Had a breast augmentation over 15 years ago. Now it's time to get a new set. I currently have 325 ml HP silicon under the muscle. I'm 5'2" and 120 lbs. My goals are: - perky and round look and feel - UHP Implants - breasts should come closer together - no breast lift I'm currently searching for a doctor. At the current state I don't know how big the implants have to be to reach my goals. Help is welcome....thx ;) The pictures are the current situation. Well keep you updated. Updated on 15 Jul 2020: Finally had my Revision, after the Covid Lockdown. The surgery was on Monday, at the momeent everything looks ok. Some Pain and swelling. We decided to use B-Lite 510cc High Profile Implants. Also a Mini Lift (areola) was necessary. I'm very happy about it... Updated on 15 Jul 2020: Some more swelling and bruises, but less pain. The Compression Bra is very tight. They gave me 80D normally i am a 70x or 75x... The new implants already look very nice under cloth with the Compression Bra. The Doctor gave me a LIPOELASTIC PI Special Comfort, it looks very good. Updated on 16 Jul 2020: Had my first shower today, since the revision. I was so desperate to get one. The big problem was the pressure, on the breasts, after opening the compression bh and moving without it. So i just wanted a quick shower and back in the compression bh. Updated on 17 Jul 2020: Today I feel way better. But still have even more bruises. Most of the swelling is on the outsides of the breasts. The most pressure on the inside. I also could move my shoulders way more back today. At the moment I m very happy with the current result. I hope it stays good like that. Updated on 20 Jul 2020: Short update. I m feeling better from day to day. The bruises and swelling is getting better. But I still feel very tight in the breasts especially in the cleavage area. No pain anymore only the tight pressure... Updated on 21 Jul 2020: Already one week passed. Today this tight feeling is better. The pressure is less and no pain at all. Also the bruises are starting to fade. I started making some small walks again. The biggest problem for me atm is that i can only lie on my back, its making me crazy. One more week then I m allowed to lie on my side... :) Updated on 28 Jul 2020: Today I passed the 2 week mark. So it was finally time to remove the patches. I was very stressed before. I was very afraid that something goes wrong. But luckily everything went fine. The tight feeling is still there but it gets better every day, but only in baby steps. Moving around is also much easier now. In 2 weeks I will give you an update, with some clothing ;) Updated on 9 Aug 2020: Tomorrow I will pass the 4 week mark. I m feeling way better now. So it was time to try some clothes for the first time. :) I like the new look very much, at first I thought my new breasts dont fit in the old cloth, but it fits very good, for my point of few... :) Updated on 11 Aug 2020: Another quick update. The pictures are 4 weeks post op. The scars are getting better, also the tightness is nearly away. Only from time to time i still feel this tightness. Im so glad that I have no complications at this point... Its very hot in my country at the moment its not so comfortable to wear the compression bra all the time. In one month i will give you another update. Updated on 15 Aug 2020: Please help me. I m wondering, at the moment, how my breasts look for an average person in Europe or the US. So my question is, how fake do they look for you and what do you think an average person would think? My goal was an augmented / fake look, what I said clearly to the surgeon. Do you think I reached my goal? I personally don t feel too big at the moment... Also a grading from 0 natural look to 10 super fake would be nice. Updated on 17 Aug 2020: Today was old bra sorting day. It was like expected, I had to sort out nearly all my old bras. Only a few with, with no support, more a cover, could stay. All my Sports bras are gone now...it s time to get some new ones... ;) Updated on 20 Aug 2020: It s unbelievable, already 6 weeks passed. I m feeling very good at the moment, yesterday I went into the pool for the first time since. The last days of this years summer are here, so it was time to cool down a little. ;) I think this red bikini looks very nice on me. It just needs some more adjustments. :) Updated on 20 Sep 2020: The pictures are