WORTH IT
After having my third child, I was cursed with the dreaded mommy apron that came with having three c-sections, heavy weight gain, and quick weight loss. No amount of eating clean or exercising helped me lose that apron and the layer of stomach fat that accompanied it. I was insecure and unhappy with my body. I desperately wanted a tummy tuck, but never gave myself a time line on when I would get it done. I was told about Dr. Roussalis by my gynecologist during an appointment discussing a laparoscopic hysterectomy that was going to be performed on me in December. My husband was with me and suggested that I give Dr. Roussalis a call to set up a consult for a tummy tuck and breast lift. I scheduled an appointment and was immediately impressed with the friendly office staff. I met with Dr. Roussalis for the consult and pre-op (we had already decided it was a go). His assistant was extremely kind, helpful, and supportive. Dr. Roussalis was professional and thorough. He was very patient with my 15 pages of notes and questions. He showed me before and after pictures of other patients and I was very pleased with the results. I set up the surgery date right away. During the time between the pre-op and surgery day, I had plenty of opportunities to speak with his office staff (oh, the patience those women must have) and I can honestly say that I have never experienced such wonderful support, service, and conversations by any medical staff in my life. The support and encouragement that was given was amazing (and very much appreciated)! The day of the surgery, Dr. Roussalis came in and joked with my husband and I. He was very friendly and professional. I don't remember much after that thanks to the anesthesia, but my husband said Dr. Roussalis came out and filled him (us) in on everything. Recovery was fantastic. The only downside were the drains, but they were needed, so I just sucked it up and moved on. I was so happy and in love with my tummy tuck, that I had completely forgotten that I had my breast lift as well. WOW! When I looked those girls, I was so pleased. My first follow-up with Dr. Roussalis was about 2 1/2 weeks after my surgery. It went really well! I can't express how happy I am that we chose Dr. Roussalis to perform my surgeries. My scars are thin, even, and barely noticeable (yes, even so soon after the surgeries). My husband is VERY happy with the results as well. :-) I will definitely go back to him for any other cosmetic procedures I choose to have done in the future!!!
