"Dr. Felice is a very skilled plastic surgeon. He performed my tummy tuck and my breast lift and both were done extremely well. I am 2 months out and am so happy with the results! He is a great dr with great communication skills and is easy to approach with any questions or concerns. I called at almost midnight and he called back less than 10 minutes later. He had excellent “bedside manner” and the office staff is kind and professional. I would recommend advanced cosmetic surgery and Dr. Felice every time!"
"I can't say it enough. I absolutely love my results. Dr. McFadden changed my life forever. He did amazing with my tummy tuck and liposuction. I can't pass a mirror without looking :-) at myself. I knew, the recovery would not be a walk in the park, and it wasn't. Anne Claire is very caring, honest and professional, and takes her time checking the results with every appointment. She takes great "after" pictures, too. I just love everyone, I had contact with, within Advance Cosmetic Surgery, from the first phone calls with Laura for the surgery consultation, the front desk personal scheduling all my appointments, the day in the surgery area with everyone being so friendly and professional, and all my post-op appointments with Anne Claire. I can only recommend Advance Cosmetic Surgery for this kind of procedure. Great place with a great, professional and friendly team!!!"
"Dr Felice did a tummy tuck and Lipo for me. I’m about 4 weeks post op. All I can say is from the surgery itself to the post op appointments I have felt supported and listened to by all the staff! With never having a major surgery like this one, I felt like I always had questions and I loved that when I did have questions I could call and be able to talk to Dr. Felice, Dr. McFadden or Laura the nurse practitioner directly. I am healing great and I can’t be happier with my results. Would highly recommend!"
"I am 6 months out from my tummy tuck and i can say that from dr. felice to the nurses everything has been an awesome experience, words cant explain how happy i feel to have choosen this place dr. felice and the staff made me feel so comfortable and not just a number, and i personally feel very happy with my results i wasnt wanting a model look but more happier to be in my own body and this has been all around an amazing experience thank you dr. felice and staff!!"
"1 day post-op - he was very professional, kind and truthful - I chose Dr. Felice based off a few things to do my tummy tuck. Once we met for my consultation he was very professional, kind and truthful. I also respected him for being very much about my safety!!!!"
"ACS has been amazing from beginning, throughout the entire process. Every staff member is friendly and professional from the front desk, to the nurse anesthetist, they are all clearly there to help so you have the best experience possible. Morgan was especially amazing and truly helped calm nerves prior to surgery with her bubbly personality. Dr. McFadden is not only clearly talented at what he does, but also has awesome bedside manners. Very personable and friendly but also straightforward to ensure expectations are realistic. I received a tummy tuck, trunk lipo, thighs lipo and chin lipo. I love how they go the extra step to ensure the best results, like measurement for two compression garments post surgery and providing bromelain in addition to other vitamins and medications. The facility parking can be a bit tight, but the facility itself is very modern and clean. My husband was very comfortable waiting throughout my surgery and the staff were awesome at keeping him up to date. Highly recommend ACS. They’re the best in the upstate and I will definitely be returning for future needs."
"Dr. McFadden and his staff are great! - After doing some research for a plastic surgeon for a tummy tuck, I went in for a tummy tuck December 2019. I really liked the after results of his prior patients. For 14 years, I had been really self-conscience about my stomach after giving birth. I did not let anyone see it, nor would I look at it myself. I am so happy with my results now!I also had chin and cheek lipo. I have always had big cheeks and wanted a slimmer appearance in the jaw line. I am super happy with those results and the tummy tuck.Because of the great experience, I also returned for other services: Votiva and Botox. I am very satisfied with the customer service experience and services.Dr. McFadden and his staff are great!"
"Jawline and Neck Liposuction - Even at my skinniest, I held on to fat in my neck. Really needing a tummy tuck after my twins but not really being ready to shell out that kind of money, I opted to fix the one part of your body that you can’t hide. I wish I would’ve done it sooner. The difference is incredible and it hasn’t even been a week yet. Worth it ????Updated on 11 Nov 2017:Bruising post opUpdated on 19 Nov 2017:So the first few days after were great. I? was in more pain but less swollen. I? stopped wearing the garment and that was a mistake. The swelling happened over a few days and I? didn’t realize what was happening until I? was in a ton of pain. Updated on 9 Jan 2018:Some scarring inside that makes my neck tight. Hopefully after the next few ultrasound treatments, it will heal up all the way. ??"
