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.

One year pics
So I have been working out for the last month and I started my master cleanse on Wednesday AKA the lemonade diet and have lost five lbs! Things are looking up!
So busy that I missed my one year update!!
Hello RS lovelies!!
So I am a month past my one year update and things are well. So well in fact I have gained some weight... Almost 10 lbs. I have been so busy with work and kids that I have put myself in the backseat... Again. Kids, work, husband, church all kinds of excuses, right? So I have picked myself up and put myself back in the front seat. This was the whole reason I was doing this, for me and I have fallen back into old habits. No more!!!
Ok so now to my review.
I went to see my PS and everything is going well. The scar is lightening everywhere except the right side that I have been dealing with. I was using dermatix and mepiform but the scar is still thick and still really high. We are talking about doing a revision on the right side. He wants to give me 6 months, to drop a bit of weight and let the scar settle some more and see how it looks. He can't promise that it will lower but I am still unhappy that it has been showing above my clothes. Also now that it is swimsuit season, that makes it hard to find a two piece that covers everything.
With that being said, I have a trip to celebrate my 15th anniversary with my amazing hubby, so there is the motivation!
Another I have wanted to start is waist training. I have gotten my corset and I going to keep you posted on my results. I am two days in and I love it. It is a latex corset so there is a bit of a sweat factor going on, which is great and because of all the compression garments we were all forced to wear, it doesn't seem like a hardship. The most important thing is to exercise those muscles so they don't become lax and atrophy. The last thing you want is for you to spend all that money getting your abs pulled tight and your muscles waste away.
I will post pics soon...

Provider Review
Dr Louie is a great doctor. To the point and does really great work. If you are looking for someone to stroke your hair and tell you that everything is going to be alright, this is not the man for you. He is a straight talking and gets right down to business. He is caring, and soft spoken but he is not a coddler.
