From the reviews
Michelle, Natalie and Dr. Shatkin are the most knowledgeable, professional with the highest, and outstanding skills I have found on my aging journey. They have the most up to date equipment and know exactly how to target the areas of aging that may depress you.
I had an amazing experience! After several consultations elsewhere, Dr. Shatkin and his team stood out by making the entire process smooth, informative, and reassuring. They took the time to explain everything and answer all my questions thoroughly.
Part 1. I am so glad I went there. I really appreciated the professional atmosphere, but even more, the personal attention from Dr. Shatkin and his staff. I feel I know what to expect and was glad to have clear guidelines that will lead to the best success. Part 2. So the surgery was done two weeks ago.
11/21/25 I’m one week post-op from a tummy tuck and liposuction (stomach and hips) with Dr. Shatkin and I am so impressed. Even with the swelling, my results already look amazing and far beyond what I expected this early on. Seeing my new body in the mirror actually brought me to tears. From the very beginning, Dr.
Researching a tummy tuck?
A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is major surgery with real risks and a recovery that usually runs several weeks — this page is a starting point for finding a surgeon, not medical advice. The most useful next step is a consultation, where a surgeon reviews your health history, examines you, talks through your options, and gives a personal quote. Bring questions and don't rush the decision.
Questions worth asking: Are you board-certified in plastic surgery (and can I verify it)? Where would you operate, and is the facility accredited? Can I see before-and-after photos of your own patients? What are the risks and the realistic recovery timeline for me? What's your revision policy if something needs adjusting? Whatever a listing says, always verify certification directly with the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) at abplasticsurgery.org, and discuss your candidacy, risks, and recovery with the surgeon.
