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 worked out light today! I feel great! I also saw my PS for a one month check up. Everything looks great! I stil have swelling and he thinks my garment is not heloing when sitting due to boning curving and putting more pressure. He suggested to start bioCorneum a scar treatment silicone gel. I will purchase after Christmas!! Time to get stuff for my kids first!! He advised to stop using the polysporin for now and let it heal by itself (bellybutton). Has anyone tried the gel? In the meantime, I will use the palmers oil and get a flexees/spanxs type of under garment. :)

I survived Disneyland yesterday!! Wow, I can't believe it! I was swollen after but, I made it and felt pretty good! My scar is healing nicely. Almost all of the scabs are gone and my belly button is looking less red and wet. Today, at work I felt almost 90%!! Once,I went home I felt very tired and just wanted to lay down!! can't wait to see how my belly button is going to look, it changes everyday! :) I went through my clothing and threw out many items that are too large and out dated!! All of my clothes are either baggy or if they were tight/ small, they fit nicely now!!! Finally, at almost three weeks the "playground" is offically open! I am just trying to take things easy and listen to my body.

Today, i had my first sneeze!!! That was PAINFUL!! Thank God it onlh lasts about a minute! I am feeling better everyday! I finally cleanes up all the glue from the tape. I am really loving my results! I jist can't believe this is my body!! I am so happy! I even took the kids for a walk to the park today! I am totally off vicodine now. My scar is more flat due to the compressiin garment. I am used to wearing it now as well. Everyday, I feel better, thank God!!!

Dr. O'Toole and staff are amazing people. They are very kind, empathetic and professional!! Dr. O'Toole has great presence and bedside manner. He listened and answered all my questions and would make sure I understood. Sarah, the office manager is very sweet and is very fast with follow up and questions! When I asked for referrals she followed up right away with three women. One of the referrals even met me at the office to see her results in person! This is the day of my surgery and I am so happy with my results!! I can just imagine how I will look in 1,3 and 6 months!! Lastly, he said he was a belly button expert, he truly performed art!!!:)
