100 Need I Say More?
I had been searching for the right plastic surgeon in Canada, where I live, for nearly three years. After several consultations, I became discouraged and put my search on hold—until I was introduced to Dr. Koo in St. Louis, Missouri. From our very first conversation, I knew she was the one. Even though I could have had my breast reduction covered for free in Canada, her expertise, warmth, and professionalism made the decision easy. I also trusted her to perform liposuction in
Yesterday I had abdominoplasty, breast lift, and implants done. The closer this date has approached, the more nervous I had become. But, after being underweight most of my life then having gained over 75 lbs with my second child, I decided to do what would make me happy in my skin again. My breasts took a hard hit from my pregnancies as did my stomach. I can't wait to be in a bikini again! Stoked! For those concerned, it is quite uncomfortable particularly getting in and out of
The best doctor I could have asked for
Dr. Koo and her team made me feel comfortable and confident about my procedure. The post-op went by quickly, and six months in I no longer experience the extreme back pain I had before. After meeting Dr. Koo, I never second-guessed my decision to go forward with the surgery, and have never regretted it since. Thank you!
My BA is 2 days away!! I decided to go with 400-450 cc High Profile silicone implants under the muscle with an inframmary incision. I am very excited yet nervous and just hoping I chose the right size to get the fullness without being overboard. I very much trust my PS though. Bring on the nerves!!! Updated on 9 May 2016: So surgery is tomorrow and I have to arrive at 9:15am which isn't a bad time. I've already picked up a few things that I've heard will be helpful for the post-op
Surgery is less than a week away. I've lost around 50 pounds and counting and although my arms got 'smaller' they just deflated... still around 16 inches and they look FUNKY. I've come to terms with the fact that I need this surgery for loose skin and people are going to see my scars. I've weight trained; lifted heavy weights (still do) and know from being a size extra small with extra large arms before(when I had lost 90 pounds as a teen) that not much is gonna change this time

38 with 38G. Saint Louis, MO
Met with PS on June 3, Loved her! She is very honest and open. Wants to take me down to a C cup, which I am fine with, I haven't been that size since my senior year in high school, I'm currently a 38G, however my Left breast spills over the cup so it is closer to a H. I have awful shoulder grooves from my bra straps. I get rashes under my breasts and the pain in my upper back and shoulders is terrible. Hoping my insurance will cover, office assistant said my insurance is known

I Would Not Consider Using Any Other Doctor - Creve Coeur, MO
I have been a patient of Dr. Koo's for years. I was first treated by her several years ago after being referred to her for a breast reduction by my primary care doctor. I was and am still very happy with that surgery. I have sent several coworkers for that procedure and am currently exploring my options for a face lift and eyelid surgery. I would not consider using anyone else.

There Are Truly No Cons to This Procedure - Lemay, MO
I was always interested in a breast augmentation due to my small size and frame. I could not be happier with my decision! I have been able to get back to my normal life very quickly with very little pain or discomfort. There truly are no cons to this procedure in my opinion! I am thrilled with the results and would urge anyone who is interested to follow thru with it. It is one of the best decisions I have every made.

Happy with the Outcome - Mehlville, MO
Not at all interested in a facelift, Dr. KOO said she would not recommend that anyway. I thought I would come in here and she would immediately want to operate on my eyes and face. I knew my eyes needed to be done but my chin I did not want to do. Dr. KOO said we could improve my skin and do some filler and Botox injections with my eyes and that would make a big difference. I was shocked! My son looked at me and could put his finger on it but said I looked great. I honestly did

A Great Doctor - Creve Coeur, MO
I did the lift and the tummy tuck. Feeling old and saggy and frumpy. My insides felt great but I felt defeated, deflated and a little depressed. I really only felt depressed when I would try on clothes to go out and everything felt loose and I had to tuck my abdomen skin in my pants. Once that skin was gone I knew I had done the best thing ever.
