Im not saying he's not a good Dr., but I do think he needs more experience. First BA and revision I have been asymmetrical. Not sure how that can happen with Saline implants. Also overfilling a 320cc implant to 460cc is not a good idea in my opinion. I'm not the Dr so I figured he knew what he was doing but apparently some women don't mind having bowling balls stuck to their chest. He did offer to fix me for free but I just did not feel comfortable having him work on me a third time. I just feel he was not a good match FOR ME. Now I have to get a revision with a different Dr and pay a lot of money for it.

So does this mean your only getting a revsion and not all new boobies(silicone)?
Yes, I am getting Silicone on July 10th. I cant wait!!! I started a new review with new Dr. under breast implant revision. XOXO
Wow, I hope you love the silicone unders. I'll have to see if I can find your new pictures & information. I have 425cc silicone moderate plus under muscle smooth round implants & I love the way they feel! I absolutely agree, when u spend a lot of money on something you want to have the best possible outcome & results! Thank you for sharing your journey, I pray your breasts are fabulous & that you have been able to enjoy your breast, instead of having to go back again & again.
I am so much happier now!! Check out my other review under Breast revision. :-)
I am so sorry to hear your experience was so troublesome, when I saw the first pics I thought they looked great. I think because we really don't understand what we are asking for after we go in and say I want size C OR D and they instantly confuse you with its not the size its the cc. I know I saw my PS a couple time to go over the cc and you end up having to just trust your doctor and his experience. I hope things improve, I have learned from my doctor patience is the key to this procedure. 6 months to 9 months is where you can begin to judge is this what I wanted. I am only 5 weeks out but I hope you get what you want.
Best wishes to you and your outcome. I actually would not have touched my boobs after the first BA if it wasn't because one was noticeably bigger than the other. I thought they looked great too. But when you spend so much money on something especially on your body you want it to be the best it can be. Not perfect but very close. I just feel that my first Dr was not very detail orientated thats all.
I completely agree and understand...best wishes.
When you added to the saline, was it under a local and in the office? How was the recovery? I think you said you were able to drive yourself? Just curious in case I decide to go a tad bigger thanks
I also commented in my other review for you. The procedure was not in his office. It still had to be done in the OR. And yes since it was just local anesthesia so I was able to drive myself there and back home once I was done.
Hey, I can't seem to find you under your new review. I still want to follow u and your updates on your new boobs coming. ;)
Hey Cher!!! Just click on my name and you should see my first review on the top then my second one under it. If not just look under breast implant revisions. :-) I got 12 more days!!!
Thanks for sharing your experience...it will surely help me in picking my PS
I'm glad. Best wishes to you and your jouney!!
Just stopping by to say "hi" again and to follow along on your journey! :) Gosh, that really stinks that you've had such a hard time getting to the results you want. Even though you look seriously beautiful already, I can understand why you'd want to get things "right" in all aspects. Thanks for your openness about your experience, I'll really be rooting for you and your upcoming revision surgery!! :)
Thank you so much!! I really do hope this will be the end of my jouney atleast for a long time. :-)

Advise...

If I had to give just one advise about picking your PS, I would definitely say that the most important things besides reviews are years of EXPERIENCE. More than 10 years of doing breast augs would be best I think. If a PS has plenty of years doing this and you haven't found negative reviews then thats a good sign. That is one thing I regret with this whole experience. Not picking an experienced PS. We live and learn right. Some us just have to go through the bad. :-/. Best wishes to everyone.

Girl I hear ya and I'm so sorry you've had to deal with all this unhappiness! I can definitely see the diff in sizes, of course I can't tell the hardness from pics but I can only imagine how painful that is!!! Hurry up July!!! If it weren't for the size diff your boobs are gorgeous!!! So take heart that once you get this second revision, you should be completely satisfied and be able to put all this behind you.
Thanks so much love for your kind words and concern. I really do appreciate it. :-) Yes hurry up July!! Lol
I never really get on this but remember u had your revision and the down side you went through. I'm in fear of the capsule coming back. I hope everything works out for you. It does get depressing.
After this revision, I don't feel my breast feel the same as each other. The right now feels slightly tighter. But I'll do the massaging and not work out my upper body and see what happens.
I can see that one of your breast are slightly bigger. (Left) will u be revising it? How much time has it been since your last revision?
I had my revision in July 2014. I switched to a different PS and went from Saline to Silicone and they are finally even. Dont think my previous PS had a lot of experience. Check out my breast revision review. Give it time it will get better.

Still in pain!!

Just wanted to update a bit. Well things are still the same. Not happy with assemetry and uneveness. Also have a lot of pain on right breast especially at night to sleep. I guess the pressure when I'm lying flat makes it worse. I just pray every day that someone cancels before my revision scheduled for July 10th!!! With new PS of course. Here are some pictures as of today. My right side is bigger and lower. Plus they feel VERY hard!!! Hate it!!! Can't wait to fix this situation. So depressed lately because I dont know if they will ever look normal and feel nice. I hate that I picked the wrong Dr to work on me.
