Had my Breast Augmentation in november. I had a natural b sometimes c depending in bra but after breastfeeding my breasts just looked sad. I had chickened out on the operating table once when i was 21. The clinic did not even refund me all my money they kept 3000 out of 8000 which is prety steep for a darn consultation. So this time i wanted to make sure i went through with it. Went to dr patterson in hamilton. A lot of reviews ive read say hes got a terrible attitude but i didnt find that at all. His wife is who helped me pick out sizes. I wanted to be a large d to dd and thats what i got. I possibly could even be an e in victoria secret bras. I wanted them to be big but not look super fake and thats exactly what i got. I do kinda wish i had still gone a tad bigger but im only 120 pounds so any bigger they probably would look fake. I got allergan natrelle inspira cohesive gel implants 450cc. I would have liked to go 500 to 550 but he said the 450s were pretty tight so not sure i could have gone any bigger. I had considered the tear drop implants but did not like the risk of rotating. Because if that happens its not covered and i do not want to keep putting more and more money into them. 9000 was paid in cash on my pre op. The surgery im not going to lie was very very painful for me for a good month. First few weeks were hell. If i knew it hurt that bad i might not have done it but its kinda like childbirth. You swear youd never go through that again but after time passes you say you could do it again. My implants are under the muscle. Some d bras are too small so have to buy a dd bras but its hard to find my size around my body in dd. Couldnt be happier my implants dont really even look fake.
I had my surgery today and I couldn't be happier! All of the staff as Hamilton Plastic Surgery are kind and very caring. This was my first ever surgery so everyone took the time to make sure I was calm and answered any and all questions I had in order to ease my worries. Dr. Patterson did an amazing job. I'm so happy i was referred to his office. I've wanted this procedure done for the last 5 years and I am happy to say that I have finally achieved my goal with the help from the amazing Robert Patterson and his incredible staff!
I love this place Dr. Patterson is awesome he did a fabulous job I am beyond thrilled ! The staff is warm and friendly and go out of their way to treat like your the only patient in the world. Diana the nurse is smart friendly encouraging and extremely helpful. Everyone was just as excited about my surgery as I was and the day of surgery I was even nervous not for a second which speaks volumes !!!
Dr. Patterson and his staff were amazing. I found the staff extremely helpful and very caring. Dr. Patterson did an amazing job with my breast reduction and I am 150% satisfied with the results. He is professional and thorough. I needed him to do his job not be my friend. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing plastic surgery. I just got fitted with new bras and the saleslady said "Wow you had a great surgeon" Thank you Dr. Patterson and your staff for making this difficult decision the best choice I could have made.
I went to Dr. Patterson to have my breasts reaugmented when I was really unhappy with the results of my first breast augmentation I received from a burlington doctor. From the first appointment i knew my experience would be good this time around. Dr. Patterson was honest and realistic and after going through an experience where the results left me unhappy it was nice to see that. All of the staff in the office were wonderful and very helpful and it really added to the great experience I had. I understand every patient has different results but I find these bad reviews flabbergasting. His bed side manner was good and he is a very polite and professional doctor. Not all doctors are going to have a bubbly and upbeat personality and that should definitely not be a requirement. I've learned Throughout my experiences that sometimes plastic surgery can be an emotional roller coaster and that time for healing and listening to doctors orders are a must for a desired outcome. I would highly recommend Dr. Patterson for your plastic surgery needs not only for his high skill level but for the wonderful overall experience. A million thank you's to Dr. Patterson and the rest of the staff at The Hamilton Plastic Surgery Centre!!! :)
Over the moon with the work and the service!! Some people complain Dr. Patterson's "customer service" is not that great. A) he's a surgeon not a customer service representative and B) his staff more then makes up for it. I didn't have any issues with any staff, including Dr. Patterson. I needed more medication, they faxed a prescription in for me to save the trip into the office. I got an infection due to a fever (which I got from a flu not from surgery) and they follwed up not just once but 3 times. I wouldn't go to any other doctor and I would and do reccomend him every chance I get!!! My confidence has improved 100% as well as my everydat attitude and even my marriage. Thank you Dr. Patterson!!!!
I am Alice, I had been fitting to get breast reduction forever but only my new family doctor actually took my request seriously and I got the referral, I never new it was going to be so fast but in less then six months I was going for it, Dr. Patterson and the team did a great job, I can finally go out and shop for bras without a problem, I don't need to buy the same old white or beige, so happy when I went out and purchased my first sexy bra, (hot pink) my shoulders were a big problem with the weight of my breast ever since the surgery I have had no problems, and yes I did not go from triple or double D to to B because of my body shape and weight but I am extremely happy and completely satisfied, no complains at all, I also had a very young female doctor consult with me just before the surgery, she was very polite and very calming, made me feel good to know I had her and Dr, Patterson to do my procedure, I would not change a thing, I still have a long road ahead of me but if I had to I would go to this great team and do it again, thank you to the whole team from Lacey to the young female doctor, all the staff and to Dr. Patterson.
So after decades of lugging aroung unwanted massive breasts, I scraped together the courage to consult my overly blunt family doctor for a referral to a plastic surgeon to get the breast reduction process started. The referral was faxed to at least two surgeons in my area and Dr. Patterson's office was the only one who responded, almost immediately. Then the process bega.. Some of his more negative online reviews made me nervous, but having worked with both patients and doctors before, I was fully aware that there are always, always two sides to a story. Dr. Patterson seemed objective, kind, sympathetic , soft spoken and articulate. His staff was understanding and helpful. I found the pre-op package was thorough and honest regarding patient expectations, outcomes etc. Operation day went smoothly, I broke out in hives and tried my best to remain.calm. and think clearly. I recall an assessment right before the surgery where I was made to stand naked while Patterson and a younger female doctor assessed ways to proceed. I recall the female doc exclaiming things like "her left shoulder is higher!" And other gems that would probably have devastated me under normal circumstances but I had taken Xanax and didn't really give a crap. Additionally as a medical person i understood time constraints and the need for objectivity. Dr. Patterson remained kind and professional throughout which helped me. Besides the pain, that was the only negative experience I had, excluding a few minor emotional freakouts in the week after the reduction, until I got used to the routine of healing. Regarding the operation itself, the small perky b cups i wanted were not in the cards for me with my current body weight and amount of breast tissue, etc. I am now a d cup which is a huge improvement contrasted with the large and uncomfortable e,f,g whatever cup I was then (different methods of measurement lead to multiple measurements, headaches) Seven months later my boobs are shaped beautifully and the scar tissue is slowly fading. From the side they are nearly perfect. They are not perfect little b cups like i had imagined but they never were, they are smaller, the back pain and shoulder pain is gone and I am no longer hiding behind tops that resemble pup-tents. I have doc Patterson to thank for that and I would recommend him to anyone for the breast reduction procedure.
Definitely worth it! Hard surgery to recover from but the results are amazing. Dr. Patterson took my baby roll away, tightened my tummy and made my breasts look natural and fabulous. Don't hesitate to get this done, my confidence and self esteem have gone through the roof. I wore at bikini in Mexico!
pros - i am happy with my body again cons - they weren't exactly what i had in mind but a lot better then what i had so can't complain I had a breast augmentation because i had a child and until then i had perfect b cup perky breasts and then after breast feeding was done it was like someone poked them with a pin and everything fell to the bottom they were lifeless on topi have 1 child(6yrs now) and i got the implants after she was born after my breasts were already deformed i am now wondering now that i am pregnant again if they will deform ontop like that again being that the implant is already in there wouldn't that stop them from doing the same thing this time around or no
