WORTH IT
After having gastric bypass 13 years ago, I tried to get the courage to have plastic surgery but kept putting it off. This spring I had to have a total hysterectomy so I started seriously considering having a tummy tuck so I could do both with only one recovery. The decision to move forward with both procedures was the best decision ever. I took 4 weeks off work and went back to an office job. The first week back was slow moving but I quickly started getting back to normal at week 6. The tummy tuck was such a positive experience for me. I'm so very happy and blessed with the outcome thanks to the best surgeon ever, Dr. J. J. Wendel. C.S. Nashville, TN

I can't say enough great things about Dr. J. J. Wendel and his staff. His confidence in his work made me feel at ease throughout the process. Everything went as expected and I never felt alone during my recovery. Dr. Wendel scheduled me for followup visits and made sure I had the best of care. I'm now 5 months post-op and absolutely love the results. I didn't even bruise and my scar is looking better every day. My stomach looks better than it did when I was a teenager. I am forever grateful to Dr. Wendel and his staff. Thank you! C.S. Nashville, TN

You do look fabulous. I'm older than you by quite a bit. (almost 63) and am going to have TT in 5 wks. You didn't say anything about your recovery. I had an abdominal hyster at age 48 and THAT incision about killed me for the first day and a half. It was not a huge incision either. I am worried about how miserable I will be post op and for how long. How was your experience?? Thanks. PS You must be thrilled. Your tummy is beautiful.

You look fabulous!

Looks good
