Vicki on BirdeyeJanuary 13, 2023
“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.”

My procedure went very well; I was nervous about not having anesthesia, but it was at most uncomfortable for very brief periods during the procedure. Otherwise it went as smoothly as possible! Alyssa the post-op nurse has been great as well, and has gotten back to me very quickly each time I called. I've had a great experience!”

Dr. Volk was extremely thorough and meticulous, which I very much appreciated. I was nervous to not have anesthesia, but the procedure was not painful and I even drifted off a couple times as I was being sutured up. My pre-op nurse Kiera was excellent, as was Dr. Volk, the post op nurse Alyssa and everyone else (sorry if I'm forgetting anyone)! I've had a few post op questions and Alyssa has gotten back to me quickly each time I called with a question. I would definitely recommend Sono Bello to family and friends!”

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.

At my age of 67, I thought I was probably too old for the make over I had, but not so. Everyone was very kind and made me feel comfortable about my decision.
I am thrilled with my results thus far and still have another stage coming, which I look forward too.
Thank you so much to Sono Bello for the amazing work you do!”

“I’ve never done this before but my spare tire was causing other painful side affects and I had read the reviews and decided to make an appointment.
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’m so happy I made this decision.”

“I had an incredible experience at my consultation. I was extremely nervous going in as it was my first time inquiring about a cosmetic procedure. I pictured walking in to a lobby full of perfect looking rich people wondering what in the world I was doing there!
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 was so pleasantly surprised by my experience at Sono Bello. When I left my consultation, the first thing I said to my boyfriend was that I wanted to vlog this experience because more people HAVE to know how wonderful they were! Everyone I encountered was so kind and judgement free, and they were all genuinely excited for my journey to feeling good about myself.
Special shout-out to Rachel at the Edina, MN office!!! You rock!”

“They went above and beyond to get me in for surgery but towards my 6 months post op visit, I was unhappy with my results. Sure Dr.Volk was able to take the max amount of fat off , but the post op care wasn't as great. I was told to do massages but not told how often, and how would I know if I was doing it correctly ?
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. I have uneven parts of my stomach, it is not flat and the post op care was not that great . I'm unhappy and should have went elsewhere or done more research.”

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.”

She gives you that comfort and sincerity that she truly cares and is concerned about what you have to say. I am very happy with Sono Bello of Edina. I have talked about what a great place it is to my wife and neighbors. My wife is now thinking about having a procedure done. It was so fun seeing how Debbie and Dr Strand got along so well and how funny he can be. Thanks for a pleasurable experience during a procedure that can make you so apprehensive.
Regards,
Ken Marek”

“They charge to much 6,000 for chin lipo and other places for chin lipo is 3 thousand. Happy I didn't go through with it plus before going with Sono Bello just look on YouTube so many people don't have good results your better off going to out of state to Miami or others states that's not so much money I guess it's not that popular in Minnesota so they charge more.”

“Well I am really dissatisfied and disappointed won’t the results! I read reviews prior but have it a chance and didn’t want to believe that results were poor plus I liked my sales consultant and beloved her assurances even though I had tried to reduce the areas I initially wanted to see the kind of results I would get first - she convinced me I would get the results I wanted because she had done it too - and well bolony! 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! Customer service is okay but what your actually paying for is nowhere near being worth it!!”

“My wife had her consultation, set up her pre op appointment and surgery, and paid.
Then they rescheduled her appointments twice.
So this (3rd) time we have the pre op appointment, then we go in for her surgery appointment and surprise surprise they have to reschedule again. It's been 3 months since her 1st scheduled surgery appointment.
So now they are supposed to get back to us to reschedule again.
I've burned up so much time off work that I've had to cancel a vacation I had scheduled for a year. Because they are "only able to schedule on Wednesdays".
( I work 12hr shifts M-Th).”

