali was super knowledgeable, professional, and very reassuring during my consult! After a bad experience with another clinic, I had essentially decided that maybe having cosmetic surgery wasn’t for me; that changed today. I was given all the information I needed, all questions I had were answered, and I left feeling great about my business decision!

Ali was warm, friendly, and kind; and absolutely one of the reasons I chose to go forward! I would highly recommend anyone to visit Sono Bello Edina.”

“Although my procedure isn’t completely finished yet- I had a split surgery. The results from my upper, lower and e/x skin removal look amazing! Dr. Strand is an architect for the body, my incision scar is very low, it is easily hidden by panties or swim suit bottom. Every interaction I’ve had with the staff has been pleasant, from Charlotte at the front desk, the consult with Ali, all the nurses, and Joy, the scheduling coordinator( she may have a different title, sorry!) and of course Dr.Strand! When I was frustrated about the 2nd procedure date- Charlotte listened to my concern and followed up with Joy right away, they found a date that was accommodating to my schedule. I would recommend the Edina Sono Bello to anyone that’s ready to take the next steps in feeling better about your body, but more importantly, being confident that you’ll be in great hands.”

“I went to Sono Bello 2 years ago. I only wanted to check it out and get prices. They told me the doctor could meet with me that day and an opening was available the next Saturday for the procedures. All the office help was amazing. I am not sure I would have done the procedure if I would have had more time to think about it. However, I did go through with it. When I went to do the procedure my blood pressure was 200+/100+. They gave me a blood pressure pill and then did the procedure. I was cut from hip to hip to remove loose skin and 12 other small incisions. I missed 1 week of work and was in quite a bit of pain for at least a month and I have a pretty high tolerance for pain. IuiAnyhow, I don't feel that this procedure did any good. I weigh the same as I did before the procedure. A few of the incisions were to help back fat. No difference at this time. I told the company on my last follow up that I was very dissatisfied with my results. They said I could meet with the doctor to do more work. No thank you. It cost me over $11,000 for what I had already had done with no results. Plus, a lot of interest on the 2 credit cards I bvb had to use to pay for this procedure.Buyer beware and really take your time before you do this.!!”

“My experience with Sono Bello was a combination of good and bad but with a final outcome that leaves me happy, satisfied and thinking it was well worth it. How is that you ask? Well, when I went for my initial consult the staff were very friendly and helpful and treated me great - as they did every time I was there. During my procedure I didn't really feel a thing - the first time anyway. I had to go back to have a second one done because I wasn't satisfied with the result and they really are wonderful about making sure you're happy with the end results. But the second time, I don't know if it was because I knew what was gonna happen, scar tissue or what, but I felt everything the doctor did and I mean EVERYTHING! Even the little incision he made, I felt it. I was wide awake through the whole thing and it was very very painful. I kept thinking to myself, "omg I was so out of it the first time that I didn't remember much of anything, and this time I feel like I'm not gonna make it" - I wanted to make him stop but I toughed it out and got through it. Now I'm very happy with the end result. I just wished they would've knocked me out or given me another pill to relax me more. So there you have it - both a good and somewhat poor experience. I would recommend them though but if I could've I'd have taken something ahead of time to relax myself even though they say not to or they won't do your procedure. Good luck to anyone considering Sono Bello. You will be just fine and look mighty fine too.”

I felt like I had my best friend by my side. Her charismatic and positive energy made me feel like I had nothing to worry about. I was so anxious and nervous and I had a ton of questions. Danielle was patient and answered every one of them. Dr. Volk was direct, informative and extremely experienced. He was patient and kind and reassuring. From the moment I met him I felt and knew that I was in great and gifted hands. He even called me the night after my surgery to check on me. like after his shift, comfortable at home he reached out to make sure I was doing okay. Even on his day off when I had a question it was the same compassionate energy. Talk about above and beyond. I am truly thankful.

Anytime you visit for follow ups from the front desk staff, nurses and even the physicians greet you with a smile. I felt that I had an entire team that wanted me to love my choice in having the procedure and also shared in my excitement at the results! My physician personally called me on the evening of both my procedures to make sure everything was going well and I received in depth emails through every step of the healing process, which gave me such peace of mind! The commercials for Sono Bello are absolutely true...all staff love what they do! They never pushed me to get more done or pushed other services on me, something I greatly appreciated.

and the nurses staff were informative and gave me supplies like scar tape and more.I also was given free scar tissue reduction massage procedures! Wow.Darcy my intake person was amazing.She went the extra mile to navigate my costs and encouraged me to take action to seek my desired eye lid surgery which I did.I went and had the surgery and found out it was medically necessary and it was covered by my insurance!!This is where your staff shows care about the clients needs as a whole person not just the parts their clinic could benefit financially from!!
I believe it is the clients job to research the procedures and open up to work with the entire staff. A client needs to take initiative and seek out information each step of the way.It's a team effort!
The assistant surgical nurse was so calm and soft spoken that she helped calm my nerves the whole way through my surgery! I

I am now a little over a week out from my surgery and the results are absolutely incredible!!! I’m still swollen and it will take a few more months for me to fully recover but I’d honestly be happy if this were my final result. From having two babies my stomach was large with saggy skin. It’s now tight with no sagging skin and looks absolutely amazing! The whole process from start to finish was amazing and effortless. The nurses are so helpful and kind!

If you choose this procedure don't have it done here they charge way more than others your paying for their advertisement and the results aren't what they claim they will be, also they give you 2 Xanax to relax you which for me was debilitating I couldn't even get up to use the restroom! Was is major pain for 10 days! So going to work was out of the question!

If you are on the fence about having the procedure (excision and lipo is what I had) and you want information, go see them. There was no pressure to sign on. I got the information I wanted, talked to my husband, and a couple of weeks later scheduled the procedure. It was worth it. I had the procedure on a Thursday and was back at my full time job on the following Tuesday. I wore a dress to work that day, and got at least six compliments on it.

I just had the opportunity to look over my before and after pictures. I am stunned. I love my waist! (I couldn’t locate it before this.) I had my procedure on a Thursday, and was back at my full-time job on the following Tuesday. I wore a dress that first day back, and had at least ten people exclaim that they “love that dress!” Keep in mind that I had worn that dress at least ten times and never had a compliment on it. Here’s the thing: it wasn’t the dress. It was how I looked in the dress. And this is exactly what I wanted! I look so much better! And from a practical standpoint, I don’t get out of breath tying my shoes anymore! I never thought I’d be the person who had a fat removal procedure. I thought my husband would have a fit when I brought it up. Guess what! My husband was completely supportive and he is happy that I am happy. If you are on the fence about this, I would urge you to go to Sono Bello in Edina.

I had no idea what to expect, but I am so glad I made this decision--I feel better than I did in high school. Dr. Strand worked wonders and Elizabeth and the rest of the staff made me feel very at ease. Liposuction is not just about weight loss, but getting the shape that I never knew I had. Of course I was sore, and after a month felt pretty much back to normal. I started walking right away and I feel like that really helped my healing. The surgery alone kick started this process but I have been walking at least 5-7 miles minimum a day since and eating healthier smaller portions.

“Having been hesitant for over a year to consult with SonoBello- I contacted them after a commercial. My consult with Coleen Duke was so inspiring as I learned so much about the process That I wanted and it could be obtained. My pre op with staff kept my enthusiasm up as Dr Strand made everything make sense. Especially regarding the 3 areas I wanted work on. (My husband sat in so he too understood what I was embarking in.) I was set up for my procedure in a week. I arrived with all the requests and tips I was given at my pre op. Rn Jasmine got me ready for my procedure. I fell asleep..well half asleep as I heard the doctor throughout and felt what was being done but I wasn’t in pain, and when completed I had the maximum allowed taken off my abs and sides.
Post op was with Elizabeth RN. She gave me great info on my continued recovery. Face it you will have pain. Read up on your procedure. Recovery is amazing as the human body does fix itself - for me daily! I know this is a 6-12-14 month plus process to see final results. So now being day 7, I am up and about with minimal pain, (I was up on day 2 but did get tired quickly. ) I saw healing every day and am going back to work after 7 days. I truly am pleased as all appts were spot on and on time. The staff I worked with
Is 110% top notch! Friendly caring knowledgeable beautiful and funny ...as heck! I cannot say enough on how professional and caring they are. Charlotte is at the front desk and do sit and chat a bit with her. She is hilarious and also will have answers to calm you as you may be nervous going beyond her desk. All staff is helpful beyond belief. I missed all of my day 1 on phone calls from the doctor and the RNs because I wasn’t near my phone, But they care so much to reach out and make sure all is well. If you are wanting to make a difference in Your body, in your life, make a consult appt. and seriously know this will be an answer .... being on day 7 the before and after photos are for real!!!”

