I am 23 years old, 5 foot even, and weigh approximately 100 lbs. I wanted a breast augmentation for reasons none other than feeling feminine and more confident. I went to 5 different consultations with various doctors in the Houston, TX area, and Dr. Steely + staff made the decision to go with them extremely easy. They are down to earth people that made me feel comfortable the entire process.
After coming to the conclusion that I wanted Doctor Steely to perform my surgery, we decided on silicone implants that were 250cc's. Mrs. Cindy and I discussed dates to have the surgery that best accommodated my schedule. There were plenty of options and I chose one that was about a month after my first meeting with them. I was instructed to stop consuming caffeinated beverages and most medications that cause blood thinning about two weeks before my surgery date. Surgery day finally arrived and I got dressed in the hospital attire. Dr. Steely and the anesthesiologist met me in pre-op and gave me a Valium to calm my nerves, which helped greatly. The surgery lasted around 40 minutes and I felt zero pain once I woke up from the anesthesia, (I remember asking Dr. Steely a hug after the surgery and he gave me the biggest bear hug! SO awesome to have a doctor who isn't arrogant and robotic). The implants sat high on my chest and were firm to the touch for about one to two weeks after surgery. I had a post-op appointment about a week after for Dr. Steely to check everything out and he said they looked great. He provided clear instructions as to what tasks I would be limited to, including lifting anything over 5-10 lbs., sleeping on my back, still postponing intake on most medications, only showers no baths, and how to "massage" the implants. I followed his instructions to a T. Around two or three weeks after my initial post-op appointment, my stitches were removed and I bought a properly fitting bra from a boutique Mrs. Cindy referred me to, along with a discount for my purchase. Fast forward two or three more weeks, I went to my final post-op appointment, and Dr. Steely took my after pictures. He also felt around the implants, ensuring me that everything was healing properly. I am now 8 weeks post-surgery and I have never felt more like myself! This is something I never in a million years thought would be achievable for me! They look natural and are proportionate to my petite frame. I could not be more satisfied with Doctor Steely's artistry and talent, along with his understanding of each individual's desired result. If you are on the fence about which board-certified surgeon to perform your breast augmentation, do yourself a favor and pick Dr. Steely and his amazing team.