"I've had Lipo and tummy tuck, along with five other procedures so far. Dr McFaddens Nurse Practitioners are the bomb. I caught a PE, pneumonia, and renal failure, stayed in the hospital for five days, Dr McFadden came twice to check on me personally. That meant a lot to me. I went from a size 14 down to a size 6, losing 21 pounds. I have an extremely flat stomach. I would do it all again. I'm having my arms and back done this fall, can't wait. I would go through everything again."

"I went to Dr. Mcfadden in 2012 for my breast augmentation and was treated with so much kindness. He and his staff set all of my worries at ease. I was afraid that I wasn't going to get the size breast I wanted and I was not let down. I love my breast and I have since scheduled a tummy tuck for June 2017. This is the only place that I feel I can trust to actually listen to my needs and concerns and not be focused on making money."
"My experience with Dr. MCFADDEN is nothing short of amazing. He is without a doubt the most talented cosmetic surgeon anywhere, bar none. He is as kind as he is talented. The results of my tummy tuck have served to give me back my long lost self confidence. His staff are kind and knowledgeable and always made me feel like I was the most important patient that they had. I can and do highly recommend the amazing Dr McFadden to anyone who wants the absolute best in cosmetic surgery."
"Tummy Tuck. 4 Kids...one Pregnancy AFTER Tummy Tuck - Greenville, SC - I cannot say enough about this facility and Dr. McFadden. The office is clean and comfortable. The staff is extremely kind and helpful. Most importantly my results from my tummy tuck (after 100 lb weight loss) were better than I could have imagined. I evens d a baby (oops) 2 years post pop. I tell anyone who asks that this procedure and Doc changed my life. Do be ready for several weeks of recovery. It's a hard road but so so worth it. I never spent more than 15 minutes waiting in the waiting room...unless I arrived super early.Updated on 7 Jul 2016:I just wanted to share my experience of accidentally having a pregnancy after a tummy tuck. I couldn't find another place on this site to tell this side story. So if there's a better place for this little story...oops! Anyway, I became pregnant 2 years after a tummy tuck. I was happy about the pregnancy but afraid of ruining my results. I was very conscious about my eating and exercise to control my weight gain. I gained about 25-30 lbs. My tummy tuck didn't suffer AT ALL from the pregnancy. I did choose to have some other areas addressed about a year after that pregnancy (love handle looseness). That revision was about $1-1.5k. I didn't absolutely need it, but it was an area I ALWAYS obsessed about and am PLEASED with this procedure already...it hasn't even been two weeks yet. My advice is to watch the weight gain. Eat adequate protein and fresh fruits and vegis. Try to workout too. I lifted weights and ran until a week before I delivered and was fine. Just keep in candid conversation with your doc about your diet and physical activity to ensure health of pregnancy and baby. It's not a death sentence to your flat tummy to get pregnant after a tummy tuck. Just make healthy choices!"
"Dr McFadden and his super team have done my facelift, tummy tuck and skin care with amazing results. He has a fantastic surgery set-up that is professional but friendly. His nursing staff is fantastic (special thanks to his amazing surgical nurse, Kim!) And his office staff are professional, efficient and friendly. Best cosmetic surgery and skin care team ever!"
"Mommy makeover 27yr old 2 CSections - Greenville, SC - So far, I've already had my breast augmentation. My amazing Doctor didn't want to over do it with my body and my healing and suggested we split up the tummy tuck/Lipo and breast augmentation into two separate surgeries. Im thrilled with my perfect boobs and can't wait to have my tummy tuck. One month to go!Updated on 27 Mar 2016:I am so grateful for this Tummy tuck! I feel amazing already. It's been very sore and coughing, hiccups, and throwing up are complete burning hell but I am so pleased already. I had a full tummy tuck with muscle repair, Lipo of flanks and inner thighs. I'm using a lift chair, shower chair, and all my pain meds and they've helped a lot. My mom has agreed to stay longer to help with my 18mo old and 4 year old children. I'm hoping by day 9-10post op I'll be feeling physically able to care for them.Updated on 27 Mar 2016:Updated on 28 Mar 2016:Updated on 31 Mar 2016:What a wild ride this week has been. Sleeping in a chair for 7 days, missing my kids who are in the next room being cared for by someone else, an allergic reaction to steri strips, the emotional and physical aspects of this tummy tuck have been more than originally anticipated. But today is a good day!!!! I get my drains removed this afternoon, I shaved my legs today, and I put on cute panties (I've been wearing my husbands boxers for 7 days so I could clip my drains to them). I'm finally seeing some progress and I'm feeling upbeat again.Updated on 2 Apr 2016:So, today I'm weaker and in more pain then I've been in in 2 days. I want my life back, I want to play with my kids and most of all I want to stop itching. I had the steri strips removed 5days ago due to N allergic reaction. I'm continuing to get more red and swollen and it makes it difficult to see any progress. Just not a good day.Updated on 5 Apr 2016:Feeling...better! I'm alone caring for my children again, which is wonderful!!!! Since my little man is only 20months it has its physical challenges but I'm so glad to be living my life again. I'm finally seeing some progress with my incisions and all the redness. I'm on day 4 of prednisone. At this point I'm trying to stay positive and be easy on myself while I'm healing.Updated on 25 Apr 2016:I'm getting back to my life!!! Feeling like the energetic mom I love to be. I'm still getting swollen at night and there are some areas I'm not sure I'm in love with on my hips and the flank Lipo but I'm making progress with the healing and my spirits are much better than they were. There is something odd that I've never seen anyone talk about and that's the effects I feel the medication and annesthesia has had on my brain and memory. I've done things completely out of character for me lately and I've completely forgotten huge things I was excited about. There's been many occasions where I'm forgetful and again just not myself. I hope I heal from the effects surgery has had on my mind.Updated on 23 May 2016:Not too much to update. Scars are fading and I'm feeling pretty confident. I still haven't felt like work out and I went boating/jet skiing yesterday...super super sore incision today. I didn't realize until today how much I over did it."
