Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.      
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.

2 months post op

I love my results. I'm still swelling a good bit. Some days are better than others. I have no feeling around my incision and around my stomach. It's very weird. I did have a rough time emotionally around the 2 and 3 week post op. It is a big surgery, don't expect to bounce right back. But I'd do it again.

1 week post op

Well I'm doing better. I'm still resting not doing much. I get these drains out Monday I can't wait. I'm not taking the pain meds very much. I just get very fatigued and winded when I walk. I'm still not walking straight I'm a little bunched over and still sleeping in the recliner. I'm soooo ready to sleep in my bed again!!!

1 day post op

Had some complications yesterday keeping my vitals normal. They wanted to keep me for observation but we decided to come home instead.

Later last night I had to have an emergency visit with Dr.Hand and his wife. They were at there daughter's birthday party and dropped everything. To check me out.

I had started throwing up, dizzy, light headed and in the worst pain I've ever felt. In the office my vitals were excellent. He called in script for my nausea and vomiting.

I've been able to walk around today with getting dizzy or light headed. No more nausea. Pain is becoming more manageable, but it still hurts. He said he took 6.5 pounds of skin.

Will update with pics when I'm feeling more up to it
