WORTH IT
I've known since having my first child at 21 that when I was done having children I would treat myself to a TT. I'm beyond excited to have the stomach I once loved back! I'm pretty confident but my stomach has always been an area of weakness. No matter how much you work out, you can't unstretch skin from pregnancy.

 I'm having a full tummy tuck with muscle repair and lipo to the flanks. I'm currently 155 lbs and 40 years old. I'm super confident except for my stomach. No matter how many sit ups you do, you cannot get rid of excess skin and muscle separation from having babies.

Good luck with your lipo and tummy tuck, I hear it’s one of his specialties so I’m sure you will be very happy with the result! Is there a reason why the pictures you mention in your rhinoplasty review can no longer be seen?

I'm so thankful I chose him again for my TT. I did remove pics from rhinoplasty due to privacy bc they showed my face but wasn't until about 7 years po. I think I'll repost some cropped ones tho later on.

Currently 13 days post op. I can’t say enough good things about the treatment and care I received at the Landings Surgical Centre in Halifax. This surgery required me to stay over night in their surgical area. From the moment I checked in at 9:30 am, to the moment I left the next morning I was treated like I was their number one priority. I can’t thank the nurses, anesthesiologist, and of coarse Dr Bendor-Samuel enough for my experience. I was so nervous and they calmed my anxiety and patiently answered all my questions. Dr Bendor-Samuel is an artist! When I took my drains out on day 7 and finally got to see my new belly I cried. It’s been 20 years since I’ve looked at my stomach and smiled. My only regret is not doing this 5 years ago.

You look beautiful! Dr Bendor - Samuel is amazing! I've had treatments with him in the past. I have my consult with him again in September for my tummy tuck. Excited and nervous.