already around 4 weeks old. Today I decided to post them anyway. It was the first time I went outside with a Bikini only. We had a good time at the swimming pool. I was still too afraid to go into the swimming pool. It was also a little bit tricky to hide the scars from the sun. A few days later I went into the pool but it was a strange feeling...I still wear the compression bra nearly 24/7... Updated on 20 Sep 2020: Its already a while since my revision. Today I had the motivation for some new pictures for an quick update. The pictures are not the best, the room lights made some strange shadows... I ordered some new dresses and bras. When they arrive i will give a more detailed update ;) Thx for all the comments you made. Do you think that they are too big for my frame or just right? I think the are perfect ;) Updated on 11 Oct 2020: Today I will post some more bikini pictures, around 2 Month post revision, and some before pictures (on request). It was quite hard to find the old pictures. What I found: - A picture before my 1 Breast Augmentation - One directly after the first OP - In addition one lets say in the time between ;) - Finally one the day before my revision I m still very happy with my revision. Will post a 3 month update very soon ;) Updated on 12 Nov 2020: Times passes, its now already 4 month since the surgery. Had no time to post some updates but now I made it. At the moment everything is fine, no complications at the moment. I uploaded some new pics and videos. I think with a normal shirt the don't look to obvious. The breasts are still quite firm, but I like that. You can see this in the jumping video. ;) I also like the round look from the first picture.... If you have some questions just ask...

But its ok... ;) Updated on 13 Mar 2021: Here is another update. Uploaded some more videos and pictures. Also some pictures of new Bikinis. This time a more closer look. One of those videos shows a short squeeze test. Hope you like it..... ;) Updated on 5 May 2021: Hey thought about posting a collage of my journey. So here we are. Made two collages in total. One of the front and one of the side. The pictures are not the best, but should be ok for now. It’s crazy I always think my boobs could be bigger, but the collages show that I already gained a lot... strange... Updated on 2 Jun 2021: Here is another update.

How long can u be swollen for haha!? Feels like forever *rolling eyes*
Unsatisfied with results after rhinoplasty with dr. Kufa (procedure done over one year ago). Firstly, the consultation (where he arrived late) lasted maybe 5 minutes, but I had thought the doctor had a good understanding of what I want. I showed him photos from his portfolio that suited my needs, and also some other noses I liked. He told me it was not very complicated and his plan seemed to correspond with my needs (remove hump and slim down the nasal tip). I wanted a natural result. I should have noticed the red flags to not undergo the procedure, even though my deposit was paid. The whole surgery took so little time I realised right after they just botch you and go to another patient for a quick money grab. The nose hump was succesfully removed, but the nose bridge was not slimmed down. It doesn’t look how I wanted, but it also doesn’t look bad. But the nose tip is horrible. It became even wider than before the procedure - it's bulbous, uneven and has a strange, undefined shape. It started drooping almost right away after taking the cast off and I'm already scared how it will look in a few months or years. It's not lifted at all, instead it's long and drags my face down. Right now I'm researching other doctors for revision, because I can't trust this clinic again. They offered me a revision at a largely discounted price (only the hospitalisation costs, I suppose) but I'm scared it will only get worse.
My rhinoplasty with Dr Kufa left me with valving and a nasal drip - resulting in a 12,000 pound repair job with a London specialist, my specialist believes judging by the low skilled workmanship he just bashed me with a hammer and put on a cast - job done) Cheap surgery is cheap results lesson learnt - if I had gone to a reputable surgeon who took time to consult and care for me I would have saved so much heartache and money. Being in Prague made it a scary experience you don't want to be that far from home having such serious procedures.
