Dr. Sumida always does an amazing job! I’ve been faithfully seeing him for dysport a couple times of year. The best thing about him is his honesty and he will never try to sell you on a procedure that will not have great results.

I had a tummy tuck and lipo done October 20, 2022 with Dr Kenneth Sumida and could not be more happy. I am still recovering but can say I have not been in pain but more just discomfort, not being able to walk upright and having to sleep on my back sitting up takes a role on my back. We used drains and they were taken out a week later in my case since the last few days prior to my app they were not draining much fluid and I feel better having them out they don’t hurt just more in the way. I think every dr should be using drains when performing a TT, otherwise where does all that fluid go but inside you and make you swell. Today is day 11 and I am still sore but I can walk a little straighter and I can sleep more flat on my back, hopefully by the end of next week I’ll be much better. Here are some must haves for recovering from a TT: - [ ] Heat pack for back - [ ] Ice pack for stomach - [ ] Walker or cane to walk the first few days - [ ] Cold eye pack (helps with headaches) Updated on 2 Nov 2022: This is the before picture of my tummy tuck. It was taken a week prior to surgery. I am very happy with the results so far but still in the healing process. I am hoping that by the end of 3-4 weeks I am completely healed. Updated on 13 Nov 2022: Today is 3 weeks and 3 days post TT, still swollen and tight but feeling a lot better and loving my results so far. My belly button looks good and the scar looks pretty good so far too and it’s so low you won’t be able to see if once I’m completely healed.

Best decision I've made! Dr Sumida was everything, very professional yet down to earth. Everything went better than I was imagining and I am so happy with my results!! I wanted big but was scared to go as big as I did, but he assured me I would not regret it. I put my trust in him and I am glad I did because I would've been disappointed with smaller ones. I love love them! And I wish I had the courage to do it sooner:)

I’ve had butt implants since 2016 and never really needed them but wanted the dramatic fake look so I got them done in Beverly Hills size 600 cc implants, huge, way to big for my petite self at the time 5’1 115 lbs, although the dr gave me what I wanted and did a great job I never had any complications with the implants besides the left side would be uncomfortable from time to time and didn’t seem to drop all the way. Fast forward I 2020 I had another baby gained a good 45lbs and decided it’s time to get them taken out and was easier to do it in my home town. I researched many drs and a lot did not want to touch them to take them out, until I found Dr. Sumida on RealSelf and went to a consult with him and loved him and his staff, they made me feel welcome and comfortable with the whole process. I was extremely nervous about surgery the day of which was just this past Thursday but everything went well. I am a bit sore and it’s hard to sit but it’s only been a few days and can’t wear to be fully recovered, I already feel an immediate relief of not having the implants in there and would greatly recommend anyone to see Dr. Sumida if they want there butt implants removed. Updated on 21 Jun 2021: This is 3 days after the butt implant removal still feels weird back there and to sit down, not 100% done healing. I have a post op appointment this Friday with the Dr to see if everything is okay. Seems to be going well but I can’t wait to be completely healed. Updated on 6 Jul 2021: Healing great so far a little sore and tight feeling and swollen but so far I am very pleased with the results of getting my implants removed. This is 3 weeks out. I am waiting for the swelling to go down some more and will update again in a few weeks after my 2 month post op Updated on 12 Dec 2021: So it’s been 6 months since I removed my butt implants and I am very pleased, my butt is just as big as it was with the implants but way more comfortable now. I did expect it to get a lot smaller but I gained about 50 lbs when I had my daughter almost 2 years ago so I’m sure that helped add weight to my butt. I have been lightly exercising but am 100% back to normal and getting ready for my next surgery with Dr. Sumida (lipo 360). Updated on 5 Dec 2023: Hi everyone this is a two year post op pictures of my butt implant removal.. happier than ever I feel like I’m fully healed and my butt is completely back to normal after removing my butt implants. It took a good year to feel completely back to normal and I had no issues or pain during recovery.

* I breastfed my baby for 2 years. a year and a half of that time I had a ruptured implant on my left side! Once I weaned baby, I had to wait other 8 months before I could get my new implants! But I finally did it!! So happy to have them fixed. No more stuffing my left side lol * My first augmentation was in 2005, I did saline under the muscle. They were great until one deflated in 2019! I suppose it was time for an exchange anyway, just wish I didn’t have to wait almost 2 years to do it. Because it had been ruptured for so long, my left implant had to basically drop into place again.. my right breast was pretty smooth process, just replaced implant and it fell into it’s perfect place. My left was very swollen and was higher up on my chest, which had me worried at first!! I knew that was to be expected, but it still worried me that it would be lopsided forever lol * Recovery has been good! No complications. And my breasts were looking beautiful at day 5 even! Im on day 6 post op and I'm feeling better everyday