"33, 2 Kid's in Need of Tight Skin!!! - Greenville, SC - After 2 kids and losing all the weight I still had loose skin. I had a tummy tuck with Dr. McFadden and he removed all the extra skin. I could wear a 2 piece bathing suit for once in a very long time! I could wear clothes that made me look sexy. I actually went down a pants size!!! I would recommend this procedure and I'd do it again!!!"
"Best plastic surgeon and exceptional nursing and office team. Professional but friendly. I love the results! Best facelift, tummy tuck, and skin care!"
"58yo, Tummy Tuck Plus Revision - Greenville, SC - After loosing over 50 pounds, and keeping it off for almost 2 years, it was time to remove that 'apron' of excess skin and fat that won't diet away. Surgery went well except for heavy bleeding from varicose veins on the abdomen. As a result of the excess bleeding, my body produced an excess of fluid and created a huge seroma, covering my entire abdomen. My plastic surgeon was amazing! He calmly treated every issue my body tossed at him-seromas, eschar (dead skin turned black), split open incisions, and major adhiesence of the entire abdominal area. He cleaned and trimmed and restitched my wound every the days for almost two months. He came in on weekends, during his vacation, and even on his birthday! He and his superb staff were professional, friendly, and skillful."
"In two weeks since seeing Dr McFadden for a surgery consult I have used two other services at this practice both laser leg hair removal and Juviderm lip injection, Dr. McFadden has encouraged me to lose some weight before my tummy tuck and leg lipo and in two weeks I've lost 10.2 pounds. The staff is top notch and I can't wait to go back. They make me look and feel like the only patient in the building even though they are really busy. Dr McFadden will get all my business from now forward. He's the best. Thank You Leslie Faye Haas. Lynn Bisel"
"50 Years Old and Gravity Took Place - Greenville, SC - Back in 2004 I went in for a tummy tuck, well as the age 50 came alone I wanted to have my breast lifted so I knew who to call. The office had moved to a new location I had never been in, clean friendly staff, I had made an appt. went in talk to Dr. McFadden he went over everything I needed to to know, I put my trust in Dr. McFadden and I would do it again."
"Tummy Tuck and then Pregnant! - Greenville, SC - I was divorced with 3 children when I consulted with Dr. McFadden on a tummy tuck. Although I was engaged, I was not planning to have anymore children. I was slim and had lost any baby weight (I was a size 2) but because of my 3 c-sections, I had extra skin. Dr. McFadden decided I needed a mini-tuck with reconstructing a new belly button and some lipo on hips and back. The team there was extremely helpful in planning for this surgery. The surgery was a success but the recovery was painful. Despite enduring that process, I had the results I could only wish for...within 3 months I was in a bikini on my honeymoon. Well, within 6 months...yup...you guessed it - I found out our birth control did not work as planned and I was pregnant! I freaked out, immediately started following blogs and watching videos of other women who had a tummy tuck and then got pregnant. I was nervous my abdomen wouldn't stretch, that my tuck would be ruined, etc. I ended up having another (my 4th) c-section and my ObGyn's followed the same scar as my tuck. Well my baby is already a year and I can testify that Dr. McFadden must know what he is doing! My stomach is just as flat, thank goodness I didn't get anymore stretch marks and my muscles are still tight. So, yes, you can get pregnant after a tummy tuck...and you can bounce back and look great!"
