By far the most amazing experience from the consultation to the surgery to the post op visits. The staff are all very respectful, helpful, caring, and personable. I got a breast augmentation and I couldn’t be happier with my results and the whole process. If you are thinking about getting plastic surgery I would recommend them over and over again! Can’t say enough how great they are.
I came to him because after children, my breast were empty C cups. He must have went though about 5 consults with by the time we scheduled surgery. He was kind and direct, with more knowledge than I was prepared for as far as what to expect. The first three days post op are the toughest, but not anything to be afraid of. It been 3 months and they have settled beautifully. The scars are smooth and barely visible with their placement being under the breast. Updated on 5 Oct 2023: I am still happy with my choice in using dr bounds because he was professional and courteous and the staff was great. I came to him with concerns post surgery about my left breast having issues with dropping like the right one did. The right breast looks exactly like what I asked for, a natural slope and obvious that I am a mom. The left breast didn’t drop at all (not even with banding myself at night and during the day). The left breast literally looks like it belongs on a 20 year old who’s never touched a baby before. He told me they are beautiful if you put a split screen between them and he’s right. But I asked him if he would be willing to go back in to release it, by lowering the pocket and he said he felt confident he could make them more even, but probably not fix it permanently (because they just can’t be exactly the same - which I understood). I just don’t want to be told how pretty my $6k investment is WHEN/IF I use a split screen. I wouldn’t be as sad if I didn’t have to pay another $2650 to correct it; considering I was already sticker shocked paying $6950 the first go round. Sisters not twins is acceptable, (but these are a full inch apart in height). Flexing makes them look insane and it’s very embarrassing when you’re in the mood and in the moment, when both are pointing north east and south west. I am going to continue saving money and hopefully it will still be quoted at $2650 when I can get back in the fix things. I waited the full six months before telling them I wanted it fixed. Don’t be like me, afraid to say, “you said your rate of $6950 was because I’m getting my moneys worth, so please explain why I must pay more now to get what I thought you were selling me the first time”. I am not angry with the practice or dr bounds, I’m just sad that I’ll be paying almost $10k for mostly even breasts that really only look presentable if you cut me in half vertically. You get it. I’m sure you get it
Dr. Bounds is amazing! I had my breast augmentation a little over a month ago, and it was the best experience. I was nervous leading up to the surgery, but Dr. Bounds and his staff made me feel so comfortable. Going into surgery, I wasn't completely sure what size to go with, so I asked Dr. Bounds to pick the size that would look best on me because I didn't want to go too big and wanted to keep an athletic look (I'm 4'11", 105lbs, athletic build). He ended up going with 280cc silicone, and it looks perfect! I'm so happy with the results. Highly recommend him!
I found Dr. Bounds through my extensive research, as well as many of my friends, recommended him to me. He was 1 of 2 surgeons I had a consultation with for my breast implant surgery. I met with bounds first and when I left his office I knew then that I’d want him to be my surgeon. I cannot stress this enough, the bedside manner he and his team exude is absolutely unmatched. You are not just another patient when you choose dr. Bounds as your surgeon. You become like family. They take the best care of you, you wouldn’t even believe it until you went and saw them yourself. Maulin (spell check, please forgive me) is the sweetest, she has been with me since my first consult. She takes really good care of me alongside bounds. I had my surgery 3/18/20. I had never had any surgeries prior to this so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I am certain that I had the best experience possible on the day of surgery. I felt extremely calm going into his or and I can thank bounds, his staff, and the nurse I had with me as she stood over me while I was going under anesthesia rubbing my head softly and telling me it will be okay. I will never forget that moment. I’m now almost 4 weeks post-op. I have seen him and his staff weekly for my checkups and my post-op results are absolutely stunning. I cannot wait for the future and final results. All in all, you will not be disappointed if you choose bounds and his staff for your procedure. It has been the best decision I’ve ever made. Updated on 2 May 2020: About 5 weeks post op. Not my finished product but wanted to add for reference. :) Updated on 6 May 2020: Love them! My left breast has always been slightly larger than my right even though my right is my dominant side! I think my right breast still has some catching up to do, but that will come with time! Just enjoying this process. :) Updated on 16 May 2020: I couldn’t be more pleased! I want to thank my surgeon over and over and over again. Updated on 20 May 2020: Bought a “real” RA from Target today. Of course I couldn’t try it on before buying so I used my measurements and went with a 32C. Unfortunately, it is too small but that’s okay!! What a lovely problem to have, honestly. Im going to wait a couple more weeks and maybe try again with a smaller band size and larger cup size!! Updated on 28 May 2020: I feel like this is getting repetitive so this might be my last update for a while besides a video coming soon! But I’m very happy with them. I couldn’t have asked for better results. My confidence has sky rocketed and I feel so good in articles of clothing I would have never worn pre surgery. Updated on 15 Jun 2020: Updated on 14 Jul 2020: Still so in love with my results. If you’re thinking about choosing Dr. Bounds as your surgeon, you will not regret it!! Updated on 30 Nov 2020: Been a while since I updated, thought I’d share that I’m still loving my results!! Updated on 20 Nov 2021: Still absolutely obsessed.