I've consistently dieted and worked out in the gym for the past 6 years but could not fully get rid of my mommy apron. I decided to get lipo in my abs, waist, and back rolls and to get the mini timmy tuck a.k.a. the e/x procedure. Some of my girlfriends at my age don't even have children and have no clue what having this mom-body is like! I was treated with the utmost courtesy from Darcy as I was given the payment options and knowledge of how the procedure would work and the downtime my body would need to heal. I was confident in their guarentee of client satisfaction and in the previous work of Dr. Volk, as I had been researching him on Realself.com and was recommended to him by a close personal friend who enjoyed envious results at the same location. My nurse Jasmine helped calm my nerves considerably the day of the procedure and Dr Volk even allows his patients to choose their own music during the procedure! I was very content with his bedside manner and he even promptly called the evening of the procedure to ensure of my well- being!

I am so pleased with my results! I actually have a shape again!
But an unexpected result sureprised me....
I can breathe better! Maybe because my diaphragm can move again...?
The experience was totally worth it and everyone from the moment i arrive for my consultation was so positive.
There was absolutely no pressure to make a decision right away, but im so glad i did!

“From the receptionist Charlotte to the consultant... they were so warm and welcoming and as much as i was nervous...i found myself smiling. The consultation was great. Darcy is just great!! Very warm, friendly and genuinely kind. On my day of surgery....i gotta say it was a great experience. My nurse Danielle was cool...they even asked me what my favorite artist was....soon i got lost in the sultry tunes of John Legend and I was so relaxed that i fell asleep. I could hear Danielle's beautiful voice singing along....and her gentle reassurances...I am so glad i made this decision. The only uncomfortable part for me was the pictures...but they made it bearable.”

Her being so knowledgeable as well as all the research I’ve already done I was extremely happy to finally make myself happy and do something I’ve wanted to do for a long time. From the front desk staff and Charlotte, Darcy and my wonderful nurse and doctor, this was such incredible place to get it done.

“The staff was great. I was disappointed that my 1st appointment I waited an hour. Then on the day of my procedure I received a call at 6:30 am asking me to come in right away as they had a cancellation. My original time was 9:00. I told them I would take a shower and get on the road. I was just about to leave and received another call saying the 1st appointment just came late and asked that I now not come until 9:30. That 2nd call should have never been made to me. It is nerve wrecking enough going through some thing like this that I have never done only to be jerked around the day of. Also I did not feel like I was given the true information in regards to recovery. I was made to feel like it would be fine to go back to work on Monday when my procedure was Thursday. I was not in any shape to return to work that soon. I would not recommend anyone returning that soon after lipo on your upper and lower stomach along with your waist. I wasn't even off my pain medicine until the following Friday. I am only 12 days post op and still very swollen and uncomfortable so I cannot give a review on my final result yet. At this point I cannot honestly say I would do it again. I felt like I did a lot of research but I was not prepared for the amount of swelling that came along with this. I look and feel 9 months pregnant and I was told my swelling would not make me any bigger than I was before the procedure. That obviously is not true. I was 125lbs with a BMI of 25 at 4'11 the day of my procedure.”

“I saw an ad for Sono Bella on television and called them. I called and talked to them and set up a appointment. I was totally impressed with the consultation appointment as was my fiancee. He was totally supportive of my decision and has been with me every step of the way. I was never made to feel ashamed or embarrassed about the way I had let my body get so out of shape. Even taking the before pictures ! We set up the surgery appointment and talked to the doctor. I was very impressed with him.Very through with what he would do and how he would do it.
Surgery day came and everything went as I was told it would. No complications. We stayed at a hotel that night and the next. I was totally shocked with the calls I received to see how I was doing!! Even calls from dr. giving me his home number if I had any problems. So far my recovery has been by the book. My appointments are great.I am to have my month check-up in a couple of days and I am soooo impressed with the way I feel and look....I have lost over 70 lbs. And went from size 20 women's to a misses 12.
Also I have enjoyed the text's telling me how I should be feeling and they hit it on the nose every time!!!
I am anxiously waiting to see the end results . I cannot say enough GOOD things and Sono Bello

“The overall experience was quite an adventure. I did not do my due diligence in reviewing the process beforehand and was not prepared with the right questions at the pre-op appointment. I had 7 areas done. That may have contributed to the excruciating pain towards the end of the procedure. I am assuming the local anesthetic was wearing off as the doctor got to my last areas. Also, I have side effects to the anxiety pills they offered prior to the surgery and they did not have the drug I preferred. I was given 2 Xanax, which I'd never had before. Shortly after leaving the facility I had a serious reaction and I ended up in the hospital the next night for observation in case it was a TIA. There was no evidence of a TIA so we are putting the blame on the Xanax. I suggest the facility, at the pre-op appointment, discuss the anxiety drugs to be offered so workarounds can be provided. I am rating my overall experience as a "3" at this time because I am only 2 weeks into recovery. I am seeing positive results but the following months will tell.”

“I still have a lot of what I hope is swelling which I didn't anticipate. The description of the recovery and results was no where near accurate. It sounded like with the laser assistance that in a week or 10 days I'd be 90% done with recovery. Although I didn't use any pain medications this has been pretty painful and has been a very negative affect on my body. Very difficult to do much of anything for 18 days with all the pressure, swelling, discomfort/pain and numbness in the areas treated. Seems like a lot of specifics of the recovery were left out to make the sale. I Hope the end results are positive.”

“I had liposuction done at Sono Bello and I feel like I just threw my money away. First off, they told me that I would be able to go back to work after 2 days. The Procedure left me with such extreme pain that I wasnt able to go back to work for weeks. Second, the results were basically nothing. They only took out a couple pounds and they did not follow up with me about mainting the weight loss and if I was having any health problems related to the procedure. I do not recommend this place to anyone. Youre money would be better spent at other places or even just going to the gym.”

“I am still only 3 weeks post op for my second procedure, so time will tell with my total results. However, as of now I am extremely please with my experience! I had a Tri-Sculpt EX, upper and lower abs, inner thighs, hips and knees done. I am on a journey to lose 150 pounds and had lost 75 pounds when I had my procedures. It was just the boost that I needed to keep going on my journey of whole life health! Post procedures, I am down 85 pounds and still have quite a bit of swelling in my legs. I now have an hour glass shape and am able to fit into clothes that I haven't been able to wear for over 15 years! Plus, it seems to have kicked off my metabolism which makes it easier to keep working towards my overall weight loss goals.
The staff is super helpful and friendly. I loved how they customized the procedures to my overall needs! The weekly emails, calls and tips helped me to navigate all of the symptoms that popped up post procedure, which put me at ease. I would HIGHLY recommend this team for your contouring needs! I would definitely go back, after I lose the rest of my weight, if needed!
The only thing that wasn't ideal was the sales process, but I HATE to be sold. I came in having done my homework (and having compared other options), so I knew what I wanted and how much I was willing to invest in this process. Because I have high BMI the price was way higher than what was advertised online. Also, they said my weight was higher and my height was shorter than when I had gone to my MD earlier in the week. So, I felt that wasn't accurate and was pushing me into a higher BMI category. However, when I said I would probably wait since I have been losing 10 pounds per month, they told me I would miss out on the sale so it would end up being more. In the end, we were able to work out a price that got me to my target investment range (1/2 of what the price started at) and I was able to get scheduled for a procedure the following week. I would have rated this experience a 5 if the sales process didn't feel so ""used car sales"" like.
Thank you for helping make a HUGE difference in my life, Sono Bello!”

So, I felt that wasn't accurate and was pushing me into a higher BMI category. However, when I said I would probably wait since I have been losing 10 pounds per month, they told me I would miss out on the sale so it would end up being more. In the end, we were able to work out a price that got me to my target investment range (1/2 of what the price started at) and I was able to get scheduled for a procedure the following week. I would have rated this experience a 5 if the sales process didn't feel so ""used car sales"" like.
Thank you for helping make a HUGE difference in my life, Sono Bello!”

“I had the TriSculpt E/X procedure. It has been about 2 1/2 weeks since my procedure and I am about 75% healed in my recovery process. The surgeon did an amazing job, I will say! Once I am 100% healed, I know that I will love my new look even more. To be completely honest, the recovery process is painful! However, if I would have been able to tolerate the pain meds, I probably wouldn't have experienced so much pain and discomfort, but I was unable to take the pain meds that the surgeon prescribed, so the surgeon had to put me on a less potent pain med and that pain med really only took the edge off. So with that being said, I do not want to discourage anyone from getting this procedure done, because it definitely has amazing results, but I just want to be up front and honest with the recovery process. Just keep in mind, if you can tolerate the pain meds, then you will most likely have a better, more tolerable recovery, than I did. Thank you Sono Bello for the amazing results that I couldn't achieve on my own :-) ”

“I am still only 3 weeks post op for my second procedure, so time will tell with my total results. However, as of now I am extremely please with my experience! I had a Tri-Sculpt EX, upper and lower abs, inner thighs, hips and knees done. I am on a journey to lose 150 pounds and had lost 75 pounds when I had my procedures. It was just the boost that I needed to keep going on my journey of whole life health! Post procedures, I am down 85 pounds and still have quite a bit of swelling in my legs. I now have an hour glass shape and am able to fit into clothes that I haven't been able to wear for over 15 years! Plus, it seems to have kicked off my metabolism which makes it easier to keep working towards my overall weight loss goals.

