36 Yrs Old, Mom of Twins 5'7"
I was left with very saggy belly skin after having 3 babies via c sections, including a pair of 7 lb twins. I could not stand to wear a bikini or even form fitting tops. I was constantly asked how many months pregnant I was for years. A mommy makeover was a dream that finally came true 6 months ago. I had TT with muscle repair, 450/485cc breast implants (no lift), and lipo of the flanks, upper abdomen as well as under the chin /jawline. The recovery was not as bad as I expected,
I am 27 years old . I just feel like it's time for me to be happy and do what I always want to do for myself . I started look for top plastic surgery around my place . I found la jolla plastic surgery center , I honestly didn't do a lot of research . I just know that it's the best in San Diego . So I called them for consultation and with any doctor that available . I'm in such a rush . When I want something , I want it now !!!! So I went for consultation , I feel so comfortable
Hi all! I am 6 days post-op right now. So far the recovery has been better than expected! Pre-op: 32 A (estimating this- I usually just wore sports bras and bralettes.) Post-op: intention is a mid C cup 310/345 cc silicone Natrelle mod+ Here is my experience thus far: Went in at 9am, surgery at 10:30, left around 1pm. Surgeon marked me up, anesthesiologist came and spoke with me a bit, and then the nurse led me into the operating room. I laid down on the table- it was comfortable
I'm 5'0", 118 lbs & 36, a mother of two and I breastfed both of my children. I have no stretch marks nor any sagging, but I've always desired more volume to my breast. I'm somewhere between a 34a and 32B comfortably. I desire to be a small D cup. After consultation at the La Jolla surgical center with Dr Roark we decided sub muscle 435 cc. Sientra silicone (gummy bears), round smooth full moderate profile. My BA surgery date is this Thursday and I'm so excited! I'll definitely

37, 4 Kids, Breastfed Them All, No Breast Tissue Really Left, Right Breast Uneven - San Diego, CA
Dr Roark did a augmentation for my girlfriend. Im not the yelper, or reviewer type, but feel like I should because his professionalism, courtesy and demeanor is worthy of a review. He gave me the choice to do the lift or not. I was a small b, and my right breast was lower, and the nipple was larger. Im only 10 days out of surgery, but so far so good. They are even. Although I still have pain, some swelling amd recovering so I cant give a final result, I will say hes a compassionate
I can't say enough good things about Dr Roark and his nurse Sarah Celeste. I am 62 yrs old and have wanted a facelift for years. I was a long time smoker and quit 6 months prior to surgery but still chewed on some nicotine gum. Nicotine use is a #1 cause of hematoma after a face lift followed by high blood pressure and a hematoma was what I got. The hematoma was detected a couple of hrs after the surgery so I rushed back to surgery and Dr Roark had to open me up again to

I've always wanted to at some point but knew I would only do it after having kids ...Now with 3 boys 8-7-5 its time .

Once I start looking, I though i would go with 250-275cc .....Im 34 AA ...breastfeed my 3

Excellent Experience with Botox - San Diego, CA
I'm in my late 20s and wanted to take some action in preventing the development of the wrinkles around my eyes. I have a tendency to get pronounced more than 1 inch long crows feet when I smile even though I fpractice a very healthy life style and follow my skin care regimen religiously. It started to change my apparence and shake my confidence. I started to avoid smiling as much as I could resulting with that I didn't feel like myself. I thought hard and long about this

I looked in the mirror and thought I looked tired and run down. I'm so active and energetic and wanted my outside to reflect my inside.
