After 3 kids and 3 c sections with a large amount of weight loss both prior to kids and after, I was really wanting a tummy tuck but was very nervous to have such extensive surgery. Dr. Hendrick made me feel at ease from day 1 with his professional and down to earth style. I was also weighing whether or not to replace my implants and I felt no pressure one way or the other to add an additional surgery. (I decided NOT to change my current implants). I am currently approximately 3 weeks post op from abdominoplasty with liposuction to flanks and back, and WOW! I am already in love with the results and I am still swollen with some bruising (as to be expected). Dr Hendricks follow up care has been pristine, his office staff has gone above and beyond to help me with any questions or concerns, and I am beyond thrilled with the result already and it keeps getting better! I have had consultations with a few other plastic surgeons in and around the NOLA area, and I have never found an office staff or doctor more professional, kind, and GIFTED! If you are considering any type of surgery, do not hesitate to consult Dr Hendrick. You will not feel any type of pressure, you will get an honest answer, and if you do decide to have the surgery, you will NOT be disappointed with the results.
