I am very happy with Dr Saunders he did my panniculectomy 10 day's ago.
I will post pictures once I am all heal but the experience was amazing and I am so glad I picked him. Everyone in his office was so kind and VERY HELPFUL thank you Stacy so much you help made this possible my Insurance Company covered the surgery. I can not wait to get my next procedure a Breast Lift. I really feel like Dr johnthan Saunders is the best plastic surgeon in Delaware REAL TALK I did A LOT of research and I made the right decision. Meet with him first before you decide who you want to work on your body.

I have a question who do you insure with just curious so I can possibly see if I can go this route also.

Aetna I use to have BCBS but they said NO so once we had to change it I tried again and Aetna said YES and make sure you have pictures of your belly and show the issues you have been having and get your family Doctor and OBGYN to write letters for you that you REALLY need to get this skin removed all that can help. Good luck

This is something I have been WANTING to do for 36 years and I am very happy that I finally did it. Dr johnthan Saunders has changed my life for the better. He did a panniculectomy fleur de lis and I could care less about the scars REAL TALK I FINALLY see what I have been working so hard to see for 4 years I loss 100 lbs after WLS sleeve and it was the first best thing I did for myself having this skin removed was the second. I have a few pictures to add the morning of my surgery and 25 day's after and I am feeling more like myself EVERYDAY. I can not wait to get a BREASTLIFT next but my Doctor said I have to wait at least 6 months and I agree with him. Thanks again Dr Saunders for doing a great job on me I am so PLEASED.

Thanks for sharing those pics. I am losing my last few pounds before my doctor will do mines. I had the sleeve surgery three years ago and was gonna get it this year but had to get shoulder surgery. You look fabulous and thanks for showing how it really looks. Now you have me even more excited to get my panniculectomy

I am having mypanniculectomy on January 2nd I had the rn.y in 2007 I'm afraid but I know it's going to be worth it I just wish I was able to afford having my thighs done but I'll be happy with just a apron in my top stomach

Take it one step at a time don't do to much at one time your body need time to recover and it is not as bad as you might think yes you will have some pain but the drugs will take care of that lol just get rest and take it easy. I am getting my breast lift in June 2020 my Surgeon said I had to wait 6 months after my Panniculectomy but so I picked June which will be 8 months and I can not wait GOOD LUCK AND YOU WILL ROCK THIS TRUST ME

Ty for the encouragement I really appreciate it the part that really scares me is the part with the drains
December 20, 2019
Yes the drains are a pain in the butt but it will not stay in forever and it is a good thing to have those first days there is alot of fluids and the drains help get rid of the fluids

Ty so much talking on here and seeing everyone's comments makes me feel glad that I made the choice to do this I'm just hoping some day that I could get my inner thighs done I've been thinking about letting the insurance company know that I keep getting redness in between my thighs from my legs rubbing together which I do wear all my pants out in that area because of my thighs rubbing but I am going to take it one day at a time thank you all for listening to me here I really appreciate it
July 3, 2020
It’s possible that your insurance might cover the thighs because of losing so much weight I live in the state of Pennsylvania and my insurance company is going to cover my thighs and my bat arms also a Brest lift Because my breast are hanging so low from all the excess skin

Which insurance company?
I have United Healthcare and they turned me down :(
July 3, 2020
Aetna said yes when I had BCBS they said no you will need pictures of the issue the extra skin is causing and letters from you FAMILY doctor and your OBGYN will also help I had all that and I got approved GOOD LUCK it's a process but it will be so worth it