I met with several doctors in Virginia Beach, and decided on Dr.Bounds. He is talented, but also humble. He kept my expectations realistic, and maintained a great bedside manner throughout the entire process. Highly recommend!
I have been a patient of Dr. Bounds of over a year now and I've had three procedures so far, when I first met Dr. Bounds and his staff, I had a condition known as Hyperhidrosis which caused me to sweat profusely under my arms, especially in the summer. Dr. Bounds suggested Botox injections. Dr. Bounds and his staff are extremely knowledgeable, they kindly welcomed questions and concerns and by the end of my consultation appointment I felt very comfortable with the treatment he prescribed. On the day of the procedure I was extremely nervous, but Dr. Bounds and his nurses have amazing bedside manner, and despite the slight discomfort during the injections I was sweat free for an entire summer. The next two procedures I had done were reconstruction of my left breast and breast augmentation. Both procedures went extremely well. What I like most about Dr. Bounds and his staff is their honesty and realistic expectations. His skill and valued input of his nurses exceeded my expectations beyond measure. Words alone cannot express my sincere gratitude to Dr. Bounds and his staff. Thank you all for helping me regain my self-confidence. Tonya H.
I would never consider any plastic surgery work from anyone but Dr Bounds! I come from out of state to see him! His compassionate & kind personality equals his professionalism, & his honesty no rushing you approach is comforting. The outcomes are very natural looking & not the Hollywood overly done look. I highly recommend him! You will not be disappointed!
Loved every moment of my experience with Dr. Bounds office. From the first visit to my most recent. I won't say the last because I am sure to stop in when I am in town! I was pleased with the service, the family feel and mostly with the results! Dr. Bounds worked very hard to help me receive the results I wanted with my Breast Aug.
I got a breast augmentation from Dr. Bounds a month ago. The procedure went really well and the recovery was very easy. I couldn't be happier with my results, but I know that my results will only get better as time goes on. The whole staff is amazing and welcoming. They really make you feel like a part of the family.
My experience with Dr. Bounds and his staff was absolutely wonderful! On my very first visit to his office I met the receptionist, Michelle. She greeted me in a way that made me feel right at home from the beginning and after talking with her; I knew I made the right choice. I felt more like a member of their family than a first time patient. The thought of surgery made me nervous, but after talking with Sonya, Brittany and the other staff members, I felt confident and assured that I was in good hands. The surgery went extremely well! Dr. Bounds visited with me immediately after surgery and provided comfort, directions and ensured all of my post-surgery questions were answered. Again, I felt more like family than patient! My recovery was faster than expected, and I have no doubt it was due to the skillful, caring, and experienced hands of Dr. Bounds. My sincerest gratitude and appreciation go out to him and his entire staff for making my breast reduction procedure a completely satisfying experience from beginning to end! He has my highest possible recommendation for any and all plastic surgery procedures! Thanks again for everything Dr. Bounds! Kim - VBCH
Ms. Sweeny's breasts are nicely full and a breast augmentation for you can, in my opinion provide, a similar fullness and proportion. I would recommend you start by having a consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who is performing the procedure well in your area. You can meet with the plastic surgeon to look at before and after photos of their patients, try on sizers to begin to appreciate the potential results. Best of luck.
You are doing so many of the right things in choosing your plastic surgeon. After your consultations, I hope you will have a feeling based on all of the those factors you mentioned, of who would be the best choice for you. This is how most of these decision are made. Sometimes other factors weigh in (cost, distance from your home etc.). There is no perfect way for you to make the final determination, but know you are asking the right questions and doing good research. Good luck!
I vote inframammary. This is the most direct approach and there are advantages. The precision of your sub-muscular pocket (the space that will hold your implant) is much more exactly dissected using the inframammary approach. My colleagues have voiced their opinions regarding the incision (scar) and in most instances the inframammary scar heals well and is difficult to see unless you are specifically looking for it. Choose your board certified plastic surgeon with experience in breast augmentation and let them share their thoughts about the approach they are most comfortable using. Both incisions can work.
Liposuction is the best way to remove fat cells permanently from the area. Experience matters. Schedule a consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who can show you Before and After photos of his or her own patients. Making sure your surgery is performed in an accredited operating room with the use of a board certified anesthesiologist is also important. In this way you can feel confident moving forward with your choice.
Yes, in many cases chin liposuction can be performed under local anesthesia. The field block is not typically painful and once it has set up the surgery can proceed without discomfort. You would do well to consult in person with a board certified plastic surgery with experience in aesthetic surgery.