“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.!!”
Deborah on GoogleDecember 16, 2020
“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 have been on a journey this past year of becoming the healthiest and best me and Sono Bello has been a part of my journey - with an amazing results. I have lost 55 pounds this year through healthy eating and exercising. Sono Bello's team in Edina became part of team and they were fantastic from my first consult through post op. Each person has been great to work with and have answered all my questions and encouraged me to become the best me. I had the extra skin removed that was the result of having three kids and loosing the extra weight. I had the Tri Sculpt EX procedure done. I am so happy with my results. Seven inches are gone from my waist and I have a flat tummy! Thank you everyone at Sono Bello! I definitely would recommend my family and friends to Sono Bello.”

I had 3 areas liposuctioned and a big flap of skin removed which was basically a facelift to my pubic region! I have the stomach back that I had when I was 16! I’m now 55! I love it, my boyfriend loves it, and I get lots of compliments. I will say that it was a longer recovery than I’d first thought but the end result is worth it! The financing was easy!

“I highly recommend Sono Bello as a jump-start on living a better and healthier lifestyle. Not only did the experience give me an improved body image (where nothing else seemed to work for me), it provided me the self confidence that I had been lacking in the past 10 years that If I make the correct choices, I can have the body that I'm more comfortable living in - my clothes fit much better, I go for longer walks and do activities that I wasn't confident or comfortable doing before. I work at a desk and was able to resume my job duties the morning after my procedure. The staff at Sono Bello (Receptionist, nurses & the doctor) cared about me from the moment I walked in the office and checked in on me throughout the recovery process. I should have done this years ago!”

“Sono Bello EDINA‼️ I am 1 month post op and I feel amazing ❣️I am still a bit swollen but I love my body so much already🥰 From start to finish my experience was extraordinary ‼️ Nurse Danielle was PHENOMENAL‼️ Prepping me for my surgery she comforted me and supported me and checked on me thru out the entire process. 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. My appointments that I had post op I met the General Manager and RN and they were both loving and comforting. & The front desk staff are always on point. The atmosphere at Sono Bello Edina is incredible. I highly recommend!”

“Went to this place to get laser lipo done years ago, and once procedure was started was in immense pain. Unfortunately they wouldn’t turn back and just stop. To make matters worse I was botched, my hips are uneven (there is a bulge on one). I hope in the future I can get it fixed in the future but not by this place. It was bad from the beginning though I should have seen it coming, the lady who was giving me pricing had a snobby vibe. Please look elsewhere because for me it was not worth it!”

“The staff are wonderful!! They made me feel welcome, always have a smile on their face when I come in and don't come across as pretentious. like I had originally feared!! Lastly, I did not tolerate the pain meds the evening following surgery, therefore had to call for other relief. Dr. Volk returned my call within 15 minutes of me reaching out (way after business hours) and called in a new prescription immediately...that meant a lot!”
Danielle on BirdeyeJanuary 29, 2020
“It was amazing! The entire process was quick, easy, and every single person I came in contact with was informed and eager to help me in any way they could! 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. I would recommend Sono Bello to anyone and I wouldn’t hesitate to go back for another procedure!”

“The staff was great and added to my confidence along the way.Joy
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
cannot remember her name but I wish I did so I could Thank her.Doctor Volk is an excellent surgeon! My body is transformed
to my desired look.I cannot wait for my vacation next month to wear my swim suits! Thank you Sono Bello!”

“I would not recommend this place to anyone. They tell you they will make you beautiful but it is FAR from even close to that. They say there will be no pain and if you feel pain, they will stop and make sure there is no pain. NOT TRUE. They charged DOUBLE what I feel should be charged for what LITTLE they do. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!
Now with almost a year having passed since the surgery, I still have to wear The Binding garment because I feel like my gut is going to fall out. So I am still saying I would highly not recommend this place if this is what you can expect after almost 1 year.”

Not going to lie, I was a little hesitant and didn’t have the highest expectations for my micro-laser lipo as my stomach has been such a stubborn area and I never thought it would go away! 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! The procedure was uncomfortable but quick. If you’re on the fence of getting it done, DO IT. you will be so happy you did! Thank you sonobello!”

And, I am astonished by the results after only a few weeks. What a pleasant and exciting adventure!”

