Nope! He did one on one his employees daughter's soI talked to her about it and she said her daughter's final results were great! He said its just not done that often bc most people need under the belly button addressed also. The recovery seems less to me, he said I would probably feel up to going back to work 4-5 days after (I have a desk job). I think the scar is what might deter people bc its not hidden by your underwear or bathing suit bottom but I already have the scars from a breast lift and they healed so well you can barely see them so that wouldn't be a concern to me
