From the reviews

I am 6MPO reduction, It’s life changing and I still can’t believe this is my body! Dr.Nowillo and her staff were so wonderful, she did make me lose weight to lower my BMI before she would do surgery, but it honestly was a benefit and b/c of it recovery was much easier than I expected, and safer for going under…

★★★★★ — Tracy, Mar 2025

Dr. Nowillo is an incredibly caring, empathetic, patient, experienced and talented surgeon. I previously underwent several procedures by another surgeon at a different hospital, and experienced many complications and setbacks in my breast reconstruction journey.

Dr. Nowillo has consistently demonstrated exceptional professionalism, courtesy, and empathy throughout my recovery process. Her compassionate and understanding nature has left a lasting impression on me.

★★★★★ — Stephanie, Jan 2026

I had Dr. Nowillo perform a surgical procedure and I'm extremely happy with the results. We discussed the options and I was very comfortable with the whole process from the beginning to the end. Her staff were also wonderful to work which made the entire procedure less stressful.

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.
