someone “in the industry” and scheduled a consultation with him. “To be honest, I didn’t know what to expect, but Dr. Harris was great. He’s an active listener with a caring, reassuring demeanor. He’s low-key and not flashy, like you might expect a successful plastic surgeon to be. To sum it up, Dr. Harris exudes class. Plus he understood that I wanted a natural look. I’m a carpool mom. I wasn’t trying to transform myself into a super model. He gave me lots of options, which surprised me, and then we went through everything in detail so I could make my decision.” Kimberly decided on a tummy tuck, breast lift and breast implants, and liposuction on her flanks, and inner and outer thighs. “My results are fabulous,” Kimberly said. “I feel feminine and sexy again, and I have tons more confidence that before. I didn’t realize how much I had been hiding. Now I’m much more active, and it’s helped me be a better wife and mother. We go to the park a lot now, we ride bikes as a family, and I’m not afraid to get into a swimming suit and head to the pool. I love the fact that I can wear jeans that fit without getting them altered.” Kimberly’s mommy makeover has also helped her become more health-conscious. “Both my husband and I work out more and we eat healthier. I want to maintain my investment, and the entire family benefits from this.” BEAUTY FOR LIFE Beauty is ageless.