The staff is super helpful and friendly. I loved how they customized the procedures to my overall needs! The weekly emails, calls and tips helped me to navigate all of the symptoms that popped up post procedure, which put me at ease. I would HIGHLY recommend this team for your contouring needs! I would definitely go back, after I lose the rest of my weight, if needed!

The only thing that wasn't ideal was the sales process, but I HATE to be sold. I came in having done my homework (and having compared other options), so I knew what I wanted and how much I was willing to invest in this process. Because I have high BMI the price was way higher than what was advertised online. Also, they said my weight was higher and my height was shorter than when I had gone to my MD earlier in the week.

“I have been considering liposuction for quite some time so I went to a few different consults and the worst by far was Sono Bello in Edina. The staff was nice enough but here were the red flags.
1.) I did not actually meet with the surgeon who would be preforming my liposuction. Instead, I met with a sales consultant who is NOT qualified to discuss the procedure and what would be best for my body type. She promised me areas they could treat that other surgeons I met with said wouldn’t be possible. Because where she said I had fat (“any area you can pinch, you have fat that can be liposuctioned”) other surgeons said we’re muscle. But she wouldn’t know this because she is not a surgeon.
2.) There were books in the waiting room with before and after pics that were performed at other locations, but when I asked to see pics from the surgeon who would be performing my procedure, she had none to show me of the body areas I wanted to treat.
3.) When I asked her what the risks involved were, she said that since it would be done under local anesthesia and not general anesthesia, there really would be no risks. ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? There are ALWAYS risks involved with ANY procedure!
4.) There was a special promotion that offered 1 free body area if I treat 3 or more. The discount was good for one month. That seemed like high pressure to make a decision. I’m not looking for the best “deal”. I’m looking for the best surgeon and level of care. Another surgeon I saw had one price with no discount, and it was good for 1 year which made me feel way better! It offered a cooling down period to make a decision. And ironically enough, it was cheaper than Sono Bello with their special discount. But the other surgeon I actually got to meet with and spend a considerable amount of time with who is a highly accredited plastic surgeon.
5.) And finally, the reviews! People please, please read the reviews! There are hundreds on several different sites with terrible reviews! Bad results, zero follow up or aftercare when things went wrong, verbal and physical abuse from the surgeons....the list goes on and on.

I did not and would never get my liposuction done at Sono Bello. If I could give it no stars I wouldn’t. Here is my advice to anyone who reads this: if you can’t meet with the surgeon during your consult, and they tell you there are no risks, don’t walk, RUN to the nearest exit and get the hell out of there!! Stay away from Sono Bello!!!!”

“I can only speak on the facility, customer service and pricing aspect on this business.

I had a 12:00 pm scheduled. This business is in a big building with multiple businesses inside so I would give yourself extra time to park and find the suite. I entered the office at about 12:05 pm and waited until 12:25 pm to be seen. Normally, this wouldn't be a big deal except I was on my lunch. The front staff are friendly and the office is very clean. The office looks small in the front but once you enter the back, there's a lot of different offices.

The lady who did my initial consultation was very bubbly and very friendly. I enjoyed hearing about the one day fat removal procedure, how it works, the results etc. She was really personable, friendly, and took time to hear what I've tried to get to where I am now. I really appreciated how genuine she was.

The part that surprised me was the pricing. On the website, they advertise 1395/area. If you are looking to get your whole abdomen done, you are probably looking at your upper (one area), lower (second area), and waist (third area) performed. I'm giving this business a 3 star because I don't like the misinformation - the 1395 is based on your BMI (lowest range). The BMI (which is just your height and weight) determines the price range of an area - from 1395 - 2900+. I feel this information should be accessed prior to the appointment. I initially thought I was looking around a 3k price range but walked out with a quote for 10k+. There's a 2k surgeon fee on top of the areas you'd like treated.”

“I went in for a consult merely to get an idea of what a cost would be like to rid myself of the problem areas. From the first appointment, I was greeted by a friendly staff and consultant, Casi. She was patient with me and answered all of my very skeptical questions. I am 40 years old and suffered with hashimotos thyroid disease for many years and struggled with my weight since I was a young adult. I decided to move forward with the procedure. I had Lipo with sculpting. I met the surgeon who was also extremely informative and I also spent time researching his clinical history because well... it's important. My surgery date came and again the staff was amazing, kept me informed and made sure all things were done per protocol. My surgery was not painful. I felt very well taken of through the procedure. The surgeon called me a few hours later to be sure all was ok and asked if there were any questions. I got another call a couple of days later again with alot of time for questions which was needed. My 1 week follow up was also great and again the staff was spectacular! I now have a few months for total recovery and quite honestly I was absolutely taken away with the results I got from this experience this far. I would do this again and recommend them to family and friends looking for a good experience start to finish!”

For as long as I can remember I’ve always had to cover up my midsection using girdles, waist trainers, body shapers, waist-high pants and even plastic wrap! Everytime I got dressed my eyes automatically laser-focused on my waist and midsection area and I was ALWAYS discouraged…I thought about Sono bello back in 2012 but found a company that offered zerona treatments for cheaper so I went with that. BAD IDEA. Not only was it a WASTE of money but it was a waste of time, gas (12 treatments over the course of 3 months!), and hope. I saw no difference and was back discouraged and wrapping my midsection with plastic…After more years and more discouraging “quick fixes” I finally did it and went to Sono bello. Long story short, I don’t have to worry about plastic wrap or girdles again! After getting my waist and bra rolls done, at not even a week post-op, I finally had a waist! I did have one complaint, though: how am I supposed to go from years of no waist (shape) to having one darn near overnight?? I’m glad I made the decision to get this procedure, and the staff is genuine at this location. My nurse was the best. She made me very comfortable during the procedure.

Dr. Strand, and his entire staff are simply the best. I will follow up in 3 months.”

Had a great experience at Minneapolis Sono Bello. I researched and knew mostly what to expect with the procedure that I had, and everything went very well. Once you get through the first week, it gets easier every day. Extremely happy with my results and ready to continue a healthy lifestyle of living. Thank you!!”

“It's officially been 6 weeks since my surgery and I'm absolutely loving my body again and the results that I'm seeing every day!! I've went shopping and feel so confident in my clothes. My coworkers have notice that I've lost weight and look more tone and I wear scrubs at work. I did post pics of myself at the 6 week mark. I did do a short 20 min pilates workout today. It felt really good to work out again. I just have to keep reminding myself to ease back into my workouts to avoid injuries or set backs. I also get to wear the garment on an as needed basis but they did say the more I wear it the better my results will be. To be honest, I like wearing the the garment, its very comfortable. I will continue to wear it until it's no longer beneficial. I hope everyone that's reading this is doing well and as always thanks for your time and thanks for reading.”

I had four rolls on my back and afterwards I still have four rolls. Also, I look a little lopsided. For the money they charged me, I should look like a supermodel, hardly anyone notices a difference. I would not even mention that I went to sonobello to people because don't want to be judged for wasting money.”

“This place is a business that feeds off of you and leaves you high and dry. They say they can help you but won't tell you what's better for your situation. I went to 3 other plastic surgeons and they all dislike sonobello. They get you in with instant financing and then leave you with horrible results. You will still have fat on your body or less than ok results. Your money will go a lot longer somewhere else who cares how you feel about yourself. The place feels colder and unwelcoming when you're in the liposuction procedure. It hurts and feels violent at times. Yes you are awake and feel the numbing shots and the pressure of the cannula. The before and after pictures of my stomach were the same. When I complained they gave me 8 sessions of skin tightening which just feels like a hot metal ironing that never did anything for my skin. I called again twice and left a message for Joy and never received a call. I waited until now to post something to see if my area would improve but nope. I have met great docs who has done great miracles. 0 stars. I urge you to find other dissatisfied sonobello clients. I am sure there are a lot.”

“I have waited until my 6 month post op to write this review. I am a very health minded/athletic 45 year old. I went to sonobello to help lose stubborn fat on my middle section and thighs (inner &outer) I did not look bad just needed a little extra help.
As of today I still weigh the same as I did pre- op and my pants size is still the same. I work out regularly and eat healthy and this procedure has done nothing for me except waste my hard earned money. The staff are nice and always positive of results (even if there are none), they have to be. It will be interesting to hear the feedback at my 6 month check, since nothing has changed and I'm done with swelling.
I am very disappointed, I would not recommend especially to those that do not have money to waste.
P.s.-fixing your 'banana roll' is not fat being taken out of your butt (I went there to lose fat, not reassign it), they push fat into your butt. This was never explained to me. I now have issues with my tailbone and cannot sit without pain. Also, keep track of your own measurements from each follow up visit.”

