Dr. Caridi is amazing! He is very blunt about his expectations and genuinely wants you to look and feel good. His liposuction on my arms is very smooth no bumps at all, no one ever knows I had it. I trust his work so much I sent my mother there for her mommy makeover.

good to see ur happy. Just maintain a healthy lifestyle and you will look even better..
Thanks for posting your story. Can you say again what all he did on your breast surgery? The reason being I am seriously thinking of traveling to TX to have him do mine. Your breast procedure outcome is amazing! But when I go to his website I don't see the same thing. Now the regular BA's look pretty good on most but the BA/BL and BAR procedures look lumpy and nipples crooked and different levels on right and left. Now that just might be my cell phone. Or his pic quality. My apologies in advance if its my phone.
Hi! Sorry it's been forever but I figured I'd answer in case anyone else came across the same issues. I feel like I saw the same thing on his website. I remember thinking the nips all looked a bit crooked. I haven't had that problem so I don't know if it's because I got lucky or what. My BAR was a lift and reduction with an implant. I had puckering when I got my BAR surgery but he said it was because my scar adhered to my muscle or something? I have weirdly strong pecs too so that was part of my issues. So my second surgery was to release the scar and switch from under the muscle to over the muscle. I also got bigger implants this time around. I can say that Dr. Caridi is very genuine when it comes to his patients. When I had the puckering he immediately saw the issue and wanted to fix it. I didn't have to have an awkward conversation with him about the problems it was just handled. Hope this helps!
Oh and why didn't he want to use the ADM?

Worth it

Does anyone know how to change the review from not sure to worth it?
Also just an update... Healing is going really well. All the bumps are starting to smooth out since I'm rolling them with a pin roller. I am in love with having a flat stomach! Putting clothes on doesn't send me into an emotional spiral anymore. And I can now put on pants without getting an immediate muffin top. Seriously amazed. The boobs healed way faster than I thought. I have zero pain from them. The lipo pain isn't bad it's more inconvenient and annoying. The rolling doesn't feel great though.

Post op day 1!

I made it through to the other side! So happy with what I have seen so far. Especially with my boobs! 590 cc fits me very well. Gave me the fake look I wanted without being too crazy. My top half isn't hurting too badly but my lower stomach and legs are pretty sore. Getting absorbing pads under my garment by my legs was hell. Then getting my stockings over that was even worse. The stocking slipped from my moms hand and popped my leg which made me yell and also laugh which hurt even more. I learned a few things. One is always ask for anti nausea pills even if you don't normally get nauseous with pain pills. I never do but yesterday was not fun. Two is, a moomoo is the best thing to bring for the doctors to put you in after surgery. They make zip up ones at Walmart for $15. So easy to put on and off and it goes down to your knees. Three is, don't get compression socks that have holes for your heels. They ride up and cut off your circulation around your ankle. That's all folks!

Looks so good!!
Your boobs are perfect!
Thanks y'all! I'm so excited!!
Awesome tips and congratulations! I'm taking the plunge in an hour
Awesome!! Good luck!
two questions- I was thinking of switching to caridi from my current doctor. In your review you have it as "not sure". Do you recommend him?
Yes I do! I had not sure bc I hadn't had the procedure yet. I need to change that