I am a 32b or small 32c in Victoria Secret. Slim build 5'4 and 135 lbs. I want to get to a large size D. Talked it over with the doctor and I settled with 480cc saline. I could have chosen a volume between 400 and 510 saline and still be around my target end result. Day of surgery was exciting! My appointment was 2pm and I was so thirsty but stick to the fasting! No food or water. Anesthesia went smooth. Feel asleep so fast the doctor was surprised. Just meditate and let your body relax. Woke up really groggy and sore. Next day was terrible. I had arms like a T-rex. My skin was so tight and stretched. It feels like you can pop your breast with a needle. During this time is very important to rest and sleep. Sit up in a recliner or sofa. This helps the swelling leave your breast for faster healing. Day 2 was worse than day one. The swelling got bigger. Bruising started to show around my nipples and under my breast. Tenderness and sore muscles was at a 8 out of 10. Day 3 to 5 started feeling alot better. Started moving around more and gently massaging the implant. I'll update with photos as I heal. Updated on 26 Nov 2020: Dr. Sumida and his staff are amazing. Right when you step into the office you feel like at home. The staff is always phone call away for any questions or concerns. You can even text afterhours for emergency questions. The surgery went well. They called to make sure i got home safely. Reminded me of procedures to follow at home. Updated on 5 Dec 2020: Went for my week check up last week and the doctor put on antibiotic strips for the scarring. They were looking a little yellow so I took them off, which the doctor said was fine. My left nipple is a little folded from having the bandage on it but a few sessions of massages should get it back to normal. My right nipple looks great. Minimal scars that blends into the areola. The area is still healing and yellow/green. My left is still numb and right is hypersensitive. Updated on 15 Dec 2020: Breast are starting to feel like my own. Still some numb areas. I've been doing daily massages and stretching for two weeks. I feel it helping with tightness and softening them over time. Nipples are healing slowly. Pimples are still coming up here and there. I've been applying aloe vera to help with scarring. Went to try on bras. I thought i fit in a 34D i am now a 34DD.

After two pregnancies and nursing one for 6 months my DD breasts were pretty sad, deflated, and was left with excess skin. I had heard wonderful things about Dr. Sumida and his work. I scheduled a consultation with him and one other plastic surgeon in Granite Bay. After my consultation with Dr. Sumida I was ready to book but had paid for the other consultation so wanted to still get another opinion. I'm so glad I went with Dr. Sumida. I couldn't be more pleased with my results. He restored my breasts to their former glory ten fold! The recovery was painful in the first week but was much better after that. I can't wait to see him next week and discuss a potential tummy tuck and lipo. I know he can do miracles and trust him implicitly!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Dr Sumida! He makes my appointments enjoyable and comfortable. He is very thorough and explains everything in great detail to make sure you understand everything you need to know. My surgery went well, I healed nicely and I'm only a week post op from a BA. I love his personality and now, his work!

