WORTH IT$15,500
I had my consultation with Dr. German Newall Thursday September 17th. I think I waited for about an hour. It wasn't too bad I guess. The staff was very nice. I love that they speak Spanish. Easy going. That's always a plus. I don't like snotty people lol. It's the truth. Anyway.. Dr. Newall was also very nice. I liked him. The consult did feel a little rushed to be honest. It was all pretty much self explanatory and laid out. I guess cause I've been researching so much and I have a friend who recently had a tummy tuck from another doctor and so Everything sounded so familiar. I messed up on not making a list of questions. I went home asking myself things that I should've asked while I was there so that was a bummer. I'm sure I can ask at another time. I am getting a full tummy tuck, lipo on flanks, hips, back and upper thigh and fat graft to butt. Im not so sure about the upper thigh. I've read a lot of bad stuff on it as far as skin getting loose and flabby. That puts me on edge. He says he won't be aggressive. I guess I'll have to wait till my Preop appt to ask all these questions. I have made notes on my phone so I don't forget. And yeah so that's pretty much it. I'm excited. A little nervous. I know time will fly by. Yikes! I hope I am making the right decision. Let's just hope for the best. I've heard and read wonderful things about Dr. Newall. So I'm sure I'll be in good hands. God willing.

Um I also forgot to include other things in my post lol. Sorry. I am 33 yrs old, mother of 3 kids. 15,12,and 7. I have a wonderful husband. I consider myself fit. I work out 4-5 days a week. Hard core, high intensity is my preference but I have days that I don't have the energy and I'll have a low impact workout. (Rarely) I am so ready for this tummy tuck. I work out to look good and feel good and no matter how hard I try this excess skin isn't going anywhere. I hope I have a successful surgery and end with great results. I will be motivated more than ever to work on my body and health.

Great go for it. I'm in Houston but I'm concerned about taking time off work. Need 3 weeks. I'm getting breast enlargement, TT , lipo to flanks, hips, and inner thigh. Worried about lipo on thighs because I don't want any dimples. I agree w you on his before and after pics. They look amazing. Here a site that I got a lot of great info on tummy tuck: tuckthattummy.com.
Didn't know info about skin getting flabby on thighs so now I have another concern lol

No don't let me scare you away from that. Lol. They just say it's a hard area to work with. I think with the medial inner thigh it's hard to contour and the elasticity on that area isn't that good. That's one thing I did ask him cause I wasn't even considering my thighs so when he pinched my upper inner thigh and said he could use that extra fat for the bbl I was like um is it gonna stay flabby? And he said he wouldn't be too aggressive. On some Doctor reviews it says a lot of the deformities and lumps is caused from too big of a cannula and aggressiveness. You should read on it. I'm hopeful though that it'll turn out fine. yes 3 weeks sounds like a long time. I was told 2 weeks but you never know it may be longer. I chose December because the kids get 2 weeks off from school and work slows down a bit for us that time of year. We're self employed. I was happy with the surgery date. i will look into that site. thank you and good luck on your decision!

Dr. Newall did my inner thighs also, keep in mind I was older than you, but I was fit. He sugested it. The skin is saggy. Have you ever seen when a person looses a lot of weight. The skin on the tummy and arms, does not snap back. Same thing. My outer thighs, have one horrizonial dent. 4 drs. oppinions all were amazed, That he just took one jab at them.

Thank you for looking out Joyceintexas I'm a little nervous about that area but I trust him. If anything looks off I will be more disappointed in myself than anything. I'm agreeing to this surgery knowing the risks and so forth you know what I mean? But I thank you for giving me the heads up. : ))

Hi I originally was going to go to German Newell and I thank got I went to Dr. Cabral in DR. It wasn't the money. It was that Newells best work couldn't beat Cabrals mediocre work on a bad day. I also didn't any to be sent home or abandoned after sx and or pumped with ridiculous drugs that are not healthy for you. Please consider outside the US. I work in healthcare in the US and I will never ever have sx in the US in my life. We don't make money off of well people in the US. Overseas they do.

Hi. No I feel comfortable being in the US. It's the other way for me. I would never have anything done outside the US. But thanks anyway.

I agree as well. The U.S. Doctors must follow regulations where as the doctors in other countries we never know what they are required to follow.

So I just woke up from a dream that I was pregnant and had to put my surgery on hold. It seemed so real. Lol. That just can not happen. I love kids but 3 is good enough. Just thought I'd share. Tee-hee

That's funny that you should say that because in the pre-package paperwork that we sign, he's not liable for anything like that. I guess some had gotten pregnant and did not know when they proceeded with their surgery? Interesting paperwork to say the least, might post that later. lol jk