I have made two big mistakes in my life, the first is a primary rhinoplasty and the second is a revision rhinoplasty, both performed by Roman Kufa at Perfect Clinic. When first contacting Perfect Clinic by email, I was informed by the secretary, that Roman Kufa performs several rhinoplasty operations each month and he has various qualifications viewable online. On the Perfect Clinic website, there are also before and after photos, and even some videos. Roman Kufa looked confident and it all seemed very trustworthy. Perfect Clinic’s lower prices also had a strong influence over my choice of clinic, I was a student and wasn't keen on my family knowing about the operation, so I could not afford a more expensive UK clinic. Dr.Kufa has been practicing for many years but its very difficult to find credible reviews on him as a surgeon online. There was (until now) not one bad or even mediocre review about Dr.Kufa online. The few online reviews that do exist seem overwhelming supportive of his work as a surgeon but don't share any photos or personal information which I find this suspicious. On the day of my first surgery I had my consultation with Dr. Kufa, it can't have lasted more than 5 minutes, he sat on a chair behind his desk, he seemed quite apathetic, and disinterested, he told me that my nose was "too long". He sketched out what my nose on a piece of scrap paper. I explained that it looked different from different angles because of the deviation and wanted this fixed. I told him that I didn't want a huge change, that I still wanted to look like myself, masculine, that I really did not want it to look like I have had surgery but preferably a natural result. He appeared to be listening. Nothing really was explained to me regarding the procedure. He didn't tell me what he would do or where incisions would be, he didn't discuss postoperative care, he insisted that the result would be “good” and that I had “nothing to worry about”. Before the operation the nerves of general anesthesia dominated my mind rather than surgical results and I was very naive to think that it could not go wrong. The surgery itself was fine and the aftercare from the nurses was fine. I traveled back home two days later. After 10 days I took off my cast and I will never forget how shocked I was to see my nose in the mirror. It was still very swollen, so the overall shape of the tip was difficult to tell, but it was clear that the dorsum was reduced far too much, the nose was a very curved, scooped profile, a very shapeless form and my face looked very bare, like something was missing. It was simply a very stupid thing to do to a guy and looked very unnatural, it was stripped of cartilage and bone, a lot had been removed, completely unnecessary to remove so much material. Instead of focusing on deviation, Dr. Kufa decided gave me a transformation, this decision must have been made when I was under General Anesthesia because it definitely was not made during the consultation. When the swelling went down is got even smaller, quite upturned, a feminine nose. I felt like it was changed for the sake of novelty rather than what looked right. It was Ignorant to the fact that I was male and therefore should have a straighter profile, ignorant to the fact I was European, ignorant to absolutely everything I had said in the consultation. Despite being very disappointed, I was patient for the swelling to go down. The result was awful but I waited until the end of the year before I contacted Dr.Kufa again. I emailed him explaining everything, with some photos. I was forgiving. Initially he told me that he could use injection fillers to even out the bridge. I told him that I wanted the nose fixed properly, surgically. He told me that he would perform a revision free of charge, and that this was no problem at all. Although the first rhinoplasty result was very poor and clearly no care or thought went into the result, even the best surgeons make mistakes sometimes, so I foolishly agreed to let him perform a revision. I emailed him, strongly emphasizing the fact that the bridge was too low and that was the major problem rather than the fairly bulbous tip. After all the tip was only prominent because so much material had been removed from around it. So the objective of the surgery was mainly to build the bridge of the nose to a more suitable height. This was realistic, the only constraint being that I wanted it straighter, no fussy details, and no unrealistic aesthetic demands. I told him he could take cartilage from my ear or ribs if he needed to. I was very easy going considering the circumstances. He told me this was “simple” to correct and that it would “look good”. Naturally this time I was much more cautious and did ask to see some before and after photos of patients that he had increased the height of the bridge of the nose but I was REFUSED, I asked for some form of simple computer simulation to have a better mutual visual understanding of the expected outcome and I was REFUSED. I asked for a translator because I thought that perhaps Dr.Kufa did not understand some of my English terms, I was granted this, but they later it was REFUSED. I refused to re operate unless a translator was present, so in the end a translator was provided for the consultation. Simple demands which I would say are a standard procedure were denied