How Much Does a Cellulaze Treatment Cost?

A: Cost of Cellulaze

The cost of Cellulaze treatments varies depending on how many areas need to be treated.  I would advise making a consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in your area who can evaluate the areas to be treated.  Then and only then can you get a firm price.  That being said, I have seen prices ranging from $2500 on up depending on the areas.  This is well worth it considering it is a single treatment that looks like it will last at least a year.  You won't need to treat repeatedly like you have to with other techniques.

How Long After Having a Tummy Tuck Can I Go Back to the Gym?

How Long After Having a Tummy Tuck Can I Go Back to the Gym?

A: Return to the Gym after a Tummy Tuck

I think once your drains are out and you are off pain meds, generally around 2 weeks, you can begin light walks on a treadmill of short duration.   I do not recommend resistance activity or abdominal exercises for 6 weeks.   Bottomline, every patient heals at their own pace and your surgeon has to individualize your recovery plan based on your body type, medical history, and pain control.   I wish you a safe and healthy recovery.

Tummy Tuck Scar Has Pulled Pubic Hair 1" Below Belly Button, Normal?

i performed my tummy tuck 3 years ago in Montreal. At first I was pleased with the results but with time realized that the doctor pulled up my pelvic region way too high up to my belly button. It looks strange, as if I dont have a lower stomach, I had to shave off a good part of my pubic hair above my genitals or else I have pubic hair growing 1 inch under my belly button which is right where my scar line is. It doesnt look anatomically correct. According to my plastic surgeon its normal...?

A: Abnormal Tummy Tuck

It is difficult to assess your result without pictures.   It is more likely that your belly button was placed too low, rather than the pubic area pulled too high.   A picture would help define this better.
