My belly was instantly flat - looked better than expected

I had a mommy makeover by Dr. Ruane with abdominoplasty and breast augmentation. This was combined with an umbilical hernia repair by a local general surgeon. I’m thrilled with my results (pics are 9 months postop). From my first consultation, Dr. Ruane provided thorough information about the procedure as well as the opportunity to view his prior outcomes with patients with a similar build. I left feeling encouraged about what he could achieve and confident in his abilities. I even canceled the other plastics consult I had scheduled and set up my surgery with Dr. Ruane. When I met with the general surgeon (who works with all the plastic surgeons in the area), he raved, “Eddie’s the shit. He’s the Sydney Crosby of Plastic Surgery.”
On surgery day, Dr. Ruane’s genuine bedside manner put me at ease. He called multiple times throughout my postop course to check in and see if I had any questions. He also encouraged me to call or text if I needed anything.
Now for my results. I mainly wanted the tummy tuck for the diastasis recti repair. And it did not disappoint; my belly was instantly flat. But having the extra skin and stretch marks removed looked better than what I expected. And I think that Dr Ruane’s way of doing belly buttons looks most natural. It kind of looks like the Star Trek logo; naturally sloped on the bottom. With regards to the breast aug, he took measurements and recommended a size he thought would look best on my frame. I wanted a natural look and under clothes, I feel this size looks very appropriate. Overall, I don’t think I could have gotten better results with anyone else. If you are on the fence about the surgery, go for it! If you are deciding on your surgeon, I highly recommend Dr Ruane!