It is almost a year later, and I am still puffy.Dr. Volk spent very little time with me. Once the procedure was complete, he turns his patients over to his staff, who have zero follow through. I am left with lumps and bumps, and almost zero visual results, even though they claim they did the max. per state guidelines. I was set up for two procedure days, so 10 pounds could be removed each time ( total of 20 pounds).

I'm still healing and look forward to seeing my healed results- will definitely tell others! I can say the staff is amazing that I had the pleasure working with! Rebecca was the first person I met with and she is very knowledgeable and personable! Answered all my questions and concerns. Very warm, welcoming- she gave you honest answers and was efficient with my time.The surgical team Dr. Strand, Jill and Debbie were equally enjoyable to work with. I felt like they took the time to listen to my worries/ issues and were very helpful in their responses. Everyone was notably positive friendly and upbeat throughout all encounters! One encounter worth noting: I was running late to a post op appointment- the time was already late on a work day, I was unsure if they would be able to see me and was willing to reschedule- receptionist transferred me to nurse Debbie to see if I could still be seen. Knowing what it's like to a never ending workday as a nurse, I was so impressed with her comments- she listened to my explanation and stated it was no problem, she was more concerned that I might have to wait a bit, and she just wanted me to travel safely and she would see me when I got there! I immediately was impressed with her attitude and care for her patients! :) p.s Dr. Strand is a genuine caring surgeon and a pretty funny guy! Refreshing after working with many surgeons!”

The before, during and after care was excellent! I truly appreciated the coaching on the front end of the procedure and the aftercare follow-up was wonderful. Each week I received an email that stated what I should be experiencing at that stage of the recovery process. It was extremely accurate! My boyfriend and my daughters were not exactly supportive of my decision at first. After I received the procedure, my boyfriend said, "I am glad that you made an investment in your future health! You look HOT! "Well, "HOT" wasn't what I was aiming for. I just wanted to be able to bend over with ease. My daughters both said, "Mom, you look awesome. I can't believe how much energy you have!"

“Sonobello has far exceeded my expectations
From the moment I explored the idea of body sculpting, Sonobello has far exceeded my expectations in more than one area. I started with Sonobellos web-site, which was easy to maneuver and answered all my preliminary questions. When i made the decision to get started within one week I was in their office setting up my exciting next chapter of my life with the figure I've always wanted, but been unable to achieve on my own. The moment i walked through the door of Sonobello, I was greeted by friendly, outgoing, accommodating staff that had my best interest at heart. This has been my experience EVERY visit. I not only would give Sonobello a Five star rating, I would go as far as my reputation on endorsing Sonobello to all that are thinking of changing their life for the positive.”

“Dr. Hatfield was awesome!!!
I have tried exercising to get rid of my tire around my waistline and would lose weight but could not get my waistline fat to go away. I made an appointment at Sonobello in Minneapolis and scheduled the liposuction procedure immediately. After the procedure, I went home with very little discomfort and a couple of days later I was amazed at how I felt. The results have been unbelievable! I am so happy I did this procedure. In 2 weeks after the procedure, I lost 3 inches under the breasts, 4 inches from my waistline and 2 across my hips! I lost a total of 5 pounds as well. The body I had when I was in my 20's is coming back - I love the results. If this is the results I have in 2 weeks - can't wait to see how I look in 3 months.. I would recommend to anyone thinking about feeling good again about their body to do this procedure. Dr. Hatfield was awesome!!! Thank you Sonobello for making me look and feel great again...”

She made sure I was comfortable and went over all the post op instructions. The post-op days weren't bad at all, for me, taking the tape off was the worst.. really! I followed instructions, tried to walked every 10 minutes and really felt I had a great recovery of only 3 days, back to work on the 4th day. 10 days later, with 8 inches gone (and there still is swelling), I am so looking forward to getting in the "dreaded" swimsuit this summer and rockin it!! No more hiding behind the beach towel for me :)”

“Overall my experience was very good. I was awake and relaxed during the initial procedure and the staff was very thorough in what to expect. Never was the pain unbearable and felt little during the actual procedure. I was amazed to be able to see the actual amount removed. I have a very high tolerance for pain though so to me it was only moderate considered the results I'm already seeing. My result was 3lbs removed and since I have goals to reach, this was a great way to get there. I did experience a couple days of difficulty in wanting to move much but kept to a light 10 minute walk as suggested to keep blood flow and heal faster. The staff has been great and Julie always made my visits enjoyable in conversation. Dr. Volk did an amazing job!!”

I was first annoyed by this incodent, then I realized God only showed me what they were about! little did they know, I had saved money for this service, I had to laugh because I cant trust a company like this, now I will happily pay some worthy company...thank Sono Bello for showing your prejidice up front!!!!

The road to recovery was a bit longer than I had intisipated but I have followed all the guidelines as I wants to maximize my results as much as possible. I am 5 months post op and I continue to see the results. The problem areas that I have hated and had for as long as I can remember her better and better with every week that passes. I would not expect to receive successful results if you are not planning on maintaining a fairly healthy lifestyle as you will sabotage your procedure.

“I’m 45 years old, 5`4, 135 lbs. I work out everyday and eat pretty healthy but I’ve always had the belly bulge. I’ve been wanting a more defined stomach and after trying many things I decided Sono Bello might be my answer. I obtained quotes from other places and although Sono Bello was about $1000 more than my other quotes, I felt more comfortable going with someone who performs lipo on a regular basis.
I had a consultation on 9/25/2015 and it was decided I needed three areas: upper abs, lower abs, and waist. I signed up for the Sono Bello TriSculpt laser assisted liposuction process. The cost of the surgery is based on your BMI. For me, each area was $1295, then there is a surgical fee of $1995. I qualified for the Sept special so received $250 off and if you pay up front or use their financing you can get $1000 off. My cost for the surgery was $4742.64. Surgery was scheduled for the next day, 9/26/2015 with Dr. Volk. I was given prescriptions to pick up the following medications and was instructed to bring them to my surgery appointment:
- Alparazolam, taken for anxiety
- Cephalexin, antibiotic
- Ondansetron, taken for nausea
- Oxycodone, pain relief
I was also supplied with Arnicare skin care cream to apply to the skin after surgery (not the incision points). They also gave me Boiron Arnicare homeopathic medicine to take three times a day for a couple of weeks.
Surgery was scheduled for 10 and I was required to be there at 9. They gave me pregnancy test, gave me the drugs listed above, along with a shot of Demerol. Then the doctor came in to “mark me up.” When I disrobed, I broke out into hives on my chest– the dr was concerned it might have been an allergic reaction. No – I explained when I’m nervous my chest breaks out. Ha.
I had a wait a bit for the surgery to get started as they wanted the drugs to kick in. I believe the surgery started around 10:20am. They asked what type of music I wanted to listen to, gave me some eye goggles, then the doctor proceeded with making the incisions for the pain medications.
This experience was not bad, I really didn’t feel much. Through the 1.5 hrs of surgery, I only felt pain 1-2 times when he was working near my hip bone. Some people say they fall asleep during surgery or they feel that they are “high” or “drunk.” I didn’t feel or experience any of this. I may have been a little “calm” but that was really it. I definitely knew what was going on at all times.
After surgery, the nurse has the wonderful job of trying to squeeze you into a compression garment and bandaging you up. This is not fun and a little embarassing but Jess the nurse tried to make light of things. A very tight binder was also put on. Special instructions are given to your pick up driver, who must also sign you out (at one point I thought about hiding this surgery from everyone and checking into a hotel – I don’t think a taxi driver would have signed me out…)
Jess the nurse put me into a wheelchair and wheeled me out to our vehicle. The two hour trip home was a little uncomfortable, just hard to sit up straight. As soon as I got home, I immediately went to bed. Later that night I asked my husband to help me change the bandages. This was NOT fun. Taking off the compression garment was not an easy task, it is SO tight. And my bandages were full of blood. I immediately got light headed. I usually have a stomach of steel and am not nauseous at the sight of blood, but this was a really weird feeling. Thank goodness my husband helped me – he got me a bag of ice to put on my head while he tried to figure out how to change my bandages. Sono Bello suggested using maxi pads but of course my husband had a hard time figuring out how to use / position them and he was kinda freaked out by it but we got it done then had to tried to squeeze myself back into the compression garment.
The next day I was 100% bed bound. I just couldn’t move, my stomach muscles hurt so bad. We changed out the bandages again and I got sick to my stomach, and vomited. The only times I were up was to use the bathroom. And that was a challenge too as you just don’t think you have to use muscles to urinate, but you do. I hurt SOOOO bad. I was completely black and blue, especially in my pelvic region – even my vagina was swollen and black.
On Monday, I took a sick day and stayed the whole day in bed. Still a lot of pain and my bandages had quite a bit of drainage. On Tuesday, I still couldn’t image going into to work so stayed home and stayed the whole day in bed. I worked the rest of the week and it was HORRIBLE. My drive is about 30 minutes and the worst part is climbing in and out of a vehicle and sitting. Fortunately I’m on my feet most of the day because sitting just doesn’t work. The compression garment is extremely uncomfortable and the hooks and zippers are digging into my sides.
I haven’t told anyone at work about my surgery but everyone is noticing I’m not right. It hurts to stand up straight, it feels like my skin is ripping and tight. My walk is definitely slower and I can’t bend down to pick up anything. It’s pretty difficult to hide these types of things.
A week after the surgery I was still very, very black, blue, green and yellow with bruises. Every part of my back, sides, and stomach hurt. My pelvic area also was still very sore. During my one week follow up, the nurse seemed a little concerned with my incision points as she didn’t think they were healing very well. Because of that she brought in Dr Volk to review. Typically, you don’t get to see the Dr. after surgery, it’s just the nurses but since she had a concern he took a look. Dr Volk said my healing is a little slower than normal but felt I was still on the right track. Apparently I’m in the 9% of patients who have extreme pain after surgery and slow healing. Figures.
At my appointment they provided me bioCorneum topical scar treatment. I’ve already seen an improvement and I’ve only used it 2 days.
It has now been two weeks since the surgery and what ride it has been. I’m still extremely uncomfortable, especially when sitting up. My pelvic region is very swollen which is preventing me from bending. My second stage of compression garment came in and it has been a HUGE relief. Although it is extremely uncomfortable getting it on, when it is on it doesn’t feel bad. There are no hooks or zippers like the first one. The garment was about $80, it is Isavela. My model number I BS04-MD-BL.
If you are considering lipo, here are some tips or things you might want to get:
- Maxi pads and bandage tape for covering the wounds
- Step stool for climbing into bed
- Puke bucket / pail handy in bed and for when changing garments
- Arnicare skin cream. They provided me one tube, which I used up pretty fast. I purchased another tube at Walmart for $7.99
- Plenty of water at your bed stand
- Watch your diet – stay away from Salt.
Attached are pictures on the day of the surgery and two weeks later. You can tell from my pictures how tight the first compression garment was. I’ve still got a long ways to go but I’m happy my stomach is much flatter than it was. Do I think it was worth it? I don’t know yet. I’ve been so miserable, I had no idea I was going to be in this much pain. I’ll update you as my journey to getting athletic abs continues!”

