  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Month 9 update

It's been some time since my last update. I'm happy to say that my scars are healing quite nicely and I've started to develop muscle in my abdomen once again (feels like I'm 20 again :)).
I returned to Cross Fit 4 months after surgery. Sadly, I had to stop again as I was rear-ended 7 months post-surgery. I've now been relegated to walking and light weight lifing for my arms. Nevertheless, I'm extremely pleased with my results and happy to see my scars healing nicely.
I'm immensely grateful to Dr. Lowen for all of his efforts, my post-surgery care, and my amazing results.

Day 8 Photos

Updating my first review with better photos

Day 28... Walked 3 miles and am feeling soooo much better!

On Day 28th, I am both amazed and so ecstatic about my results. At this point, I could hug my Doctor to death :). I've gone on 2 walks this last week. The first one was 2 miles and the second was 3 miles. It felt a little strange and definitely felt tired after the first 2 miles. Since I'm scheduled for the Tinkerbell Half Marathon on Jan 19, 2014 in 3 weeks, I need to get ready somehow. The Dr. says I definitely cannot run the half marathon but he has no objections to me walking it. I'm excited, tentative, and slightly scared about my performance. As long as I finish, I'll be happy.
The hubby and I have also had sex since then. I was only brave enough to try it once about 2 days ago. I was on top and that felt better. And, no, I didn't wear my binding garments. LOL. I was a little self-conscious about the abdominal scar. But, honestly, given how amazingly flat my stomach is, I am not complaining!!! Have a look for yourself and let me know what you think.

Dr. Lowen is a master at his craft. He is extremely professional, seasoned, and skilled in his profession. He is a perfectionist and diligent in achieving the best results for his patients. He is no-nonsense, direct, and honest in his assessments of the results you can expect from him. His delivery and execution of the procedures totally align with the expectations he sets. I will only use Dr. Lowen for my plastic surgery procedures. I would also recommend his work to all my family and friends.
