47 Y/o, 2 Kids, Lost 100 Lbs 1 1/2 Years Ago. In Bad Need of a Tummy Tuck - Jackson, TN

I gained a lot of weight since my first child was born 26 years ago. I had tried all sorts of diets with very little to no results. I finally had the Lap Sleeve procedure done in 2013. As a result, I lost 100 lbs. I have kept it off for about 1 1/2 years. My sleeve surgery was a matter of having a better quality of life-not a vanity thing at all. I was so over not looking good in my clothes, so I made a consultation appointment with Dr. Yellen. He was very nice, professional, and straight forward about what I could expect. I scheduled my surgery not long after the consultation. My tummy tuck was pure vanity! I would do it all over again today knowing everything I know now. I did pay for the pain block - which was worth EVERY PENNY ($300)!!!! I never had terrible pain. I had one spot on my incision that would "burn" a little bit. My drain sometimes would "pull" and that would be uncomfortable. It did hurt to sneeze or cough. I am VERY pleased with my results thus far. I'm only 8 weeks out. Every person that I had dealings with at Tennova Healthcare in Jackson, TN was extremely nice, courteous, professional, caring, and compassionate. The whole experience was great!!! I highly recommend Dr. Yellen for any cosmetic procedures you might need.

I also see Dr. Yellen's wife for skin care. I have laser hair removal done there. The laser is fast and it doesn't hurt. The hair removal results are wonderful! I have just had one cool sculpt treatment there as well. All of the office staff are very professional yet friendly!