I had my consultation with Casi, it was a straight forward conversation about my goals and candid feedback on realistic expectations. There was NO sales pitch. This procedure was my choice what I did and how much I did was up to me. Here is what we can/cannot do was the talk I had with Casi. I went in wanting my arms done as that was my area that bothered me most. I ended up doing abdominal, arms and back. I am thrilled with my results it met the expectations as outlined. I have more work to do but Sono Bello helped me get closer and motivate me. I still have that I love my arms feeling everyday.
I read reviews before I went in and they can scare you to death. My advice is, know yourself. If you have a low pain tolerance, your feelings about the procedure will reflect that. I have a very high pain tolerance. I knew I would be uncomfortable but knew I had a high tolerance for pain which means for me this was not a terribly painful procedure for me. I am sure Brooke and Dr. Volk could say I cared more about the music but there are “zinger” moments during the procedure in those sensitive areas but again expected as they tell you where it will hurt the most. Without a doubt I followed the discharge instructions to a tee. Including stopping the prescription meds as soon as possible (3 days) and moved to over the counter meds (Tylenol) during the day and 1/2 of a prescription med to sleep. Wear the garments for the full three months, buy spares if you can - best thing for results! For the post op time walk and follow the nutritional advise sent to you. Have a plan, get rid of the junk and east clean! The weekly notes sent are great, I am a customer service and a nudge to walk and keep up the good habits.
Post op calls with Lisa kept me calm when I wasn’t and she kept me calm with good advice and showing me the before pictures to motivate me. Julie, I have driven you crazy with re-schedules due to distance. That said, I have fulfilled my promise of sharing my experience that I did want to do at 6-months because the readers really want to hear from us later.
Would I do it again? Yes. Would I have a better Plan A, B and C when the real world gets in the way of your personal goals? Yes! The reality is, I wore short sleeves this summer and wore a bathing suit in public. I am down three sizes and negative self-talk is leaving my life. All of this is a combination of the procedure and personal goals.
Thank you Sono Bello for the bump I needed for my goals.”

After my consultation with Casi, I knew I was going to go through with the procedure. Casi was so kind and reassuring. This is exactly what I needed. Dr Hatfield performed the procedure and I would highly recommend her. The procedure itself was a little nerve racking, but they give you good meds and atmosphere was very relaxing.

The surgeon and his team were friendly, professional, and made good conversation with me during the procedure as I didnt need to be put to sleep, only sedated. The one week follow up came quickly. Everything was moving along well, so it was just nice to catch up and say hi to everyone at the office. Ive had one visit since, and everything is moving along great.

“I have (or should I say had) a problem with my thighs. Despite 2 years of working out regularly and eating right as well as multiple attempts at non-surgical laser options I finally decided nothing else was going to work. So I read many reviews and came across Sono Bello. I was very apprehensive but after meeting with Casi for a consultation I couldn't book my surgery fast enough. The morning of the procedure I was nervous. Not a fan of needles or pain. Honestly Dr. Volk placed my IV and I didn't even feel it. The nurse game me a quick shot in my thigh which I barely felt and when they infused the lidocaine to help numb things up I was afraid I would feel that, but I barely felt anything the entire time. I thought I would want to be distracted but the time went by so quickly and we were listening to music and it was a very positive and relaxing experience. I am only a little over a week out but feel great. I didn't require any pain meds besides some tylenol the first day. I was a little sore if I walked fast the first 3 days but went to work normally after that. I am a little over a week out and there is still swelling there but it's amazing to walk and not have my thighs touch! It really was a great experience and everyone was so nice and friendly. I'm very happy to have found them.”

“I know when I went searching for reviews before going in, all I wanted to know was "Did you see results? And how much of a result did you see?" Because when you go in, they will tell you the truth. Results do in fact vary per the individual. But I can tell you MY experience.
I am 4 wks post op 1st procedure and 3 wks post op on the 2nd. I am still swollen and yet I am AMAZED. I'd be happy with where I'm at now even if I wasn't still swollen. So, you can imagine how ecstatic I'll be in another month.
I also read a lot of glowing reviews about the staff when doing my own research for Sono Bello. When you walk in the Edina location, the first thing you see is a couple of gorgeous women behind the front desk. Little intimidating. Until you meet Julie. She could not have been sweeter, more welcoming, or LESS intimidating.
All the nursing staff was awesome to say the least. The RN on staff, Lisa, is simply the bomb. Answered any and all my goofy questions at the end of her very long days.

“In the past few years as I aged into my 50s, I found that despite exercising regularly and being careful with my diet, that I developed excess belly fat and “love handles”. I attempted to get rid of this excess fat by increasing my workouts and further restricting my diet. That worked, but I found it completely unsustainable; I was spending much of my free time exercising, and I always felt like I was starving. As soon as I returned to a normal workout regimen (one hour, five times per week) and a normal diet, the fat would slowly build back on.
This prompted me to look into laser lipo as a way to get rid of the nuisance fat. I wasn’t searching for a “magic bullet” for weight loss, but rather a way to clean up bulky areas that I was not able to maintain through reasonable effort on my own. I also wanted to be able to wear better fitting clothes without appearing like a sausage that was pinched in the middle.
After some research I decided to go in to Sono Bello for a consultation. I found the office very clean and modern, and the staff friendly and professional. During the consultation, I was informed on what they could and could not do as well as the risks and costs involved, so that I was able to make an informed decision as to whether to proceed.
i decided to have my chest, abdomen, and sides done. Dr. Flagg was my surgeon; he had a very easy manner and it was obvious that he knew exactly was he was doing. As part of his exam he pointed out what he saw as my problem areas and how he was going to proceed, and he set realistic expectation for my results. As an aside, I’d like to point out that, at no time did anyone on the staff lead me into having unrealistic expectations and that this was cure-all.
The surgery for me was uneventful. I had my procedure done on a Saturday; my surgical sites stopped draining by Monday morning, and I returned to work on Tuesday. There was an expected level of bruising that peaked about 4 days after the procedure, and some tenderness that lasted for a few days, but that was manageable with Tylenol. At first it was tough to see the results due to puffiness, but within a couple weeks I was noticeably thinner around my waist and chest.
Over the months my treated areas healed nicely, and there was no scarring at the entry points., I was pleased to see the bulkiness was removed from my waist and chest and that things had tightened and flattened.
At my 6 month checkup, I decided to have an additional area, the “bra roll” on my back done. I am still healing from that, but it is healing well. Again, I had very little post-op pain and bruising and drained from the surgical sites for only one day. I had this surgery on Friday was able to return to work on Monday.
When I went in for this additional procedure, I was pleased to see that Dr. Flagg had changed some of his operating room protocols, because that indicated to me that the medical staff is keeping up on the latest procedures in order to improve outcomes. I also found out that Dr. Flagg had moved (back) to Chicago, but that he was flying to Minneapolis regularly to ensure that his existing active patients continued to receive his care. It was good to see such professional dedication to his patients.
I would like to point out that no invasive medical intervention is without risk, and you should know how your body reacts to injury before deciding to take on a surgical solution. if you are in poor or questionable health, react poorly to injury, have a low pain threshold, or expect that this is a quick weight loss solution, this may not be for you; it,isn’t for everyone. But I am in good general health, I exercise regularly, and my body recovers well when injured, so I healed quickly and am extremely pleased with my results. This is in no small part due to the professionalism and expertise of the staff at Sono Bello.”

