"Dr. Gunn is absolutely amazing! I researched for a whole year after losing a significant amount of weight and found him in a Facebook plastic surgery group. I booked a consult with him and half way through the appointment, I knew he was it! He did a lower body lift with fat transfer to buttocks. I can honestly say that I’ve never felt better in my life! I cannot think him and his entire staff enough."
"A Whole New Me! - What a life-changing experience with Dr. Halka! As a 45-year-old woman, wife, and mother, I finally realized that taking care of myself IS taking care of my family. I decided to put myself and my health first for a change and set a goal to lose the excess weight I've been carrying around my entire life. With bariatric surgery, a complete lifestyle change to a low-carb diet, and 4-6 intense 5 am workouts weekly, I lost 110 pounds and have maintained the loss for two and a half years. This was ah-mazing! However, after two years of hard work and dedication, my body was still a saggy, floppy mess even after the incredible weight loss. I decided to go for a Mommy Makeover consultation at Hedden & Gunn Plastic Surgery after following them on Instagram for about a year. I met with Dr. Halka, who was very thorough and took his time explaining everything, answering all of my questions, and addressing all of my concerns. I went on two other consultations in Huntsville, AL, and Chattanooga, TN as those locations are closer to my home, but ultimately, I chose Dr. Halka's plan for the procedure and recovery because it was the best. We decided on a 360 body lift with muscle repair and lipo, breast augmentation with 500 cc Mentor silicone implants placed above the muscle, and fat transfer to the buttocks. The procedure went smoothly with no complications, and I followed the post-op instructions to the letter. Now, 12 weeks post-op, I am incredibly happy with my results. Dr. Halka didn't just perform a Mommy Makeover, he created a whole new version of me. I'm in the best shape of my life and finally, at 47 years of age, I feel confident, beautiful, and comfortable in my skin. I'm incredibly grateful for Dr. Halka's kindness, talent, and expertise. I can't imagine having a better experience."
"I had a pain free recovery - Scheduled my consult with Dr. Fontana at Hedden & Gunn in Birmingham, Alabama because she took the time to call me and talk through my concerns. I had previously committed to a different surgeon but wasn't 100% confident that he was the surgeon for me. After talking with Dr. Fontana I moved my surgery to Hedden & Gunn. She performed a breast lift, breast implants, Labiaplasty, fat grafting to the labia majoras and a TCA peel under my eyes while I was under general anesthesia. I had a pain free recovery. Some swelling and tightness, which was expected, but no pain. I feel like Dr. Fontana's skills are so good that she did my surgeries so well that it has allowed me to heal fast and feel good the entire time. She is super sweet and patient also. I would follow her all over the country!Updated on 23 Mar 2024:Feeling amazing! I was cleared for light workouts at 3 weeks. My scars are not scary! This has been such a confidence booster. I haven’t purchased new bras yet but I’m having fun filling out my current wardrobe!! "

"LIPO IN 5 AREAS, BBL & FAT TRANSFER TO HIPS - ( these photos are only 1 day out of surgery before and after ) AMAZING WORK! So I had already had a breast augmentation 2 years ago with him and loved it. I got 500cc and under the muscle. And they look fantastic he made them look so natural no one ever thought I even had them done! He's super nice and makes you feel like your being heard, I feel super comfortable talking to him about what I wanted. So on May 22nd, 2020 I got a bbl, lipo in 5 different areas, and a fat transfer to my hips. And WOAH WHAT A DIFFERENCE!! He has made me look amazing! He knew exactly what I wanted! I'm just super grateful I have had him as my plastic surgeon, I don't think I could or trusted anyone else to do all of this, he put in a ton of work but now he has made me so happy! I feel so comfortable in my body! I've never been someone who's been super comfortable in their own skin, and he has now given me that! I will say the lipo does hurt but not as bad as you would think! I do not have a great pain tolerance at all and they did have trouble finding a vein in he beginning, but even with that, the anesthesiologist made me feel comfortable and he even put lidocaine before he pricked me! He was actually super nice to, so are all the nurses, I highly recommend this facility!"
"Consult Review: Dr. Gunn is Great! .. Will Update Post Op! - Dr. Gunn is really nice and knowledgeable. I'm fairly thin (5'3 124 lbs) and we are going to do the bbl with fat transfer to the hips. He was fully transparent to the fact that I do not have a lot of fat to graft but he thinks he could give me the results I'm looking for. I had my consult maybe 3 weeks ago. I was excited, and then I got a little anxious so I blew up his phone and emails with questions. He and his nurses were really cool about it. He answered my questions and assured me that he would take as much fat as he could but more than likely, I wouldn't have a huge bubble butt. Which I'm ok with. I'm scheduled for surgery in 3 weeks. Will keep you updated!Updated on 4 Apr 2020:I’m 7 weeks post op. The surgery went well. The first week was torture. It was awful. After that everything was cool. My follow ups were cool. Dr. Gunn and his staff were really kind. I wasn’t expecting a huge transformation because I was a thin woman to began with. My first week out of surgery my results were just amazing. I still look at the pics in my phone just to reminisce. However, we the swelling went down, so did my excitement. Lol. I still look good, just not much different than I did before. My friends all say they can’t see where anything was done. Which for some can be a good thing! Right now I’m working on picking up more weight. Hopefully that will help everything look more pronounced. If that doesn’t work, I’ll just take the L but I’m definitely not considering a round 2. As far as experience is concerned, it was great. The pre op was simple. The surgery was fast. When I got there, it ran like a well oiled machine. My only complaint is my results and I guess I can’t blame anyone for a fast metabolism. It’s a gift and a curse. Well, now that I’ve added photos, I guess I can tell a little. If you squint and turn your head to the side. Haha."
