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.

Thank you all for your kind words and support throughout this journey. It has been a rollercoaster of emotion but I am so happy I did it.

Red scarring still 4.5 months post op. I have been wearing silicone strips almost exclusively since 2 months post op. Now that the opened area is fully closed I have started silicone therapy since last week. My skin was still very thin and sensitive so needed for it to heal well prior to starting. This ride is not for the weak. Lots of ups and downs. Think about all that can do wrong, I am glad I didnt develop any severe complications. If you have any questions please ask :)
I will be starting IPL therapy this week. I will update you all as I progress. Thank you all for your kind comments.

Update on before and after
Wounds are all almost healed! Scar therapy begins and I am hoping to not need a revision but have spoke to my PS and it is an option. Will try this for 3 months and see!
Provider Review
I was out of town so I didn’t meet Dr Alvarez until 30 mins before surgery to assess and mark me up. This was the expectation from reading all reviews. Some girls may not like it, however I was able to ask my questions he explained everything he was doing and was professional throughout the pre-op. Having social media helps because I went in feeling like I already knew him. His personality is genuine and fun for those who follow him on IG. I can’t wait to return for another procedure!