“It took me almost a year to decide have liposuction on my waist, upper, and lower abdomen. After having my consultation and meeting my team, I was convinced this was the right option for me. The entire staff made me feel very comfortable and provided me with thorough information to not only make the best decision, but also to have realistic expectations for the procedure and results. The team on the day of my procedure, Dr Saxon (surgeon), Ben (PA), and Kimmy (nurse) made every effort to make sure I was completely comfortable and that I would have the best possible outcome. Dr Saxon took the extra time to ensure not only comfort, but also an excellent result. He even called me the night of my procedure and the next day to check in. While my results may not be typical, I will divulge that 4 days post procedure, I tried on a whole section of my closet that was designated to be donated because the clothes no longer fit. Not only did the zippers zip again, but the clothes looked great on my new figure. There are no words that can describe the joy and renewed self confidence I felt at that moment. This was absolutely a worthwhile investment in myself that I would not hesitate to do again”

I would like to see the Dr. for every follow up, but typically one only sees the nurse unless you are having issues that need to be addressed by the Dr. That being said I felt like if I had specific needs I needed to address with him he did share his no. and one could get ahold of him at any time.”

“am 44 years old, and have struggled with the dreaded muffin top my entire life. I had lost over 40 pounds, and have kept it off, but I could not get rid of the muffin top. Crunches, ab exercises, low carb diet, trainers, you name it. I've tried it. Nothing worked.
After years of literally crying when I put my jeans on, my boyfriend encouraged me to contact Sono Bello.... so we did.
Our first consultation was with Coleen. She was wonderful. Very honest, direct, and up front. I told her what I was looking for and she agreed that this would work for me.
We made the appointments for the pre-op and surgery.... phase 2 of absolute wonderfulness at Sono Bello.
From Julie greeting us when we arrived, to Jess and Dr. Volk during the pre-op, this place is first-class, up front, no holds barred. Dr. Volk and Jess answered all questions. Were very open with what I will be dealing with, Spoke to both my boyfriend and I, and spent as much time with us as we needed.
The following week, was my surgery. Enter Jen.... man this girl could give training on how to be a nurse. Absolutely wonderful.
Dr. Volk and Jen were amazing during the procedure. I had my abs (upper/lower) and waist done. They kept me very comfortable. Talked during the procedure, keeping me informed on what they were doing.
Even though you can't see what they are doing, Jen kept me in the loop.
After the surgery, Dr. Volk called me that night to see how I was doing. I also heard from Jen during the weekend.
If you are thinking about doing this, I would highly recommend it. I am two weeks post surgery, and although my final body hasn't been "revealed yet", I'm loving what I am seeing and feeling.
Thank you Sono Bello.. I truly love my Sono Bello body!!”

I met with several (6) different surgery centers. It's not something that you really ask around about, so it's definitely tough to make a decision. I just didn't feel impressed and any procedure is a big deal. I met with Sonobello last. I made my consult appointment and met with Jessica and Casi. These 2 women are phenomenal! I felt welcome and right at home in their office. Right off the bat I appreciated their honesty. I am a "go big, or go home" kind of person. They told me outright don't do your arms, they don't need it. This impressed me. They could have very well sold it to me, but didn't. I asked a ton of questions and never felt so at ease. I didn't feel judged or rushed as I had in other consults. I signed the paperwork and scheduled my first surgery for just 2 days later I felt so comfortable, it was hands down the best experience out of any facility I met with. I needed 2 procedures as I had every area with the exception of my calves, ankles, arms and chin done. I drove home feeling excited!!
Now, if you are reading my review you are going to do exactly what I did. You are going to Google until your head spins. I read every negative review I could find. I freaked out. I drove there the next am ready to cancel and tell them that I wanted my deposit back. I walked in the door and everybody working there knew my name. They didn't have me finish paying until I met with Dr. Volk (who is a rockstar!). I was taken back for my pre op appointment with Jen the nurse (also a rockstar). I told her about all the horrible reviews I found. I told her I was freaking out, I didn't want to do it. I was scared. Both Dr. Volk and Jen eased my mind within minutes. ALL of my questions were answered, my fears gone. I didn't feel rushed or pressured (as some reviews said I would). We talked about everything. What to expect, recovery, how to prepare. Once again I left there excited!
My first procedure was 2 weeks ago where Dr. Volk did my top half. They talked to me during the procedure, explained everything that was going on and even listened to the music I wanted. The procedure was a breeze! Honestly, I fell asleep during part of it. They explained everything to my fiancé afterwords for what to do at home. The nurse even drew him pictures so he knew where the incisions were. They sent me home with everything I needed! Dr. Volk called me that night to see how I was doing. This was a Saturday. I received follow up calls and emails all weekend, basically every day. I had to call the center as I had a question. Dr. Volk was not in that day. He called me back from his personal cell within a half an hour! I was back to work Tuesday. Sore, but nothing unmanageable.
A week later Dr. Volk completed the 2nd procedure. Basically my entire bottom half. Again, everybody there knew my name, and everything was gone through with what to expect with this round. During surgery the nurse, Dr. and myself talked about weddings, and getting engaged, everything, like we were long lost friends. Dr. Volk again called me to check on me that night.
It is 2 weeks after my 1st procedure and one week after my 2nd, and I had my post op check up today. I met with Casi to tell her how great she is, how great everybody there is! I looked at before and after pictures. I still have some swelling, but the results are absolutely amazing!!! Although I wanted to jump up and down and hug Dr. Volk I just thanked him so much and told him he was an absolute rockstar! All of the nurses were awesome, especially Jen.
I cannot say one negative thing about Sonobello in Edina. First class from the minute I walked in the door. I can't wait to see final results. If you are on the fence, go for it! I am so glad I did and so glad I decided on Sonobello.”

“I'm really pleased I did this procedure (stomach/hips/chin) at Sono Bello. I took Friday through Tuesday off from work for the initial recovery period to promote faster healing. It took 2 weeks to really see a difference. It has encouraged me to eat healthier for best overall results. Now at 4 weeks post op, I have lost 12 pounds so far. My pants fit so much better. I'm no longer trying to disguise rolls of fat or too embarrassed to wear tight fitting shirts. Dr. Volk did my procedures, he is simply the best! If money wasn't an issue, I would go back and have him do my arms and legs too, but guess I'll do it the old fashioned way. My advice is to do exactly what they tell you and when they tell you for the best road to recovery. Wear your compression garments faithfully. Don't wear tight waist bands or belts for at least a month. Invest in yourself and gain back your confidence. I'm so glad I did.”

My timeline was really quick - less time to worry! YAY! My expectations were very reasonable: "80% flatter tummy, a waist, loose skin, and lots of pain." I'm pretty tolerant to pain (this was MUCH LESS painful than getting my tubes tied or gall bladder out - and the recovery was a LOT quicker than either of those). The ONLY thing I didn't like about the clinic was each time I went in I had different people (initial consult/salesperson, pre-op appointment nurse, prep nurse, operating room nurse, 1-week post-op nurse - all nice, but all different people).”

“My experience with everyone at Sono Bello (Edina) has been FABULOUS!
I had to wait a couple weeks for my consultation, appointment, which was fine. I used that time to research every inch of the internet world about Laser assisted Lipo. I found that Sono Bello (Edina) has an outstanding reputation. I found NO reasons not to move ahead with the procedures of body sculpting. So, I continued to research and I became comfortable with the idea of having the sculpting completed.
The day arrived when I had my consultation, with Chandra, my first impression was, I was surprisingly comfortable with her. Chandra greeted me so kindly and explained every detail of the body sculpting. I was incredibly at ease. Then the monies conversation, I gasped at the total cost to have an overhaul procedure, completely redo ME. Once, I stepped back and listened to Chandra, walk me through the different options of the areas to be sculpted. I was pleasantly pleased. How affordable the procedures actually became to complete. Chandra stated, "We can schedule you in on Saturday." Mind you it was Thursday on the day we met. She said again, "well, what do you think?" Dr. Volk is wonderful.
I stared at her, with my eyes glazed over, similar to a deer in the headlights of a car, my whole insides were churning with excitement. I looked at her and said, LET'S DO IT!
I was so excited.
Dr. Volk and the whole team at the Edina office are so professional and unbelievably kind. Thank you guys!
I am now three weeks from my first procedure and a week from my second. Both procedures went smoothly and I am so pleased with the results already.... and actually the final results could be at least 6 months out. So, I am feeling pretty darn happy. Realistically, how could I not love everyone at Sono Bello .....
i go in for the procedure in the morning.... and a couple hours later, I am heading home with a waist 8 Inches smaller,
HECK YEAH, I am HAPPY.
Would I recommend Sono Bello.... I would without a doubt.... not even hesitate. I did my research... and my homework on the background of the actual procedure being done....
YES, I would jump again onto the procedure chair, with out a blink of an eye.
Thank you Everyone at Sono Bello (EDINA), you are the best team in town/ ANYWHERE.”

