How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Tummy Tuck, Diastasis Recti, Breast Augmentation & Explant
I first went to see Dr Marco on the recommendation of my Pilates instructor - I had given birth to 4 daughters, the last being identical twins. I had lost lots of weight, even below my pre pregnancy weight & my stomach still was pouchy & hung down. I also saw that during the day as I hydrated it would become fuller & puffy looking. My boobs were flattish but that was to be expected after breastfeeding 4 babies & pumping 1lt of milk per day for 6 months for my twins.
My Pilates teacher pointed out that I had diastasis recti of up to 7cm & she couldn't help bring my muscles together & recommended surgery & specifically Dr Marco who had done her breast augmentation.
From the start Dr Marco made me feel comfortable. He explained the procedure for my stomach very clearly. His support staff backed him up well by finding out all I needed to know about costs for hospital, dealing with insurance. He also made my husband feel comfortable that we were making the right decision.
Dr Marco will only work in hospitals. He has over 30 years experience & has pioneered some endoscopy style surgeries.
Surgery was April 1 2011. I had 5 nights in hospital as I had both diastasis recti repaired, 600 grams of skin removed (no lipo required) & breast augmentation. He & his team visited daily & after discharge contacted me daily. When there was a suspected infection they took a swab straight away & put me on antibiotics. Results back later that day I was fine. My scars healed beautifully & my belly button looks amazing! (Implants were Silimed 305cc polyurethane textured)
The reason for my review after all this time is because recently I decided to have Explant Surgery. I saw one other surgeon who had written an article about BIA-ALCL here in Singapore. He was very nice but I decided to go & see my original surgeon Dr Marco. From the start, once again Dr Marco filled me with confidence that he could do the job. I barely had to ask a question (I had many written down) as he told me the answers before I could ask! He also didn't make me feel like I was being hysterical for being worried. He takes the time to listen: Yes, he would do enbloc, yes the implants & capsules & any fluid would be sent to pathology, what could happen afterwards etc his team are also always available to answer any question & also navigate the hospital & insurance billing process.
I had the surgery last Wednesday 11th September & it went textbook perfectly! I have recovered well, have had positive results from pathology but best of all Dr Marco gave me the best care & instilled such confidence in me. If you are in Singapore & considering any type of plastic surgery I highly recommend Dr Marco Faria Correa!
