Amazing Surgeon, Amazing Human
Five stars are not sufficient for Dr. Christopher McClendon and his wonderful staff! Since 2018, he has performed surgery on me and another family member a combined four times covering multiple different procedures ( rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, lower face & neck lift, brachioplasty, medial thigh lift, breast lift without augmentation, abdominoplasty, diatasis repair) several of which were for medical needs. He has the most down to earth, kindest, caring attitude of any physician
I had an extended tummy tuck, muscle repair, and lipo to the flanks and upper back on March 1st so I’m now 2 months post op. I was absolutely terrified to go through with this but it wasn’t near as bad as I had expected. I stayed on top of my pain medicine around the clock the first 3 days and my pain level/uncomfortableness was maybe a 3 out of 10 max. No regrets at all. Dr McClendon did an incredible job and I truly cannot believe this is my body. I can’t recommend him enough!
I’ve battled everyday with a thick middle area including lower pouch and flabby sides since my late teens. Dr McLendon told it is hereditary, and I don’t doubt it. I can’t help to think that my mid section’s disproportionate figure has to do with cortisol from life’s trauma. Regardless, I have worked hard on eliminating it by run three marathons, taking phentermine, CrossFit and 5:00 am boot camp for years. The midsection tightened up but never left. My last full marathon I would

36 Years Just got her tt- Georgia
I'm just a few days out, scared nervous and excited. I have lots of questions concerns lol. I've wanted this shortly after I had my child. I gained 80 pounds with my pregnancy. I'm 5"6 and 80 pounds is a lot in 9 months. Reading everyone's reviews and seeing your pictures has helped me out so much. I think it's important to have this support Updated on 6 May 2016: Today is Friday , I had the surgery Wednesday morning and it's painful but I am slowly feeling better. So hard to

Wanted a Smaller Nose for Years but Always Too Scared for Surgery. Macon, GA
I just got on this site, and this review is 15 years after the surgery, but I wanted to say what a wonderful experience I had with Dr. McLendon in 1999! I had always wanted a smaller nose, but I was always too scared for surgery, especially on my face. A friend of mine used Dr. McLendon for her rhinoplasty and she looked fantastic, so I decided to go in for a consult. Dr. McLendon was so nice, thorough, and professional. I told him what I wanted (a small, thin, upturned nose)
I have always had excessive neck fat (all of the women in my family have double chins and poorly defined jawlines), but after I had a baby 3 years ago, it got significantly worse. I am very slim, but you would not know it from looking at pictures of me from the shoulders up. I realized that it was only going to get worse with age, so I decided to have neck liposuction as a 40th birthday present to myself. My goal was to have a defined jawline and get rid of the prominent roll
I had this procedure done 6 days ago and felt like I had done a lot of research before getting it done. I failed to research the "after" effects. The swelling, nerve pain and numbness are nothing to take lightly. I am very uncomfortable but am hopeful that as the days pass this will subside. I did two treatments on my lower abdomen in a criss cross "v" pattern. I think I am almost back to my normal size from the swelling going down but the next few weeks will let me know
I had 3 areas done today because after a lot of weight loss my abdomen just wouldn't shrink any more after 3 years. So here it is an honest review. Did it hurt? Yes like hell. Was it unbearable? Not even close. Each section I had done was done separately so I was in the office for over 3 hours. The first section was with the large cup size covering my right side and front of lower abdomen. When the suction first went on it was a burning feeling. Much like a severe sunburn.

I now love my new breasts. - Breast Implants - Macon, GA
I now love my new breasts, I did not realize the way i would feel after surgery, very depressed for at least 2 months, did not sleep well for at least 2-3 months, they gave me 15 oxycotten to take and then nothing. Which I thought was a little wrong. And I told my dr. that, I thought I should have had a step down. But I would do it again!!!!
I had Facetite with chin lipo about a month ago. First of all I want to say that this procedure is NOT minimally invasive as advertised. A month out I am still tender and felt very beat up for over a week after the procedure. I did not feel ready to go back to work and had a ton of bruising and swelling even days after. At first I was hopeful with my results, but now after the swelling has gone down, I have bumps, contour irregularities, and volume loss that makes me look older
