Dr. Weil would be my choice for any and all cosmetic procedures. I had a BA and love the results. Healed fast and felt and look great. Staff is helpful, knowledgeable and kind. Nurse and anesthesiologist rock! Great experiences with Dr. Weil.
I lost 50lbs and was left with loose skin on my tummy. I went to another doctor, and he didn't even examine me but immediately decided I wasn't a candidate for the surgery. He told me I should lose more weight first or wouldn't be satisfied. Instead I went to see Dr. Weil he performed the procedure and my results are outstanding nearly three years later and I even lost another 40lbs.
I wanted to have the "pre baby" breasts back and went to Dr Weil after being personally referred by a friend with a wonderful breast augmentation done by him. Dr Weil has a wonderful bedside manner, is knowledgeable and a considerably kind man.I received excellent results and I am 100% satisfied. I would have work done by him again. His staff of RNs, anesthetists, and office managers are excellent.
I am 24 years old 5'5" and at pre op i was a 34A, post op 397 sillicone mods. I had little breast tissue to begin with but decided to get implants. It was only November when i decided and not more than 3 months had gone by before i decided to have them removed. I thought i would be happy and that weird feeling of something wrong would pass, i just didnt feel like myself. Staring in the mirror i was just not myself i had these perky, perfect breasts, something i always wanted (or thought) and i hated myself. I took the next step called my PS and it was set! Under local anestesia i had them removed within 45 min they were gone! I have never been so happy and excited to see my small little cute boobs again. I cant get the money back but it was well worth the lesson. I had been stretched pretty bad but only a couple close to unnoticeable stretch marks. I had my old crease scars removed and am waiting to see my PS to take off the small bandages. No need for stich removal all dissolvable. My PS is wonderful and i would recommend him to anybody, very gentle and understanding! I am happy and blessed that this was a mistake i could change
I'm a 30 yr old mother of 2, 4 & 2 yr old beautiful & smart children. I was 116 lbs before I got pregnant with my 1st one, and I gained 50 lbs with my 1st. That was not easy to lose at all and part of it I guess was because I didn't really try very hard. But just when I began to lose weight again, I got pregnant with my 2nd one! I only gained 14 lbs with the 2nd pregnancy, but that plus all the left over from the 1st pregnancy, it was almost impossible. I guess there could have been more hope into it if I had started working out & dieting shortly after my 2nd one, but regular workout just didn't quite fit in the new lifestyle of a toddler & a baby. On top of that, I work 2 night shift jobs, so physically I was not up to exercising because I always have to catch with my sleep. And the stress just made the whole dieting messed up to. But like what they always say: there's an end to everything. The kids are bigger, so it's a little easier now. Beginning Feb 2010, I started going to consultations for a mommy makeover, and really, deciding that I wanted something like this for me added a motivation into dieting better & working out more regularly. I breastfed both my kids, so that didn't leave me anything physically good, although I know they got what was best for them, and I'm really happy that I was able to give that to them. My stomach was of course not the same. Stretch marks, fatty, and weak. My lower back hurts when I try to do crunches. I guess because my abdominal muscles have really weakened a lot over the last years. I am 5'1, initially 160 lbs but now down to 146 lbs. It's a week before my mommy makeover surgery and I'm nervous but really excited at the same time. Nervous because I've never had any sugery in my life & excited because I'll finally get my old tummy back, you know before the pregnancy, or maybe even better and I'm finally gonna get bigger boobs. Boobs I've never had because I've always been an A cup. So I'm gonna get silicone breast implants, a tummy tuck, and a lipo of the inner thighs, since this have been a problem to me ever since. I wanted this so much that I wanted it to be my 31st birthday gift to myself. I'm really greatful for my super supportive husband, that although this have brought us some financial challenge, he still suported me in any way possible. Pics to follow. Updated on 13 Jun 2010: Hello everyone! It's nice to be able to update my post now rather than just commenting on it. I would post my pics tomorrow when I get home because I'm @ work right now. Yes, work! I am now 5 1/2 weeks post op and tonight is my 2nd night back to work. I feel tired because I'm working 3 nights in a row and I just came back. So on top of getting my body back to working I'm also dealing with the stress of working nights. Time is a big change since I have been sleeping like normal while I was off work. But now I have switch my days and nights again. I'm still on partial restrictions, meaning I can't be doing too much lifting more than 20 lbs until beginning of July. I still have to wear my abdominal binder even when working since it gives me support therefore allowing to move faster with less discomfort. So far people at work are making good comments and have been very interested to know about my whole experience. As far as my body, the breasts are healing now. There was a small opening in the inner side of my right breast incision, which was irritated before. I don't think it was infected but it was getting close to getting there, so my PS prescribed another course of antibiotics. I haven't been good at taking it every 6 hrs; instead I'm doing every 8 hrs. I know, bad me. ;ut it's better now: dry and closed already but still has some redness around the area. I graduated from the velcro for the breasts @ 4 1/2 wks because the implants