Almost 69 Years Old- Been There Done That

Hello Real Self readers,

My name is J. Peters and I am so glad to bring this testimonial to you. I started my discovery process by combing through many doctors on this site and have landed firmly in the arms of the office of Dr. Anita Patel in Beverly Hills, CA.

Her ability to listen to patient concerns is far above and beyond any other normal consultation experience I have undergone, and I have had plenty. Perhaps this has something to do with the fact that she is a member of MENSA, and has an incredibly high IQ. But with that said, she is a delight to talk with and has a great sense of humor on top of it all. She is incredibly observant and assessed my concerns with skill while taking into consideration the smallest details of any procedure we discussed. She explained them fully to me so that my comprehension was complete with regard to the intended results vs. my expectations. She even managed to suggest some alternatives to me as options with lower costs and less downtime, which is something other Doctors have not done for me before. Her ability to pay attention to the smallest detail is a real plus when you consider the "slam bam thank you mam' attitude of most surgeons. I guess what I am trying to say is that she has vision, she sees clearly, she is an ARTIST as well as a Cosmetic Surgeon and I felt SAFE with her from the very beginning.

I went in to discuss several procedures, Tummy Tuck/Lipo to back of Hips/ fat injections into my outer Libia, along with a scar revision on my right breast from a botched job many years ago. (I just got sick of living with his mistake) These were areas, which at my age, were in bad need of some help.

First we discussed the fat transfer and she suggested a procedure called Thermiva. I had my first one of three. June (Dr. Patel's wonderful assistant)who talked me down and into a complete state of relaxation, made it possible for me to actually enjoy the procedure. June is the perfect compliment to Dr. Patel and she has a wonderful way about her which totally disarms any fear you might have with the work at hand. She was sweet, attentive, and most adept at her duties, plus I really liked her! Now mind you, this procedure stimulates collagen both inside and out of the vagina. Wow.....it actually felt so warm and wonderful, I was sorry when it ended! Luckily I have two more sessions to go...and even after one session, I could clearly see the difference in my puffy little lips down there. Needless to say the puffy was indeed on the inside too.....now that made my hubby really happy.....so I have two more sessions, have put down the deposit for my tummy/tuck.

Dr. Patel also did the revision on my breast....it looks just amazing since her stitches are so very fine and her lines are perfect. Her motto is "you're not married to the stitch", simply put, if she doesn't like the way it looks she takes them out and does them again...now that's a doctor you can trust....

Now that I have told you just how wonderful she and her staff are....please do me a favor, leave room for me to get back in with her for the rest of my procedures! All kidding aside, I will post pics before and after of my tummy tuck and boob restoration! May God Bless and keep you all from making the wrong decisions on a Doctor to trust with your beautiful self.....
