Often Asked: Isn't That Expensive???

I’ve had quite a bit of ‘work’ done, the lates...
WORTH IT
I’ve had quite a bit of ‘work’ done, the latest being a tummy tuck and inner thigh lift. Sure feel VERY privileged for many reasons, including finding Dr. Bendor – Samuel. However, because my outward appearance has changed soooo much, people often ask me the ‘secret’ of success and I chuckle as I explain it’s more than FitnessPal/fitbit weight loss!! Then I get the question, “Isn’t that EXPENSIVE????” Again, I chuckle, as these are often folks that are signing into a $65k, $75k, $85K (or even more) truck that will be in their possession for 5 years at the most! Now, who’s spending the coin?? My procedures (over the past 3 years) didn’t cost anywhere NEAR their vehicle, (not even HALF) and yet, their ride is only for 5 years,,,,,, mine is for 25 years at least. Expensive?? NOPE, not at all! Some of the best coin I have ever spent! Can you even put a price tag on feeling and looking great….. or the ‘Smile of Wonder’ when you look in the mirror?? Don’t think so. :) ep

Dr Bendor-Samuel is a plastic surgeon in my area, I have been wanting to have eye surgery from him for some time now.Have you had any facial surgery done by Dr. B. ?Any of the reviews I have read are for tummy tucks ,breast or other body type surgeries.I have been reluctant as I can't find reviews for him regarding facial surgery.Thanks

Check out 'rateyourmd' site...just search for him there. Lots of reviews which has put him #1 in the area. I would also suggest you check his blog (he writes himself) on The Landings website. Note there in the Feb (or March) blog his international presentations on eye surgery. I haven't had any facial surgery...just VERY good advice and products from Tricia, The Landing's Skin Care Specialist. She is excellent with her knowledge and products.
As for facial surgery, pay the $100 consult fee and meet the man. It will be worth every penny just for his straight forward advice. Ask for pictures he has done. He has plenty!! Hope this helps. Sincerely, ep

Amen sister! I completely agree! People spend frivolous money on things that won't last a lifetime. A nice flat, tight stomach for the rest of your life - priceless!! ;)
