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.

Lovehandle marks
Here's the video of the marks on my livehandles, plus a video of how my breasts behave 13 months after surgery.
FINAL RESULTS!
Best thing I've ever done for myself, 13 months later!
I increased from a C to a D/DD, but my body shape didn't change much, just the fullness. I love that there is definition higher up in my chest now, as it gives the illusion of cleavage even when my breasts aren't pushed together. I still wear a push-up bra, and can easily walk without a bra at all when I so wish. They are still asymmetrical, though I doubt anyone would be able to tell unless I leaned forward or they were pushed together. The liposuction did leave marks on either side - about the size of two fingers on the back of each lovehandle. Thankfully, this is part of Dr. Bednar's guarantee, so eventually I will have this altered. At that time, I will also have the fat that has now settled in my double chin rather than my thighs removed. Have I thought about having this done again for more fullness? Yes. If I win the lotto, I probably will. Implant free and so happy. :)
Hardest part was not drinking for 3 months after surgery. Seriously.
Best of luck to each of you on your journey!!
**you may notice that there are 'new' beauty marks on my body in the new photos. I edited them out of the pre-op images because I did not want to be recognizeable with my belly and unflattering angles as a model. They were otherwise completely unedited, I assure you.

Wanted to give an update!
Since my last update, not much has changed. I've stopped wearing my compression garments (I've never known freedom like this!! Enormous sigh of relief!), am still not drinking (despite working in a liquor store - boo!), and have begun modeling again finally! So nice to be approaching normality again!
Overall, I'm happy with my body, but am disappointed by how little fat was actually removed. My measurements are almost exactly the same as they were before, but my shape is much improved; I gained one inch in my bust and lost one in my waist. My love handles are shrunken, but still there. I went into this wanting substantial changes in fat removal, but hopefully once I return to a healthier menu and begin working out things will fall better into place. I still don't want to break a sweat and risk losing fat - I need every last fat cell at this point! At the beginning of October, I will be focused on toning up. Until then, still eating lots of carbs to keep the fat happy.
One breast is still significantly larger than the other, which bothers me, but probably only me. My boyfriend and I can't wait to actually touch them - I've still had to enforce a hands-off policy for the health of the fat cells, haha!
The scars are still deep purpley red, but they are small and beginning to fade. I've stayed completely out of the sun all summer to make it so.
I swear, I'm counting down the hours to when I can live life normally again!! Happy Bednar Babe! I'll be sticking with my 4/5 rating and changing the final review to Worth It. I'll still keep you updated, but only here and there. If you want to do this procedure, consider Dr. Bednar - he really did a great job on me!
