  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I want all my curvy girls out there to have a post...

I want all my curvy girls out there to have a post to reference. I am 5'9" tall and 180lbs. I have what I would consider an athletic but curvy build. I am a mother of two children, both breastfed. I had my children early in life and I can't even remember what my pre-baby boobs look like. I am fairly broad chested and broad shouldered. I don't see many reviews from girls my size, so I hope this helps someone out there. I am getting my lift and augmentation done by Dr. James Knoetgen. I had my first consultation about 3 weeks ago. I've been considering this procedure for about 5 years now and have hesitated because of my concerns over possible complications and scaring. My PS suggested I'm right at the border of needing a lift and not needing a lift. I'm going with the lift because I don't want my areola to be stretched to larger than they already are and I know gravity will still be here tomorrow and therefore I will battle it all in one procedure.

What can i say really. The man changed my life. From start to finish I've had an A+ experience. I'll explain why.... First of all My biggest fear was huge unnatural looking breasts. Size choice terrified me. Dr Knoetgen gave me a size suggestion based on my goals and then told me the size he would not go larger than. I LOVED this about him. I could tell he cared about my health/safety and getting me results consistent with my goals. I felt like he'd stop me if i got on s Michael Jackson trip with my boobs lol. I was absolutely confused by the fact i didn't have any pain after surgery....I don't want to lead anyone to think their experience will be painless too, but I have to credit Dr. Knoetgen's technique for at least part of the reason because truly I had ZERO pain. My results after nearly a year of healing are beyond my expectations. I really can't say enough about my experience. The staff were always amazing, the office always clean and inviting. I never felt rushed or like i left without all my questions answered. I would do it again in a heartbeat.... But only with Dr. Knoetgen and his staff.
