- 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.

Today's the day I find out if I win the makeover contest...wish me luck! Winning will definitely help me get my makeover sooner than later in 2012! :)

I'll have to post a more thorough update a little later...but I'm wondering if anyone has Over the muscle or subglandular implants... seems like everyone I'm reading about on RealSelf has unders...
I entered a contest that I'm hoping I win where I can have a good portion of my mommy makeover paid for...
Well, the doc who is sponsoring the contest is a good $2000 more than the others I've consulted with. BUT, if I win, I'll only have to pay $2000 out of pocket, instead of $5000 or $6000 by going with someone else and paying it all out of pocket for the tummy tuck... so we shall see. Announcement comes on New Year's Eve. Even if I don't get top prize (entire tuck paid for) 2nd place is better than nothing in a situation like this. Happy healing ladies! Enjoy your holidays, your new bodies, and the new year! :)

After today's consult, not only do I know I want to do this, I think PS#4 is the doc I'm gonna go with. From top to bottom, it was a fabulous and informative consult---10 times more informative than any other one I've gone on. They gave me procedure specific DVDs to watch prior to the consult, I tried on different sized implants (and the RN took pics on my phone for me to show my hubby), and received a buttload of information. I even got to see a 800cc implant. That sucker was HUGE!
The doc was fabulous. All questions I had written down to ask, he answered before I could answer. Whole visit was a little more than two hours, and I never felt rushed in the least. He also told me that tummys are his favorite procedure. I left feeling happy, excited, confident...
I still have two more consults to go to this week. I'm going to go, just so I can see, but I really believe PS #4 is my dude. #2 is off the radar, period. Nice enough doc, but just not gonna work out for me. I can't find PS #1 on the ASPS or the ASAPS, so he may get dropped too, despite the in-house financing.
After these final two consults, I think I'll narrow it down to the two that clicked with me the most, the two I have the most confidence in, the ons I think will provide the best results. Then I'll set up another consult each, and choose my doc. I'd love to get things popping by March.
On another note: I checked out Dr.Pousti's website. He's a TOP doc here on RealSelf, out in La JollaCA. His site is fAB! If I was in Cali, I'd definitely be seeking his services. He had some pics up of his surgeries...helpful, but mighty gross looking, skin all up, insides exposed...but I love it, because now I know what to expect.
Never been more excited to be doing this for myself than I am now...
