After having Gastric Bypass surgery in 2013 and losing close to 140lbs regained roughly 25, I was left with a bunch of excess skin and decided this was the year to do something about it.
Because of the drastic weight loss and the amount of excess skin, it was recommended that I have the lower body lift. However, I was concerned that the LBL was not only more invasive but it also would flatten my buttock and the surgeon I was considering at the time did not perform the BBL.
After much research and review, I decided instead to stage my lower body lift and to begin with an Extended Tummy Tuck with Fleur De Lis.
After a few consultations, I also decided to go with Dr. Alkon.

Had my extended tummy tuck with Fleur de lis on Monday, May 18th with Dr. Alkon.
Day of surgery everything moved along beautifully. I arrived at the hospital at 6am as instructed and by 4:45 pm I was on my way home.
