"It was the best decision I ever made for myself - I had a tummy tuck with lipo and lipo to the flanks 8 weeks ago with Dr. Labrasca. It was the best decision I ever made for myself! Dr. Labrasca and his staff were phenomenal from the consultation through post op appointments. The 3.5 hour drive was worth it!Updated on 4 Aug 2022:Posting a morning of/before surgery and 8 weeks post op. photos as requested. My scar is doing great, I am using scar strips and Biotin oil. I started exercising and get a little swollen after, but all normal. The numbness is starting to subside in areas and some pulling sensation. My only regret is that I didn't do this sooner!Updated on 14 Aug 2022:Posting pictures of my scar & belly button upon request. I am 9 weeks post op. from tummy tuck & lipo. I am very happy with how my scar & belly button look on my belly! Dr. Labrasca is known for his belly buttons..lol.Updated on 17 Aug 2022:Wanted to post pics of my journey at 10 weeks post op. I could not be happier with my progress. I do feel some pulling still when stretching and yoga. My incision/scars are continuing to heal with alternating scar strips & Biotin oil. I have even been wearing a 2 piece swimsuit for the first time in over 30 years! Life is good! Thank you Dr Labrasca!Updated on 28 Aug 2022:I've noticed a bit of swelling after working out and moving more lately. It does go away. I still apply Arnica gel on it and drink Arnica tea occasionally to help. I contine with alternating scar strips and Biotin oil. Still amazed and happy with how my belly looks! I'll compile a list of items that helped me during the recovery and post it soon.Updated on 5 Sep 2022:I am 12 weeks post op. now. I feel great! The swelling is off and on, mainly after working out or moving a lot throughout the day. It does subside though. It's been surreal wearing a two piece bathing suit this summer. At more importantly feeling confident doing so. I wanted to post some items that were really helpful during my recovery, especially in the first few weeks. 1. An extra binder; washing the first one.2. Antibacterial cloths, for washing since a shower and bath are not an option in the beginning. 3. Nightgowns that open in the front, this makes it much easier for the drains and loose for comfort. 4. A recliner. I slept in this for about a month. 5. Arnica gel & Arnica tea, good for bruising and swelling.7. Biotin oil & scar strips, after 6 weeks and when my surgeon approved. These were the most useful items for me.Updated on 7 Sep 2022:Just a couple of pics at 13 weeks post op. Getting back some feeling, numbness is wearing off in some areas. I am pleased with my healing process. Hope I can help someone. I know before my surgery this site was useful!"

"Dr. LaBrasca and his staff are phenomenal. I had a tummy tuck, liposuction & a breast lift and couldn't be happier. I traveled over 4 hrs just to have Dr. LaBrasca do my surgery. I would highly recommend him to anyone I know."

"Dr LaBrasca Makes Me 10 Years Younger! - Turning 41 after my third baby, I knew my face had changed a bit. My eyes seemed down turned and puffy. I looked tired all the time. I have two different Friends that had their “eyes done” by Dr LaBrasca. They all look really good and refreshed and definitely younger than their years. This winter I received unbelievably AMAZING results from a tummy tuck and breast reduction from Dr LaBrasca (please search for my review! The pictures are unreal) I decided to finally go for the upper eye lift and I am so happy I did! It seems most women wait till their in theirs late 50’s -60’s to get this procedure but I would HIGHLY recommend having this procedure in your 40’s. It really turns back time. I wake up and look rested. No longer puffy and squinting in pictures. It is a real game changer and confidence booster. Please have a look at my before and after pictures to see what I’m talking about. I have three young children, I no longer get all dolled up every day to go to drop off and the park :) I now feel great just wearing a pony tail and some moisturizer before I leave the house. The procedure was done in his office with out anesthesia. The bruising was less than a week with some dark under eye circles. Not bad at all! Two weeks later I was completely recovered. Dr LaBrasca is SO KIND! His whole staff is so very gracious and warm. They are simply great people. I flew in for my procedure from Boston and stayed overnight. A week later my whole Family drove back so I could have my stitches out and take a little family vacation there because we simply love DuBois Pa! Please message me for any more information or pictures!"

"Worth EVERY Penny! - I was terrified to go to my first appointment. I didn't want to show my body and then I realized if I was proud of my body I wouldn't be thinking about a tummy tuck and liposuction! Dr. Labrasca and his staff eased my concerns about procedure safety and recovery. At every follow up appointment, they made me feel like a rock star and seemed just as excited as I was with the results! They explained everything to the T so I knew what to expect before, during, and after the procedure. I am so excited about my results. I no longer have to search my closet for the loosest shirt to hide my belly...such a great feeling. I can't say enough positive words about Dr. Labrasca and his staff! The tummy tuck and liposuction was worth every penny!!"