I'm finally and officially scheduled for the breast augmentation I've dreamed of! I've never had boobs, and then got pregnant, boobs came in lol and i was able to breast feed for a little over a year, and that ended with full deflation! :( I took the Leap and went In two weeks ago to have my consultation done. Just at the consultation I have never felt that kind of confidence before! Looking in the mirror with what looks like boobs in a cute sports bra, instantly gave me life… I could not stop smiling!! Not only that but Dr. Simuda gave me all the reassurance and confidence I needed to know and feel that I had picked the right doctor for this life changing experience !! I'm officially scheduled for tomorrow morning 5/21/2020 at 7:15 am... any tips or things I should know or do before and after surgery.. and what is the pain like?? You would think after having a child this would be cake but I'm still unsure how i pushed out a baby haha! I'm freaking out and I'm soooo nervous ... I'm afraid I'm going to back out lol!! Btw I have zero pain tolerance... So anxious for this to go as smooth as possible! .. all suggestions and info welcome!! I can't hardly wait to see the magic that Dr. Simuda works on me! Thank you!! Xx Updated on 21 May 2020: What a day!!!! Well 7:15 didn’t go as planned but that’s totally okay, Dr. Sumida’s office was able to squeeze me in at 2 PM today!!! I arrived at 2 PM signed my last documents went upstairs and the preparation began they had told me that surgery was set for 3 PM, the nurse Shannon was absolutely amazing and so sweet and took the best care of me for prepping as I was absolutely so nervous and scared of the unknown! Dr. Simuda came in and brought my implants in for me to see them, he marked me up and explained the difference between Saline and silicone as I had switched to silicone at the last minute (days before) . He even gave me the option to revert back to Saline if I had wanted to as the 355 is a full C small D and I was really set on just a full C. With my figure and being short and petite I really wanted to make sure that I was not top-heavy or my implants looking super fake. I ended up going with a 355 silicone. I’m 5’0, 110-115 lbs. I wish I would have asked more questions regarding the silicone. I was completely set on The incision being on my areola and not underneath my breast but unfortunately that was not the case today and since I had switched I had to go underneath the breast. Definitely a little disappointed in that but there could have been bigger things to worry about. 3 PM hit and they were walking me to the OR!! I laid on the OR table and within no more than five minutes I was out from the anesthesia!!! 45 minutes later I was completed and woke up and was very groggy but overall I just kinda sat up and sat there for a few moments, I was not in any pain just simply a lot of pressure! I stood up, don’t really remember walking out or to the car but I do remember the car ride!! The drive home was a little rough walking was a little painful and hard I definitely had to take my absolute sweet time. Not sure if this is normal but I was sent home with just the bandages over my incision and that was it no wrapping, sports bras temporary bra, hospital bra, nothing lol so that threw me off quite a bit as I had planned on staying in the one that I thought I would receive from the office. So I did not purchase or order the ones that I had originally wanted to order post-op, kind of my fault but I had asked ahead of time and they told me that I would be walking out with a wrapping of some sort. When I got home walking again, was a little hard I had to hold the new girls in order to get into my home. I laid down and have been resting ever since I have the best care team behind me I have not had much pain, again it’s all just soreness and pressure! Day one in the books and this has been the best recovery as I was so afraid and nervous scared that I was going to be in a ton of pain I know day two will be very rough not looking forward to it but I am ready to get this recovery on the road!! Lots of ice, meds, and muscle relaxers that were given prescribed to me of course. I’ve been taking them like clockwork which has made this so much better. I’m not one to take medicine or a fan of meds but it’s totally helping with the pain and I’m simply feeling pressure which I’m totally OK with. I’ve been icing every 15-20 minutes and that has drastically helped with the swelling!! Day one down, bring it on DAY TWO! Updated on 23 May 2020: Woke up this morning and knew today would be the roughest day yet! I’m super sore today, ribs are finally having a feeling of bruising, chest is quite swollen. QUESTION; how often are you ladies icing?? I was able to take my first shower yesterday and it was heavenly!! Back is a little sore as I’m definitely not used to sleeping upright on the couch with a million pillows behind me I am definitely a sleep on my stomach type of gal haha, anyone else struggling with this?? Any tips or tricks for sleeping?? I’m having quite a bit of pain near my incision just on one boob hoping that this goes away sooner than later! Overall recovery is going great had my post op appointment yesterday via phone which was sooo nice and convenient, Doctor says that the girls are looking great!! Any future remedies or meds for getting that incision scar smaller over time ?? Thanks XX Updated on 23 May 2020: These are yesterday / day two and today day three .. 355 CC silicone .. they are still very swollen Updated on 28 May 2020: Officially One week POST Surgery on this very day! My goodness this has been such a smooth, painless, recovery full of pressure! I feel amazing! I’m up walking and finally able to Drive again definitely not sleeping still due to the pressure but overall the girls are feeling good still swollen but perky!! Taking it one day at a time, loving my results so far, ice is definitely our best friend and officially off of the meds :)) Last night I was having trouble breathing it felt like my chest was super heavy and I’m pretty sure that they started dropping as they definitely feel lower and not so up in my face or on the top of my chest!!! Tomorrow we have our post op official appointment at our doctors office as my very first one was the day after surgery and it was virtual, shout out to the coolest doctor around! Sooo very excited to see what my doctor has to say and I believe it’s bandage removal day… Yay!!! Cheers to week one down of having a beautiful busty chest! Updated on 12 Jun 2020: The girls are officially three weeks old as of yesterday!! A lot has happened in just three weeks… Recovery has been so smooth and pain-free, officially off of the meds icing as needed… Still having issues with one boob not healing as quickly as the other I like to call it my annoying boob!! My annoying boob is sore, tender, what feels to be rather bruised but there is no discoloration of bruising which is a good sign... icing regularly on my right boob (the annoying boob), my left is my perfect boob!! The girls have both dropped quite a bit which is awesome they are both settling into place and looking sooo good overall!! Im officially sleeping on my side and officially laying/sleeping on my back (all the way laying down). There is a little discomfort throughout the night but I’m definitely sleeping more than I have in the last three weeks when there is discomfort I tend to ice as needed though the night! Incision bandage strips officially come off today… Yay super excited!!! Overall I am so happy with my results!! Here’s the latest new view!!

Dr. Kenneth Sumida is amazing!!!!! I had a procedure done by another center and my end result was a botched and deformed stomach, back and scarring. Dr. Sumida fixed me up and the result is more than I could have hoped for! His staff is amazing too, so friendly and welcoming! I highly recommend him, you will not find a more fantastic individual and surgeon :) I truly cannot thank Dr. Sumida enough for giving me my new and awesome figure!!!!!! Thank you again so very much Dr. Sumida!!!!!!!!!!
