We did a mini face lift, procedure in his office, it was one and a half hours and I went back to work right after I finished. His work wiped at a minimum 10 to 15 years off my appearance, I am SO happy! WISH I had gone a couple of years ago, I could not believe the price for his level of experience, expertise and the result! IT was so good I went to the store the next day.
I lost over 100 pounds about 8 years ago, and had a tummy tuck done then. However, the surgeon in Hawaii that did it, basically just did a mini, eventhough he told me it was a full and charged me 8000 dollars!! Last Friday I had surgery a full tummy tuck with muscle tightening and Breast Aug, 660cc implants. As I already had a DD cup, but my breasts were flat and deflated. It's been 3 days since I had surgery, and the results are already impressive. Dr. Brown is extremely skilled, accommodating, and very easy to talk to. He is interested in his patients well being, not using pictures to lure/advertise, instead he relies on word of mouth. I did my phone/email consultation on Monday, and had surgery friday!!! I am very impressed, as is my husband with Dr. Brown and his staff, They are personable professionals, and you can certainly see Dr. Brown's 30 years of plastic surgery experience every step of the way!! Thank you Dr. Brown!! Updated on 9 Aug 2013: Updated on 9 Aug 2013: First few nights were horrible and painful, no pain pump. My doctor took of 2 lbs. of skin from my tt, and I still feel like I am droopy/saggy... What are your thoughts?? I just might be to critical!! I love my breasts, I was a natural 36DD, and had 670 cc saline implants, which filled out my post pregnancy breasts... Took me to a 36I cup!! Lol My fiance is thrilled. lol Everyday gets better, and I was standing up straight within a few days. Let me know what your opinions of my belly are, and if I am overly worried!
This website has been a Godsend. I first stumbled upon it while pondering my decision to have the much needed procedure done. But after reading all the reviews and advice my fears were still there but few. April15,2013- was my surgery Dat I had to be there by 6am. I met with the PS he marked my areas and then I was off to the OR to meet with the rest of the team. I must say that the 1day post-op wasn't as bad as I thought. I did have pain but a pain pump was administered so it kept me comfortable. April 20, 2013 Day 6 days PO I'm still pretty much swollen the the most annoying thing Is my drains. I'm praying they are.removed at my post op visit on Wednesday. I do have 1 questions it normal after a few days to have a yellow coming through your drainage tubes instead of blood.
The first time went so well, I'm hoping for this to be the same. Couldn't ask for anything more. I am hoping by going up a size to achieve more roundness and lift! Excited,but terrified as always to be undergoing surgery. Last time I also had a tummy tuck after kids stretch:). So, I won't have that to recover from! Pics if I can figure that out. Updated on 26 Apr 2015: My Father in-law passed away this morning. I need my surgery before May 5 my surgeon operates on Tuesday and I don't know if it's availab for the 4th. Funeral not until earliest Fri. WOULD I be ok by Fri.? Updated on 27 Apr 2015: Very nervous have given myself a terrible case of IBS flare up sleeping near toilet. Ugh. Funeral Monday. Ready to be over this???? Updated on 28 Apr 2015: Went in at 9AM they took me back helped me undress and "gown it up"" nice hair cap. Into surgery. I have impossible veins, Dr. Brown rejected the left went to the right tapped rubbed, voila hit the vein first try. I was not put out so much that it took maybe 20 minutes when finished explanting and inserting new for me to get up and dressed. Which I think, has made for me feeling so good. The right one had a pinprick hole leaking along the crease, typical place from what I gather. This came out so easily. The left which was still full he just sucked it out. Then he put the new ones in each side checked me out, stitched me up and BONUS removed a tag mole that was hiding under my right breast????. The staff is so kind never make you feel like a nuisance with all of the questions. Had literally 1 hour today where I took the pain meds but I still really hurt on the outsides called and he said cold compresses. Did that and have not been in much pain since. Implants -Mentor smooth round moderate profile. 575 cc saline under muscle. Should now be a D. Trying to get pictures to this device from phone. If I do then i will post. Hope all went great for others operated on today and for all the future peeps ???????? Updated on 29 Apr 2015: My breasts woke up about 6PM last night and were like " What the h..." Happened to us? Seriously, the pain came so fast I couldn't wrap my head around it. The outsides of both, but especially the left. The one that hadn't deflated. It is mad. Hey I hung in here for 10 years, did I cause problems? No. How do you repay me? Yank me out and throw me away!? REALLY, well guess what, I have friends and they're going in your chest! ENJOY!! On top of this the NORCO I've taken for anything I have ever had done decided to join the party and make me nauseated. Good Times. Bright side Dr. Called my breasts are great no redness swelling fever leaking stitches etc. eat more with meds. Take ibuprofen more and NORCO less. Cold compresses, and I will see him in the morning at 10:30. So, that's the plan. Hope all is well with everyone else in realself world???? Updated on 29 Apr 2015: I am day after so day 2? And I believe I can get some pics posted. Technology evades me at times???? Updated on 29 Apr 2015: Yes I'm in my closet. The ink line below my breasts means my bra is not to go above this. Special 99.9%silver infused bra to promote healing. Actually I am a jewelry designer and I thought Silver Bra? cool!! Updated on 30 Apr 2015: Saw the Dr today and he said everything looked good and should even out. He doesn't have patients do massage. They're not the round breasts everyone seems to have. It's either me or my Doctor that has made them look elongated is the only word I can think of. I know it's early and the right is riding high and pinched at the top. Still in quite a bit of pain only under my armpits on the outer sides. We shall see. Updated on 2 May 2015: Post op day 4 they look long and hangie to me. I really wanted round. Still have pain and very little bruising. This bra is not comfortable for a week. Worse thing is the depression. I don't think they'll round out. Updated on 7 May 2015: Had my stitches removed and was told all is as expected at day 9. I can quit wearing that post op bra???????? and pretty much resume activity. Implant exchange definitely has different rules and body reactions. The deflated breadt is high and tight the other is dropped and soft????go figure. He said I don't have bra off cleavage because of my build and I didn't want a lift so they're obviously not perky as they were when 39, but hey that's life. Hope all other Real sellers the very best. We rock!! Updated on 7 May 2015: Side views Updated on 11 Feb 2017: My breasts haven't changed since my last surgery. I want front and center high and round. I have implants , but am hoping a lift would give me what I've always wanted. Cleavage and no droop or under the armpits. Is this possible?
