Dr. Ali Husain is a very gifted surgeon! I had a breast augmentation and lift 6 weeks ago. He was very professional and made me feel comfortable through the whole process! He took his time to explain and answer all of my questions. He also has a very good reputation with the city hospital! They don’t call him the boob god for nothing, as his work definitely speaks for itself! I am extremely happy with the results that I got! Thank you once again, Dr. Husain and all of the alura team!
Dr. Husain is an extremely gifted surgeon. I went to him for a tummy tuck and liposuction of the back and flanks. This was a 6hr+ surgery and I was very scared. Dr. Husain explained everything in detail in our first meeting and answered my numerous questions patiently. He is very professional, calm and caring. I never felt upsold like other offices in the area. His staff was professional and efficient. The day of the surgery Dr. Husain came in, did his drawings on my body and answered last minute questions that I had. The nurses came in and brought me to the operating room, all the while talking to me and keeping me comfortable and calm, After the surgery, I stayed at the hospital for one night (good thing as I do not react well to the anaesthesia). The next day I was recovering at home with family taking care of me. The bleeding and bruising was minimal as Dr. Husain treats you well when you are in his care. I am now starting my third week of recovery and have no pain. My main discomfort is the hunched over walking and not being able to sleep fully stretched out yet. I know this will get better over the next few weeks. Love my new body, love my new look and apparently it will get better as the swelling goes down. I have been delaying this procedure for 10+yrs due to fear and now that I have done it, I would highly recommend Dr. Husain and the Allura team. I chose the best plastic surgeon for me and got the best results. So happy!!!
So I've wanted labia plasty for as long as I could remember, since a young child I never felt quite normal, I've only currently turned 18 so finding a surgeon all alone and doing all my research was a very hard but I ended up choosing dr Ali Hussain at the esteem clinic in Brisbane, I was hesitant after booking in because 1) the surgury only costed 2999$ all anestesia included compared to places that were 6000$+ so I found it a bit sus but I'm so happy I went through with it dr Ali Hussain is truely an artist and I had an amazing experience
Wish I had done this sooner. Although one breast has to be lifted a few cm, I am beyond ecstatic with my results. I'll be having my 2nd and 3rd surgery next month with dr housain. He has great bedside manner, has made me feel very at ease and comfortable every time I've seen him, his staff is great. I wouldn't go to anyone else in the area.
A relative of mine works in the OR and told me Dr. Housain is very patient and takes his time, and would be recommended over the other plastic surgeons in the city. Dr. Housain and his staff were very caring and knowledgeable, they addressed all my questions and concerns and I felt very comfortable with them. :) If I could go back and redo my experience I would not change a thing! The wait time to get into surgery was quick, the surgery went perfectly and the results are even better then I had anticipated. I couldn't be happier with my decision!
I am now 2 days post op. I don't know why I chose itty bitty as a user name, I guess I'm not used to them yet! I am 34 years old. I weigh 100 pounds, and I've never had boobs. They got even smaller after breast feeding. Operation went great. Dr. Husain was wonderful! I am feeling pretty sore and I am still getting sick (not sure if it's from anesthesia or pain meds). I went with 290cc because I wanted them to look proportionate to my body. I find them a bit big right now, but from what I've read, swelling is normal. Updated on 17 Jan 2013: Changed my profile name to no more padded bras because that was all I wore! I thought I'd add information about the day of operation. I think the hardest part for me was not eating from midnight until after the surgery. The nurses were great and kept my mind off of things. They were very professional and friendly. I was there two hours before surgery. A lot of waiting but because nurses were so nice, the time flew by, oh and my husband was there too! ha, ha. The doctor marked where the implants were going to lay and where he had to make incisions. I walked to the operating room but some places wheel you in. The anesthesiologist put in the IV. I felt dizzy and nauseous, and I was just thinking it's going to be two hours from now, but I will feel like it's one minute. And sure enough, I woke up and it was over! I had new boobs. You have to stay in the post-op room for about an hour, I stayed for about two. I started feeling sick right at the end, because I ate a piece of toast. I took extra drugs because I was feeling sore. Came home and rested, but I did get sick a few times. And I have no appetite which is weird because I'm always hungry. Updated on 18 Jan 2013: I guess I should add that I got moderate 290cc sub muscular. I hope I got all the terminology right. Is anyone out there worried like I am that something will go wrong? That they'll collapse or they'll end up looking crooked. I feel like I'm constantly questioning if I should be doing the things I do around