The Ultimate Revision With Phenominal Results... - New York, NY

The reason why I did the surgery was because it was necessary before any further trauma was caused by the tearing of the implants. My advice to anyone having any procedure done is to always go with your gut instinct & before you decide have a second opinion! Only you know your body better than anyone else!!!!
I came to Dr. E for a second opinion on a breast implant procedure & revision I had done & it went wrong. When I arrived at the office it was nice, quiet & cozy. I was greeted on a first name basis, everyone knew who I was before even getting there. Immediately, I met with Dr. E, he came in & hugged me hello, then asked how can I help you. I did not tell him my situation, as I needed to know if he saw what I was experiencing! He took a look, wrote some things down & asked me, tell me whats wrong. I explained & he went in depth about my complaint & that it was imperative I have this corrected before any further damage occured. I was furious because, the Dr. who had done my surgery told me it was all in my head. Dr. E explained, it was not in my head & yes what I was seeing, feeling & experiencing is occuring! whooo, I was relieved, unfortunatly there was no guareentee how i would look afterwards. We discussed the procedure & 2wks from my 1st visit, I had my revision. In Dr. E's words "let it be the last"... & so it was, Amen
My revision entailed a special procedure known as strattice to ensure that there would be no further complications. I awoke to happy group of people, who dressed me & even put me in a cab home! That same evening I recieved several phone calls from the Dr. & the days to follow. When I returned for my follow up, I was explained in depth what my procedure entailed & why. Then he checked my scars which were already fading, removed my drainage tubes to prevent excessive swelling & showed me my before & after. I was in shock!!! Everyone was in awe, even the new staff, thought I was there to have my breasts made smaller. when told I was a revision follow up, their face drop, they thought my breasts were really mine! Now that speaks volumes. He was able to correct my implants that tore thru the capsule & sutures. I can genuinely say with all sincerity after 2yrs & 2 surgeries with a diff. Dr. & 1 final surgery with Dr. E, he is in my opinion the best surgeon in NYC you can be blessed to find. Dr. E not only provides you with his skills, but also with mental & emotional support before during & after your surgery. He goes above & beyond his job description. He is worth every visit. Im proud to say I'm a patient of his =)

Yes the strattice does increase the price of the procedure seeing as it must be aquired from an outside source. Strattice is very difficult to aquire as it is in limited supply & takes time to grow... its is usually referred to as gold, lol but it is well worth the investment in the long term for many reasons. As for the nipple placement, no it does not bother me at all. That is the way I am anatomiclally. Each womans nipples are different & located differently on the breast. No need to change what isn't wrong with you naturally, unless you are concious of it & want to change it, always do what makes you feel good & happy with yourself. I understand your position all to well concerning your implants, as my 1st implants were gravitating to my armpits & I was only post operative 3mths...
The pictures as you can see of the 1st surgery not by dr E. Were at 4mths post operative & the second set of pics of my final revision with strattice with dr E. are only post operative at 2mths & now come june it will be a yr. Hopefully I can post a pic at a full yrs healing time =)
My recommendation to you is do your research well on the strattice talk to your dr about the price & ask about the nipple palcemnt. Ask of the pros & cons. Concerning your particular procedure. Remember although most procedures seem similar, each one is tailored to the individual as the dr sees what best suits you. Once you are satisfied & comfortable with everything then move forward.
Wishing you the best of luck!!!
