Dr. Bashioum’s Patient Loves Tummy Tuck

Teri writes: I am now 6 months from my abdominoplasty or tummy tuck surgery procedure. After losing 112 pounds, I had quite a bit of extra skin and wanted a change. Dr. Bashioum and his staff took care of this for me. He tightened up the ‘lazy’ muscles and tightened up the skin. It looks great! I would recommend Dr. Bashioum to everyone. He and all of the staff did a great job!
Dr. Bashioum replies: Thank you for your kind comments, Teri. Approximately 110,000 women choose to have tummy nipntucks in the US each year, according to statistics released by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS).
Many of those patients opt for this surgery as part of the mommy make-over following pregnancy, while others have lost a significant amount of weight like Teri has done before considering surgery. Abdominoplasty is an effective procedure to flatten the tummy and reduce any excess sagging skin (frequently called muffin top) to give the abdomen a more trim appearance. I find that patient satisfaction is extremely high following this kind of surgery.
Patient Comment: Mommy Make-over for Breasts

After breastfeeding both my girls, my breasts were smaller and saggier than ever before. I was wearing a 34A bra and very self-conscious about my almost non-existent breasts. They were also a bit asymmetrical which really bothered me as well. I’m 27 years old and since my husband and I were not planning on having any more kids, I thought it was the perfect time for me to do something for myself. I’m now 7 weeks post-op breast augmentation and EXTREMELY happy with my decision. I am very happy with the results thus far and I’m looking forward to the full 6-12 months healing and end results.
Dr. Bashioum and his staff were amazing before, during, and after my surgery. Dr. Bashioum was available to me on his personal cell whenever I had a question or concern, day or night. His staff made me feel very comfortable with the entire process, very warm and caring.
If I wanted to have any other kind of cosmetic surgery, I would definitely go back to Dr. Bashioum, no questions asked. Regarding my choice in size, I took his advice and went a size larger than I had originally chosen, and I’m so thankful I did!!! I’m now a 34D and my breasts are finally symmetrical! The first few days after surgery were pretty painful for me, but after about 2 weeks, and after the initial swelling went down, I was much more confident with the decision I had made. My husband thought I was perfect already before surgery, but knew that I really wanted this for myself, so he has been very supportive. He is also VERY happy with the results so far, as well.
I would recommend Dr. Bashioum and his staff to anyone who is interested in having cosmetic surgery – It’s life changing. A big thank you to everyone at the Bashioum Cosmetic Surgery Center!