the house, like I did the dishes today. I just want everything to go right. I love the changes to my body and don't want to go back. This almost feels like it's not even real. Anyway just having one of those days where I'm thinking too much, ha ha! Glad I took today off of work. And I hope no one notices when I go back to work, although I had done a gradual increase in padding leading up to surgery. Updated on 19 Jan 2013: Woke up fine. Thought I was back to normal. Yeah, I'm not on meds any more! Yeah, I can actually get off my couch. I have two toddlers, so this point is pretty important. I played with them, we went to Costco. As much as it was nice to be out among the living, I think I did too much. Very hard to do things when you can't lift them. My girl wanted to go to the public washroom and my husband isn't taking her to grosse boy public washrooms. Washing hands looked ridiculous when she had to stand on my knees. She thought it was fun. I hope I don't do anything to screw up the recovery process. Well, I guess we'll have to play "sleep", the wonderful game of taking out all the blankets, making beds and pretending to sleep. I have a wonderful husband who is helping out which is why I have a few minutes to write this (amazingly), but I feel like I should do something. And just realized that I finally have bigger boobs than before mentioned husband! I'm so excited; it's so worth it all! Updated on 25 Jan 2013: Went for my week after post-op appointment. Doctor said everything was looking great. I think I'm just impatient for them to drop and soften. They are so high.My doctor said it wasn't necessary to massage them, but he did show me how to if I chose to do so. I am still very satisfied with the results, and can't believe my eyes whenever I look down and see boobies! I am feeling more and more like myself every day. This surgery so far is totally worth it! Updated on 31 Jan 2013: 2 and a half weeks and they are super sensitive! When will they start feeling like part of my body? Is this normal? They look great but I can't stand to have anything touching them and feel uncomfortable most of the time. Updated on 26 Feb 2013: 6 weeks is where it's at. I feel so much better and have since I was about 4 weeks out. They have dropped nicely and am loving them every day!!! This is the best decision ever and the only thing I regret is not getting this done earlier! - new pics of 6 weeks
I'm a 33 year old mother of one...she's 14. I mourn my pre pregnant body soooo much. I felt like nobody really understood my misery until I found "realself". I finally talked my husband into agreeing to this tt. He claims I don't need it and that he loves my "jelly belly". Well I don't believe him because I can't even stand to look at myself naked. I refuse to have sex with the lights on and on the off chance that we do end up doing it during the day, I get so disgusted that I put a stop to it. I absolutely hate shopping for myself. I don;t own a pair of sexy underware, what's the point right. I never look forward to summer cause all of my friends and sisters wear their bikinis and i'm stuck in the nasty one piece. I always wear a long tank top under whatever i'm wearing just incase my top shirt rides up and someone sees my stretch marks. I'm sorry to sound so negative but this is honstly how I feel. However, I can finally see the light. My ps's secretary has me scheduled in for the end of august 2011. I havn't been given an exact date yet. I can't wait. 15 years of hiding what I honstly consider to be my deformity will finally be gone. I'll post some nasty before pics as soon as I have my exact date for surgery.
So after many years of longing to be able to fill out out anything bigger than A cup or a super padded B cup (made me feel better lol) I am finally actually having a BA !! I've had lots of thoughts about doing this...like is this selfish, unnecessary, shallow etc, I've come to a place of just being thankful that I can afford to do something for me that will make me feel even better about my body than I already do. I've nursed 2 babies, which I think is awesome but my little breasts took a beating ! Lots of stretch makes and enlarged areolas. I am scheduled to have high profile 415cc under the muscle with a Benelli lift. I don't really need a lift as apparently I have minimal drooping but my areolas will be reduced. I'm so looking forward to finally having a more womanly body !! Updated on 27 Oct 2016: Ahhhh 1 week exactly from my BA surgery !! Just got off the phone with the nurse from the Moncton Hospital! I'm so excited and nervous. I love reading all the reviews and this site has been invaluable to me ! I hope journey will be of some help to others too. Updated on 5 Nov 2016: It's done !!! Pain is totally manageable ! They are very high and very square ! I love them already tho! For those of you waiting to have your BA, I'd say don't be nervous... For me, so far, it's not as painful as I thought it would be at all ! Updated on 6 Nov 2016: Here's the progress Updated on 6 Nov 2016: Feeling pretty good overall. Tired mostly and need lots of naps but the pain is, again, no where near what I was expecting !! My nipples don't hurt, sting and so far, no zingers but I have feelin in both ! I'm starting to see the bruising and my stretch marks look puffy Updated on 14 Nov 2016: Things are good. I went for my one week F/U appt. and