CLAIM YOUR PROFILEThanks for the question. There are many downsides to a free nipple graft, loss of sensation would be one of them. I try to make patients proportional to their body with a breast reduction which tends to look nice on most patients. I would recommend a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss this further.
Hope this helps,

Thanks for your question
I tend to use sizers with a bra to help determine what size implant to choose. I also use your body as a guide and take measurements. These measurements then allow us to choose from various different size implants with differing profiles as well. I think working with your surgeon is also critical to your success in achieving your goals.

Thanks for your question. You have done some great research as to the different types of implants as well as the various techniques we do. Shaped implants are a great way to get a natural look but you can also get a very natural look with a round implant. I would encourage you to find a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon whom has experience in both shaped and round devices. This way he or she can help you make the best decision to achieve your goals.

Thank you for your question. Typically having bottoming as shown in your photos is going to require a revision procedure. If you were my patient, I would place an ADM or Strattice along the lower pole to hold the implant in place. I also typically in my patients try to put in a slightly smaller implant placed in order to have less stress or weight on the lower pole of your breast. It looks from your photos that the fold (lower portion of the breast) has been disrupted. By placing the Strattice, this can help correct this deformity. I would agree with talking to your plastic surgeon about your concerns. I am also in Ashland and would be happy to see you for a consultation in person to help address your concerns further.

This is a large implant. I would recommend talking again with your PS about this size. Perhaps even ask to see one and try that on with a bra so you have an idea of what that would feel like to have on your chest. Everyone size, shape, expectations are different of course. I like to use measurements of the patient to help choose a size that will work for their body and that works for them/their lifestyle and what they are looking for. Hope this helps,

Congrats on your new implants. I too like the TX Inspira implants. You are def still early in the post op phase and your implants will drop a bit more and more swelling will go down. I don't usually think about revision surgery for at least 6-9 months for size change as I believe changes are still taking place. Good luck to you,
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
Thanks for the question. Sorry to hear about your capsular contracture (CC). In my patients, I like to use textured implants as I believe there is less CC with this. I also use other techniques like capsulectomy/otomy and possibly even an ADM to decrease the risk of CC. Certainly finding a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and working with one will be helpful to you. Submuscular position also lowers the rate of CC. Good luck to you,
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
The cost is of course variable, but anywhere between $12-15K. I would recommend you choose a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. You can find one by going to ASPS website and searching your area. Hope this helps.

I had two c-sections and had an apron tummy that just wasn’t going to go away. I met with Dr. Herron and she made me feel great about the body that I had, but also assured me that the body I wanted was more than beautiful too. She showed me what probably was me just being judgmental (to which I said take it off anyway!) and also showed me what would make my body contour better. I had also price matched and review matched and she came out on top. Overall I just loved this experience and any work I need done I wouldn’t hesitate to go back.
Dr Herron is very thorough. I always felt safe in her care. My results are very natural. My recovery was very easy and I was able to resume normal activities in no time. I would definitely recommend Dr. Herron and her entire office to anyone looking for a plastic surgeon.
It's been 11 months since my implant exchange and I couldn't be happier with my results! I was looking for a smaller, more natural look but still wanted to have pretty upper fullness. I was in a new place in my life; my high profile implants were no longer a fit for my very active lifestyle.I explained my breast wish to Dr. Herron and with confidence she explained what would be done and what my outcome would be. I knew I was making a great choice by choosing Dr. Herron and her team, but I never expected a medical experience at this level! Dr. Herron made my breast wish come true! The whole Elizabeth Institute Team is amazing! I tell everyone I know about Dr. Herron! I know many others that have also had surgery with Dr. Herron, and we share the same gratitude towards her and are over the moon with our results! I will be back for a couple other procedures (mommies wish list: mini tummy tuck, lipo, labiplasty)
I chose to treat myself to a labiaplasty after years of dealing with discomfort and pain after having 2 vaginal births. I chose Dr. Herron because of her grounded and kind bedside manner, her attention to detail and the knowledge of what we as women care about aesthetically. During the consultation, she listened to me, answered all questions and concerns and I could feel genuinely interested in making sure I got the outcome I wanted. The procedure itself was completely painless and I felt at ease and taken care of the whole time. The healing process was so much better than I could have expected, and I have no more pain and discomfort with exercise, movement and sex! The part I was the MOST excited about is how BEAUTIFUL my labia look now! I knew there would be an aesthetic component, but WOW! I still look like ME, but more youthful and refreshed. I am beyond grateful for Dr. Herron and her beautiful work! I recommend anyone who is considering or has questions to see Dr. Herron for a consult. It was one of the best decisions of my life!
Dr Herron and her team do a great job of providing patient centered care. It’s a wholistic approach with the most recent science based approach to your care! Also, I will always go with an all female team after this experience! Thank you!
I initially had my breast augmentation surgery in December of 2018 and had great results. Four years later, I ended up with capsular contracture in my right breast (no fault of the doctor). Dr. Herron recommended replacing that implant and did the surgery. One year later, it happened again in my left breast. She again replaced the implant during surgery. In all three experiences, Dr. Herron’s care and expertise kept me at ease and I was never worried about any of the procedures because I knew I was in great hands. She had me return for multiple follow-up appointments just to be sure I was healing properly and didn’t have any other issues. She is always kind and professional and truly listens to me! The entire staff at the office is top tier and they always make me feel welcome! I would recommend Dr. Herron for any procedure she performs!
As I age I just knew that getting a breast lift would make a huge difference in my being happy with my body. It certainly took a while to save money ahead of time, and I have no regrets. My breasts are beautiful and I’m so glad to have the procedure done. Margo Herron and every staff member in her office are professional and great at what they do! Going into the surgery I wasn’t nervous or concerned, and certainly with the immediate recovery they prepared me about situations to expect. Margo is very personable and does excellent work
Dr. Herron, her staff, and the doctors and staff at the surgery center were kind, helpful, and comforting throughout the entire experience. And most importantly, thanks to Dr. Herron's expertise, I healed beautifully and couldn't be happier with my results. This is absolutely the best thing I've ever done for myself, and my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner.
I quit exercising as it became endless trouble to struggle into 2 tight sports bras. I am 55 and have lived with a dense heavy DDD on a small frame. Dr. Herron has picked an exceptional, kind, and patient staff that obviously cares about you, answering each concern thru text or visit with no delay. Dr. Herron calmy answered each question and provides a personally written guide to get you thru the journey. My location was 9 Hrs. roundtrip, so she altered her schedule of usual requirements to very few visits. I am SO happy with the results. I am looking at dresses I have dreamed of wearing someday and she has made that true. The procedure was a few days ago and I am healing beautifully due to her precise surgical ability. The Anesthesiologist was reassuring, patiently answering my questions before the operation. Words in print cannot convey the true joy of the results and freedom ahead for me from the Elizabeth Institute. The cost was very low compared to the benefits in the days ahead, free from the weight, shoulder pain, constant adjusting of bras, money spent finding the right bra, exclusion from activities and feeling Normal! Thank you so much Dr Herron and staff, Caroline.
Dr. Herron is absolutely top notch! Very professional, highly skilled and she and her staff do an amazing job of educating before and after surgery both verbally and in print. I knew exactly what to expect and when to expect it and how to prepare. Her craftsmanship is second to none! I have every confidence that you would be very pleased with the outcome of any procedure she may perform because she exceeds high expectations with excellence. I couldn’t be more pleased.
