Hi everyone I'm 33 yrs old and have two daughters ages 3&2. Yes I love them but they did a number on my stomach. I went to see Dr Capella in Ramsey and he said I need a muscle repair, TT and lipo. I feel good about going in. Reading everybodys stories has helped a lot to come to my decision. I made my first payment today. I'll keep everyone posted Wish me luck

Amanda, I had muscle repair and lipo. You already look good so I suspect you are going to LOVE your result. I'm excited for you, and can't wait to read your progress on the site.

I have a consult with him tomorrow. Hoping pricing isn't as steep as tie one I saw yesterday. He quoted me for lower body lift, implants and some lipo $22k. I almost fell off my chair. I honestly don't know why he insists on a body lift instead of a full TT. Best of luck ok your surgery.

Dr. Capella will not be that expensive Jass28. I would say thousands less than what you were quoted above. Look at all the work he is doing on me for $18k http://www.realself.com/review/ramsey-nj-medial-thigh-lift-lbl-arm-lift-flankplasty-breast-lift-monsplasty He already did my tummy tuck and the results were amazing. I never knew that I could have a body like this http://www.realself.com/review/ramsey-nj-my-tummy-tuck-results-more-than-expected Good luck tomorrow!