“I wasn't extremely overweight, but wasn't completely satisfied with my appearance as I had gotten to my max weight, and no matter what I did, I just couldn't lose the weight.

I saw several ads for Sono Bello, and had thought about actually going to check them out several times, but each time I kept chickening out. After about the 4th or 6th time seeing an ad, I decided to go ahead and give it a try, and see what Sono Bello had to offer.

I must say, I'm glad I did!!!

At no time did I ever feel like I was being frowned upon by any of the staff, nor did they make me feel horrible for being slightly over my desired weight. From first contact, all the way to my follow-up, as well as the weekly email updates of what to expect, Sono Bello has been nothing but top notch!

The only thing I wish I would have done was taken off a month of work to allow my body to recuperate, but honestly, my body has been bouncing back rather impressively.

They tell you to drink plenty of water, and to wear your compression garments whenever possible. Trust the brochures and other warnings when they say not to wear tight clothing and/or belts....(the awesome nurses can actually tell! LOL)

It has been three weeks now since my procedure, and every day I see changes to my body. I am currently down 10lbs since my visit, and am looking forward to the final product.

Thank you to all of the Staff for making my decision a good one!”

The day of surgery the nurse Alisha was fantastic. She Spent enough time with me explaining everything that was going to take place. Her kind mannerism and calmness helped to decrease my nervousness, she was very sweet and I wish to have her again for my next procedure.

He and the rest of the staff answered all my questions, made sure I was comfortable and knew what to do before the big day. The procedure itself was no sweat...they even made sure my favorite music was playing!! Recovery time was short and the pain and discomfort were minimal...it feels like sore muscles after a hard workout. Some areas were tender but all in all I was very pleasantly surprised with how I felt. I am 3 weeks out from my first procedure and one week out from my second, I can see the results already and am really excited to see how I'll look after the swelling is gone.

“I would like to start out by saying WOW!!!! Let me explain the context in which I use the word WOW and how it applies to all aspects of Sono Bello Body Contour Center in Edina. From my initial consultation through my post procedure follow-ups I was treated with the kind of respect and kindness that made me feel more like a family member than a patient. Their honesty, transparency, skill, and compassion are simply spectacular. I had given this procedure extensive consideration since the birth of my children and father time morphed me into someone I barely recognized.
I was apprehensive and skeptical before my initial meeting with Chandra. She answered all my questions giving me the confidence and belief that I could look as beautiful on the outside as I felt inside. I then met with Dr. Flagg and the nursing staff (Alissa, Jordan, Nina and Sara) and I knew I had made the right choice.
My procedures included abdomen, back, arms, chin, thighs, and knees. They recommended these be done in two different sessions to reduce my discomfort as I had a hectic holiday entertainment schedule beginning three days after my first procedure. Prior to these procedures I was given detailed and realistic expectations concerning pain (minimal), swelling (substantial, albeit short lived), and recovery (tolerable). It has only been a few weeks since my first procedure and one week since my second and I can not believe the difference. I look forward to getting up every day and seeing the changes. I am already beginning to receive compliments from others.
My subsequent contact with everyone at Sono Bello confirms to me that their kindness and compassion is genuine. Their attentiveness, thoroughness and follow- up are simply amazing. I could not recommend Sono Bello any more fervently. Don’t hesitate a moment longer, make the best decision of your life. WOW!”

However, when talking to Chandra and telling how I got so winded when I would exercise do to the extra fat. She gave me the encouragement to go forward.

I had a C-section from my first child, in which sadly the doctor did a horrible job a sewing me up. Dr Flagg told me he could make my stomach look better in the area of my C-section. I am amazed at what a great job he did. I will always have the scar but now I am not afraid to show other people my stomach. I am two weeks out and my stomach looks great! I cannot say enough of how happy I am with everything Sono Bello and Dr Flagg has done.

“I am currently 33 years old a mother of 4. Daughter 15, Sons 5, 4, & 2-1/2. As a child and early teen I was very active and gymnast. After the birth of my daughter I gained weight and thought about lipo but cost was unrealistic. A year before I had my boys I started losing weight by working out and eating right. After I had my boys I gained most of it back. I went back to working out and eating right and maintained my goal weight but still unhappy with my thighs. My sister mentioned Sono Bello. I looked into for several months before I decided to try the free consultation. I went in thinking of a price range. While talking to the consultant she was very honest with what to expect. The quote was below expected so I went ahead and schedule the surgery for inner/outer thighs and knees. At the pre-op I met the doctor. He also made me feel really comfortable and was honest with what to expect. The day of surgery everything went according to plan and I didn't feel anything during the procedure. They were very helpful during recovery process. I had my surgery done almost 3 weeks ago. There was discomfort but nothing more than expected. I went in on a Friday. By Sunday I was on only Advil and doing normal household chores and back to work on Monday. I currently still have some swelling but the results have been wonderful.

During the meeting, Chandra explained what the center's staff could do for me and clearly outlined the associated cost. I was convinced and requested treatment the following week.

From my first phone call, my treatment was complete within 14 days. One month later, I can say making that call was a wise decision.”

“I am a very active woman in my late twenties. Despite a healthy diet and daily exercise regime, I have had stubborn fat deposits in my core and arms for years.
I thought long and hard about getting any kind of surgery, (being a confirmed skeptic of such things), but I finally took the plunge this spring, fed up with never feeling comfortable in anything sleeveless. Had upper arms done, and I am floored by the results, only 3 weeks post-op.
Excellent staff, amazing medical staff- (thanks to nurse Patty & Dr. Hatfield). Procedure itself was a breeze and I was made very comfortable. Minimal pain post-op, and swelling only for a couple weeks. I look forward to seeing the long-term results, and I am very pleased so far.”

“I had been contemplating doing this procedure for about 3 months. I finally decided to do it. I decided that I would have my upper abs, lower abs, and my waist done. I was nervous going into the procedure but then I met Dr. Flagg and knew I was in good hands. I'm so happy I decided to finally do something for myself. The procedure took a few hours, but I was comfortable the entire time. I was unsure how much pain I would be in afterward, but was pleasantly surprised that I could get by just taking Ibuprofen. I had my procedure done on Wednesday and was able to return to work on Friday. After having 4 kids, I wanted my waist back. It has only been 3 weeks, but I can already see the results and I am very happy! Thank you!”

“After years of considering having my problem areas done, excercising, dieting and not seeing the results that I wanted- at almost 40, I decided it was time for a consultation. Unfortunately I went into the office on the wrong day!- No problem. The staff greeted me with open arms, made accomodations, and were extremely helpful in getting me seen. The center is clean, welcoming, and professional. I was pretty nervous about having it done, but the entire staff, including the nurses were very good at reassuring me and making me feel very comfortable with the procedure. I met Dr. Flagg and knew I was in good hands! The procedure was actually fun (is that even possible?!) Oh- it was! I had my upper, lower abs, and waist/hips done. Post-op, the only pain medication I needed was what I received the day of the procedure. I swelled a bit, but had very little bruising. The incisions healed fast and I could return to work on day 2. Im on day 11 and the swelling has gone down tremendously. I can already tell a huge difference in the way my clothes fit (no more muffin top!) I have been just so thrilled with my experience at Sono Bello- there just aren't enough good words. If you've been thinking about touching up some stubborn spots- I highly recommend them! Thank you all for being so wonderful! I feel incredible!”

“I had researched Sono Bello pretty throughly before I went in to meet with Chandra for a consultation appointment. I had several questions for Chandra in which she answered all my questions very throughly and made me feel confident in why I was there and the procedure I was getting. That day I left there feeling confident in my decision. My procedure was a week later and the day before I went in for my physical. Again, I was very nervous and scared but the nurses there were so friendly they made it much easier and reassurmed me I was still making the right decision. (a special shout out to mother hen (nurse), sorry I couldn't remember your name and Jordan (nurse) who I had the day I had the procedure I couldn't thank Dr. Hatfield enough also for making it as relaxing as it could even though I needed the max of pain medicine but once it kicked it I don't remember anything..:) Dr. Hatfield called me the next couple of days to see how I was feeling. I had my procedure done on a Saturday so that means Dr. Hatfield took time on her day off to reach out to me to make sure I was okay. Again, everyday I see results making it more exciting and promising I made the right decision and it has only been 2 weeks. I can't wait to see what I will see in 6 weeks. I look forward to going back on my 3 month check up to see all the wonderful people there from the front desk receptionist to the nurses and Dr. Hatfield. If I had to do it again I would in a heartbeat and I might just have another procedure done as I had the upper and lower abs, waist and hips. I would recommend this to anyone that is thinking about having something done and especially at the Edina Mn location. Thanks again for a wonderful experience!!!”

