Morea Plastic Surgical Center of North Raleigh

Today marks day 7 of my upper blepharoplasty and I am absolutely blown away by my results. Dr. Morea is an artist and has truly perfected his craft. Not only is he the best surgeon, his bedside manner and calming demeanor immediately put you at ease. He is thorough and professional throughout the entire process. I wish I could give him 100 stars!

I completed my breast lift and implant surgery May 2024 and what an experience. The staff was amazing and treated me like I was their only patient. Dr. Morea spent over an hour with me at my first consultation explaining everything to me, providing his opinion and advice based on what I wanted and was extremely thorough. The nurses treated me with patience and kindness from start to end. I had a question post op and called Dr. Morea after hours. He called me back immediately to answer all my questions. At my first post op appointment I was a complete mess due to lack of sleep and adjustment to the physical limitations. The staff was so supportive and kind and never made me feel uncomfortable or judged. I am only 1 week post op today but my incisions look great and slowly improving. Highly recommend Dr. Morea and his amazing staff!

I have had 2 kids.. had terrible diastsis.. Dr Morea did my tummy tuck w lipo. The after was 2 weeks post. He signed sealed and delivered my TT!!!! The pain honestly more painful than I thought it would be… Not too much from the incision, but from my stomach feeling so tight, I felt like I could not stand up straight there, for my lower back would start to cramp!!! Dr. Morea his staff were absolutely amazing my first breast implant surgery so I trusted him with the second and my results speak for themselves. I finally have a flat stomach… My abs no longer hurt me and I feel more confident at 32 with two kids than I ever have before. Loving my results from my TT 1-3-2023.

First let me say I've had plastic surgery before. I know what I like in a surgeon. I had several consultations over butt implants. I was about to lose hope on the surgery I wanted by the time I had a consultation with Dr. Morea. At the consultation I knew for sure he was the doctor I wanted. Dr. Morea is very professional and a very nice man. He answered questions before I had time to ask. However he took any concerns or fears away and I was so confident that he understood what I wanted. He was so experienced and knowledgeable about my surgery that I left his office not being able to sleep that night. After all my efforts and long search I had found my doctor! Now that the process is over I hardly think for Dr.Morea as my doctor, he's a friend.
My surgery... wow what can I say but perfect and so easy. It went so much better and easier than I expected. Recovery was so fast. In a week I felt great. In two weeks I felt normal. In a month I was completely back to daily routines. I look and feel amazing. This was truly a life changing experience that I would not trade for anything. Thank you Dr. Morea and his beautiful sweet staff for the very best experience and the gorgeous new booty!!

5 days post-op from breast augmentation by Dr. Morea. No pain and only taking Tylenol since two days after. Recovery has been more uncomfortable than expected, but less painful than expected, so not really sure how to judge it. The discomfort is because it's hard to get comfortable at night and there's just lots of pressure on my chest all day. I know it will get better with time. I had surgery on a Thursday and feel fine working (desk job) on Monday. Right now my boobs look weird, but I knew this would be the case since I saw the progression photos. I had a post-op appointment today and everything looks perfect. Excited to see results in the coming weeks and months and feeling very confident in Dr. Morea's work! The whole process since the first phone call has been so easy and comfortable. Everyone in the office is wonderful and the experience has been excellent.

Extremely pleased and thrilled with my results. Dr. Morea is a true professional and an artist. My incision is perfection. I feel like Dr. Morea exceeded my own expectations for this procedure and went above and beyond to ensure I would have fantastic results.
100% recommend

At 4 weeks post-op now, I figured I’d start documenting my surgery and showing my recovery so far. First off, let me say, I totally underestimated the amount of pain involved in a mini tummy tuck. I think a majority of it is due to the muscle repair, so if you’re getting one without it, maybe it wouldn’t be as painful. He actually did what he called a “modified” mini tummy tuck, to get a little more muscle repair done right around the belly button and tighten the skin more. Because of this I have both an incision low on my abdomen and just under my belly button and around it. The lower incision is healing great; nice and thin so far. I hope the incision under my belly button starts healing more flat here soon. I feel like it’s not laying very flat, and that part has me a bit worried. Overall though, I feel like I’m healing very well. I just can’t wait until I can get back to working out like I like, and start sculpting my midsection even more. The only thing that I would say is a con, is that I kinda feel like my aftercare is not quite as involved as I would like. After my surgery I wasn’t seen again until 2 weeks post-op and my next appointment isn’t until 6 weeks post-op. I would just feel a little more at ease if I could see the dr more often to get reassurance that a couple of my concerns are ok.

I had a follow up appointment last week and was given the green light to both workout as I’d like, AND decide for myself whether or not to keep wearing the compression garment. It’s really been such a mood booster for me. I’m working back into it all trying to be careful, but getting back into hiit and strength training is just sooo nice. And I’ll be honest, I’m not wearing compression gear during the day anymore, but always at night still. It just feels so good to not have all the extra layering going on. I will say though, I’ve included a pic of one of my favorite purchases with this whole ordeal; it’s a compression tank top. I wear it every night under my compression wrap that was given to me after surgery, or just during the day on it’s one, as it actually gives a decent amount of compression on its own, and it’s really quite comfortable. I HIGHLY suggest purchasing yourself one or a couple, if you’re having a tummy tuck done. It’s soft and just protects your skin from rubbing against the compression wrap. I ordered mine on Amazon, and loved it so much, I bought another.
My scars are healing pretty well too. It’s hard being patient with that part though, as it’s smack in the middle of my tummy. My doctor also said at my appointment last week that I still have swelling in my abdomen in the space right around my belly button and between my obliques, which I was glad to hear is swelling and should continue to improve, as I just thought that was how it was gonna be. It makes me excited to see how things continue to improve. I’ll update again in 2-4 months!

Staff, nurses and Dr. Morea are extremely accommodating. I was comfortable throughout the entire process from consultation to post-opp. I especially like that Dr. Morea focuses on an implant size that will fit the dimensions of your breasts. He's is very knowledgeable and experienced. Highly recommend!

I went in for my breast augmentation on Wednesday 11/10/2021, Dr.Morea and his staff were amazing from start to finish. His work is worth every penny and I am so pleased with my result I can't wait for them to drop and fluff.

Dr. Morea and his team were amazing from start to finish (consultation to day of surgery to post-op appts). I have been hesitant for years about who to chose to do my breast augmentation and I am glad I chose Dr. Morea! This has been a dream of mine since I was 15. I am blown away by my results so far! If you haven't chosen your PS, you won't regret going with Dr. M and his team!
