Hi all!

I'm hoping some of you have some recommendations or referrals to plastic surgeons in the area.  I've finally made up my mind and I'm ready to take the next step to take me to the next level of this amazing journey.

Any info would certainly be appreciated!  I live in Walnut Creek but can travel anywhere in the Bay area.

I'm also considering heading out of the country for the procedure(s).  Has anyone else done this, outside of Mexico? 

Thanks so much!

Thanks so much, Barb!  I've reached out to Dr. Mariotti's office to schedule a consult next week.

Happy Friday :-)

I appreciate the info!  I am also looking at surgeons in Turkey (of all places!)  My inlaws are there and Turkey is quickly becoming a go-to place for plastics.  I don't want to rule anything/anywhere out at this point.

Enjoy your day!

I highly recommend Dr. Eric Mariotti in Concord.  He has done my tummy tuck, breast aug., arm lift, butt lift, outter thigh lipo & thigh lifts.  He does excellent work and the after care you receive is amazing.  Good luck with your search for the right surgeon.

Thanks so much, Lisa!  I have reached out and have a consultation next week.  I'm hoping to start the process as soon as possible.  After procrastinating and going back and forth making the decision, I want it all tomorrow.  :-)

All the best to you!

I'm just starting the process myself and had a consultation with Dr. Eric Mariotti in Concord, a couple of months ago. I found him very personable, skillful, realistic, and honest. He will show you before and after pictures of former patients who had similar issues to yours and how they looked after the surgeries. I plan on having a couple of more consultations, but I wouldn't be surprised, if I ended up going back to Dr. Mariotti.

My consult was with Dr. Mariotti in Concord.  He actually talked me out of getting a facelift.  I found him very professional, attentive and thorough.  We settled on augmentation w/o lift and a lower body lift which he said would help about 25% or so with the inner thighs as well taking a wait and see approach on whether an inner thigh would be necessary later.
He is conservative in his approach when it comes to augmentation....favoring natural over OMG.

How did your consult with Dr. Mariotti go?  If he showed you the before & after pictures with the sun tatooed around the belly button & moon & stars on the back, those are mine.  When I look at my before pictures it is hard to believe that I use to look like that.