“My procedure of Lipo/ex was way beyond my high expectations. The Edina location was beyond amazing to work with from the minute I scheduled my consolation to all my on- going post opp Apts. Dr. Strand and his team were beyond professional addressing all my goals, concerns, future care and made me feel so comfortable. We laughed, shared stories and really made me feel I was amongst a group of close friends rather than health care practitioners. I was stuck as a mom of 3, working out and dieting but never feeling truly beautiful in the skin I was in! With the help from Sono Bella in Edina, they made me feel like my old self again pre-baby times! We’re off to Disney and the Keys and for the first time in 16 years I’m back in a 2 piece and rocking it!
Thank you so much for helping me find myself again!”

The day of my procedure the nurse walked me through everything she was doing. That actually helped me become more relaxed.
During my procedure I was very calm. You will feel a little pain, but nothing you can’t handle and this is coming from a lady who can’t tolerate any pain.
The Edina staff were very friendly and welcoming. I’m so happy with my results!!!!”

I wake up every day now with a renewed sense of self esteem and a shape I never thought possible. The staff at the Sonobello Edina office were kind, caring and thoughtful before during and after surgery. Thank you to Dr Strand, Joy, Darcy, Julie, Charlotte the LPN nurses and especially Elizabeth RN.
The whole experience was life changing and I can’t recommend it enough !”

Dr. Strand and the entire staff were very comforting and professional.”

“I've written several reviews on this and they don't post? Do your research this procedure doesn't do what they claim! Save your money this is a scam! I did upper and lower abdomen $5,000.00 with paid in full discount and literally only loss less than 1/4 inch started at 175 and at final exam was 168 was told my fat was next to my organs and I need to exercise and diet more I'm very active and watch what I eat I went 7 weeks with no bread pasta potatoes cracker basically no bad carbs, I work in a greenhouse sweating for hours at a time, also take care of my qaudrapligic husband who is 63 and 210 lbs plus take care of our home how much more active can I be? 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! My 4 incisions were completely closed at my two week check up that seemed to amaze the nurse proving I'm normal and healthy. $5000 paid up front to not even go down a pant size!”
Deanna on GoogleOctober 28, 2019
“I had both my upper and lower abdomen done the cost was $5,000.00 with a paid in full discount. The day of the procedure they were running behind my appointment was for 3:30 pm I wasn't taken back to the room UNTILL after 4:15 at which time I then waited another 75 minutes to have a gal come in and give me two pills, which totally put me out when I awoke the doctor was done I weighed 175 to begin with and at my final appointment weighed 168 I'm very active and excersised daily after the waiting period, I watch what I eat no fried foods lots of veggies and protein went 5 weeks without bread, pasta, potatoes, or crackers basically no bad carbs. Highly dissatisfied and was told the fat I had was stored next to my organs and they couldn't do anything else for me! $5,000.00 what a scam! Do your research if your going to do this procedure ther are multiple clinics that do it for MUCH LESS than Sonabella your paying,for there national advertising!”

Elizabeth on GoogleOctober 07, 2019
“I cannot say enough about how wonderful, professional, caring, funny, and talented the nurses, physicians, and office staff are at Sono Bello in Edina. All of my questions were answered, the follow up emails and phone calls were timely and instructive, and they always treated me as if I were the only client they had. I am three months out, and my results are EXACTLY what they said they’d be, and what I had hoped for. I just love how I look and feel. I will recommend Sono Bello to everyone. 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. Keep in mind that I had worn that dress a dozen times and never did anyone mention anything. So, it’s not the dress. It’s how the dress looked. I could keep going but you get the point.”
Elizabeth on GoogleOctober 05, 2019
“I have a decent vocabulary, but I simply cannot find the words to tell anyone reading this what a life-changing, wonderful experience I have had with Sono Bello in Edina. From my first consultation (where, incredulous, I listened to the knowledgeable consultant assure me, yes they could, indeed, get rid of all that fat) to my three-month, and final, follow up visit, I have been treated as though I were the only person in the world and they are there solely to meet my needs. 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. Their nurses and doctors and office staff are the funniest, friendliest, yet most professional people ever with whom I have entrusted my care. This is the place. It’s amazing. Seriously. If this is something you’re thinking about, call them.”

