Amazing! The office staff, medical staff and Dr. Ringler provided unparalleled care and skill in every aspect of my experience.
I had a full lift with incision around my entire mid-section, lipo on my flanks and fat reinjection into my butt. I am beyond thrilled with my results just six weeks recovered from my procedure. I never believed I would no longer have an "apron belly" or the additional fat above my hip area removed. Dr Ringler must be part surgeon part magician based on my beautiful results!
I also must say that this is my first surgery EVER. I have never had a C Section (three children delivered traditionally, hence my repair work now to my belly), no repair or elective procedures in my life and I am in my mid 40's. I was nervous, and truth be told, am a bit of a wimp when it comes to pain or feeling nauseous. I will tell you that I NEVER felt pain or ill during this entire procedure or recovery. Uncomfortable, yes, to be expected. But never pain, never regretting my choice, never unable to move or eat.
I would say without hesitation, if you are thinking of having a similar procedure, or any procedure, GO TO Dr. Ringler. I have done research in the area and he is the BEST.
I also have to say his staff, particularly Lauren (IFKYK) :) is one of the reasons I felt so comfortable. She is encouraging, answers all questions, shares experiences and expectations and is there through the whole process. And she was completely right about many things, but one thing in particular, my only regret in this whole process, was not doing this sooner!
