Dr Davidson and all the office staff were very helpful, professional and friendly. I am delighted with my results. I would recommend them to anyone.

Staff and Dr. Davidson were very friendly. Results were amazing.

Fantastic Experience!!! - Wellesley Hills, MA EXACTLY what I hoped for! I was SO nervous in the weeks leading up to my surgery! But in the end, my recovery has been easier than expected and my incisions are fading so fast! I am 3 weeks post-op and I feel great!!! After two children and two years of nursing, my breasts were so deflated (I barely wore a 32 A) I was extremely self conscious about it. I tried for years to just "get used to it" but it really bothered me.

I was considering body contouring surgery after losing 170 lbs. with gastric bypass surgery at NWH. My doctor recommended several plastic surgeons, and I attended a lecture by Dr. Davidson at NWH. After his lecture, I knew I would choose him. As the other reviewers noted, his qualifications are impecable, but it's his kind and caring demeanor that really won me over. His staff is wonderful, and I felt very cared for and in good hands. I had two procedures in the hospital and one in his board certified office OR. Dr. Davidson was very honest with me, and could not promise the exact results I was looking for because of previous surgical scars. What he could promise was improvement, and I am thrilled with the results. Even after losing 170 lbs., I still felt like a big girl due to the extra skin issues. Now, I no longer feel like that, and have gone from a size 30/32 to a size 6 in the past 18 months. I highly recommend Dr. Davidson, and would return to him again without hesitation.

Personable and professional staff from the front office to the assistants. Dr. Davidson was kind and understood my needs and fully explained the procedure. He made me feel comfortable and my results were amazing!

SOOO Ready for This Change - scheduled for surgery on Aug 19 in Wellesley, MA I am very excited to have found this website and honestly just reading the stories and seeing the photos encouraged me to take some action. I have always had large breasts, however having my son and nursing for almost two years, my breasts are in worse condition. I am a 38JJ and I'm 5'2 and about 180 pounds. I have had back pain since I was in high school. I go to the chiropractor several times a year for several months at a time. So I went to my primary care doctor they referred me to a surgeon. I also found a couple doctors online and scheduled my consultation. I had my consult last week and I was excited and nervous. The doctor told me he would utterly shocked if my insurance did not cover it. I told him I wanted to go to a large C or average D, he advised he couldn't go as small as a C. I am waiting to hear back from them about my insurance's approval, then I will have my surgery. This process is scary and exciting all at the same time, but I just can't wait to look at myself in the mirror and feel better about self and to not hunch over and have so much middle back and neck pain. So it's been two weeks since my consult and I'm so anxious and I'm getting alot of opinions about making sure I see multiple doctors. So I think I'm going to schedule some more visits. Did any of you just find one doctor and go with that one doctor, or did you see multiple doctors? If you did see multiple doctors, how does it work if one doctor has submitted to your insurance company? Thanks for the input. Okay so this process has been emtionally exhausting. I called my ps about 1 month after my consult I was told they had not heard from my insurance, so I called Cigna and they told me this was denied as it was deemed not medically necessary, they deem it as cosmetic. I was literally in tears, I have this since I was 16 years old. I look at my breasts and I actually hate them I wish I can cut them off myself. So they said I have 90 days to submit information for a reconsideration and I also have 1 year to appeal the decision after the reconsideration. So I took a break from this whole process and didn't too much about it for about a week. Then I was going to request all my chiropractors that I been since for last 10 years. My medical records from my obgyn's when I complain of constant back pain. When I received a call from PS and they called to tell me that after doing a little work they got my surgery approved. YAY!!!!!!!!!!!! I swear I could've done back flips. I was soo excited and that mental picture I have in my head of smaller breasts is beginning to become a reality. They scheduled my surgery in August, so now it's a waiting game. However, I did see antoher PS before the whole insurance denial situation and they suggested another method, so now I'm going through the motions of which is better. They advised they would cut around the areola and not have the scar down my breast, which is very confusing because I have so much stretched skin. So now I'm going crazy trying to find out which is better. The first PS would be using the inverted T-method. So my question is has anyone ever heard of this other method and would this really work for a reduction from size 38JJ to D. I am going to post pictures tonight so I can get better answers on which doctor to choose. So after my insurance my procedure and my ps did some work and then got my surgery approved, I'm scheduled for August 19th. I am so elated, I can't wait to have this weight on me. Currently I am a 38JJ and my ps said I would be either a D or DD and honestly I do like have large breasts, just not gigantic and hanging down. So I'm very excited about what the outcome will be. I am 5'2 and I'm 175 pounds, I've been exercising and I even stop eating meat and most carbs. I did this to lost weight but also to try to as healthy as I can as a healthy body will heal quickly and better. I'm nervous and excited about the procedure, I most nervous about my 3 1/2 year old son, I'm a single mom and he's a hugger. So I'm hoping that he will understand mommy has a big booboo. My mother will be here for two weeks but then it's just the two of us, my boyfriend will be around to help as much as possible, but I'm so nervous. I have been stalking this site for sometime and this site and you ladies are what made me got my doctor and talk about having this procedure, I've wanted this since I was 16, but I always wanted to be able to nurse. So with that being done, I'm ready to have my surgery. I'm trying to make a list of things to get before my surgery, if you ladies have suggestions, please send them my way, the best things for scarring, how to prepare my little one for this process. I went out with my son today and I'm typically used to people staring at my large breasts, everyone from women to men to teenage girls. Sometimes I feel like a freak show, anyway today it was different I just kept thinking this will be over in three weeks and there will be no more stares and no more gawking. Also funny thing is I think because I'm so aware of my impending surgery, I feel like my breasts are so heavy and the back and neck pain is even more bothersome. Hello Ladies, I am wondering for all the ladies whose surgery was covered by insured and deemed medically necessary, did you have a hard time with it being covered by your short term disability carrier. I have read the policy and it says that cosmetic surgery is not covered, however since my health insurance has already deemed this medically necessary can they make their own determination and not cover it? My company's STD covers 100% so this would be soo needed for them to cover it. I'm so ready for this to come. I'm excited and nervous at the same time. My PS office called me on Thursday to confirm everything and I didn't know I am supposed to stay overnight. I have to be there at 6:30. I feel like I haven't really prepared for the aftercare, like the rest of you ladies. Sorry I waited so long to update, but it's been crazy. Okay so the process happened so quickly. One minute I was talking to the nurses then the next thing I know I was waiting up and I honestly didn't know the surgery was done until I looked down. I was very sick afterwards, very dizzy and I threw up at least three times, however I think it was anesthesia, when I had my c-section when I had my son I immediately threw up while holding him. Anyway I went home and took my Vicodin every four hours and I took it on clockwork so my pain wasn't that bad. I was nausea and dizzy for about three days, then I took off my nausea patch off and stopped the Vicodin on day four and I started to take Tylenol. So now I'm off the pain meds and feeling good. Yesterday, I had my post op appt and finally got the drains out (side note: I HATE THE DRAINS) it hurt a little to have them removed but all in all it wasn't. Now it is ten times better, I go back to work next week, so I'm trying to get back into my routines and still take it easy. My mom is going back to NJ on Friday, so it will just be me and my four year old. They are uneven but the left one is very hard still so I think it will drop and soften and they will look more even. I'm very excited about what they look like, especially given how they looked before.

