I Had a Wonderful Experience!!!

WORTH IT
I love Dr. Yamahata and all his Staffs! I had a full extended tummy tuck with muscle repair and 360 lipo done about 6months ago. Dr. Yamahata is the best! I chose him because of his excellent record of experience with my type of surgery and his eye for perfection! I was in great care for all of my postoperative care. His MAs were wonderful to me as well as they took extra care to make sure my compression garments were the right size for me and always gave me words of encouragements when I was going through my swell hell stages. Thanks to Dr. Yamahata, I now have my life and body back! I look way better than my friends who had the same procedure done and for that, i get to smile silently inside!

What did he charge? He’s the best for tummy tucks and boob jobs. You look amazing!
Hello, and thank you for the compliment! I'm very excited to see what i look like when i hit my 1yr mark as i still have some swelling as the day goes by. I don't remember the exact breakdown cost but i paid a total of $14 grand for my specific procedure. It was worth every single penny if not more. The cost included the surgery fee to the doctor, the surgery room, the anesthesia fees and if i needed any revision, it was free as well because my doctor cares about my satisfaction. I wanted to let you know that my incision scar started in the back close to my spine and it goes all around to the other side...so,yes my scar is a lot longer than the average joe/jane in order to achieve my results here, leading to maybe the cost being a little more than average of others. Then from there, i received muscle repair and a 360 lipo all over. I truly believe i chose the right doctor for this surgery. I didnt want to nickle and dime myself when this surgery is a very important surgery that i have been wanting to get for almost 15yrs ago. I have 5 children and i wanted my life & body back and that is exactly what the doctor did for me. I have seen and heard way too many bad tummy tuck horror stories and situation to take a cheaper cost risk on my body. If you are thinking about getting this surgery, call Dr. Yamahata, you wont regret it.
I would like to know as well.
Hello! Ive replied to the previous question regarding cost of my procedure but not sure if you were able to read it? Anyways, my total procedure cost a total of 14grand. I dont remember the breakdown cost but the total was 14grand and it included the doctor surgery fees, surgery room, anaesthesia fees and if i needed a revision, it was free too because my doctor cares about my satisfaction. Keep in mind, my doctor did a lot to me. For example, i had what they call an extended full tummy tuck. What that means is, my incision scar started really close to the back of my spine, then it goes all around to the other side. Then from there, i got muscle repair and a whole lot of 360 lipo to achieve my results. I couldn't be anymore happier! It was worth every penny if not more. You dont want to go for the cheapest doctor nor travel outside the USA..too scary for what might go wrong. Ive not had any issues with my postop at all. No seromas, hematomas, nothing with a "ma" at the end. It's all due to the skillfull hands and care from my doctor. Call him up if you are thinking about this surgery. Your cost might be much less than mine...depending on what he thinks you need to achieve the look you want. Trust me, he is very good at what he does. Don't nickle and dime yourself when it comes to your body and self-esteem afterwards. Good luck.
