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.

Still flat four years post op.
It's been almost four years since my TT revision and I remain flat as a pancake. The skin in my upper abdomen has loosened some more but that's probably just a result of aging. Just the other day I had someone ask me what I do to maintain such a flat abdomen at my age (almost 67) and I almost blurted out "I got tucked!"--that's my secret! However I just told her it's all about diet and exercise BUT I said, if you're interested in a quick fix, see Stan Valnicek, the best plastic surgeon in town! I said I had a friend who used him. I look the same as I did two years ago so I won't post photos this time.
Still flat two years post op
On May 8th it was two years since I had my TT revision. Since that date I've gained almost ten pounds. However, despite the increased weight my abdomen is still flat. That tight feeling (feeling like I had a belt around my lower abdomen) is a thing of the past. Numbness below my incision remains and that will probably never change. Having this surgery is the best thing I ever did for myself and I have absolutely no regrets.
18 Month Update
It's been just over a year and a half since I had my tummy tuck revision and although I've gained some weight (weight is 154 pounds) my abdomen is still flat. My skin has loosened up somewhat but at my age that's to be expected. My skin buckles when I sit due to poor skin elasticity. Most of the tightness to my lower abdomen has disappeared although the numbness remains. I still have no regrets and happy that I did this for myself.

Dr. Stan Valnicek is a wonderful surgeon and comes across as being genuinely kind. I'm convinced he truly cares about his patients and wants them to be happy with their surgical results. His patient reviews are impressive! If you choose him as your surgeon be sure to inform him of your expectations, something that I myself had failed to do prior to my first surgery. Stan's the man! I would definitely recommend him!
