After 4 Kids, Finally Hoping to Get my Body Back - Anchorage, AK

I am so incredibly glad that I chose Dr. Cole to do my abdominoplasty and mastopexy. From the first consult she had me excited to get the procedures done. Dr. Cole is confident and knows what works. The consult and pre-op were pretty to the point. I had ample time to ask questions. The office staff and assistants are all very sweet and knowledgable. In all of the appointments, I had only one situation where I was not seen either early or on-time, and I think that was just because so many people were on vacation. And still the wait was minimal. On the day of the surgery, my experience at the Alaska Surgery Center was probably as perfect as it could be. I was so incredibly scared. But I had a great pre-op nurse who put in an IV that didn't even leave me with a mark after surgery. The anesthesiologist and his staff made sure I left there without nausea or pain. I was very impressed with how kind the environment was. The real positive of choosing Dr. Cole though comes from the results. While I'm only a couple weeks out of the procedure, I am amazed at how my breast lift turned out. My breasts look full and natural and are so incredibly tight (in a good way). My abdominoplasty scar is as low as she promised it would be! My belly button is still pretty hidden by tape but is also beautifully done. The day of the surgery Dr. Cole decided to do some extra liposuction beyond the original plan of some on the flanks, and I think that decision also made a really big difference in the results. She did additional shaping up high on my bra line and my back. It definitely was the worst discomfort of the whole surgery, but so worth it. I should note too that I wasn't charged extra for the extra liposuction. She just knew after studying my before photos that I'd have the best outcome with a little bit more work, so she spent the extra time on it. My post op appointments have all been with Dr. Suver since Dr. Cole has been on vacation, and although I can't vouch for his surgical skills, I have really appreciated his calm and kind personality during the appointments. There are not many options in Alaska for plastic surgeons, and I know many people consider going out of state to have their surgeries done because of this. But I truly feel that Dr. Cole is an incredibly talented surgeon and I'm so glad I chose her for my work. I'd recommend her 100%.
