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.

Post-op notes from the doctor
1. Wait 3 days until your first shower. Use a wet towel until then.
2. Stitches come out 10 days post-op.
3. Wear the compression suit for at least 3 months.
4. Bruises from the harvesting site will last 2-3 weeks while swelling will last 2-3 months.
5. Take pain the prescribed medication as recommended.
6. Don't touch, massage, or press breasts for a month. If you must wear a bra during this time, wear a wireless one.
7. No saunas, drinking, or smoking for one month.
Extra notes, provided by yours truly :p
1. If you can, try to get the operation done during the winter time. It's easier to mask the compression suit.
2. Try to get the operation done during a time you can rest comfortably for at least a week. I got it done during a long weekend and 4 days was not enough. It's no fun going to work all sore :(
Bye! x

delayed: 1 month post-op update
Hello! Sorry for the delay, it's been very busy here.
A lot has happened in the past month since the last update. Good things, don't worry :)
First, I went in for both my ultrasound massage appointments, each a week apart. The treatment is suppose to help break down the fat in the fat harvested areas so it can heal evenly. If you've ever gotten an ultrasound, you know the drill. They plop a cool cream on the areas the device will run over to protect your skin and apply ultrasound heat for about 10 minutes. It's nothing like an actual massage so don't expect to go in there and get pampered... you'll be disappointed ;) The appointments were covered in the $2,700 operation fee, so no additional payments were made.
Continuing on the topic of my thighs, the awful bruises were all gone by mid-June, so about three weeks after the operation. However, they are still a little tiny bit sore. Maybe not so much sore as sensitive? It's really nothing to worry about though. The first couple weeks were hard but I can do just about anything except the splits now. But I wasn't able to ever do that. I'm just saying, you probably won't feel the discomfort much performing day-to-day activities but if you plan on doing intensive yoga or something you might feel a strain.
As for the breasts, they've remained the same size for a couple weeks now so I'm pretty sure this is the final result. I'm very happy with the outcome. Though it's not a big difference, I'm able to properly fit an A cup bra and it makes the world of a difference to me. I didn't do this to achieve a Beyonce-esque body (is it even achievable? haha). I just wanted to do it for myself. I feel the size suits me well :)
Attached to this update are photos from the clinic. Their photo quality is much better and they were happy to share them with me and I'm more than happy to share them with you! The pictures are pretty self exmplanatory. Note the small scars near the armpit and inside the knee. The ones next to my hip bones and under my bum are covered by the underwear and bum fold but you get the idea - small scar visibility.
Hope this has been helpful. Let me know if you have any questions/concerns and I'll try my best to answer.

10 days post-op update
Hello hello! I visited the clinic this weekend for a quick appointment where they removed the stitches, changed the dressing, and took some pictures.
The bruising is healing slowly but surely and soreness is down to a much more bearable level - its similar to how you feel the day after skiing/snowboarding. The best part about this is that taking off/putting on the compression suit isn't such a painful task anymore. The breasts have lost some volume but I'm still very happy with the retention so far. It feels very natural/proportional to my body.
Everyone at the clinic was super friendly and kind. There will be another appointment in a couple weeks for an ultrasound massage session for my thighs... Not entirely sure what that process is going to be like but I'll be sure to let you know once I find out :)
