Dr. Galante is a great doctor!

I took my time finding a great doctor. Made a lot of appts for consultations. I picked dr G because I knew a few people that used him and loved him and also because I felt comfortable with him. The day of the surgery I knew I picked a great doctor because he held my hand the whole time I was going under. I highly recommend him to everyone wanting work done. I got breast implants of 450cc in each side. No lift.

Explant with lift (22 years inside of me)and back/flank lipo

Very happy with my results!! I was very scared to have this procedure from all the research I did and finding many other surgeries have not turned out so well. However, not only is Dr. Gus Galante truly cares about his patients by his texting and checking on you at very early hours to his workmanship and craftsmanship as a surgeon! His staff is phenomenal as well!whst a fun crowd!

1 day till surgery

Scheduled for surgery tomorrow. Not exactly sure how many CC’s I’m going to get because the doctor said my skin is tight. Going from size A to (fingers crossed) a full C cup, or possibly even a small D cup. Opted for the 5th generation silicone implant (only $400 more) and getting them placed under the muscle.

Dr. Galante and his staff are wonderful! Extremely caring and knowledgable. They keep you in good hands and informed throughout your whole procedure and check-up to make sure everything is running smoothly, which I really appreciated. Most definitely recommend?!

Dr. Galante is phenomenal and amazing!!!! Not only as a surgeon but as a human being!!!! He is the most compassionate and caring doctor and person!!! I’m deathly afraid of being under anesthesia and he was so calming and played Jimmy Buffett in the operating room before I was put under!!!! The surgery turned out amazing!!!! And his staff is just as amazing and caring!!!! That was for a breast lift and I can’t wait for my breast augmentation!!!! He is the greatest surgeon ever!!!! Thank you Dr. Galante and staff!!!!

$7,000Mommy Makeover

LolaLeeCola

Mommy Makeover: Full TT with muscle reconstruction and BA

I was a size 2 120lb athletic woman who gained 80 lbs with her first pregnancy and delivered 10.5lb baby boy via c-section. Lost 1/2 the weight only to gain it back with a subsequent pregnancy delivering a 9lb boy with a second c-section. It took me 6 years of struggles and habit changes to get to my goal weight of 125lbs. I’m was in better shape at 39 than I was in my 20’s. However, my core was toast. I had a 4” gap diastases and loose skin. It not only effected me in how I saw myself; but it affected my ability to do my physically demanding job. After much consideration, soul searching, and surgeon interviews I decided to undergo this procedure. It was more painful than I anticipated but I am thankful that I did and extremely grateful to my surgeon and his staff. They are knowledgeable, confident, and talented.

My Dreams Came True!

Doctor Galante was by far the best surgeon and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an amazing transformation! Not only did he make my dreams came true of having the body I’ve wanted but he made me feel not as nervous going into it. The office and staff was very nice. I had probably the smallest A cups that looked deflated from breastfeeding and I just was so ready for a great change. I am now a solid C low D and I just love it! I would never regret this decision and I highly suggest anyone who is wanting this to go ahead and go for it!

Tummy tuck at age 49

Wow...where do I even start. I know...I’ll start at I have six children...the first by cesarean...the four in between vaginal...the last child cesarean again cut in same bikini line and tubes tide!! Lol! I told my husband that I wanted a tummy tuck because gave you six children...whom I love dearly...but I want a flat tummy again...and I want it by 40. Well...needless to say it didn’t happen because I was being to nice when taxes came around and didn’t want to take the lump sum of money away from my family(that was how I felt personally) so year after year although the money was there...I couldn’t do it. Well...this year after not even really considering it anymore...my husband knew it was still a desire of my heart(although he didn’t want mento be cut on and thought I was beautiful just the way I was) he bought it up out of the blue! Now mind you u...I hadn’t said anything or even thought about it for the most part...but on the phone while he’s on lunch...he says “Baby how much is that tummy tuck again”? I told him...then he proceeded to say I want you to have it if you still desire it. I know you wanted it for so long and didn’t... LADIES!! When I tell ya that was my green light...my confirmation...I heard God voice clearly...lol! I ran through that door!! I booked the appt, put the down payment down...and set the appointment the same month within 2 weeks...yessssss....lol!! I will be taking some pictures and posting stages. Right now I’m going into my 2nd week...a little swelling...tolerable pain ...now. The first week was hell...but so worth it when I looked in the mirror and didn’t see that flab hanging over my panties. I’m not a big woman so for me it was mostly stomach from all those babies...I’ve always been small framed...now that I can see my stomach nicely shaped again...it’s a great feeling! My Dr IS PHENOMENAL!! You hear me...from kindhearted, professional, concerned, knowable, smart, witty, beautiful soul, to his whole entire office! I told my husband they are my family for life...so whenever I’m in the area I will always stop by and see them making sure I have a gift in my hand to present before them. I’ll be posting pictures soon ladies!

$1,600Chin Liposuction

Confidence is Back!

Amazing! He's a great doc. Sedated me with propofol I believe. Was a good nap. No issues waking up. No pain at all. Right side of face/mouth/lips are a little tightened; can't smile normal. But its getting better each hour. Happy Camper!! $1600 beyond well spent. Updated on 26 Sep 2018: Face Smile nerves are normal again. The Bruising is still nothing like what I thought it would be. Maybe i should be happy n not ginx it lol. He did a great job on the stiches as you cant even see them behind my earlobes. Updated on 27 Sep 2018: My first shower! Felt great until i had to tilt my head up for hair washing. That definitely didnt feel good. Going to work today and hide in my office for a few hours. Bruising is mostly yellowing already. Pain is almost not there unless u touch the area or move ur head in a direction too quickly. I washed the head bandage this morning too. Will put back on around noon. (4 hours without it at work). Updated on 28 Sep 2018: Still excited! I can tell a huge difference already even with swelling. Went to work for about 3 hours yesterday w/o the strap. I strangely wanted it back on immediately. All purple blue brusing is gone n now just a yellow tint lower on the neck. Still very tender and super hard in spots. Post op appmt is today to check on the dissolving stitches n such. Updated on 28 Sep 2018: Side view comparison. I look forward to being able to Snapchat or FaceTime with front camera like a normal person, instead of having to always hold the camera way above and pointed down to hide Chin. Not having to use dark contour makeup along my jawline and Chin will be amazing as well Updated on 29 Sep 2018: Post op went great. Obviously still swollen and bruising is all yellow now. Still happy happy! Worked a full 8hrs yesterday. Updated on 2 Oct 2018: Exactly one week today! Im actually forming a jawline for the first time in 6+ years!!! Updated on 6 Oct 2018: Really hoping the side view chin n neck, gets even less of a sloped slant, and more of a contoured look. But regardless im still happy its way better than before! Updated on 11 Oct 2018: Updated on 29 Oct 2018: Updated on 24 Dec 2018: Have a jaw line!! Love it still!! Also if I didn’t gain another 10pounds it would look even better lol. Updated on 28 Dec 2018: Done!
