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.

I am despondent with my results so far. It might be the emotional roller coaster, I have had three major meltdowns in as many weeks, but I feel like my belly still looks round and, well, fat. I can see the difference where she took 10-12 inches of skin and the difference where the lipo was done (hip rolls) is pretty evident to me, but I don't feel hopeful about the rest. And what the !@#$ are those dog-ear looking thingys on the sides of my hips???

Well, it's day 9 and I got my drains out today. Weird experience but certainly not painful or a big deal. My incision looks good so I don't need to cover it anymore, just keep wearing the binder for two more weeks. Bought another binder because I think I might have some swelling issues for a long time coming. Also found out that she excised 10-12 inches of skin from my belly and 600 cc's of fat from hip rolls. That grossed me out a bit. But, whatever, it's gone now!
Thinking about this surgery today and how bad it wasn't. There was/is pain. I stopped pain pills today because I don't think I need them, not because I just should. But the pain is bearable and goes away. It's uncomfortable sleeping, sitting, showering, etc. But again, bearable. My first week really wasn't that bad, ladies. And I seem to be recovering really well.
But, I have a long way to go until I look like many of these women did soon after their surgery. I have to remember, I am over 40, not a little person, and even when my belly wasn't so big I was never an "hour glass person." I had a HUGE belly, just look at my pics. And now I have ALOT of swelling that will take months to subside. But, it's worth it. I won't look like I want to tomorrow, but I will in a few months. I am trying to remember that.
So, if anyone is reading this and feels scared, or nervous about doing this... It's okay to have those feelings but just remember, it is NOT that bad. And it is worth it :)

Adding one week post-op pics today. I really don't see much difference but next to the pre-ops does make me feel better!

Although I had never met with a plastic surgeon she seems like the perfect one. Her credentials are impeccable and her work is stunning. Her bedside manner is professional, yet caring. I will always recommend her and her staff.
