How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Hi Everyone, I'm a mother of two beautiful girls...
Hi Everyone,
I'm a mother of two beautiful girls and have decided to do a tummy tuck. At my biggest pre-pregnancy I was 165 lbs. At my lightest pre-pregnancy I was 100 lbs. In 2012 I lost a good amount of weight and got down to 135. Then I found out I was pregnant with baby number two. Needless to say all the yoyo-ing in weight has left my stomach a hot mess. Right now I'm 145 and ideally I would like to be 115. I have noticed that the more weight I lose the more my belly hangs. This leads me to believe that no matter how low my weight gets, I will still have a saggy skin issue on my stomach. I'm super self conscience about my stomach and showing it to people. I am bravely going to post my before pictures on here in hopes that it will give me the confidence and guts to go ahead and get a tummy tuck. I have a consultation with Dr. Leonard Hochstein on the 8th. I am both excited and nervous about the procedure. I have a few friends that have done it and some look great and some have had scarring issues and "elephant or dog ears" (not completely sure of the name). I am looking at getting both a tummy tuck and some lipo on my stomach, flanks , and thighs. If you have had any of these procedures please feel free to leave me a comment and share your story with me.

Consultation is Tomorrow ... AHHHHH!
Okay so tonight I am running around like a chicken with my head cut off. I'm doing my hair and shaving. I am not quite sure why I'm going through all this trouble but I feel like i need to look my best. I feel like everything is finally becoming real. I hope that he is able to tell me that he can get rid of all this nasty hanging skin and give me my super tight concave flat tummy that i had when I was 20.... or something similar lol.