“They were amazing! All staff is friendly, very informed and eager to help/answer any questions you may have. They were not pushy during the free consult and gave me all the information needed in making the decision. Dr. Strand is super personable and straight forward about the procedure and healing process! Was amazed at how quick the whole process was and loved how they split my procedure into two separate dates. Minimal pain, just some muscle type soreness, which I told to expect from day one. Would 100% recommend Sono Bello to anyone who is ready to take the leap forward, or at least ready for their FREE consult!”

“My procedure went pretty much as I expected a little uncomfortable but not to bad. Everyone at Sonobello has been so wonderful since my first meeting with Darcey, Julie, Charlotte to the nurses and Dr. Brian Strand. Such wonderful caring people. Dr. Stand called me at home after my procedure to see how I was doing. I feel everyone has been so caring and really cares how you are doing. I would highly recommend this great team of people. Thank you to all of them.”

“They got my wife's hopes so high with the consultation .
I paid them , and my wife was so disappointed in what they did and the results were no where near what they told us they would be. Do not go here They talk a real big game and Then really let you down on the end results themselves. I try to tell and somebody every day about how they lied to us.”

“I was hesitant to get liposuction, but after gaining weight decided the time was now. I am 29 weighed in at 223 and wore a size 12/14. I got upper and lower abdomen, waist and bra roll done. 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. I am now down to 198lbs wearing 2 sizes smaller and feel amazing. You still have to do the work, but this can make you feel excited to do it. I would do it again in a heartbeat!”
Emily on BirdeyeSeptember 03, 2019
“The staff made the process as comforting as possible.
I am 66 and waited too long to make this change but am enjoying my new shape now! Guess it’s never too late.
Every week I see more positive changes and even bought smaller sizes for the first time in 40 years.”
Tracy on BirdeyeAugust 27, 2019
“Initial consultation was great. All questions and fears were answered and we found a way to make it work in my budget. I am only one week past my second procedure and am still very swollen. But even with the swelling, I can already tell a difference. I am anxious to see the final results after the swelling is gone. I was impressed with the follow up I received after my procedures. Phone calls to make sure all was OK and to see if I had questions and emails with "what to expect" at this time post procedure. Entire staff is fantastic and are willing to help with any question or issues you may have and just to make sure you are happy.”
Karen on BirdeyeAugust 16, 2019
“Extremely happy with my procedure and pre/post op appointments at Sono Bello. I had my flanks, upper, and lower abs done and I couldn't be more pleased with how well I look and the inches gone from my waist. Very friendly atmosphere and attentive to your needs as a patient.”
Becca on BirdeyeAugust 15, 2019
“Everyone I met from the front desk receptionist to the financial consultant, nurses, and doctor were so kind! It was not a rushed visit. Everyone took the time to explain the procedure in depth and answer all my questions. The follow up after the procedure was amazing. The doctor called me that night to see how I was doing. I especially like the follow up emails, explaining where I should be post op and educating me on diet and exercise. It's not a painless procedure, but very manageable if you follow instructions.”

“From the time I stepped in the door until it was over, every staff member were so very caring and friendly. They were upfront and honest on what would happen, how long recovery would take and what it would be like. I appreciated the honesty.
I was very nervous about getting my procedures done but the staff and Doctor made me feel very comfortable. During the procedures the Dr and nurse were great, I even got to pick the music during it all, (lol). They were always talking to me and making sure I was ok or if I needed anything.
So far everything I had done looks very good. Still recovering, still swollen a bit but after 1 month I am very happy with the results so far. Can't wait to see the end results.
I would differently go back if I wanted any other areas done.”
Debbie on BirdeyeAugust 13, 2019
“I am 4 weeks post op and I am pleased with my results. I had waist, upper and lower abs and excess skin removal. I had 9lbs of fat removed. I am looking very good right now but I should heal for another 2 mos. The most pain came from the excess skin removal post op. Lasted about a week. I was able to go to work 4 days after procedure. I enjoyed all the staff and my surgeon.”

