“Finally I Am Me Again..- Houston, TX”
I was very sad and depress for the past 3 years. I had breast augmentation surgery with poor results. My breast were saggy, lopside and deformed. Losing your body identity and also your self esteem is one of the worst things that can happen to you. I wanted to feel better. I wanted an improvement in the shape of my breasts. I wanted to feel complete again. more
“Breast Implant Removal of 13 Yr Old...”
I had Saline implants that were 13 yrs old, feeling very firm and not moving much at all. I exchanged them for the Silicone Gel implants. I am so happy that I did!! Pros - they are so soft, natural looking and feeling. It am pleased with the outcome and feel that I made the right decision now for my body to change out the old implants. I was glad that Dr. Vitenas assisted me with the best size... more
“Not happy with implant exchange and lift”
I had my silicone implants removed about two years ago by Dr. Basu and replaced with saline implants. He also did a breast lift at the same time. He didn't listen to me when I said I wanted smaller implants. The scars from the breast lift are horrible and one of my breasts is square on the bottom. Very disappointed. I will be having the implants removed.Here are photos that illustrate the... more
“Nightmare Experience Turned Around -...”
I started out with a complicated situation. I had moderate asymmetry in my breasts(2 different sized breasts). My nipples were at different heights and not pointing in the same direction. I spent two months on this site collecting data, reading reviews and even posting prep pictures to try to find a consensus amongst doctors as to whether I needed a breast lift. The time I spent on this... more
“Amazing Doctor!!! - Houston, TX”
After nursing 2 kids, my breast were sagging and much smaller. I had previously had implants and they had become unsightly. I wanted them larger and lifted, as well as new implants. more
I had breast revision surgery 1 month and 3 days ago. I had a capsular contracture of my right breast and had the ps do a second lift and replace my 430 cc saline implants with 475 cc gel implants. Now the swelling is going down on right breast, but still looks too high or my nipples look uneven. I just can't tell or my actual left breast looks to be saggy in a way. What do you think? more
“Postop 1 1/2 Months, Right Silicon...”
I had to replace both of my saline implants due to a rupture on the right with silicon. Both breast looked even at first and now after 1 1/2 months post-op, right is lower and smaller then left. I may be a little paranoid after the rupture. I know its more difficult to notice a leak in a silicon implant, but has anyone experienced this? Could it be that I'm still healing on the left or a... more

“Went from Saline to Silicone....”
I had 11 year old saline implants exchanged for round moderate plus silicone implants. One side had shifted upward and I just felt it was time to replace. Some pocket work was done on the side that had lifted. The silicone implants that were used have a "bottom-heavy" feeling I do not like. Considering switching to high profile silicone. Will this aliviate the heavy feeling or... more
