51, liposuction, abdominoplasty, breast augmentation with Dr. Boll

I highly recommend getting a lymphatic massage after your surgery. It helped to release the effects of the anesthesia in my body. I had some bruising from the liposuction, the lymphatic massage helped it to heal. Each time I came in for a massage I could feel the fluid slowly & painlessly being flushed out of my body. My body became more contoured & responded better with every visit. Andrea makes you feel relaxed & comfortable. The music, the lighting & her gentle touch are magic. The massage works because Andrea is truly knowledgeable with the lymphatic system. I had my drains in longer than most like I stated in my review above. Again, it was due to me not being able to stay still for the first 2 weeks & not having my binder tight enough (do not do like I did). Andrea paid special attention in the beginning to where my drains were. When I got them out, she was very attentive to any concerns or questions I had. I did a total of ten massages. Dr. Boll has competitive prices for her packages. Make sure to check out the lymphatic massage after your surgery!

From the first contact I had with Dr. Boll's office, I was impressed. When my husband & I arrived for my consultation, we found the office to be very friendly and inviting. When we went back into the exam room to meet Dr. Boll for the first time, we knew that she was the ONE that was going to do my surgery. She was warm, friendly, compassionate, and most of all, she took her time with us. I did not feel rushed like I had with previous doctors with which I had consulted. She sat down with my husband & I at our level, not like she was a doctor. She went over everything line by line and answered ALL our questions. The paperwork was very organized & thorough for each of the procedures I was having. It went into detail on what to expect before, during & after the surgery.

Her staff is fabulous – Kristine, Shannon, Andrea & Rita. I had the opportunity to get to know Kristine & Shannon well due to me not following post-op instructions like I should have. Every time I came in for my drains, they were wonderful & always happy to see me. Note to self: Make sure you wear your abdominal binder VERY TIGHT and be a COUCH POTATO so that your drains can get removed in a timely manner. Pain? I really had no pain with the liposuction / abdominoplasty / breast augmentation surgery recovery. My only issue was one that I created, not staying still and letting my body heal.

I am now almost 10 months post-op and am thrilled with the results. I went to Sint Maarten in April and wore a bikini!!! I do not remember ever doing that. I will be 52 in August and I feel & look better than I ever have all thanks to Dr. Boll. She has given me my confidence & self-worth back. I know that this is only the beginning for me. Dr. Boll & her staff will follow you from beginning to end - they make you feel like family. I am so happy that I chose Dr. Boll. You will be too, I promise!
