Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
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.

An update and closeup shots!
Life is pretty much back to normal, although I have only been to the gym once so far post-Op, and only dared do gentle cycling and rowing!
The swelling has eased up considerably, and I've stopped wearing compression garment for the past 5-6 nights as my skin has been reacting to the heat and friction etc from constant binder use.
I've found a really good corset from Modcloth for day use, it's mesh material so light and breathable, yet sturdy as fully boned. Only thing is it's non adjustable, so you need to know your size well. Best of all, it's cheap! US$34.90 on sale now!
Unfortunately the dog ears on my incision ends looks quite horrible, and I still have marks/scars from the skin reaction to the steritape and bandage adhesives. Patience, patience! There's still a patch of wrinkly skin below my belly button, and there's a tiny fold/dog ear on the vertical incision just below the BB. My close up shots are a little nasty, but I thought I should provide for others to understand better.

Kind and reassuring doctor who seems like he has a lot of experience handling cases similar to mine.
