Three years post-op!!!

WORTH IT$14,000
Hello beautiful ladies! I felt the need to update at my three years post-op. I’m feeling incredibly blessed everyday. When they say you’ll experience change as the days, months and years go by, it is absolutely true. It only gets better!! The journey is so worth it and a life changing experience. I must say that it does require hard work and determination because with just surgery alone, you won’t get the full benefits. Of course you will have that flat belly and no more belly apron, but you still need to maintain your health by trying to eat healthier and excercise is so important. So ladies be good to your bodies and give it what it needs, and you will love yourself for it! Thank you Dr. Armando Soto in Orlando, Florida for your amazing work!

This has truly been a life changing experience! That is why, I am forever grateful and extremely pleased that Dr. Armando Soto gave me the body that I yearned to have back for so long. I had top notch service and an amazing experience with Dr. Soto and his staff. From the first Skype session until my last appointment with him. I am an out of state patient and will most certainly come back to him. He listened to what I felt I needed and he gave me what was best for my body frame. Everyone that has seen my results are amazed at his work. He is very passionate about his work and truly has hands of an artisan. I finally met his wonderful Patient Coordinator Manager Keely, who has been with me every step of the way. She is the most sweetest person that anyone could meet. Any questions I needed answered, she would respond in a timely manner. His nurse Caley was a gem as well. She always took the time to explain to me how things needed to be done to have a successful body. I can't forget Sarah, also one of his nurse assistants, beautiful person inside and out! Although his office is very busy, they always took time for me as if I was the only patient in the world. I never had to wait very long to see the doctor. I never felt hurried to have my questions answered. He always answered my questions to the fullest. Dr. Soto has been very caring from day one. I experienced that first hand without going into further detail. Thank you Dr. Soto for being you! So now my journey begins. As most women do, I always put everyone else first. A lot of times that is why women tend to feel like they have lost their identities. It’s hard to spend that much money on yourself, especially for aesthetic reasons. It seems okay to spend it on a car or a trip, but for some reason the thought of spending that money on your body is frowned upon. To some that may seem vain or boastful. For me it was about a self confidence that I had yet to achieve, a love of self that I have longed for a very long time. When I look in the mirror, I like what I see now! I feel good about myself, inside and out. I am a better woman, a better wife and a better mom. It is absolutely normal to feel guilty about spending money on a mommy makeover and it is okay to finally put yourself first. Although this wasn't the cheapest surgery, I always say, "YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!" He did an exceptional job on me and I would not trust no other. Sincerely, M

And you look absolutely incredible.
Awwww thank you love!
you look amazing! I like how you’re belly button looks. does his price include anything like garments, creams, meds etc
Hi love, yes the price included binder, two-surgical bras, arnica tablets, stool softness, tape, gauge and a few other things that came in ba care package. I added the care package at an extra cost and was pleased since I didn't want to go running around all over to buy the items. It was well worth it. If you'd like you can read my post in detail to let you know how my progression and all went. It has been two and half years and am still loving my look. Of course I work out to maintain my weight, but tummy looks great!! Are you thinking of going with Dr. Soto?
yes i am seriously considering it! i am going to make a consultation appointment within the next few weeks...are there any regrets that you have or anything you would do differently in regards to pre op or post op preparation/care?
I have no regrets pre or post op whatsoever. I made sure that I followed all of Dr. Sotos orders and instructions for the best benefits for my body. Although It was a pain, I wore my binder faithfully. Made sure the scar area was covered with tape until Dr. Soto said it wasn't necessary anymore... and I still continued long after that. Also they recommend using the gel and creams from their office called "skinmedica". I used them faithfully for a little over six months. It ba came costly so I started using bio-oil, 100% coconut oil and Rosehip oil, that really helped my scar. If you have time, I recommend you reading my post as I give detail information almost monthly for over a year. If you heave any other questions, feel free to lmk!
Still looking amazing :)
Awwww love, thank you so much! As always, I miss my buddies that went through this process with me. I am not on here as much, only every so often. You must be going on three years post op already. How have you been? I am sure you look fabulous! I ate lots around the holidays and am trying to hit the gym really hard. I hope all is well and your loving yourself to the fullest love!! :)
Haha I miss you and my other recovery buddies too but no one seems to be on here much anymore. And I don’t get any email updates that anyone (friends I follow) has updated their profile like we used to do a year or so ago. Yes, I’ll be 3 years on the 12th, I plan on posting pics on that day but I’m gonna post a few today because I need some input on my hair / scar problem lol. I paid for a years worth of Brazilian laser hair removal and I’ve had 2 sessions so far. At first I asked her to leave a small patch of hair on the front and she said she could but that if I decided I wanted the Brazilian she will do that at any time and we could take it all off. So today I went ahead and shaved everything off to see how it feels for the next couple weeks so I’m hoping to get some input from all you ladies on what I should do.

2 Year Mommy Makeover Post-Op

Loving yourself is the greatest revolution!!!
It's been a little over 2 years since I had my mm and boy does it fly! I continue to feel great and take care of my body physically, mentally and emotionally. This truly was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I must admit the first year was a huge journey, where there were so many changes to my body. I learned that this was my body trying to heal itself. So ladies try not to get discouraged. As the days, the months and each year that has passed, it only had gotten better!!! Xoxoxo to my Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Armando Soto for making me feel absolutely amazing.
