Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
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.

I’m not surprised to see this doctor license is on probation given he performs surgery in a check up room instead on an actual surgery center or medical surgical room with proper equipment.
Looking back when I went to Dr. hagstrom I didn’t know any better and didn’t do proper research as what he did was illegal. I had revision surgery with another board certified doctor who attempted to fix the damage he did.
Avoid at all costs and go to a surgeon who has an actual practice and surgical room with proper sanitary equipment and protocol in case of emergency.

Revision 2021 with another doctor
After a year and a half later I’m finally getting revision surgery with another doctor to fix the irregularities left on my stomach + back to be happy with my final results. Will be having another round of Lipo with jplasma to tighten up the tummy and laser treatments to get rid of all the scars left from the first time.
7 weeks post and Swollen
Its been 7 weeks since my surgery and my lower abdomen and flanks look dented and maybe still swollen? At this point im not sure whats going on but the pain has subsided and really hope the lower abdomen flattens down as well as my flanks as it looks uneven both from the front of my lower abdomen and sides.
I checked in with the doctor at 3 weeks and he said my lower pooch would go down after time and pointed out my back roll that was still there and said i might need revison surgery in a few months to even out the areas that may have been forgotten. I really hope i dont have to undergo surgery again since it was extremely painful but if its not looking better at 6 months this may be the route I take. Im not sure if the revision surgery would be an additional cost but hope it wouldn’t be as this should of been taken care of the first time around.
I began working out again this week and plan to increase time and pace each day. Im excited to have a lymphatic body massage to help remove any waste and toxins from my body. Ill post pictures after massage to see if it helped evenout my abdomen.