“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 really cannot say enough good things about my Sono Bello experience. It was a really big deal for me to actually go in after years of dreaming.
From the minute I walked in I felt welcomed, everyone was very friendly and professional, especially Julie. She was very personable which instantly put me at ease. This was a huge decision for me so it was important I felt comfortable. She was very thorough with all the information and answered all my questions, which gave me the confidence to proceed, I knew then that I had made the right choice.
Thank you, for helping me to change my life, I only wish I had done this much sooner!”

“Ladies! The more you know, the more you are empowered! I'm a 30 year old single mother of an 8 year-old boy. I decided to become the best version of myself, with a little help of course! 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'm on day 12 so far and have made it past my first week appointment with flying colors: I'm healing beautifully. I'm looking forward to the future with no regrets behind me! Thank you Sono Bello Team!!”

Tracy on BirdeyeJuly 21, 2019
“Everyone I have dealt with in the facility has been awesome! They have all answered any question or concern I have expressed with genuine care and consideration for me. The emails I get periodically have been very helpful as my procedure continues to heal. So far, the results are looking good. Can’t wait for final results and I don’t have to wear my compression garment any longer.”

“I just wanted to be able to sit down and not see my rolls !
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!
Shout out to my nurse Elizabeth! She was
Great!”
Karen on BirdeyeJuly 10, 2019

Jennifer on BirdeyeJuly 01, 2019
“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.”
Dee on BirdeyeJune 30, 2019
“Although I was terrified, the staff assured me it would be ok. From the front desk, to the nurses, they are all so pleasant. Both appointments thus far were a breeze and they were on time. Most importantly, I received a phone call from my nurse, Darcy and my Doctor just to check on me. Now how special is that”
JA on BirdeyeJune 27, 2019
“Was. We push for my consultation but as soon as I walked in Charlotte greeted me with a smile and had such a wonderful presence that it made me feel comfortable and happy. Then going back to meet and talk to my consultant Darcy, she answered every question I could think of, was fun and sweet and made me feel confident in making this decision for myself. 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. Plus I’m so thrilled with my results so far and I haven’t even completely healed yet. It’s also great to know they are always available to answer any questions post surgery in case I have any.”
Amanda on BirdeyeJune 27, 2019
“I have loved my experience with Sono Bello! All of the staff has been amazing to work with. Darcy Blasing has been such a great representative of Sono Bello! She made me feel very comfortable with the process and has been such a great communicator. She really made me feel at home and was one of the main decision factors that I choose to go with Sono Bello for my procedures. She even talked me into doing more areas than I originally planned. She is awesome and I highly recommend her! Thanks for all your help Darcy!”
Anna on BirdeyeJune 24, 2019
“Sono Bello lives up to their words. I have no regrets about having this procedure done but. I wish I was told in the beginning on how long it would take to see my results. It's been almost 2 months and I see a DRASTIC CHANGE. I cannot wait for my FULL RESULTS which will probably be another 4-6 Months. I would DEFINITELY RECOMMEND Sono Bello to anyone who want to look and feel better. Patience is needed also. Sono you ROCK!!!!”
Jacqueline on BirdeyeJune 20, 2019

Called me the same evening to see how I was doing and stated I could call him with any issues. Now that's stellar customer service.”
AJ on BirdeyeJune 20, 2019
“Darcey was amazing!! She made me so comfortable having to show my “belly” fat to her and never pasted judgement. She also took it upon herself to get some type one diabetic information, trying to help me get my labs in order. Because of her I am very motivated to get my labs level so I can return in August and have my procedure!!”
Cris on BirdeyeJune 19, 2019
“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.”

