Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I am more than 1 month out from my surgery date and so far I have gained about 10 pounds. My starting weight was about 130lbs and now I am around 141. I am 5'4". I'm also super worried about unwanted health side effects from gaining so much weight. I would hate for any of my abdominal fat gained to be visceral and not subcutaneous and not have enough fat in my midsection to be liposuctioned.

I'm currently at 144 pounds and I stopped in to see Dr. Lacerna to see if I was gaining weight in usable areas, after the second consult I sent in my wish pics. She called me and told me that my wish pics are pretty much all unattainable for my size and that it would be possible to achieve my goals with a revision in 6 months if I gained even more weight. At this point she thinks she'll only be able to get 400 cc to each cheek. I'm feeling discouraged. It really doesn't feel like its worth it to have permanent scars and spend thousands of dollars to only have 400 cc's and possibly look exactly the way I did before I gained weight for the surgery. Oh well I guess I have a month to decide.
The first and last picture are me.
