Worth It
Spent: $8,000 in Grand Rapids, Michigan

After three children I had severe sagging skin. I was left with the choice between the hip to hip scar or the stretch marks and sagging. I had my full tummy tuck two weeks ago today and I am thrilled with my decision.

Recovery is not easy and there are several things to be prepared for other than the scars. You have to be prepared to walk like a granny for a couple weeks and accept the fact that you will be swollen for at least a few months.

I am thrilled with my results and look forward to looking in the mirror a year from now at my final result!

My Doctor:

My rating:
She was very informative and I did not feel any pressure whatsoever. She explained the benefits and the possible side effects. I searched for a surgeon for a couple years before making my decision. I saw several before and after photos on various web sites with very uneven and ugly scars. My incision is low and a perfect thin line.
