WORTH IT
I just had the most amazing surgical experience working with Dr. Effie Politis. I am a 58 year old avid fitness enthusiast. No matter how hard I tried, I had excess skin on my stomach that discouraged me. I went to several doctors in California where I live and they all suggested I have a full abdominoplasty, which involves a scar from side to side across my lower abdomen. I was also wrongfully offered cool sculpting which only added laxity to my old abdominal skin which supported 4 full term pregnancies.
I discovered Dr. Politis because she does upper abdominoplasty, a procedure I had never heard of. After a virtual consultation, I went for an in person consultation where she gave her hands-on expertise of how she could fix my issues. The procedure involves pulling the skin upward and concealing it under the bra line. The upper abdominoplasty is also used In conjunction with other treatments such as liposuction and Morpheus to tighten the skin. My results from the surgery are unbelievable. I feel that I finally have the stomach that I desire and it is without altering my belly button and leaving me with an obvious scar.
I felt safe, comfortable and supported throughout the entire experience, from making the virtual appointment, in-person consultation, office procedures to the surgery center and follow-up treatments. Dr. Politis and her staff are outstanding professionals that addressed all of the concerns and thoroughly explained all treatments. I am beyond satisfied with the results of my upper abdominoplasty and feel I have the contour, leanness and muscle definition I have been wanting the last 10 years of my life! Thank you Dr. Politis!
You made me feel beautiful again!

Please keep us posted on your progress? I'd love to see a pic of your belly button after you've healed too. Congratulations!

So is the scar just as large but underneath the bra line ? Or is it way smaller ? You look amazing btw !!!

You look great! I wonder why more doctors don't offer this because it preserves the belly button. How did she manage to pull the skin up from below the belly button? Also does this method allow for muscle repair?

I've heard of this procedure but I guess I just don't understand it. Are you now left with scar that completely runs under from breast to breast? Wouldn't it be better to have a scar low right above your pubic line that no one would see? And how do they tighten the muscles below your belly button? And then isn't your original belly button pulled up higher than it would've been? I have so many questions about this!
