Happy with my Results 550cc Saline HP Under! - Honolulu, HI

I am 12 days post op and I love my new breast!!!!...

I am 12 days post op and I love my new breast!!!! I am one happy girl. I'm 5'1" 104lbs 21 years old with two amazing babies. I went to Dr. Chu because my mom and friends went to him and recommended him to me. I scheduled surgery October 1st, but called 5 minutes later to change the date to a week after my consultation! The whole week before surgery came flying by so damn fast!!! A blink of an eye and it was Friday already, September 7th. I was anxious, excited, scared, and every emotion there is!! I was a wreck. I took my medication at 7:30am and my husband drove me to his office at 8:30am. Surgery was scheduled for 9am! When I got into the office the medication got my mind off of that craziness, all of a sudden I wasnt even scared anymore... I just wanted my new pair of twins!! He drew on my chest and I went into the surgery room and got on top of the bed, the nurse wrapped me in a blanket and strapped my left arm down. The last thing I remember talking about with Dr. Chu was about my tattoos and I was out! WOW SURGERY FELT FAST! I'm up again and really drugged out, I see my husband and that was it. I don't remember leaving the hospital, getting into the car, walking up the steps to my house, and getting on the couch. When I was finally up and moving my back hurt for couple of days but the percocets worked really well for me. I would've thought BA would be really sore, it's not as bad as everyone made it seem. I was a champ! When I went into my post-op, he measured my ribcage it was 24 and he measured my chest it was 37, he told me I was bigger than a DD! Hell yes, I wanted tigolbitties and I got it. I love Dr. Chu. He gave me 550cc what I wanted and nothing less. I go back to my two week check up this Friday to learn to massage the breast so it drops into the pockets! I was only 7 days post op and my breast had a natural look to it already! Anyone ladies in Hawaii looking forward to BA I recommend Dr. Chu! So excited to go bra shopping :)

Great review?

Looked at every doctor in Hawaii and for some reason I always seem to land back at Dr. Chu as my first choice. When I went into my consultation he explained everything so perfect and was so nice. He did not push me into getting a certain size or a certain implant. It was all up to me and he was there to listen and would give me what I want.
