I chose Vivify after carefully researching several other Doctors and practices. I truly feel blessed as Dr Buchanan turned out to be fabulous. He was meticulous and exceeded even my picky taste. Dr Buchanan is very attentive, positive and you will find him confident about his amazing skills.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Buchanan and the entire team! From my very first consultation to my final follow-up, the experience was truly exceptional. Dr. Buchanan is not only incredibly skilled but also so easy to talk to.

★★★★★ — Jennifer, Jun 2025

There are so many exceptional reviews about Vivify. In case you aren’t sold, here’s another one. I have had a really great experience with Vivify Plastic Surgery, Dr. Buchanan, and the entire team. I discovered the practice nearly a year ago now and I am so glad I did. Let’s start with the vibe.

★★★★★ — Kirstin, Feb 2026

First and foremost Dr. Buchanan is the best plastic surgeon. I needed my implants to be removed and had other consultations, but no one was making me feel comfortable enough to proceed. Until I found Vivify! I called and left a message for a call back from the patient coordinator.

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.