Sharon on BirdeyeApril 27, 2019
“I was skeptical and nervous about having a procedure done, so much so that I cancelled my first surgery. Then after more in depth conversations with my consultant, Julie, I decided to go through with my procedure. It has been 6 weeks since my surgery and I am sooooo excited to see my final results. I already look amazing and feel so much better about myself than I did before and I still have some minimal swelling.
Everyone at Sonobello, from my consultant, my three nurses, Dr. Volk and the rest of the team, are so professional and helpful. They were always there to answer any and all my questions (and I had a lot) both before and after my procedure. Thank you for making my Sonobello procedure such a pleasant experience and for being so personable.”

My arms both have fat pockets that were left behind right above my elbows. Looks ridiculous. I would not recommend sonobello.”
A on GoogleMarch 15, 2019
“I’m very happy with the kind & courteous staff at the practice. From beginning to end, starting with my consultant, to the nurses, to Dr Volk and the followup care I received, everyone provided outstanding service.
I’m currently at my 1-week post stage of recovery. I’m eager to see my final results in 3 months and am hopeful that they will align with my expectations prior to surgery. I’ll be sure to post an update then. If it’s in line with the great service I’ve had so far, I’m sure I’ll be pleased with the results!
If you’re considering body sculpting, I recommend Sono Bello. Less invasive procedures and at 1-week post-op, I can tell you there is very little downtime. Excited to see my final results!
XOXOXO Everyone at the Practice!”

“The staff and medical team were great! Every step of the process was thoroughly explained and smooth. I was able to talk directly to my doctor when I had questions late at night after the procedure. The results were fantastic and still seeing positive changes. I highly recommend Sono Bello.”
Elisheva on BirdeyeMarch 10, 2019
“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.”
Jim on GoogleMarch 09, 2019
“I booked my consultation just thinking I would get information not thinking I could ever actually be able to do it. Casi was so sweet kind and helpful. Made me feel okay that I wanted this done without judgement. I literally booked that day and surgery within that week. Their customer service/check in’s are amazing. They really care and readily available/call backs/emails etc. Now to my results omg I never thought I could have a flat tummy and I do. My Dr and the nursing staff were just as amazing with check in’s/questions as well. I highly recommend Sono Bello to anybody who is wanting to improve that stubborn area you need a little help with.”
Corrina on GoogleMarch 09, 2019
“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.

I was very impressed with the Dr.when he personally called me to see how I was doing. I love the email updates that are sent. I have recommended SonaBello to my friends. I cannot sing there praises enough.”

“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 am now 5 weeks post -procedure and I couldn't be more thrilled! As a mother of 5 in my 40's my body wasn't exactly what it used to be. I made the decision for ME and ONLY me to not only get a jump start on a new figure, but more importantly to regain the confidence I had lost. I was so very excited that Sono Bello also offered skin removal!!! No matter how much weight I have lost in the past I could never get rid of the loose "pouch" from carrying 5 children. I have nothing but kudos for the entire team. From my initial consult with the wonderful and accommodating Casi, to the genius expertise of Dr. Volk who performed my procedure. I truly never thought my abdomen would look this good. I would absolutely recommend Sono Bello to my all of my friends and family. Thank you to the entire staff, I am forever grateful.”

“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!”

“Had the EX procedure done to remove fat and excess skin. I can see my stomach muscles again, still taking time for the incision to heal but all is looking good so far. Everyone one is different, but didn't have unreasonable amount of pain during or after. Staff is nice, especially Julie who set me up, and the doctor was precise as how much he could do per each procedure, and wasn't going to do a half job on one, so all could get done at one time. ”

“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 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!”

“My experience with Sono bello has been great. As a treat to myself, I decided to have the lipo procedure done and finally get rid of my love handles. 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. I can’t wait to see the final results. I’ve been eating healthier and will continue to make the best of my results. Finally!!”

I feel like I was not prepared for the procedure. Little or no down time did not apply in my case. I am 8 weeks out and I have huge lumps in my stomach and still look fat. I for sure do not feel that my stomach looks very good. It may help to see my before picture to assure me that all the pain and numbness was indeed worth it.”

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 would not recommend. Had full back done. The pain is ridiculously painful, and on top of that, I STILL have the same fat! What the hell did they do since I went through all the pain? 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.”

