I had my Tummy Tuck 2 weeks ago. I really researched this procedure and saw 3 other doctors for a consultations and by far Dr. W stole the show. What an awesome experience with him and his staff.

I went to 3 doctors for consultation, and all 3 said they would do it as long as I felt I was at a stable weight for me. I had lost around 40 lbs and maintained my weight for a year 184. Yes would have like to have lost more before my surgury but I am still thrilled with my result and looking better eveyday. I would do it again in a minute. They do say there are more complication in bigger women. I had noe it all went so smoothly...I hope that helped, I will post updated pic soon. Good luck

Hello. I am moving to the area and would really love a tummy tuck also! Thanks for sharing your story! I was wondering did any of the other plastic surgeons seem hesitant to perform the tt due to you being a little bigger? I dont mean that in a negative way. I am 218lbs and really just want information on if I can get this done or not.

My surgery was $9000 and well worth it. Go to carecredit.com I charged $6000 at $150 a month and paid cash for the other $3000. Most doctors do not have payment plans as far as I know...I just love my results. Good luck