“Wow. I am a fairly fit and active almost 50 year old. Since menopause I have struggles with the waist area and have been told it's just how it is. Well I wasn't ok with that. I saw the Sono Bello ad on TV and went in for a consult. At the very first visit I felt that I was part of the family. So friendly, kind and have all the time in the world for you. Post surgery has gone great. Back to work after a day. 20 days post op I have started high impact exercising yet, but am close to it. Thanks Sono Bello!”

“I had my stomach and flanks worked on by Dr.. Flagg and his staff and though it has only been 4 weeks and I am not at my peek results, I could not be happier with everything.
First, I was greated by the receptionist who was an absolute doll! I cannot believe that her name slips my mind right now; however she was happy and just an absolute delight! I know that there are some out there that say negative things and call her a "barbie"; however, I think that she is a delight and they could not have hired better! Her job is to be happy and make you feel comfortable; if you wanted to be treated like crap for breathing, then go to the DPS office.
Second, I had my initial conceltation with Chandra; she did not try to hide anything, which was great! With hospitals you dont find out how much somthing costs until you get your bill; she was upfront with all cost and discussed the areas of treatment that are connected. I cannot count how many post that I have read that said negative things because they were "pinched and treated like they needed everything fixed", all I have to say is that you went into a cosmetic surgey place, what did you expect! You would not go to tiremax and expect them to sell you cake would you? No. You go to a cosmetic surgery place becasue you want something fixed, not a self-esteem boost; if you want that then you need a few friends that "love you the way you are" and a therapist.
Third, I had 2 nurses that attended to me and they were the best! One had been a nurse for over 23 years at the local hospital that left in order to work for Dr. Flagg (that says it all) and the other had at least 5 years of expierence and was upfront, honest, and explained EVERYTHING to me! She was blunt, and this is so hard to find! Most people say "slight discomfort" or "manageable" those are fluff words that people use so that they can lie to your face; BUT NOT MY NURSES, they were great!!! I new exactly what to expect and they were absoutely right!
Then there is my Doctor, Dr. Flagg. Words cannot describe what kind of professional that this man is, and I could not be happier that I he was the one that treated me. I cannot wait to see my final results at month 3; because at month 1 I can say that I got more than what I wanted!!! He would send me email of "hwat to expect" and they were on point! So much so that I thought that he had ESP!!! He catered to my comfort all the way down to the minuet details (i.e. background music of my choice in the O.R.) In my pre-op, he explained the procedure in so much detail that I felt completely comfortable for my procedure.
I think that you are a complete fool if you choose to go elsewhere.”

“I attended a Sono Bello open house spontaneously with a girlfriend. I had never seriously considered lipo suction but was completely sold on the idea after meeting the doctors and staff. The advanced technology and after care were really the deciding factors. I had my procedures in early November and could not be more happy with my results! I recommend Sono Bello to anyone considering this type of procedure. It has been a wonderful exciting experience.”

“I am 9 days out from my procedure and am nothing but happy! From the first contact, ease of scheduling and the amazing staff I have nothing but good to say. The procedure itself, while sounding scary, was painless and needed very little pain control even after. Even now, with the swelling I am already happy with the results. Time is only going to make it better .I would not hesitate for a minute to do this again. If you are on the edge, go talk to them. You won't be sorry!

“I had an AMAZING experience at Sono Bello!! Everyone there was so incredibly nice and very professional. I felt at ease as soon as I walked in, Then I had my consultation with Chandra and she was so sweet and very informative about everything she took very good care of me and I appreciated her kindness very much. She made sure I had my procedure as soon as I could and I had it on New Years Eve, I met Dr Volk and again it was like talking to an old friend he was too very nice and very professional answered all my questions and I left feeling very excited and very confident that this was the right decision and he was the prefect Dr. to do my procedure. On my procedure day I had Nurse Patty and she was another sweetheart and an awesome nurse she took good care of me getting me ready for the procedure. I want to thank ALL that were a part of my time there and I would recommend anyone thinking about having any kind of body contouring to DEFINITELY go to Sono Bello your not just another patient there your like family. Thank you so much for everything!!”

“I went into Sono Bello knowing this is not a loose weight quick gimmick. I was more worried about the overall shape of my body and not the number on the scale. I was able to get in and have my procedure done only after 2 days of first meeting with the staff. Dr Flagge made me feel comfortable and never once did I second guess myself before having the procedure. The surgery took about two and a half hours and even though you are not put under I don't remember anything about the procedure. I remember telling the doctor after the surgery I had no pain which I didn't and still not have had any real major pain in the 10 days after surgery. The day after I removed my bandages and replaced with some knew ones. This was my first chance to see myself after surgery and I was very pleased. I looked thin and fit, but the days after I have had a lot of swelling which I was told is normal. My incisions healed very fast and are already scabbed over and seem to be getting smaller each day. My swelling is slowly going down and I'm very excited to see my results in 6 months. The swelling does discourage you a bit because I was actually bigger than when I went in for the procedure, but you have to just remember its just swelling. On day 9 I went in for my post op and was 5 pounds lighter. Ive been trying to not eat any junk food or drink any pop after the surgery because this is my new life and I don't want to ruin it like I have over the past 8 years with fast food and pop every day. If you are on the fence I would highly recommend Sono Bello In Edina, MN the staff is amazing and so are the doctors. I would go through it again without hesitation. ”

“After 26 years of diet and exercise om and off, which never achieved the results I wanted, I was still over weight and not happy. I had thought about a tummy tuck but was not thrilled about the procedure and recovery time or the scar that it would leave. I have had two c-sections and have never been able to reduce my abs no matter how many crunches I did. My trainer even told me it would never go away - (That was encouraging). Watching TV one night, a Sono Bello commercial came on. I figured what do I have to lose with the consultation being FREE. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made. The procedure was a piece of cake. It has been 16 days since my procedure which included Upper / Lower Abs, Hips and Waist. I was up and about the same day of my procedure and returned to work the next day. The results are amazing. Down 4 sizes in the 16 days and lost 10 pounds. It seems like my body changes daily (for the better) and I feel GREAT! With eating healthy and exercising I feel I can achieve my ultimate body image of myself. Not only did it help my body image but I feel it helped my overall health. When meeting Dr. Hatfield in my pre-op exam, she gave me a realistic description of what I could expect. I didn't want to get my hopes up too high. The results are beyond Dr. Hatfields' description. I am ECSTATIC! with the results!!! I can't wait for my 3 and 6 month checkups. Dr. Hatfield, Dr. Ben and the whole Sono Bello staff were fantastic. My only advise to anyone that is thinking about the procedure is "Don't wait like I did" it is definitely worth it and so are you:) ”

“After many years of tried and failed exercise routines and "magic pills", I decided to give Sono Belo a call. Figuring that if I can at least have the body fat in the wrong places(spare tire, waist and upper back), removed then I can work on the rest hopefully with results I'm looking for. Did I mention I'm male and 55 years old. M
My experience at Sono Belo was really good. The people I was directly involved with were really easy to talk with, and seemed genuinely concerned about my health, needs, and prospects of the results.
I do have to add though. the after surgery recovery is a bit harder than I anticipated, or had been warned of. It took close to a week before I wasn't in quite a bit pain when moving around. But they were on the money about the swelling. As of today I'm still not where I want to be, but it's getting better all the time, did I mention that it's only been 12 days since the procedure, so in reality as the swelling continues to decrease, I'm confident the results will be to my satisfaction”

“I had been faithfully going to the gym for years, even working with a trainer for a year, but my "problem areas" would not go away no matter how hard I worked. I made the decision to go in for a consult and to see what Sono Bello had to offer. All of the staff were very nice to work with, and I arranged to have 3 areas addressed by Dr. Volk. There was some discomfort with the procedure (I wouldn't call it pain), however Dr. Volk addressed the situation to make me more comfortable. I am only one month out from my procedure and am already seeing a new figure emerging; I can't wait to see the final results in the next few months. The emails I have received at various intervals since the procedure, telling me what I should be expecting, have been very helpful and encouraging. I would recommend Sono Bello to anyone thinking about pursuing liposuction!”

Then working with Michelle and Dr Flagg was great. I had two separate procedures done and they were very comforting and made sure I was well taken care of. There was some pain but well worth the results. I am two months out from surgery and down 2 sizes in jeans! I feel great and it was just the confidence boost I needed!

I knew I was in good hands. The prcedured was done and I had little after pain. I didn't even need the pain pills. You do need to follow instructions to the T. This is not a weight loss,but a body contour. It will however give you the boost to take the it to the next level . Would I do this again? Yes! in a heart beat. Sincerely Linda”
