Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
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.

Update** 2 1/2yrs post op
Life is good ladies... things are healing nicely. :-)
Still some tenderness along the incision lines sometimes on my hips. A select few spots that didn't react well to the sutures and has taken longer to heal in every aspect from pain to flattening to fading.. little pains in my butt!
The majority of my scar is fading well however.
I'm happy to report that my belly button has taken a turn to the better FINALLY. Just in the past 6-8 months or so probably. Thank goodness. I was worried. I was afraid I was stuck with is looking so unnatural and my scars around it being so visible. Sinsation in the belly button is still limited.
Boobs on the other hand, super sensitive :-) love it!! Scaring is slowing fading. Not as much as I would like, but progress from 2yrs ago for sure.
I'm feeling great. Happy with my appearance for the most part. Leaps and bounds above what I was prior to my mommy makeover...!!!
Hands Down The BEST Gift To Myself.
For any of you ladies on the fence about this.. DO IT! Yes. You absolutely do deserve it. Yes. It will empove every aspect of yours life and self esteem.
I would do it 1000x's over gain.
2 1/2 years makes a huge difference ladies!
Update pics.. little surprise for the hubs a few weeks ago. Sshhh. He hasn't seen them yet.
FYI: this would NOT have happened prior to my mommy makeover.
(You can see the stubborn scar areas on my hips in the one where I'm standing.)
I could have had the scars photoshopped out but- I've already come so far. I'm happy with the way I look and I know the hubs is as well. This is the real me. Scars and all.

Im Back and I Need help.
Hey guys
So it has been about 10months since my scar revision. Things are pretty good. I feel like I have healed very well. I'm much happier with my scar and belly button since the revision.
Remember way back when.. I had a issue with some indentation on my left hip/love handle area? I felt immediately that it was from the lipo. Some, (including my Dr) thought it may be from my compression garment. So I gave it time. And more time. And messaged regularly for months...And still I have it. It has improved some. Slightly! But still noticeable and still makes me self-conscious. Especially this time of year. (swimsuits)
So. All that said. I have made my mind up to have some liposuction done to this area in hopes of smoothing out the dents a bit. I have been reading on the smart lipo and think maybe that is the way to go. I'm hoping that between the smaller cannula and the laser, I can get a smoother look.
I'm a little worried because I'm having a hard time finding very info on realself about local patients that used local Drs for their smart lipo. I can read reviews on the Drs websites but I want more than just them cheerleading for themselves.
Anyone in Houston Texas that can give me an honest review of a local Dr for smart liposuction?

2days Post-Revision
Today is Saturday September 19.
2days out from my tummy tuck revision.
I'm feeling much better today. I got up, cleaned the house a bit, and even showered today:-) yay!!
I seen my incision for the first time today. And my new belly button. So far so good I guess. I'm not positive but I think dr Basu was able to get my scar a tad lower. That's great if he did. From what I can see under the Sterie strips, the line seems to be smooth and straight.
My goodness I hope I don't have a reaction to the futures like last time.
I'm super nervous about my belly button. The tummy tuck scar can always be hidden with clothing but the belly button will be visible in the summer.
Fingers crossed!! Dr Basu said they were using a different type of stitch this time so..
These r a few pics from befor my shower this evening. My fist look at the revision. One things I found out is that on the left side, he extended my scar all the way back. I was not anticipating that goodnight into surgery but I guess he felt it necessary to obtain a smooth look.
Is worried that I will look weird that my scars on both sides don't match now.