have pretty much done the dropping they are suppose to do. They don't feel so tensed anymore, but the nipples are still hypersensitive and the skin around them and the whole breasts are really itchy. I try not to scratch them, of course. I'm still doing the massage that I was told to do twice a day. Then the tummy tuck incision is healing well too. The tiny opening on the right end of the incision has closed. The lttle openings on the left end of the incision have closed now too. The skin around them is drying and scabbing a lot now. This area is still more swollen than the right, but not so bad. The middle part of my stomach down to the mons pubis is still swollen. I can still see the little hump in this area, but it's getting smaller everyday. My PS said that the swelling could up 6 mons to subside. The whole abdomen is still numb of course, but that's no surprise. My abdominal binder is not my most favorite, but it is beneficial to me, so I can't say I hate it. I am able to keep it off a little bit more longer now too, but I move slower without it still. I also feel this heat that travels through the incision whenever I get up from lying or sitting position, espcially when the binder is off. My PS said it's normal. As far as the scars, well, some areas are finer than others. I've started putting the Mederma cream @ 5 wks but only to where the incisions are really closed. The small openings I've mentioned I just leave alone for now. My PS recommends Rejuveness silicone sheets instead. I've looked and men, they are expensive. I'll get them though, just not right now. And just really quickly, the lipo of the inner thighs have not changed much from what I've mentioned at 3 wks. There still that small bulge, esp on the right, but I think it will take some time to come down. Maybe it will get better faster once I start working out again. Speaking of working out, he said 2 more weeks. So @ 7 wks I should be okay to go back to working out again. I'll have to start over again though: build it up slowly in cardio and weights. I can't wait. I really would like to get my stamina back again. Updated on 26 Jun 2010: I added my pictures finally. The incisions are healing well. There are times when they are really itchy & a little swollen, but I keep putting the Mederma cream on. I also noticed that when I use my abdominal binder, the tummy tuck incision really flattens and I can't feel any bump. The breast incisions are always flat and the little areas that had small openings for a while are healing well too. I noticed that the right areola is a little lower than the left, but it's pretty decent. I also apply the Mederma cream on the belly button and breasts incisions.
Not a day goes by that I don't think of Dr. Weil. I went in my mid twenties for liposuction on my abs and side flanks. I was very active and thin. I'm still a size 8 and active. I was just genetically built to carry more weight in my stomach area. Boy was he and the whole office so lovely when I went for an evaluation. I thought all medical visits should be so lovely. Day of surgery he was very late and took no pictures. The anesthesia was rushed and I was awake but couldn't breath before I finally knocked out. Scared the crap out of me. After surgery I had to go in for a section to be drained in the office. I wore the garment, did everything as told. I healed with a shelf across my belly where that drainage had happened. I went in to have him review it and he told me to lose five pounds and pushed me on my way. I was too young to know to stick up for myself. So, all these years I've gotten to look at my side view shelf through clothing and cringe that my man is staring up at it while we make love. The texture of my stomach was ruined too. I'm almost 50 now, never had kids and barely have any cellulite on my legs but my stomach texture has been a disaster since that surgery. My flanks aren't even either. Anyways, I chose to move past the experience and love myself, shelf and all. I went on to perform and dance in my free time and was often embarrassed by photos capturing the deformation. At the end of the day I brought it on myself and I wasn't going to not live life because it. I'd pick someone else and really think long and hard before getting liposuction.
Usually the breast reduction does change the areola size. The size of the areolas are classically approximately 40-42 millimeters in diameter. Often prior to a breast reduction the areolas are 50- 60 millimeters in diameter and therefore with the surgery comes not only with the reduction of the breast tissue but also of the areola. A discussion with the surgeon will be required to determine if there is anything that can be done.
The possibility of achieving of the look of full soft looking breasts would be to have implants that fit your body and that would not be overly large. Also if you have enough breast tissue such that the implants are behind a breast which has significant amount of tissue, then the breasts should maintain their softness. Then again the best plan is to pick implants which would not be too large for your frame.
Usually in order for the breast to be higher with the same implants, some type of a lifting procedure is required in order to decrease the amount of skin there is on the breast. This type of procedure does entail additional incisions and therefore a woman may just want to have larger implants.
Most likely the adrenal fatigue may be aggravated only for a short period of time during your recovery, but most likely would not cause a decision to not operate. There would probably be correspondence with your physician who is handling the adrenal fatigue and possibly additional steroids would be utilized at the time of surgery.
An implant 35 CCs smaller will probably cause a noticeable difference although it will probably not be very significant. Usually the pocket does not need to be corrected going from a larger to a smaller implant that is only 35 CCs different.
