I had my tummy tuck with extensive liposuction to my back, flanks, upper abdomen, arms and chin on October 29, 2013 by Dr. Remus Repta. I am just over three weeks P/O and I feel and look amazing (if I do say so myself). I found Dr. Repta after extensive research and many consultations with local doctors. He immediately put me at ease with his zen like demeanor. He patiently listened to all my questions and answered them with a balance of intelligence and confidence without seeming pretentious. He is an artist. He took a tummy and body that had taken much abuse over the years between a c-section and years of yo-yo dieting and turned it into something that was beyond my wildest dreams or expectations. When I get out of the shower and see myself in the mirror I can not believe that the reflection is really me. I am proud of the way I look now and I owe that all to Dr. Repta. I have read many horror stories of tummy tucks gone wrong on real self and I am so lucky to have found a surgeon like Dr. Repta who does impeccable work. I did not have one single complication. At 3 weeks P/O I have minimal swelling and my scar is healing very well. I have looked at many before and after pictures of tummy tucks on this website and others and none of the results compare to the results that Dr. Repta gave to me. I will post before and after pics soon. The entire staff, from Emily at the front desk, to Brooke who handles the administrative side of things to Kaitlin and Amanda who were my nurses during the procedure are not only professional but truly go the extra mile to make your experience flawless. For anyone who is looking for a plastic surgeon, that quite literally helped to write the book on abdominalplasty, do not look any further than Dr. Repta. There is no need because he is the best. Thank you Dr. Repta for changing my life.

Wow you look awesome!!
Wow you look fantastic! Hope this isnt too rude but what was your weight before surgery? Dont answer tha question if you dont want. It looks like our body shapes are very simular. I only hope mine turns out as good as yours.
Thank you I feel like a new better version of myself. I am 5'4 and on the day of surgery I was 169 lbs down from 202 lbs. I wasn't at my "ideal" weight which I know is the preference for some doctors but my Dr saw that I had fat and loose skin along with needing a muscle repair. He told me we could go two ways. Do more aggressive lipo first then do the tummy tuck down the road or do the tuck along with a less aggressive lipo. He said in my situation he felt that I could get a very good result with the second option and if I felt I needed a bit more lipo down the road that would be possible. I can't tell you the importance of finding the right dr. I saw several and heard many different options. I am so glad I went with the Dr I did because he gave me honest opinions and realistic goals. But I must say that the results far exceeded my expectations. I will still continue to try to make better choices with my eating and I just two days ago started doing the elliptical machine again. I think having the surgery has made me feel so much better about my body and I feel inspired to take better care of it now. I hope this helps if u have any other questions let me know. Thanks :)
Im sure the weight loss also helped with your confidence. Im still over weight but feeling better and better about myself as the weight comes off. I have to wait til feb
Did he do lipo on your sides as well?
Thank you for sharing your journey and pictures!
