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.

What lead me to having the surgery was every time...

What lead me to having the surgery was every time I took a shower or lifted my excess skin it would tear and was very painful. It would always peal and no mater what precautions I took it did not help.
I no longer have that problem since the surgery. I'm happy with the outcome because now I am free of the ripping skin! I wish I could have had a tuck at the same time then I would not a little pucker of skin on my side but the Ins. company would not pay for that! All in all I am very glad I had this done.

Dr Champaneria is a very thorough doctor and was very good about answering all of my questions. He has a good bed side manner (and sense of humor) that fit in with my personality. Although I had wanted my drain tubes taken out sooner, Dr. Champaneria explained why that was not possible and I knew it was in my best interest. I would recommend him and use him if I should ever decide to have any other surgery.
