- 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.

Almost 19 weeks post-op
So were at almost 19 weeks, and I'm starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Swelling is way down and the hard knot of healing has shrunk down to a small area mostly just below the belly button. I am also starting to get back some feeling in that area, so all of the numbness is slowly fading as well. I am ecstatic about how I'm looking.
3 months post-op
OK, so I'm at 3 months now and I'm feeling pretty great about how things are starting to look. I do still have some swelling, and some quite painful healing twinges, and I even sometimes still feel pretty tired, but it's getting better every week. Absolutely love Dr. Telepun!
11 weeks post-op
So, I'm rolling up on 11 weeks post-op and I'm back to working out, somewhat. I seem to get tired more quickly. Plus, I am having some swelling occurring below the belly button and am really quite surprised at just how much pain comes with the healing process. I know things are healing by following the pain as it moves inward from all around the lipo area towards the belly button area. It just really hurts, but I guess it just hurts to have nerves repairing their connections. And, I'm still extremely happy with my results so far, which should be completely back to normal by the 6 month point, I hope. The pics in jeans are from 9 weeks post-op, where I was staying to feel good and the swelling was really decreasing, and the ones in the t and undies is this morning. So swelling is occurring again.
Provider Review
Dr. Telepun is extremely knowledgeable, cares about what his patients really want and need, he's very realistic about what he can do for his patients, and he's even going out of his way to do my surgery on a Friday when he usually doesn't work on Fridays.
