WORTH IT$14,000
I am 6 days post op and so far my experience with Dr. Schwartz and his staff has been nothing short of incredible. He was so patient during appointments and answered my 18373838 questions. He always made me feel at ease. Stephanie, the RN at the office has also been amazing. She’s gotten all of my leave of absence paperwork for together for my job without any prompting, and answers emails incredibly quickly.I had both an extended tummy tuck and arm lift at the same time, I’m so glad I did them together. I stayed the night at their facility and also had an incredible experience. They took amazing care of me. Dr. Schwartz visited me a few times to check in, and so did the anesthesiologist!Overall I’m really, really happy with my results so far (still very sore and very swollen, but I know it will get better). I can’t wait to see what everything looks like when it’s all healed! Highly recommend!

Thank you! Yes, $14,000 for the extended tummy tuck (alone it was $7,900, but once you add in anesthesia and facility fees it was about $14k). The brachioplasty (arm lift) alone was $5,875. Both worth every penny so far!

Thank you for the update. I have been thinking about going to him for years. Just really scared of the recovery.

I totally get it. I was really scared too. The first 4 days of recovery are really rough, I won't lie to you. But it's been 100% worth it. Temporary pain for permanent gains!!

Day 8 Post Op

It’s the end of day 8 and I’m feeling pretty good. Haven’t taken any pain meds since day 5. Still pretty swollen in my tummy and my arms but it has definitely gone down! My only complaint is some really bad (what I think are) gas/stomach pains. They’re awful, and hurt way more than the incisions. I’m pretty sure they’re related to the antibiotics I’ve been taking. Today was my last day taking them so we’ll see how it feels tomorrow!

Almost 2 weeks post op!

I’m 13 days post op and feeling sooooooo much better. I figured out what was causing my stomach pains - seems like my stomach is not tolerating artificial sweeteners (which I eat A LOT of due to keto). This is probably because it’s extra sensitive after all of the pain killers and antibiotics. Hoping someday I’ll be okay to eat them again. Other than that, I’m feeling great! I can get in and out of bed by myself, I showered and washed my hair by myself and my range of motion is improving day by day. My tummy is still sore and just a tiny bit sore on my arms, but it’s totally tolerable and so much better than it was. I still have a pretty decent amount of swelling in my arms and all over my abdomen, but I had NO idea I had a shape underneath all of that extra skin. I’m so happy with my waist and newfound curves!!!

You tummy looks great. I'm
About the same as you around 12 days post-op but have a lot more swelling. Did you have that too?

Thank you! Yes, still very swollen. You can see it more from the side, but the bottom of my abdomen is still very swollen and that is super normal! It will go down with time!!
Thanks for sharing your experience so far! Please feel free to update any time on your progress.
