WORTH IT
November 16,2020 I underwent a pretty extensive surgical procedure with dr Alfanso. I had very large implants that were no longer desirable aesthetically or physically. I had breast implants for 26 years (2 sets). I heard great things about Bengtson center and initially booked with Dr Bengtson. I decided I wanted a few more areas worked on so I had to book w Dr Alfanso. My consultation was very good and left feeling in good hands. The young nurse was very kind and made me feel comfortable. Dr Alfanso was reassuring that he would give me a good result. Because I was having much smaller implants w a lift, the dr felt it was best to drain the implants and let my skin rest prior to surgery. On day of drain the surgical nurse was extremely kind knowing it was a pretty traumatic experience ( I had no boobs left! Just crinkled bags under my skin!). So, my surgery included breasts, and decided to get rid of some excess skin. I didn’t need a tummy tuck but I had a scar revision ( csection and hysterectomy) in which the doctor was able to remove some excess skin. I also had a thigh lift in which my thigh was cut inside along the groin area. Surgery went well. The nurses and staff at the surgical center are the best. Can’t say enough good things about them!!!! My breast were no big deal. Didn’t bother me at all right from start. I think had I just done that...I would have been back to normal the next day!! Lol. The thigh and stomach were pretty tough. I am maybe not best w pain, plus I am 52, and had thyroid cancer year before. I am hypothyroid and probably don’t heal as quickly as others may. 5 months later I am starting to feel like I am able to move normally. I do have swelling on my stomach and legs are tight but much better. I did have concerns during healing and the surgical nurses were great. Again, the surgery center is fantastic! My results are very good and feel if you want a beautiful, natural result..dr Alfanso will deliver that for you.
I will prob do YouTube videos to talk more extensively as it’s hard to find information about the thigh lift.

Hello,I would love to know more about your thigh lift. Are you happy with results? It's hard to find much info about that. Thank you.

I am. It was a very long recovery and pretty tough ( for me not sure everyone). The scars are a bit of a mind game, so when they fade I will be happier. I am excited to start working out harder and hoping results will be a lot better.
