Always Kept Nipple Sensation

I wasn’t sure what to expect and thought there would be a chance that I’d lose feeling in my nipples, but I’ve felt them since the day of! I love that Dr. Horndeski’s bellesoma method works this way! Here’s an update 4 days in. Kind of look the same to me. Feeling great, pain is subsiding. Still don’t feel right to drive or be running around town just yet. Wearing gauze pads with my bras, since my breasts are releasing small amounts of fluid at the cuts. I got some at target that have a little mesh encasement. They’re super soft and non-irritating. The Bali bras are still working great. Tried a Victoria’s Secret one but the wires pushed too wide into my boobs and I don’t want to cause any strange indents. Sticking to the Bali bras from target, they’re perfect!

Before pic

This photo was taken before my bellesoma breast lift. This just reminded me of another experience with another surgeon, and how different it was.

Years ago I consulted with a different surgeon who offered the traditional anchor scar lift, and suggested implants because he claimed that they would not look good without implants. That doctor did not care to see examples of what I was hoping for as far as results. Instead, he was kind of arrogant and said that he is like an artist and he will do what he thinks is best, that I don’t get a choice in the matter. This threw me off and made me feel uncomfortable to even ask basic questions. After seeing that surgeon’s work, his breast lifts were awful and he left the breasts with nipples that were too large, and the breasts looked fake and unattractive with terrible wide scars under the nipple.

Fast forward to my experience with Dr. Horndeski- he was happy to see what I was going for, and happy to listen and understand where I was at. I knew I didn’t even have to tell him what I wanted because of the results I’d seen from him. I knew he would do a perfect job, but it was really nice to work with someone so humble and attentive when it comes to one of the biggest decisions of my life. I fully trusted him. You should always feel that way about your surgeon. If you don’t, RUN!

Day 4

The pain has significantly decreased, but I’m also still taking painkillers. They are looking better and better each day. They are healing nicely, and I’m so excited to comfortably wear cute clothes. I’m still shocked at how amazing of a job Dr. Horndeski did for me. They came out perfect! I’m mentally still trying to wrap my head around the fact that this is permanent. I’ll never go back to that feeling of fear, deep insecurity, and sadness over this. It’s just confidence, freedom, and joy now. Priceless.

I highly recommend Dr. Horndeski to anyone who needs a breast lift or reduction. The results speak for themselves. His work is by far the best there is.

I also want to clarify- my left breast is slightly larger than my right. That never bothered me, and I specifically asked Dr. H not to try to correct it. I wanted him to focus solely on doing the lift, and if it begins to bother me later I can do a fat transfer. I don’t see it ever bothering me because it’s so minimal. Right now I can’t wait to take off the steri strips. They come off two weeks after surgery date.

I will keep updating!

Dr. Horndeski is one of the world’s greatest plastic surgeons. Certainly the very best for breast lifts and reductions. He designed an effective method which hides scars, rather than the traditional way, which leaves a horrendous and obvious vertical scar beneath the nipple. Most people are afraid of change, or are to lazy to really apply themselves to their craft. Dr. Horndeski is not an average person, and not an average surgeon. He has applied all of his skills and dedicated his life to creating a better way for this issue to be truly fixed. For women like me going to a regular surgeon, we would normally have to exchange our insecurity of low hanging breasts for the insecurity of an obvious, ugly scar on our slightly lifted breasts. Many of us refused to get surgery over the awful scar that other doctors claim is “necessary”. I feel like Dr. Horndeski was guided by God to take the path that he has. I’m sure it’s come with it’s fair share of criticism and problems to create a better method. I’ve even seen many other surgeons criticize him on this forum. But when you look at what they do to a patient, and what Dr. Horndeski creates for his patients, it’s night and day. No other surgeon performs such wonderful breast lifts with such wonderful results. I am beyond happy that I chose him. All of his staff are wonderful, helpful, kind, and comforting. Best experience of my life, would do it 100x over. Never go to anyone else for a breast lift or reduction.
