Luna Plastic Surgery

As the result of a botched physical therapy session after an emergency appendectomy in April, 2014, I was left with a 16 inch abdominal hernia within which my bowels protruded through my abdominal wall. Due to a cardiac condition I had, this could not be repaired until 6 months after my open heart operation was completed in May, 2015. I had lost a substantial amount of weight (105 pounds) during the preceding 5 years, so my skin formed an apron-​like fold in my pelvic area. The abdominal surgeon felt that plastic surgery would be necessary to remove the skin to facilitate proper healing, so Dr. Patricia Yugueros, chief surgeon at Luna, took me on as a patient. I never, in my life, thought I’d have a tummy tuck, but insurance approved it and I had both operations on 11/​11/​2015. In my four office visits, pre-​op and post-​op, I find it humorous to sit in the waiting area with female patients awaiting their appointments. No one has asked me yet, but I can see the question marks flying over their heads about the 68 year old, balding dude. I am entirely happy with my results. My final post-​op visit with Dr. Yugueros is next month, May, when she will make an in-​office «adjustment» to two small puffy places at the ends of the incision, and I’ll be turned loose.

Dr. Yugueros is amazing and so talented in her work. Everyone here treats you like family and genuinely cares. They offer spa treatments and plastics. I’ve had multiple procedures done here and I am beyond happy with my results!!! I would recommend anyone to these talented people. I will be back!
