Tummy Tuck, Liposuction, Breast Lift, then Breast Implant - Seattle, WA

Posted by Deborah/amazed

Where do I begin??? Dr. S from the first phone call with her staff to meeting her and now on my own with absolutely perfect and beautiful results, what could be better! Professionally, I had interviewed Dr.s since I was about 37 yrs old. I actively started again at 55. I almost hesitated with Dr. S, because I kept reading conversative conservative and I worried what that might mean. I didn't want to look like something freaky either. First and foremost I wanted what I had before children. I just wanted it tucked and lifted and filled, if needed. Let me tell you, Dr. S is sensitive and very skilled. I tried different ways of asking her different questions to see if she would be able to give me what I wanted. She wouldn't do what she knew wouldn't work. But she found a way to give me more than I ever expected and beyond. I look amazing. 57 years old and in many ways I feel more beautiful than I ever did at 18 or 21. This is a Dr. I trust. She is personable and professional. She has walked me through this amazing experience and it has been well worth whatever my part was in it, physically, emotionally, and financially. I love to be active and she will tell you, that is important to our success. Get going and get it done, whatever your dream....

Besides being a highly skilled surgeon, Dr. S is a very warm, caring person. I would recommend her to anyone - especially other men, like me.

Thrilled with my Results! - Seattle, WA

Dr. S is awesome! She did a tummy tuck on me a couple of years and I am thrilled with the results. I had two other surgeons to choose from but I chose Dr. S and I am so glad I did. I also go to her for fillers. The results are so natural. I wouldn't go to anyone else. She is the best!! Thanks Dr. S.

Worth It! - Seattle, WA

Dr. S came highly recommended by a my personal physician. I consulted with two surgeons prior to meeting Dr. S and felt immediately comfortable and confident with her. I knew I wanted her to preform my surgeries and was pleasantly surprised when her price came in thousands lower than the other doctors! I knew exactly what to expect during recovery and my results are fantastic! I would absolutely recommend Dr. S as well as recommend "mommy make-overs" after multiple childbirths!

Best Decision Ever!

Posted by Southworth9674

Dr. Sowder made me feel extremely comfortable with my desire to have a tummy tuck. She is professional, frank, and gives realistic expectations of the post surgical outcome. I have followed her pre & post operative directions to the letter and my experience has been exceptional! I am thrilled with my results thus far. The office staff is terrific too. They are professional, patient with questions, and always on time.

I'm Still Me, Just a Happier Me - Seattle, WA

Posted by Seattle7574

I visited over 20 doctors over the past 5 years and most would say, "go bigger". That always rubbed me the wrong way. I was an A cup but I also have a small frame and love to be active, so it was important to still feel like "me" after the procedure. Dr. S understood that, even before I said anything. Above all, she strives for a natural look, and I really appreciated her approach. She was considerate, supportive, knowledgable and bottom line - VERY GOOD AT WHAT SHE DOES. I couldn't recommend her more highly. I only wish it hadn't taken me so long to decide to do it!

Prevelle Works

Posted by sds8507

I love Dr. Sowder. She will not do a procedure unless she feels comfortable doing it. I asked her for about a year to try and fill in the lines around my eyes and she said she did not feel comfortable with any of the fillers currently out on the market. When I saw her after Christmas she told me about Prevelle. She is very knowledgeable and always takes her time with me. I highly recommend her.

Well Done! - Seattle, WA

Real Self I began my journey by researching ad nauseum the procedures and local surgeons. I selected 3 surgeons to interview and Dr. Sowder blew the other 2 out of the water. Dr. Sowder is the consumate professional, and she had the ability to put me at ease immediately. She has an amazing portfolio of before and after photos of explanted / lifted breasts. I left her office feeling fairly confident that she was the one. I scheduled my pre-op with her office the following week. I am so grateful for Dr. Sowder's expertise and kindness.

Fat Transfer to Breasts - Seattle, WA

Posted by Laura76992

Realself - I found the names of three doctors in my area who do fat transfers to breasts, and had consultations with them all. The first dr. said I didn't have enough fat (ha! Look at those before pictures!) but he didn't look at my lower body - I was wearing jeans. The second dr. gave me an estimate for fat transfer and augmentation, as well as the third dr. I went with Dr. Sowder because I thought her fat transfer results looked better.

I have gone to Dr. Lisa several times over the last several years. I highly recommend Dr. Lisa for any cosmetic surgery. She listens to your concerns and you become a "team" with her! Her staff is wonderful too.

Can Hardly Believe It's Me in the Mirror - Seattle, WA

Posted by Marian in SE WA

Initially I chose Dr. Sowder because she is a woman and would understand my womanly concerns, she is an artist [really truly--she paints!--and she sews!] and would more likely share my vision and be able to craft the look I want, and she is within reasonable driving distance. In every category of care, Dr. Sowder is excellent. I was pleased with the process, now am pleased with the result. Dr. Sowder did a beautiful job on my breasts--she is truly an artist. As an artist myself, I wanted not just to make art, but to *be* art...not have to cringe when I look at the mirror. I wanted not to be voluptuous, but a "shapely small" and Dr. Sowder achieved the look I asked for. I'm so pleased! My only regret would be that I didn't do it sooner.

Exactly What I Was Looking For - Seattle, WA

Posted by muchhappiernow

Dr. Lisa Sowder has the perfect blend of professionalism, competence and caring that one finds only in the very best doctors. I can't imagine making a different choice or being any happier with the experience and outcome of my procedure. If I had any criticism at all, it would only be that the pain after the procedure was more than I anticipated, but it may very possibly be the case that I didn't fully absorb information about augmentation recovery that I was given, due to instantly being so comfortable with Dr. Sowder and immediately feeling ready to complete the procedure upon having my consultation with her. That said, I would absolutely choose Dr. Sowder again and again, and I'm sure my recovery is exactly what it should have been, and while harder the first few days that what I'd expected, ABSOLUTELY worth it!! :)

Best Experience - Seattle, WA

Posted by Cfromtacoma

After two children and some weight gain my breast's were super large and heavy. I could never loose the weight I gained there. Plus I was tired of my nipples pointing down and almost to my belly button (yikes) From my first appointment I felt super comfortable with Dr. S. She was nothing but helpful, supportive and had all the right answers. Her staff was also just as friendly and helpful. I had been to two other offices and felt nothing like this. I knew even though I would drive from Tacoma it was worth it. A+++Pre to post same wonderful care and service! Now I feel and look so much better.
