3 months after TT

WORTH IT$12,400

I must say that I love the way my tummy looks and they way my clothes fit. I am now dealing with keloids. Dr. Broudo suggested I start using Oleeva silicone strips. Keloids are very uncomfortable, hopefully I will see results pretty soon.

Dr. Broudo is very professional and caring. He addresses all of your questions and concerns, however he will not volunteer information on what to really expect. No matter how many times I call asking questions, his staff is always patient and concerned. Dr. Broudo is a surgeon whom is not only dedicated to his skill but his patients too, I believe he goes above and beyond for his patients, even meeting you in his office on the weekend, when I called ,and said that I had one area around my incision that hurt more than the rest. As for my results...I had lost almost 100 lbs in 2001, and had some serious loose skin. I went back to work two weeks after surgery on a part time basis, started to work full time on the fourth week. Although the recovery is slow, I have the most amazing, stunning transformation, words can't describe what Dr. Broudo was able to achieve, I have the belly and boobs of a teenager (my two daughters word). My scars are a deep red and they should lighten with time.

awesome results... how much did you weigh before and after

ggmiamiJuly 23, 2015

In 2001 when I had the gastric bypass, I weighed 250. I went down to 147, and have maintained the weight loss. I now fluctuate between 140 and 145. Before the tummy tuck I was wearing a size 12, after tummy tuck a size 6 fits perfectly. I had a full tummy tuck and muscle reconstruction, Dr. Broudo, the plastic surgeon, also repaired two hernias. You will not regret the tummy tuck, however keep in mind that this will be a slow recovery.

Hi ggmiami

I have my surgery on 12/3 and on my 60th birthday. Can you share your recovery time with me. How to go back to work in 2 weeks. Since I am able to work some. Do you think that's too enthusiastic ?

I lost 100 pounds in 2001, have been dealing with the extra skin around my stomach since then. I was just afraid to do it. I decided to have the surgery and lost 4.6 kilos from the surgery (10 pounds). My stomach is very tight. I still have puckering around the incision, but Dr. Broudo assures me it will get better. This a slow healing process.
