I am writing this 1 1/2 years post-op for two procedures, Liposuction as well as Breast Augmentation.
I had very thoroughly researched both procedures and doctors extensively to obtain both the best results as well as the best doctor possible to perform these two procedures. My research led me to a great doctor in St. Petersburg Florida. He is Board Certified, recommended by the ABPS, and has over 16 years of exclusive plastic surgery experience.

After two punitive consultations, he was a breath of fresh air, informative and truthful. After our initial counsultation, I knew he was the right doctor for me. Both of my procedures turned out fantastic and I am thoroughly pleased with my results.


Here are more details:


How results differed from what I expected:
They are better then expected

Biggest fears pre-procedure:
The unknown - what was it going to turn out like and what were people going to think about me

Healing aids used:
Arnica gel along with Vitaman K and fish oils

Number of doctors consulted:
3

Number of years I thought about having the procedure:
10

Had an elective procedure before:
Yes

Complications or follow-up procedures:

Not Specified
