Breast Augmentation Number 3 - Encino, CA

It's time for my third breast revision. My original augmentation, back in 2000 was saline over the muscle. They looked beautiful until slowly, they didn't due to encapsulation. I rushed into my next augmentation--I'm sad to say I fell for a surgeon who used car salesman tactics. He was great until he got my money. This time I wasn't getting my surgery until I found the perfect doctor. And I went on 7 consults to find him! My fiancé came in with me and he liked him as well due to his professionalism and knowledge. He really did see things that other doctors didn't--and he was one of the few that didn't pressure me into going with silicone. I wanted round breasts and the lowest risk of capsular returning--my fiancé and I both like the feel of my saline breasts. Pre-op is complete, now just awaiting the big day!

The doctor is removing all the scar tissue in my breast (even some calcified!) so my implants won't be riding high up to my collar bone anymore. Switching out my high profile salines (hate them) for moderate profile saline. We went through playboy images at the doctor's office to get the perfect idea of what to get (of course my fiancé loved that!). The pockets are going to be stitched up. My implants, especially the left one have migrated into my underarms. No lift needed, since my nipples are in perfect position. He even said if I were to make them higher I would have trouble wearing anything low cut! It was so great to have a doctor who considered that.

Dr Bresnick is truly an artist. My breast already look beautiful and natural! Lefty still needs to drop, but I am getting excellent care by the doctor and his staff. I have been in every week to monitor my progress. Such a contrast from my last surgery (in Arizona). Then I had "frankenboob" for awhile after my surgery and the doctor saw me once and told me he "hoped" that my implants would drop into place. Turns out he was just as lazy in my surgery and dr Bresnick patiently dealt with the mess that he made. They are truly wonderful at that office. I will post pics soon!

I had a few doctors suggest lifts with both a vertical scar and an anchor scar from one guy! But my purpose in getting a revision was too look good topless--I already looked great in a bra. One doctor barely looked at me (just had me lift up my top) and said anchor lift. Please shop around, ladies. I am completely lift-free and my breasts look perfect. It's your body and once the scar is there you cannot go back. I wouldn't push a doctor who wanted to do a lift not to, but understand that some doctors are simply more skilled than others.
