From the reviews

I heard about Dr. Colen and her practice through one of my father's coworkers whose daughter had gotten a breast reduction with her and was very happy with the results. I also found out that she was in network with my insurance so that cemented my plan of going there to consult about a breast reduction procedure.

This is my first time ever experiencing surgery. I am an anxious person & always ask for a plan & like to know things way ahead of time. Dr Kari Colen & her staff have done nothing but help ease this process for me.

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.
