I had my procedure done 19 days ago and I’m about to hit my third week mark. I had my drain removed on day 17 and the healing process has been great physically but mentally pretty crazy. By crazy I mean there’s been ups and downs which is normal! I’m very excited and happy that I did this I just get moments where I feel impatient with the healing process because as a momma I want to get back to taking care of my family.

after a fairly brief consult, i scheduled my abdominoplasty for november 1st! the surgery is actually two weeks away, but it seems de rigueur on realself to begin chronicling preoperative concerns and expectations as a means of tracking a full journey, and i think this makes sense. plastic surgery, after all, deserves more reflection than a yelp review of a teeth cleaning. and this site seems like a solid community of supportive individuals who have all devoted a lot of time,

Doc Hughes and his staff are very 'touchy/feely' - made me feel comfortable, to the point of being uncomfortable. It was like he paid extra attention in medical school to "Bedside Manner 101".

Dr Hughes was very friendly and seemed to be the perfect pick for my procedure, but I was wrong. This man will fool you, he is helpful and seems great until something goes wrong. He will not return your phone calls and has his wife call you back who is not a nurse and has no medical background, and to top it all off the other lady in the office is completely lost she knows nothing at all. This is very unprofessional. I went in thinking that I would come out beautiful and be happy
