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.

Update 13 months later.
My belly looks fantastic.
My dr asked me if he could use my picture to show potential patients : )
Since I had the surgery I've lost about 17 pounds and gone down almost 3 sizes. I do exercise about 4 times a week and eat healthy but there is no way I am messing this up.
I would do this again in a heartbeat.

It is 3.5 months post op - I don't have any pain, just numbness around my belly button and I still "feel it" when I pull myself up into a sitting position. I have a flat belly for the most part. I eat less because I can't stand the full tight feeling. My dr has me using a silicone scar strip to help with the healing. I used Mederma, which I didn't like, and now i alternate the strip with Palmers Scar Therapy Oil.
I feel like I'm healing very well. My dr is very responsive to my questions. i hope the pictures give people an idea of the process - I've never had a stomach like this in my life!

i just figured out how to update this - I was updating in one of the other threads!
I am almost 3 weeks post op now.
My stomach is much flatter but I still have to wear my size 10s to accommodate the soreness of my incision and my hips still seem really puffy. i'm hoping they will go down!
Today was my 3rd day back at work and my first full day back. I sit at a desk and try not to get up too much - I still can't stand up too straight.
I can kind of sleep on my left side if I use a lot of pillows under me (I had the drain on the left taken out first so it's more healed)
The doctor told me to use Mederma 3-4 times a day - I am, but it's kind of stinky, and i feel like it's kind of peeling off. i'll see him again at the end of the week so i'll ask him.
I think i finally hit that "blues" period a lot of people have mentioned. i hope it doesn't last too long.

Provider Review
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
5 Professional Cir., Colts Neck, New Jersey
Dr T was the 3rd dr I interviewed for this procedure. First, he is a genuine, nice person who really cares about his patients and their health as well as how they look. He was very detailed in his questioning of me - he spent a long time TALKING to me before he even examined me. He MADE me quit smoking in order to have this surgery (6 + weeks now!) and everyone in his office and surgery center has been super kind and gentle with me. I would recommend him to anyone.
