Dr Malan, heck no! He has TONS upon TONS of BAD reviews online. Also he IS NOT a board certified surgeon!!! He is only a gynecologist playing surgeon. All of the bad reviews say he has a horrible bedside manner, that he left them lumpy after lipo, etc. I would NEVER go to him! The two Dr's I'm considering are as follows:
Dr Shapiro of Scottsdale http://www.shapiroplasticsurgery.com/ he is board certified, and specializes in different forms of lipo including Hi-Def Vaser which is what I want.
Also Dr Edgardo Zavala-Alarcon of Chandler http://www.ciaobellamedicalspa.com/ He has a good bit of before and afters, he specializes in transfers to the breasts and buttocks, he was excited to know I use the Noogleberry pump and endorses pump usage before and after surgery.
Those are the two local ones I'm considering. Dr Zavala-Alarcon is less expensive in price but doesn't do the hi-def vaser, he also doesn't do general anesthesia, he does twilight sedation. You have to check to see what your Dr offers when considering a Dr. Also you mentioning Malan, I have to guess it's because he pays a ton in marketing. Just because a Dr is widely known through TV does not mean he is good or reputable. It only means he is spending money to get more clients. Dr Shapiro doesn't do that type of stuff because he doesn't need to. He is always booked for months in advance. Picking a good Dr for this is crucial ladies. Please do your research.