Amazing! Breast Lift and Implants - Wellesley, MA Dr. Davidson and staff were awesome. I lost about 60lbs and my breast had deflated. I was always against plastic surgery.

FTT W/Pain Pump 🙂 - Boston, MA I just found out today that my surgery is scheduled for 2/21/12! Woot woot My 41st Birthday is Friday, Happy Birthday to me! I have three children: 13, 11 & 9. I actually don't outwardly appear to "need" a tummy tuck. I am 5' 11" 148 lbs in decent shape. My three pregnancies have still left me with unsightly extra saggy skin and stretch marks. I literally need to keep tucking my extra skin into my jeans throughout the day. I would also really love to wear a bikini again:) When I decided to schedule my consultation I was bound and determined to be at my goal weight so we could move forward with scheduling. I actually ended up below my goal weight so I've started strength training. I have a bit of work to do on my thighs and rear so I've kicked into high gear since I won't be able to for a while! PS recommended a FTT to remove as many stretch marks as possible. PS said flank Lipo unnecessary, MR will be determined at time of surgery. PS does typically perform tummy tucks at his private certified surgical suite with two exceptions. I happen to be one of them! He will perform the procedure at Newton-Wellesley hospital due to a family history of Malignant Hyperthermia which is genetic and can lead to serious complications with general anesthesia. I will meet with an anesthesiologist to discuss my options on 2/14/12. This did affect my final bottom line price. The $9750 for the procedure included the additional costs of having the procedure in the hospital. Naturally I think highly of this PS since I've scheduled to have a tummy tuck with him. I also can't say enough good things about his staff, especially Pam who worked her magic to get me on the OR schedule for February vacation week in less than three weeks! I would also love to thank another Real Self Reviewer for returning my private message and giving me the referral:) All of her feedback was spot on! Oh yeah...my husband is awesome for supporting me in my decision and taking care of me...:) Day 4 post op and feeling good! Resting resting resting..eating good and staying positive...not being a hero and taking meds with no side effects...drinking tons...showered yesterday ..will post PO pictures later with more details...love my DALE binder...LOVE my pain pump..love my scar...have one obvious stretch mark But I'll do what I can to minimize the appearance of it over time...swollen! But I can see past it:) Very pleased..My kids have been unbelievable! 13,11,9 love helping me in/out chair and wait on me hand and foot...hubby AWESOME..holding down the fort and is doing great:) Two weeks post op yesterday and just hit the bathing suit sale at Target...had so much fun trying on suits. Still cannot stand up straight...happy but now REALLY want a BA!!!! Still the best decision I've ever made! still feel GREAT in a bikini:) In need of a Botox touch up though lol! I also am posting my fastest 5K times ever, started running 10Ks and have my first 1/2 Marathon in March:) My tight abdominals help tremendously!!! Just turned 43 & feeling great:)

