Dr. Lomonaco in Houston?



Recommended Posts

hi

i booked my PS with dr lo. i wasnt sure if i was even going to proceed but after doing research with a few doctors...i decided on dr lomonaco.

i like his methodology and approach towards the surgery. also he really guided me on what i DO need to do and more importantly DONT need to do. he was the only surgeon that gave me guidance in the "dont need" area

i also got a great feeling from his staff. they remind me of Dr Spivak's staff which have made this journey much easier.

i will do TT, breast lift and bootie augment....

timing is still up in the air...my niece's wedding is in august and i go to NY for 6 weeks sept/oct.

so i am scheduled for nov 11...however if they have a cancel within the next 2 weeks i could go then.. i want to be healed for the wedding

Josie,

That's great!! I'm so happy for you!! I'm scheduled Jan 7th. I didn't want to do my surgery till after christmas so my fiance's family wouldn't see the bruises and such. Dr. Lo is doing Lipo on my neck, lifting my boobs, tucking my bra roll. I'm going to go see him again next month to talk to him about actually tightening the skin on my neck (if he thinks I'll need it) and doing lipo/tucking on the two areas under my shoulder blades on my back (they look horrible). I can't wait till my surgery!! Let me know how yours goes!!

hi brandy

since our surgeries are close in timing we can coach each other. i'm acting like "no big deal" because it is so far away. as we get closer.....i'm a scaredy cat. in fact i always say i'm like a man when i get sick or in pain ha!

the one area of question that bugs me is my tricep. so i am going to work out this area with weights (i hate tricep exercises) and see the best i can get it before deciding if i need to do it in phase 2. i really dont want that scar...so i will try my best.

anyway...keep me posted on your second meeting.

Will do!! Look at it this way, if you can handle the band surgery, you can handle this!! We have been thru so much already, this will be nothing.

**waving at BrandyK**

I'm in Pearland and have 'back boobs', TOO!!

I'm wondering when I should call to set up a consult or attend a seminar with Dr. LoMonaco -- I've still got a long way to go to get to goal, but once I'm there, I don't want to languish in this deflated fat suit one day longer than I have to!!

Nana,

You are doing great!! It never hurts to make an appt now, besides, it'll take about three months for them to get you in. They can always have you come back in closer to your surgery date for pics before surgery. This way you'll know what he can do for you and how much it will cost, and lock in his pricing in case he goes up anytime soon. His pricing is great, and his bedside manner is awesome. His staff is very sweet and you feel totally comfortable with him. I'm counting down till January when my surgery is scheduled. I tried on wedding dresses last weekend and I had major skin folds hanging over the top of my gown, it sucked!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
