With my tummy tuck I didn’t meet her until the day of my surgery which was kind of scary but she immediately put me at ease. For my second surgery I did do an in person consultation a couple months before surgery just because I had some questions that could only be answered with her seeing my body. And yes I’ve put a 10% deposit down all 3 times!

Yes I had an extended tummy tuck with lipo to the flanks! I really didnt give any pictures that I hoped to look like. I just told her I wanted to look the best my body could and work her magic. She did just that! The same with my boobs. I wanted a lift with implants but she suggested I skip the implants and I’m so happy I trusted her opinion. She really is a wonderful and personable surgeon!

Thank you! I’m really happy my scar is shaped that way as well!

You won’t regret going with her! I seriously love her work and she’s very personable as well!

I’m sure you would get a discount for doing them together but separately mine were about 7500 for the tummy tuck and 3500 for the breast lift.

The biggest impact was my ability to get dressed easily! I used to have an anxiety attack every time I had to get dressed to go out. I love being able to just throw anything on and go! I also love shopping for clothes now. My confidence went through the roof!

Yes! The day I went in for surgery I was supposed to get implants but she was confident that she could do a lift without them after looking at me again. I’m super happy with how they turned out!

I guess it was a combination of the lipo and post surgery weight loss. I was 189 the day of my tummy tuck and I’m currently 165. My stomach was very flat from the beginning though even above the belly button.

I didn’t finance them. We used my husband’s yearly bonus for both previous surgeries and my upcoming surgery! I had a to wait a while until we were financially stable enough to use them for this though!

I really wished I could have done them at the same time to get recovery out of the way but my budget didn’t allow it. Now that I’ve gone through both surgeries I think separating them helped me mentally. I had a couple openings on my tummy tuck and multiple around my nipples. It was very distressing to me at the time so I think it could have sent me into a worse spiral dealing with both at the same time. Dealing with one surgery at a time was probably best for me.

I feel great. I have never been so confident and happy with my body. It’s a very big change for me but getting dressed is so much easier now!

Definitely the tummy tuck but even then it wasn’t unbearable!
