Life-Changing Results with Safety, Precision, and True Artistry
WORTH IT
After 1.5 years of thorough research and consultations with a total of six different surgeons, I ultimately chose Dr. Ak. My decision was based on his consistently strong results, his ability to truly contour the body, and—importantly—his aesthetically superior belly button results. In addition, safety is clearly his top priority; he does not perform high-risk procedures. As a single parent of a young child, this gave me tremendous peace of mind.
I am now 8 weeks post-op and I genuinely could not be happier with my results from an extended tummy tuck, lipo 360, and BBL. I am 47 years old and have never had such a beautiful body in my life. My goal was simply to feel comfortable enough to wear a shirt or blouse tucked into my pants (instead of always covering my stomach), but now I even wear crop tops—something I never thought would be possible.
The pain after surgery was much more manageable than I expected: on a scale of 1 to 10, it was at most a 5 during the first two days. After that, it was mainly discomfort rather than real pain. Paracetamol was sufficient, and within five days I didn’t even need that anymore. My recovery has been very smooth, without any fibrosis. The scar is already thin and light.
I followed all guidelines and instructions very strictly, and I also chose to undergo hyperbaric oxygen therapy both before and after surgery, which may have contributed to my recovery.
I am incredibly grateful to Dr. Ak for his craftsmanship and attention to detail—he truly is a body architect in my eyes. Special thanks as well to Rabia, who guided me clearly and pleasantly in Dutch throughout the entire process, from preparation to aftercare. And Serpil, the massage therapist, was truly a godsend: daily wound care, massages, assistance with showering, and emotional support.
I would also like to mention my lipo massage therapist in the Netherlands: Bodyshape by Lourdes. I started treatments with her immediately upon returning home and still go weekly. Lourdes has highly skilled hands, provides valuable advice, and has a heart of gold. On top of that, she is incredibly kind.
Together, they form an absolute dream team for me.
