Looking for Plastic Surgeon in Bergen County, NJ or NYC



Recommended Posts

Hello! :)

I'm a little over halfway to my goal, and now is the time I want to start thinking about the possibility of plastics in the future. I am looking for recommendations for plastic surgeons in the Bergen County NJ/NYC/Westchester area that you have had good experience with. I will be looking for a panni (no Tummy Tuck, just skin/fat removal), maybe a little bit of Lipo on my legs, breast lift/reshape (no implants), and possibly a thigh lift. I'd also like to get a lower eyelid lift to get rid of my dark circles, but that's optional. Also, not to be TMI but is lipo on the pubic mound a thing?? If so, I might consider that also.

I am starting to look now because I want to be prepared for the price when I'm ready to go into this. I'm hoping I won't need it, but in case I do, I'd like to have all the info I can!

Thank you in advance!!

I would do a search on realself.com - look at before and after photos and read reviews.

My advice as someone who lost a lot of weight and had plastics - don't worry about it just yet. Stay focused on getting healthy now. When you get to goal, you can do some free consults to give you an idea of what they recommend.

good luck!

Hi. I just had a Tummy Tuck and breast lift. I am one week post-op. I work for the plastic surgeon that did my surgery so I have seen a lot of his work and trusted him totally. His office is on the upper east side in NYC. He has an incredible bedside manner. He is not the most expensive but also not the cheapest but by far the best work I have seen. I am a nurse and take care of all of his patients first day post op in a hotel. Feel free to ask me any questions or pm me if you want his name and number. I couldn't be happier with my results and at one week post op you can imagine everything is still so swollen and bruised.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