Nervous Schedualed March 1st for TT W- Lipo - Massachusetts HI, I am 34 yrs old mom of 2 beautiful children 11, and 8. when i gave birth to both children i was well over 215 lbs. Prior to having my babies i was about 130 at 5'3.I have tried the gym and diets but nothing will get rid of this flab i have for skin now!! I have been reserching TT procedure for about 7 yrs now.. I have now finally schedualed my date for march 1st. The time is fast approching now and i am getting scared. I know i have made the right decision and my husband is supportive with me doing this, however im still a little worried.. If anyone has any advise please do share! Thank you for listening to me.. I am going to add a few pictures of my pre tt tummy.. I cant wait to get rid of this! I will add new pics late next week if im up to it. 6 more days!! Im getting excited now.. Keep ready all the threds ladies it help more than you can imagine. Hey everyone! So i am less than 48 hours away from surgery and my house is now all in order. My area is all set up with all i think i will need, and food shopping is done.. I hope i didn't forget anything! I though i would start to get those nervous feeling again as i got closer to my date but im still just very excited to get it done and over with and start the healing process. Does anyone know the best diet to eat while recovering?? I was thinking alot of fresh fruit, yogurt, protien shakes ( which i did buy also)... Anything else i can add to that? Thanks Ladies! Hi! I am now 9 days post op and I have to say I feel really good! I had 1 of the 2 drains removed on Tuesday and the last drain possible Friday. I still have fluid draining and my dr will not pull it out if it's still at 25 cc's in which it has been these last 4/5 days. Yesterday it was actually 40cc ( in 24 hrs) for the first time since last week! I don't like the drain but id rather it be coming out that sitting in me so if I have to have it another few days thats fine with me. I am able to walk around fine I am actually worried i'm doing more than I should. I cannot sit all day it drives me crazy! I'm not cooking and cleaning so much just walking around the house the up and down and streching, and laughing i'm worried will damage my abs.If i laugh to much it hurts and i try not to laugh, but sometimes it happens. Has this happen to anyone else., or is anyone else more active 1 week after surgery? I don't want to rush my self and i feel like im not. Im just doing what my body wants to do. I will update with another picture of two once i have this last drain removed. Hey everyone, I am now 1 month post op today and I cant say I feel great. I am very swollen to the point my binder just rides up when I sit. There is no point in wearing it its not helping were the swelling is really the worst. Im thinking I might call my PS to try and get an eariler appointment with him. I dont see him for another 2 weeks! Has anyone ever taken natural water pills? I was thinging of doing that but I want to make sure its ok..Ill check with my ps. I tried ice and it did work for me. I tried putting a towel in my binder and that didnt work either. IDK what else I can do. As soon as feel like my tummy is back to normal i will post new pictures. Sorry I have not updated in a very ling time. I am going in January for a revision. I ended up with dog ears as well as extra skin on my hip area and pubic area.. its like the swelling never went away. I wear my binder an it makes a difference. But after 9 months I figured my tummy would have taken great shape. I know they say 1 year but its a little disappointing. There is a big difference from the surgery but just need a few tweeks to make it perfect! Hope all fellow march and everyone else have or are healing well.. ill update pictures soon.

this was the most expensive botox around. The staff was grear and the doc has a great bedside manner, however, the botox was not the best I ever had. He was great to see me two weeks after for a touch up but I will stick to my regular (and less expensive) dermatologist for a better botox job.
