I had silicone implants put in over 20 years ago...

I had silicone implants put in over 20 years ago and one of them had ruptured, so this was not your ordinary augmentation. My whole right side had to be reconstructed, and still with Dr. Epstein, there was no pain afterward!
Dr. Epstein's technique causes no bruising, so there is hardly any pain. I had my arms over my head while I was still in the recovery room. After I returned home and took a 2 hour mandatory nap, I was good to go. I needed no pain medication, just some advil. My breasts are now beautiful and I am extremely happy! I am 4 weeks post op and feel as if I did not have any surgery at all.
My Doctor: Mark D. Epstein, MD
My rating:
My entire experience, from the initial consultation to post-op, was actually an enjoyable one. The whole staff, especially Dr. Epstein, are friendly, patient, and kind. I highly recommend Dr. Epstein and his trained staff!
I'm glad this went so well for you! Thank you for sharing your story here on RealSelf. I wish someone would order me to take a mandatory 2 hour nap! LOL.
What sort of implants did you go with for your revision?
