Sorry about the delay in updating….. I am not as satisfied as i thought. 7 months has past. First off the DR has the absolute worst adittued ever. I really wish i wasn't so excited to do the procedures and met with more drs. Nobody should have to be treated as he does to others. 2nd not that happy with anything i do not think he good, but its not so great. I don't think my hernia is completely fixed, i don't think my breasts are even as i wished, my scar is great only cause i have had it worked on and spent a pritty penny doing so. When i told him how i felt about his work he laughed at me… I do not recommend him. I have now heard horrible stories and do regret going with him.

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE

How sad! I think you look great! You have had a huge improvement on your before pics. I have seen enough of his work to still think he does a great job. I think others will agree

Why don't you post a pic at this stage so we can see what you look like post 9 months? Maybe you're being too hard on yourself?

I'm sorry to hear you're no longer pleased with your results.There is no perfect surgeon - only the right surgeon for each patient. I'd be interested in seeing your current pics of Dr. Hochstein's work seeing as I had my MM sx by him 6 weeks ago and I'm VERY happy with my results so far. What did you have done on your scar and why? I hope that if you have a legitimate challenge with your healing or results that Dr. H would take it seriously. Your 3 day post op picture looks fantastic and I can't imagine what could have gone wrong. Please post current pics. Wishing you well :)))

Your previous pics looked good. Please post new pics. I am having surgery with Dr. Hochstein.

Back home and relaxing still using the recliner but i am going up and down the stairs a few times a day. I am almost ready to have my drains removed they have been producing less then 25 on each for last few days but want to be sure sure cause i don't want to be aspirated. Its only been a little over a week. I have been off pain meds for a few days now and feel no pain except for the pulling and the drains, they are quite painful when pushed on. plan to see Dr again tomarrow in hopes they will be taken out or at least one will……

I'm so board!!!!! I never sit around and have nothing to do so this is very weird for me.... I can't wait to go to dr on Monday. My one drain is bothering me a lot, at the incision point has some burning other then that no pain. Been taking the mess every 6 hrs. I only walk 10 steps to bathroom and 10 back like 5 x a day. I drink a lot of water always do... 3/4 lets a day. I am also upset and dwelling on my boobs wish I went with more projection. I didn't learn enough bat them before doing them I got same thing I had. Oh well. Will send pics after Mondays dr trip.

ahhhh the back pain..that doesn't last too long hang in there :) Try touching your toes while using your walker that stretch helped me so much it felt great and I also loved the heating pad. It goes away. Think no pain no gain and in time you will be back to your normal self ( in a few months4-6). I did post a pic of my scar. I have tons in my phone, sometimes I look at them and I know what your thinking, it was VERY alarming at first, but I will tell you this is heals and fades and disappears , so don't worry about it. When they say a year for the scar they are not kidding. Don't put ridiculous pressure on yourself when other girls post pics in dim light or not very clear and you think theirs is healing better. I do eat very healthy I have a sweet potato every day which provides extra Vitamin A which is retinol. I love Jello which is not only a low calorie treat, it also provides collagen which a great for skin healing. I use 70 sun block every day as well under my clothes. Glad you are not in pain the time will go by fast.
