Hello beautiful ladies :) I would like to share my breast reduction experience. I have read a lot about breast reduction testimonials on real self, which helped me to decide to finally go for it. The biggest cup size I’ve ever worn was 32J from Change lingerie. I also have their H and I cup bras depending on the style of the bra. I had my surgery yesterday morning and it went very well. I love my surgeon Dr. Perry. She is so sweet. All the staff were so caring. I asked for the B cup and told her that I never want to wear bras again only bralettes. She told me not to worry, she understands what I want. In the surgery room everyone was so kind and calm. They told me to imagine myself on the beach in bikini. I fell a sleep and woke up what seemed seconds later. My left breast was bigger. You could see it in the sports bra shot. I got 340 grams removed from the right and 414 grams from the left. My meds are Gravol, Tylenol, Hydromorphone, antibiotics and stool softener. I am also wearing compression socks. At home I am using ice packs now on and off every 10 minutes. The ice packs and surgical bra were provided by the clinic. My breasts feel great, but I am having some pain on my right side under my armpit. I also had a liposuction on my armpit pouches. Maybe the pain is caused by liposuction. I am all bandaged up but I can see how much smaller my breasts are already. I have been dreaming about smaller breasts for so long. So happy my dream came true. That’s all for now. I will keep you posted. Wish me an easy recovery and don’t hesitate to ask me any questions. Updated on 29 Aug 2023: My one week appointment went great. A nurse removed my bandages and took some pictures. She is amazing. She gave me a second surgical bra so I can use them interchangeably. She also answered a lot of my questions. My left breast looks bigger. Hope they will even out when swelling goes down. I am also worried about the scar under my breasts. They look scary. I know scars change. Fingers crossed everything will heal wonderfully.
DR.Perry is AMAZING, she is super kind, caring she definitely wants her clients to be happy and confident. I gained a lot of weight in my 20s and 30s which unfortunately led to a lot of loose skin in my inner thighs when I lost the weight which made me so sad I could hardly look at myself in the mirror :(. I went to Dr. Perry and she changed my life because now I stare at my legs with confidence and pride for all the hard work I put in. She started with Morpheus 8 and then a mini thigh lift. I just want everyone to know what an amazing Doctor she. Thank you so much for helping me to start loving my body once again, you truly made a difference in my life. I recommend this clinic 100%.
AMAZING RESULTS!!! I got an abdominal liposuction surgery done September 4, 2020. The results are astonishing. I used to have large love handles, lower back fat and a pouch of under and upper belly fat, that was very annoying to say the least. No amount of exercises and diets could treat that ugly tummy. For the first time in my life I can finally see my V frame.Although, it may need a bit more waiting to see the final results (I have a few swells in the afternoons).* I am planning to get back to the gym to maximize the potential.Here are pictures in the morning. Side view and back view. Updated on 5 Dec 2020: Another picture morning take (front view), as time goes the swellings are going away slowly. In the morning the results are the best. There are a few correction to do, but the overall results are amazing compared to my old self. * My old self was ugly as hell (large love handles, pot belly and flat fat back). Updated on 5 Dec 2020: This is my old self before the liposuction procedure, I was quite ugly. *I took my picture in the shadows (by shame) I know it's a stupid pic, but I was ashamed of myself, so I decided to take it in the dark. I couldn't stand to see that uber ugly tummy. Updated on 5 Dec 2020: These are the pictures of the aftermath of my liposuction procedure. We get bruises and swellings like if we got into a fight !!! *This is 1 week after the procedure, so we can expect lots of swellings. Luckily, I didn't need any pain medications. Updated on 8 Dec 2020: Now, it is time to push the potential to a gym, I use to do powerlifting, than I loss a lot of muscle mass after stopping training hard for 2 years (I use to be much more bigger and stronger than that), the belly fat that I used to carry around my waist for all these years was killing my overall looks. The only thing, I regret so much was not knowing that surgery could do miracles when I was younger. Luckily, the surgery was done in the nick of time (age 38). *Here, I weight 218Lbs with a slim waist, much better.
I checked a lot of reviews before my BA, and most were for under the muscle. I decided to write this review so that more people can consider an over the muscle implant. I am very athletic: rock-climbing, cycling and running. Dr Perry suggests an over the muscle implant for most of her patients if there is enough breast tissue. The recovery period is shorter and recent research confirms there are no more risks of capsulite with over the muscle than under the muscle. Apparently the look is just as natural or even more, because the implant won't move everytime I will contract my chest muscles, which happens alot everyday (just to open a door for instance).
