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.

I am now 3 weeks post op, have returned to work and now know what swell hell is. I still have one drain which is leaking now yuck. I knew I was going to be swollen but holy geez I didn't think it would be this much. I did have a little area near the incision that wasn't getting enough oxygen fortunately the black peeled of to reveal healthy skin. You can see in my post op picture where the skin had started turning color. I will post more pictures after the last drain is removed whenever that will be. I can still tell the results will be great the swelling is just frustrating.
Day 4 Post op. Sorry I haven't posted anything...
Day 4 Post op. Sorry I haven't posted anything I just haven't been up to it. The first day the pain was awful and I am still in pain but can move around a bit now. There are moments in the first day you will question your sanity on why you would do this to yourself - is worth it but the first day sucks. Thank god for my fiance he has been such a great nurse! I had to take the foam bandages off due to my skin having a nasty reaction to the glue so I have a few very ugly sores from that. Other than that I can tell this is going to look fabulous. :) I am posting a picture today but I can't stand up straight yet so it really doesn't show how great an improvement there is yet. A few pointers for those who haven't had the tummy tuck yet.
1. Get a recliner! I borrowed one from a friend and I couldn't imagine life without it right now.
2. Stay on top of your meds! Its no fun sleeping through med time and awaking 3 hours later in a lot of pain.
3. Start taking milk of magnesia the day of surgery - it will still take a few days to go number two and that pain is almost worse than the surgery pain.
3. Whatever you do don't cough!!!!!!!
4. You will tire easily. Take naps as needed.
As a matter of fact its time for a nap now. :) I will post again soon.

4 Days away now! We live a few hours away from where the surgery will take so we reserved a hotel at the doctors request. Kids are set up with a sitter and dogs are set up with the kennel. Now its time to prep the house. I'm so excited to get rid of this tummy.
Provider Review
So far I am very happy with Dr. Jones work. Its only day 4 post op and I can tell already how great my tummy is going to look - I never imagined it would look this good. I have to say his prices are very reasonable far lower than the other surgeons I interviewed but quality was not sacrificed. If I decide on any future procedures I will be going back to Dr. Jones.
