WORTH IT$8,000

Hello I am 36 years old and 188 pounds.. after having three children via csection my stomach looked horrible. I decided to go with doctor marco pelosi senior of bayonne nj. I thought about going to the Dominican Republic but changed my mind after hearing so many stories of infection and death. I read a few negative reviews on doctor pelosi but I knew a few people who had their surgery with doctor pelosi senior and they looked great. I went for a consultation in February and was told I needed liposuction. I decided on lipo of arms flanks hips back and tummy tuck. Doctor performed tumescent lipo a week prior to the tummy tuck. I was awake had no pain it was done on a Tuesday and on Saturday I attended a baby shower and had massage. I have no brunch and only felt a bit sore. Yesterday was my tummy tuck and today I had a follow up appointment. I was not intubated for the surgery I was given iv sedation there was an anesthesiologist there and she monitored me during my surgery which took 3 hours. I am in pain and cann stand straight bit so happy of my results. I will post before pictures and once I have drains removed will post after. I was instructed to sleep on a recliner I am on antibiotics and percocet. Doctor Pelosi and his staff treated me like a queen I cant complain of say anything negative about them. My stomach is so flat its unbelievable I have no swelling or brusing. If anyone has any questions I would be mpre then happy to answer any questions. As I said I will post after pictures once I can remove my garment

have you updated this since April? I'm thinking of doing the same procedure- abdominal lipo under tumescent anesthesia in the a.m. followed by TT with MR under twilight anesthesia (not general, the other kind- think that's what its called!). Are you pleased with the results? Do you think the recovery has been "easier" than those who have general anesthesia? Doctors using lipo then TT say it causes less trauma to abdominal wall since they don't completely separate it, just remove fat with lipo then use the space left to pull skin down. The doctor I'm talking with is an OB/gyn with excellent references- no concerns about him safely cutting my abdomen open(since he's done that countless times for C-sections, hysterectomies, etc. etc.) guess I'm just concerned about aesthetics. His before/after pics are impressive. any info. you can provide about your recovery, what you've learned, etc. would be much appreciated!!

Sorry I haven't updated since April been very busy with school. I am happy that I decided on the local anesthesia I was able to be very alert right after the surgery. I did developed dog ears and the doctor has agreed to correct them in a few months. I read this was a possibility. I am happy with my results but do have a few issues I seem to be having asymmetry issues on the flanks the left side is smaller this can be due to swelling or maybe the lipo so I will be talking to the doctor about this at my next appointment. The rrecovery was difficult I was notaable to stand straight up until 5weeks but this is different for everyone. I'm 8 weeks now and I still have swelling and some areas of my stomach feel hard and numb. I have lost almost 30 pounds so far. I have been walk 3 miles a day for the past two weeks 4 days a week. I had alot of stretch marks the tummy tuck got rid of alot but not all. I have three children and during the recovery could not cook or do house hold duties would get very tired easily and lost my appetite.

Yes i went to senior and yes have lumps ican feel them i think they r fat deposits he didn't remove i am also uneven one side of my stomach is a bit bigger then the other side. I can send u private pictures i am working out and trying to loose weight and tighten up i have also been researching smart liposuction which i am interested in trying next year. I spoke to the doctor and he tried to fix the unevenness with additional liposuction but i still see the difference i didn't have work done on my butt he did liposuction the area above my butt. I haven't returned to his office i have decided to save up work out and go else where
