I had the usual 2 kids and despite losing all the weight just could not get my stomach back to it's original shape. I am otherwise happy with my physical appearance but did not want to spend the next 40 years obsessing about one body part. I am very happy with the results for me personally, but it is a major surgery with a rough recovery. This surgery is not for everybody and it helps to be in shape prior to surgery! 

Great review?

Dr. Bottger is board-certified and works with a reputable hospital. In addition, he is a classically trained surgeon with excellent technique - no gimmicks. I am in the health care profession myself and he answered all of my questions about the surgery itself knowledgeably. The results are impressive - I have seen some bad results out there, but Dr. Bottger is the real deal - no gimmicks and a classically, well-trained surgeon. I am so glad I found Dr. Bottger!
