I am deeply disappointed with my experience and surgical outcome…read more I underwent a liposuction and abdominoplasty with this surgeon and the results were not what was promised or reasonably expected. The incision was placed approximately 2 cm higher than where it should have been, causing my belly button to sit noticeably higher and giving my waist a squared appearance rather than a contoured one. Despite undergoing liposuction, there is still noticeable residual fat remaining on my abdomen. In addition, the incision was closed without adequate tightening, leaving visible bulging above and below the incision that creates a quilted or puckered appearance. I now have a pooch that I did not have prior to surgery. Liposuction of my flanks and lower back was missed entirely -- not once, but twice. I even underwent a second liposuction procedure, and the flanks were still not properly addressed. The ends of the incision also have what appear to be "dog ears," further affecting the cosmetic outcome. Despite raising these concerns, providing photos, and attempting to have a reasonable discussion, the surgeon would not acknowledge the issues or take responsibility. I was repeatedly told that "no harm was done," and therefore no refund or corrective support was offered, even though the agreed-upon services and expected results were not delivered. This has been an emotionally and physically difficult experience. I am now seeking revision care elsewhere. Based on my outcome and the lack of accountability afterward, I would not recommend this surgeon to anyone considering body contouring procedures. Feel free to reach out 540-336-8162 for more info of my experience with this surgeon. Happy to provide more before and after photos as well. See this surgeon results in attached photos.

This is my preliminary review based on services so far. I'll go back and update after the surgery…read moreitself, and again after my recovery period (3 months). I've seen Dr Sundin at this practice for my upcoming liposuction. He was very friendly, professional, and thorough in explaining my options, treatment, follow up, and answered all my questions. My surgery is tomorrow and I feel very confident thanks to the doctor. Based on the outline I've been given, I don't expect hidden fees (obviously if that changes I'll say something). I have already gotten my medication for post surgery recovery so I won't have to worry about running astound, exhausted and in pain waiting to get my meds. Everyone has been super friendly and helpful and despite youse being elective surgery, no one has come even close to body shaming me which I appreciate. I'm happy with my body and weight, with the single exception that I'm going in to address. At no point did the doctor attempt to disparage any part of my body, even what I came in to address, only asked what I wanted. Edit: Post surgery I can't tell if the hospital tried to double charge me or if there was a genuine computer issue, but the intake rep was great and only charged the correct amount. The lead up in hospital was friendly and helpful, answered all my questions ahead of time. My follow up is later today since one of my incision sites is leaking. Overall, I'm very sore, but only in minor (threatening to verge into extreme) pain when I move or make to stand up. My legs feel fine so I keep thinking I should walk around, but I know better thankfully. The drainage site is right at my panty line so I'm having to wear my panties a few inches lower than I normally do which is a little annoying but whatever. Depending on when surgery is, I definitely recommend dresses immediately following to accommodate access to drainage bulbs. I left around 5pm yesterday and got home and settled at 6pm after my scheduled start asst 12 noon. That's all I can think to share that's relevant but if I think of more, I will of course edit.

Negative Plastic Surgery Experience…read more I'm sharing disappointing experience with Virginia Institute of Plastic Surgery. In Jun 2024, I underwent a lower face and neck lift. I had also paid for earlobe reconstruction. This procedure was forgotten due to missing paperwork. At follow-ups, concerns about loose chin skin were met with suggestions to wait or try costly treatments like Genius microneedling ($2,550). When dissatisfaction persisted, further surgeries were discouraged and more expensive treatments were recommended. In Jan 2025, after continued dissatisfaction, Dr. Reps Sundin advised that no additional procedures should be performed under the chin. He recommended a Browlift and Upper Blepharoplasty, with an estimated total cost of $10,650. When I told Dr. Sundin that I had recently retired, he said that I am now on a fixed income. His comment implied that I probably could not afford his services anymore. In Feb 2025, another plastic surgeon in Richmond Va, commented that my neck should have been pulled tighter.

Second times a charm... I had a minor procedure done here and the ease and efficiency was flawless…read more I was greeted personably and within moments Shelly had me back in her office. She was totally chill and friendly creating a relaxed environment. I was done in no time. The prices are reasonable and the service is professional. My second visit was just as smooth as my first! Personally, I'm not too crazy about the industrial, minimalist vibe of the place, but it's clean and they practice Covid protocols. I love the plant wall at the reception desk. Parking can be challenging in this Libbie/Grove area, but there's a self pay parking lot in the back but they validate.

I also paid the extra 2grand for the lipo in the side boob area. Not only did he take way too much out, he didn't do my lipo during the surgery. He offered for me to do lipo in his office while being awake the entire time which ended up being a traumatic experience as I felt a lot of it. When I expressed concerns about how small he'd taken me he suggested I come back to him to get implants. Worst experience with a doctor ever.

Another issue today and Tracy wanted to interrupt me when I was speaking. I have a feeling their response will be that I am just upset about not receiving a product and that is not the case. I was upset prior to this about how they treat customers. Make you feel like if you have to ask how much a product or service is, you don't need to see them. It is unfortunate that they can come off condescending. Wasn't always easy to get appointment and I will go elsewhere where you are appreciated for your business.