She made promises that weren't even possible, and mislead me all the way. She said I would be down 2-3 sizes by spring. 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). Dr. Volk thought it would be better to get everything done in ONE procedure day, with a net loss of 10 pounds. And yet I paid for 20...”

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!" Thank you Dr. Hatfield and her Care Team. They did a great job and I am telling anyone that inquires! Why would you keep a secret about feeling the best I have felt in over 5 year?”

“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...”

From the beginning I have had problems with my ears- fluid stuck- not able to clear- it's been 3 months and I continually have to plug my nose and blow to clear my ears to hear- pretty sure this is not normal- and my right ear is now displaced it hangs out different then it should.
I should have paid the same or more for real surgery not discounted to have this done in an office
Believe me
Go to a real plastic surgeon
I can't afford to have this corrected
I had to give a star - not able to give no stars”

“I am so excited to see the results that are now happening as I continue through the weeks after my procedure. I truly appreciated the email messages sent to remind me of what to expect and to feel encouraged that all will "shape" up as time goes by. I would tell others to take the chance to reinvent yourself through Sono Bello's procedures. I feel more positive about my body image, and my procedure was a confidence booster and a motivator to continue making healthy choices.”

“The team in Edina is amazing, truly care for the patient and made me feel so welcome. I'm only in the first two weeks and healing slowly but on the mend for sure. I'm so glad I did this even though its a little uncomfortable now, I know I'll be happy with the results. The doctors were caring, experienced and fun.”

“This is the best thing I have ever done for myself.
This is the best thing I have ever done for myself. Period. I wish I would have done it 10 years ago but I needed to try everything else first. I wanted to do it on my own. I've beaten myself up in the gym, competed in grueling athletic endeavors, maintained 1200 calorie diets and still the banana roll would not budge. My 17 year old daughter has it, my mom (at 110 lbs) had it, and I was at my whits ends to find jeans to fit in the butt AND in the waist. I guess you just have to be in the right place in your mind to finally say, I've tried everything else, this isn't a fix all for problems in your life but when everything else is in line and your outsides don't match your inside thoughts, then its time to take the leap. I'm today 2 weeks out from thigh and knee sculpting and I have seen such positive results already that I cry. The Dr was truly a sculptor and the 4 lbs of targeted fat that she removed moved me from frumpy to looking athletic and fit, just the look I was after. I never wanted to be skinny. Just better proportioned. More balanced. Now that balance is shows both on my inside AND outside.”

“I am so happy I decided to go ahead and get this procedure done!! It's been a long 20+ years that I've wanted to have something done with my tummy but didn't want to take 6 weeks off work and be placed under sedation for abdominoplasty. I did a lot of research and found sonobello to be exceptional! Everyone is so kind and Dr. Hatfield is amazing, we even had a nice conversation during the procedure, which relaxed me more. 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 really feel Sono Bello is falsely advertising stating they will work with all budgets. I went in for a consultation, and once they reviewed my application showing I was on disability and retirement, it seemed they didnt even bother before turning me down for service and referring me to a noname plastic surgent. 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!!!! Rated 000+ off the charts!!!”

My nurse totally corrected me on my over activity, to make sure the healing process happened the way it should, without complications. I am only 2 1/2 weeks post procedure and feeling wonderful about the results so far. Thank you all for your help and concern.”

“Overall it was a great experience. The front desk/administrative staff, nurses and Doctor were amazing. I even went in for another procedure 1 week after my first procedure so that should reflect how comfortable I felt in their service and the success of the procedure. 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. However, if you are fit and have problem areas or you need help or that little push of medication to kickstarting your efforts into that lifestyle, this is 100% the thing to do!!!”

“I recently had my sides and upper and lower abs done. While the recovery was alot more intense than I had anticipated , the results were amazing. I noticed a drastic improvement within a couple days of the procedure. I am now about 2 weeks out and it just keeps looking better. The surgery was easy and completely pain free. The staff at the Edina center couldn't have been more friendly and helpful.”
