Natrelle 415cc to Motiva RSF+ 625 Cc
Hello everyone! I chose not to verify this review because I have verified my previous experience with Dr. Waldorf, and this is just a continuation of my procedure. As I had shared in my initial post, I explained to Dr. Waldorf what it was I was going for, what my end goal was, and she was very clear that the safest way to proceed would be to go with the max for my chest at the time and see how my body responds to the implants. This is why we settled on the Natrelle at 415 cc.
I am just 2 days post-op from my breast lift by Dr. Kathleen Waldorf, but I am absolutely in love with the results! She has a very blunt and down to business personality, but she is absolutely amazing at what she does! I opted for a smaller than average aerola size (3.5cm), which took some convincing for Dr. Waldorf to do, but she listened to my request and asked me to trust her to do the rest and I'm glad I did! She was very upfront about the possibility of there being some aereola
Hello everyone! I would like to share my story because I spent a lot of time on this website and really appreciated how many people were willing to share their experience. I was so very nervous before my procedure, and reading about people's experiences, and especially seeing the results, helped me a whole lot. I plan to share my journey through all of its stages, so I hope my story can help someone as well. I am a 32 year old mom. I have one child, and my husband and I agreed
I had a breast lift and a face lift with Dr. Waldorf. I was scared out of my mind on the day of the surgery. I stayed at the wilshire center and it was heaven. I woke up later that day not even knowing I had the surgery. My face and breast are very tight and lifted. I am so glad I used her. She is expensive but do you really want a poor facelift. I had a lower facelift with Dr. Chan a few years ago and it was a joke. I was awake during the procedure and it hurt and did not
I've had genetic eyebags for over 20 years and have always wanted to get them fixed, but the time just wasn't right. About two months ago, looking in the mirror I decided I couldn't take it anymore. I talked to several plastic surgeons before deciding on Kathleen Waldorf. My initial consultation with her was good. She seemed straightforward and honest and explained what she could do. She said I was a good candidate since I didn't have any physical conditions that would limit my
Tummy tuck and breast augmentation (no lipo). She went above and beyond to address my insecurities! Doctor Waldorf explained everything so well. Things I didn't even know i wanted to know we spoke about during my consult. Very straight forward I not once felt as if I was a number or pressured to do more. My pain has been little to none. I did all without a single narcotic. Its litterally mind blowing how well my recovery has been thus far. I'm already loving my shape at 11dpo! Updated

Tummy Tuck after 100lbs weight loss
Dr. Waldorf's office is beautiful! The staff are all so incredible. The recovery/surgery center was very nice and comfortable. After loosing 100 pounds a few years ago I was left with a lot of skin/stubborn fat. I decided to have a tummy tuck with Dr. Waldorf in June 2019... and it was the best decision I ever made. My recovery and my results were both fantastic. I can't say enough good things about my experience!
I've always felt very awkward because of my very flat chest. I'm 51 and I've decided to take the plunge. I'm looking to stay pretty small so that it's not a huge change and I'm kind of small framed (5'5", 118 lbs). Getting old is not a lot of fun so I'm looking forward to actually improving one aspect of my aging bod. I think I'll go with 235cc low profile. Surgery is scheduled for August 6 but I'm having a second consultation tomorrow. Updated on 18 Jul 2019: With 200/200 and

Breast implants and nipple reduction
I went with Dr. Waldorf for implants and a nipple reduction after talking with a few other surgeons in the area. She is a “no BS” kinda doctor, which is what I want in someone who is going to cut me open. She listened to what I originally said I wanted when I came in, which was a natural look (ie Kate Hudson), and was very thorough in telling me what she would use and why. I decided I wanted to go a little bigger than I had originally thought and at one point she said she wouldn’t

Breast Reduction
I had a breast reduction at the beginning of April with Dr Waldorf. My consult went so well, I booked her right away. The healing process has been a little tougher than I was expecting, but mostly because I’m a big-time worrier. I had no real complications and even though I know they still have to ways to go- I can already see dramatic improvement with how I look and feel. I can’t wait for the swelling to go down because I know I’ll be even happier. You can tell she cares about