"Tummy tuck and lipo to inner thigh - I am a mother of 2 boys, one 10 and the other 13. I have struggled with my weight all of my life. When I graduated high school I was over 200 lbs, I started to diet and dropped 90 lbs over the next year. Fast forward a couple years I got married and had my boys. I gained 90lbs with both pregnancies, but was able to lose it again after each pregnancy. The weight gain and loss left my body less than desirable. I am almost 40 years old and have been wanting a tummy tuck for as long as I can remember. I have researched a lot and found Dr Labrasca! He is truly amazing, and a great bedside manner.Updated on 5 May 2020:Today is one day post op, I am a little sore but not as bad as I expected. I am sleeping a lot but also trying to walk around a little when I go to the bathroom. I am going to post pictures that are from surgery day. I will post more in a week when I can take my compression garment off.Updated on 12 May 2020:I am 1 week post op, this week has definitely been a roller coaster of emotions! I would go from super excited about my amazing results to why the hell did I do this to myself in about 30 seconds. The recovery wasn’t terrible as far as pain but being restricted to mostly rest and not being able to shower had me pretty depressed. Now that I have survived the week, I had my 1st post op appointment today! I got one drain removed, and I am almost walking straight! I am extremely pleased with my results and could not have picked a better surgeon! Dr Labrasca and his team are all amazing! Updated on 18 May 2020:Today is 2 week post op tummy tuck and vaser lipo to my inner thighs. I went back to work today, I have an office job, I am wiped out and definitely could feel the swelling throughout the day but overall feeling great! I posted pics from this morning before the swelling from the day!Updated on 4 Jun 2020:I am officially 1 month post op today!! I could not be happier with my results!! No regrets!! Updated on 12 Aug 2020:"

"Tummy Tuck...FINALLY! - I’m a mom of three wonderful teenagers, the youngest of whom recently turned 13. This has been something I have been wanting and researching for the last 8 years. Finally found Dr Labrasca and couldn’t be more thrilled with the results!!"

"Hands Down, Best Plastic Surgeon in the Area! - I had 4 babies in 4 years. After those pregnancies, my body would never look the same. Each baby came via C-section and all over 8lbs for my petite 5 foot frame. I also nursed each for a year. I had very loose skin, stretch marks, and a rather large umbilical hernia that caused a lot of discomfort.I was extremely nervous about having a procedure but Dr. LaBrasca and his staff made me feel very comfortable. His extensive knowledge when I asked questions, and his confidence made me feel that I was in good hands. I received a tummy tuck with a breast lift. The operation when great. I had a couple questions while recovering that he was quick to answer and check on me when I needed. As for post-op, I couldn't be any happier with my results. I look better than pre-baby and I have more confidence with myself. I would recommend Dr. LaBrasca with the assurance that he will deliver the most expertise care."

"Feeling FABULOUS!!!!!!!! - I’m 4 weeks post-surgery from a Tummy Tuck that I had done by Dr. Algie LaBrasca. I could not be more pleased with my results. I still have some swelling at this point but I think it looks FABULOUS!!!!I’m a very active person and could never get rid of my pouch in my lower stomach area. Four years ago I tried Cool Sculpting. Sadly to say it did not work. It only left me with three uneven protruding lumps in my problem area. After years of complaints my husband saw an ad for Dr. LaBrasca and suggested that I call. That was the best call I have made for myself in a long time. I would highly recommend Dr. LaBrasca to everyone. He is very knowledgeable, professional and friendly. His staff is wonderful also.THANK YOU Dr. LaBrasca for making me feel good about myself again!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Busy Working Mom Hysterectomy with Bonus Tummy Tuck - So I met Dr. LaBrasca several years ago during a presentation that he was giving about his procedures and work. Of course I secretly wanted everything that he talked about, but really wished for a Tummy Tuck. A busy working mother of a 9 year old, with a home based business for my hubby, and all that comes with a family I knew I would never ever find the time to do something like that for myself, money wise or time away from work, I just pushed it to the back of my mind. A couple of years ago I was diagnosed with Endometriosis. After suffering for over a year even after placement of an IUD, with pain and discomfort for weeks during a month, I went for a more definitive solution, a Hysterectomy. Once I knew I was going to be off work for an extended period of time, the option of a Tummy Tuck was there. So I set up an appointment with Dr.LaBrasca to see if I was a candidate for the TT. I was fortunate to have 2 surgeons who have worked together on different occasion to do a combo procedure of a Hysterectomy with a Tummy Tuck the same day. I am 3 1/2 weeks post-op and could not be more thrilled about my results, and I know that they will only get better over time. I feel like a new person with a whole new body. I was terrified and embarrassed to even let my husband see my belly, let alone anyone else! I remember when I was only hours after surgery and Dr. LaBrasca came in to see in the hospital, and I had my first glance at his handy work, I cried! I am so grateful for what he has given me, confidence to be myself and not to be ashamed of my body any longer.Updated on 8 Jan 2017:Down a size in jeans and feeling fabulous! And it will only get better!Updated on 29 Jan 2017:So happy with my results.Updated on 22 Jul 2017:What amazing results I've had. I am wearing the 1st bikini in 20 yrs. It was a little hard at first but a weekend getaway to the beach has made it a lot easier. Love my outcome and how it has changed my self esteem. All the praise to Dr. Algie LaBrasca."

"Amazing Doctor - Brookville, PA - "I've always been afraid of surgeries and never ever contemplated a plastic one for fear of looking fake or end up looking weird! Due to an excruciating umbilical hernia pain that I had for a year or so and after a consultation with Dr LaBrasca, I decided to go under surgery and do at the same time a full mommy make over [tummy tuck and a breast aug]. What really made me take the final decision was his statement: 'I won't perform a surgery that I consider won't go with your body proportions even if you ask me to' ...that to me was a very honest and professional statement and gave me the tranquility that I wasn't going to be the next 'Dolly Parton' Latin version [no offenses here!]. His bedside manners and after care were amazing and his staff is definitely top notch! Five years later I can say for sure surgery with Dr. LaBrasca was the best thing I have ever done for myself!! I feel great and I will do it all over again if I have to. I still travel seven hours when I need/want any small cosmetic-confidence-booster! Thx so much Dr LaBrasca for being an awesome Plastic Surgeon and human being and for your impeccable work and ethic always!""
