Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- 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.

Insurance bill
OKay, I got my insurance bill in the mail. $10,180 for "outpatient surgery" (even though I stayed overnight). $2,163 for "assistant surgeon," $2,536 for anesthesia, and a whopping $21,575 for everything else. Holy Moly. Good news is, my patient pay is 0.00. Thank heavens. I have to give a huge thanks to my job, since otherwise I never would have been aboe to do this. I will now look at my small boobs and think..."my $35,000 lovelies." perfect or not, they're mine, and seeing this bill, I'm pretty happy about it.
Oh, I forgot...
He removed 2115g from the right breast, and 2260 from the left. 10.6 pounds total!
Sorry it's been so long!
Where do I begin? I'm sorry it's taken so long to update.
I've been so very lucky overall. I had no problem with nausea. I definitely recommend asking for the patch if you are nervous about that before surgery. Also, pain has been pretty minimal. I used pain meds for about a week, then went to Tylenol, with just the occasional pain med if it was a long day.
Overall, everything is healing well, but I have had some major dryness! Dr said I could use lotion, and that has helped a bit, but I do feel pulling a bit at the sides, and the flaking is gross! I have also said some mild bleeding below the nipple rarely, and since the skin is so dry, when I removed tape with the gauze over the bleeding, it ripped open some skin to the side! Yikes! So I've been trying to keep gauze in place without tape.
Work has been a little challenging, because there are a few things I can't do, and I'm a little tired. But really I'm glad to be back to routine, and I'm eager for everything to get healed up!
I went from a g cup to what appears to be a c cup, which is what I wanted. I'm still eager to see how everything looks when it's all healed.
I'll post new pics later. And I have to say thank you to everyone here for all your help!!