everything looks good. I was hoping they would take off my bandages but they just leave them until they fall off themselves - so I just have to wait to see how my peri-aeroelar lift looks ! My PS also advised me not to massage. I'm fine with that but don't most PS recommend massaging ?? Updated on 23 Nov 2016: All is well! Not much change really and I am getting a bit impatient with the tightness, although that is lessening all the time, and how the Benelli lift looks underneath the tape !! My implants felt like 2 red bricks up under my chest for the first 2 weeks and I can say that they are finally starting to feel like a part of my own body! Updated on 15 Dec 2016: So I'm at 6 weeks post-op ! I got the tape off last week and initially, I was thrilled but on closer examination, my right areola is flatter and larger than the left. This has always been my "trouble" breast. So the left areola is is puffer and the right is flat as well as different sizes. Now that I've had time to adjust and remind myself that they are sisters, not twins, I feel they aren't so different I can't deal with it. I've considered the possibility of revision but I'm going to wait the 3 months to see where they land. I'm afraid the issues I read all about with Benelli lifts, has happened with me. I also had had to understand that my pre-op breast tissue was very stretched with deep stretch marks that have affected my results. I think, even with some discrepancies in areola size ( and it's fairly minor ), my PS did an amazing job ! I'm still thrilled with my new body and gave no regrets ! I will say, it's quit a journey tho. Lots of changes almost daily with the way the look and feel. I had 2 days or horrible itchy boobs..so itchy and sore it was almost unbearable. That has passed now thankfully ! Updated on 19 Dec 2016: So, I'm struggling with my uneven areolas- which I hated before I had BA and one if the main reasons why I underwent BA !! My right breast is flat and stretched out and my left is puffy. I'm hoping these will continue to change and I won't need a revision !! Updated on 19 Jan 2017: Who knew getting a rack would be so complicated ?! It's wonderful, scary, patience testing, obsessive ride ! My areolas are a different size but that seems to be improving but now my right breast is looking a little odd shaped and it hasn't dropped like the left one. I have to remind myself there not done yet! Overall, I'm still thrilled with the improvement though and don't regret having this done at all ! I was a 34 A or a very padded 32 B. I'm am now a 32 DDD. Nuff said :) Updated on 26 Jan 2017: I'm at 12 weeks post op and things are going pretty good. My areolas seem to be evening out a bit but I can feel the permanent sutures in one and I can't in the other (which is the one that is stretched out further) so I'm still wondering if the stitch let go and that why the areola is bigger and flatter ? I have a follow up scheduled for mid February so I'll get some clarification then ! I'm happy happy happy with the results either way tho :) love having boobies !! Updated on 26 Jan 2017: Forgot to post updated pics Updated on 12 Feb 2017: Things are changing all the time ...small changes but my implants seem to be settling well. My chest gets really tight if I work out or if I'm really cold...like morning boob tightness without the pain. Still very happy with my decision ?? Updated on 16 Mar 2017: I'm just over 4 months post BA and all is well! Bathing suit shopping for a trip in a few weeks was a bit challenging but fun! It really has taken me some time to figure out what style works best and I've definitely found that halter bikini tops are the most flattering as well as the less modest triangle bikini. I find I have been on a shopping frenzy since I had BA trying to find more flattering styles for my new figure. Lots of fun ! Updated on 31 Oct 2017: I am almost at the one year mark ( just a few days shy ) and I'm still very happy with my augmentation. Things have settled nicely and I am happy with my decision for sure. I go for my one year appt next week. With the Benelli lift, I have noticed some puffiness in my left nipple so I'll be addressing that.
During my consultation I was told wait time would be 10-12 weeks. It's been 8 months and I still don't even have the surgery date yet. (Surgery is 4-6 weeks after you're given your date). I feel it this is the wait time for this surgeon that they should be honest and upfront about it. His receptionist is rude and unprofessional, and doesn't return messages or emails. Not only this, but I've since gone to a different plastic surgeon who told me the implant size Dr.Hussain suggested was way to big and would have sat in my armpits and been very risky for me to have done. I'm so happy I chose a different surgeon and would not suggest Dr.Hussin to anyone.
I am 25 years old and I have two children via c section ('08 & '10). Gained about 80lbs with the first pregnancy and 30 with my second. After working out and dieting continuously, I still hated my stomach no matter what I did due to the loose saggy skin and stretch marks. I had my initial consult May'13 with Dr. Ali Hussain but due to my work schedule I am just now getting it done March 2014. Updated on 8 Sep 2014: Hamburger belly! Updated on 8 Sep 2014: 6 months post op still have some stretch marks... And I need to get back to the gym Updated on 8 Sep 2014:
