Miracle Worker for Massive Weight Loss Patients

WORTH IT
I can not and never will have enough good things to say about Dr. Bharti. He has given me my life back. I have confidence I NEVER had before. I researched doctors for over a year and had consults with a total of 4. Dr. Bharti was my last consults because I canceled others after meeting with him. I knew he was the one right away. He was so genuinely excited for me and helped me figure out the best course of action for me. I messaged him and his staff multiple times with questions or to change procedures around and never once felt like I was a burden. One of the other (of many) things that set him apart during my consult was him asking ME what I was unhappy with. The other consults I had had me email pictures and instead of asking me what I wanted they offered suggestions first which can make you pick yourself apart more than you already are because now someone is pointing out flaws that never bothered you before. Dr. Bharti also respected and supported my decision from the beginning that I didn’t want a FDL Incision or implants. He was confident that he could get me the results I desired without either. His confidence put me ease because no one else had said it was possible up until him.
A little back story, I was always a chunky kid but by high school graduation I was up to 210. After two pregnancies and a terrible relationship with food I ballooned to 333lbs by the age of 24. I hated myself and struggled with depression daily. I couldn’t enjoy my two beautiful babies and I have only a handful of photos with me with my kids at a young age. I decided to lose the weight and try to get my life back. I thought that after I go to 200, 190, 180, etc I would be happy. I got to 170 and hated my body just as much as I did at 333lb. Every part of my body was sad, sagging and deflated. I still felt huge because my apron of skin kept be from wearing anything other than leggings with long shirts covering to mid-thigh. My husband is amazing and loved my body at its highest and lowest but because I didn’t love myself our love life struggled as well. I remained held back from my insecurities. I still stayed out of photos, never wore a swimsuit, never wore shorts during the summer (105 degree days in black leggings isn’t great), had difficulties with working out due to the rashes from excess skin, etc.
Flash forward to today, almost 6 weeks post op from an extended tummy tuck, breast lift w/o implants, and a bra line back lift. I am a brand new person. For me this wasn’t a vanity thing. This was truly life changing. I have already bought lingerie, bikinis, crop tops and can’t wait to be able to try on shorts. The pandemic has continued to put vacation plans on hold but I am ready when the time comes to safely do so. My confidence is through the roof and there is no bringing me down. I am happier in my own skin than I have ever been and it is all thanks to Dr. B putting the final touches on my weight loss journey. My stay at the surgical center the night of surgery and my follow up care has been nothing short of amazing. I have no current plans for future surgeries but if I do decide on any other procedures I will 10000% go to Dr. B without thinking twice.

Your results are incredible!!!
Congratulations! You look amazing! I got pretty emotional reading your story as I have had some of the same feelings and insecurities while struggling with my weight over the years. After having bariatric surgery, I am finally at a weight to be proud of. But my sad, droopy, deflated breasts and apron of skin that hangs from my lower stomach has left me feeling just as unattractive... but I just had my breast lift w/implants done in December and have my tummy tuck scheduled for early April. I am over the moon excited, my boobs are coming in nicely and I hope to have the same restored confidence as you once the apron is gone! Hope your healing stays on track, I'll be following your updates.
Wow!! How much did this cost you and whats the MR?
