I Had my Surgery a Year Ago and I'm Beyond Happy with This Dr

WORTH IT$16,890

Start to finish best experience ever. The girls in the office are always really nice, everything is so welcoming about Dr. Sumida and all of the staff. He is realistic in telling you if what you want to have done is right for you and also about things you do not need, which I really appreciate.

I am super happy with my results and would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Sumida for a tummy tuck or breast lift. He also went out of his way to provide excellent after care and I am not an easy patient lol I'm very high strung and anxious. The whole office here made sure everything was always comfortable, and that I'd know what to expect. I always felt like I was a priority.

Mental health, exercise, results

My mental health is improving finally. Even amidst all of this COVID19 drama and stress. I'm feeling happier about my belly button. My hips are smoothing out. It's been over 3.5 months but I swear I'm still so tender in my flanks area where my lovehandles are. I think they're still swollen idk. My scars are getting slightly hypertrophic. I am prone to this and expected it. I emailed my doctor and he quickly responded and gave me instructions. Here's a couple photos. I'm shrinking every time I take a photo. My eating habits haven't been good because of quarantine. I've also not been exercising. Right before quarantine, about a month ago, I'd begin lifting again and feeling really good in the gym. I started doing cardio at 2 months post, and lifting around 2.5 months. I'm pleased with my body, Dr. Sumida did a really great job.
I'm including my official before photos here, finally. Yikes. I kind of forget where I started at times, it's helpful to take these out and remember how far I've come. Truly such a great improvement. I'll do some scar photos in the future, sometime.

Do you mind sharing pictures of your breasts? How many cc's did you go with?
Hello I did not have implants just a lift but I'm soo happy with it. This dr does fantastic implants too I saw in the portfolio.
You look so good!!
Hi are you happy with the way your belly button looks? I had TT done and went from having a nice belly button to an outie that doesn't look good so I will need repair.
I like it better before. It is not an outie but also not a complete innie like before. I don't love it.

Regretting not doing more

I'm regretting not getting fat transfer to my hips to really round out my silhouette & perfect my curves. Ugh. I was nervous to add too much but man that woulda been perfect. Shoulda, woulda, coulda. :( bummed out about it. I suggest if you have the means and are thinking of doing extra, DO IT.

I think your hips look perfect! Anyways I read about a lot of ppl whose fat transfer melts away and doesn't stay.
That plus the dangerousness of fat embolisms were my deciding factor not to do the BBL add ons. Thank you! I'm very happy with everything, it's just really easy to focus on any negative. I'm about to post my official before photos soon, where you careen really see the improvements!!
Hello what procedures did you get one? Besides the tt... did u get a breast lift?if so how r u taking care of the incisions? When did u shower? And how did u protect the incisions?
Hey! I had a breast lift, yeah. Definitely follow your doctor's post op instructions as they use different techniques. I didn't wear any compression post op on any part of my body. I didn't shower until like 12 days post. I just used antibacterial liquid dial and didn't protect my incisions in any way. I let water run over it all then dried thoroughly. Hope that helps.