I'm currently 3 days post-op and the pain is tolerable, but I can't sit yet. Everything is pretty swollen down there. The pain was stronger than I expected on the first day (even with the pain medication AND Tylenol, I cried part of the night). The actual surgery (local anesthesia) went well. I drove home by myself right after. However, I regret not doing a second consultation with her before the actual surgery date (we spoke about labiaplasty during the initial consultation that was about another treatment). I was bothered by some excess labia tissue, but didn't like the "tucked in" (or Barbie) look so I probably wanted something different from the "standard" look that women usually ask for... Dr. Gdalevitch seemed to have understood my wish so I went with her plan, trusting her experience. Fast forward to the surgery date: I didn't like the result I saw in the mirror right after the surgery (before the swelling) so I'm crossing my fingers that there is still enough labia left! As long as everything heals in the end without complication, I'll be satisfied with the experience. I'd do differently in the future though! Updated on 2 Sep 2019: The pain/itching was sooo much better after the stitches were off (I "helped" them a little around 2 weeks). I could finally walk and sit. The scars are getting softer too. Still not sure of what to expect as a result, but I'm sure everything will be fine. I had some concerns about a "burn" in the area (that was because of humidity) and Dr Gdalevitch answered my questions super fast via email, even at night or during the weekend! Unfortunately, I am still in pain, but for another reason: I probably have a Bartholin's cyst. It may or may not be related to the surgery, but I wanted to say it since it might happen to you. I didn't know what that was until she told me about it. Again, Dr. Gdalevitch is definitely a great doctor. I had "doubts" in my first comment because of the pain and being scared of ME having made a mistake about this surgery, but it had nothing to do with her own professionalism. She's not leaving me alone in this, even if the cyst might not be related to the surgery at all. I'll update pictures soon.

I didn't hit puberty until I was about 14. My boobs (I hate the word breast) got EXTREMELY large in a span of about, 10 months. I went from a 34B to a 34G. About a year later, in the middle of grade 10 I hit a 34I. Having big boobs in high school SUCKS. Guys stared you down, even some of my male teachers were super creepy. And P.E. was the worst hour and fifteen minutes of my life. I also play hockey and field hockey, which was really difficult with a big chest. Whenever I complained about it, whether it was about a creepy guy staring at my chest, or my shoulders hurting, my flatter chested friends would say things like, "You're soooo lucky!" Or "I would kill for your boobs!!" Some of my closer friends felt for me though. I think it was about 5 months ago I was at the newly opened Victoria Secret with my friends and they were trying on cute bikinis and bras and I had to sit and watch because I couldn't fit into any tops there. When I for home, I was in tears and my mom suggested I see a plastic surgeon about getting a reduction. Anyways, in September, I met with Dr Gdalevitch and she was super caring and nice about it. She measured me and said I was in no question an excellent candidate for a reduction. My surgery was booked for December 13th. I was super lucky to have it so quick, but also very nervous. The day of surgery came, and of course I was extremely scared because I'm really squeamish, but also very excited. All in all, the surgery was very smooth and easy, I went in at 8, and was home at 1. About a week later, I'm doing great!! Dr Gdalevitch did a great job with the stitches and my boobs are small and perky and average sized!!! If you are considering this surgery, its 10/10 recommended. In the first 2 days after, my back and shoulder pain were relieved! I tried on a bunch of old shirts that wouldn't fit before and I look slim and I feel confident and young. This surgery has seriously changed my life. The only thing I'm not looking forward to is going back to school and hearing comments from people. My surgery was also covered.
I had a breast surgery here and was not satisfied with the result. Everything came out wrong. I told her how I envisioned them and they don't look how I imagined at all. What's worse, she is not helpful and kind. The doctor does not make you feel confident and confortable.
Horrible! Absolutely unprofessional and unfriendly individual who performed a botched surgery that did not comply with the contract or her promises. She also left me with horrible scars, even after I paid for a revision, which ended up being worse than before! In short, as a word of advice between women: Avoid this surgeon at all costs!
The office manager, Anissa, was so INCEDIBLY RUDE that they lost over $11,000 in business from me. Treating customers in such a way is just unacceptable for a business that's going to be operating on your face. She couldn't answer simple question or return a call without being condecending, rude, or sceaming at me. I wouldn't do business with a plastic surgeon whose office operates with this lack of ethics or customer care.