but at the same time I felt like I had to get it fixed. During the second consultation I found it insulting that the first thing Dr.Kufa told me when he seen my nose was that “this is not a bad result” insinuating that all this bad result was part of my imagination. He clearly has no eye for aesthetics because it was clear that it was a bad result and more importantly, not what I wanted at all. Is this not my decision at the end of the day? I had sent Photoshopped images of how I would like the result but again I didn't really have any say. Dr.Kufa had decided to focus his attention on the tip of the nose despite the main reason for a revision was to address the low bridge. He decided to take more cartilage from the tip and place this over the dorsum. Again, somehow he managed to persuade me to go ahead with the operation. The actual revision operation went fine, I traveled back home and it healed very quickly this time. For about a week the result was very good, the nose was straight, much more full in appearance, I was really impressed actually at how masculine it looked, I even got compliments on how “handsome” instead of “cute” I looked which helped me verify that this was not just my imagination and that I was correct. I was even about to contact him thanking him for fixing the problem so effectively, but the good result was only because of the swelling. As time passed, the mistakes became more prominent as the swelling went down. Basically the height of the dorsum remained the same, very low, the tip had been more damaged, it was reduced much more, the sides missing from it, it was a round awkward crude shape and very BULBOUS, worse than ever before. I emailed Dr. Kufa after a few weeks and was told in a one sentence email that the cartilage must have re-absorbed. Cartilage grafts can re absorb but science tells me that this occurs by a few % over the course of a few years, surely not after one month. So basically instead of an additive process, this operation was another reduction procedure where even more material was taken away from the nose. I got no answers about why the bridge wasn't raised and why the tip was changed like this, he just never responds if he doesn't want to answer the question. Roman Kufa (who has recently become an “officially appointed expert in the field of plastic surgery” according to the Perfect Clinic website) who after two completely botched operations now decides that I’m just being a difficult client. He first tells me it looks fine and there's no need to re operate. Then he replies short single sentence emails with spelling mistakes. He decides the best/quickest solution now is to inject Metacrill, a non-FDA approved filler, to fill the large areas now missing from my nose. I told him that I don't trust him at all and that I’m not injecting non-FDA approved materials into my body. He then tells me another option is to use a Medpor implant to build the bridge and that this is yet another “simple operation”, but when I ask if he has he even done this procedure before, he tells me only a handful of times. Dr. Kufa acts like everything is so simple, and only after the operations, do you realise that maybe its not so simple after all. So thanks for the offer but I’m not letting Roman Kufa near my face ever again! The procedures you offer me might be “free” but now an operation with a consultant surgeon is more complicated because of the previous operations, and therefore more expensive. I’m going to be saving for years and probably going to have to take out a loan to get this fixed. Rhinoplasty is a difficult surgery, fair enough, but I know I’m not unreasonable, I can forgive a mistake, or a minor flaw, but not this. And if a mistake does happen, twice, at least show some empathy. I don't think that this result is purely because of poor surgical technique, I think a major reason my results have been poor is because vital things such as a proper consultation and proper postoperative care have been largely sacrificed in order to cut costs and lure more cost conscious clients, to make more money. I can only assume that a clinic offering competitive prices prioritizes quantity of patients over quality of results. The Perfect Clinic website makes deceptive claims, I originally chose Perfect Clinic because of some of these promises, but these I later found out for the most part are untrue, “The superb quality represents above all, the approach to patients and their needs (NOT TRUE). Highly qualified staffs, above standard surgical acts(NOT TRUE), unique quality of postoperative care (UNIQUE BECAUSE THERE IS NONE?), communication skills (NOT TRUE) and security are the basic principles provided.” “Each operation at the Perfect Clinic Plastic Surgery Centre is preceded by an expert consultation (WHICH LASTS ABOUT 5 MINUTES!). Each patient is given detailed information on the process of the operation (I WAS TOLD THE RHINOPLASTY WOULD BE OPEN AND IT ENDED UP BEING CLOSED, BOTH TIMES?!), post-op and recovery routine including the potential secondary affections (THIS IS A PRINTOUT ON PAPER!).” This isn't just two bad surgical results, this is bad practice. Under similar circumstances, I think that another surgeon would have dealt with this differently, and Roman Kufa fell short of this standard. Plastic surgery should never be a factory conveyor belt with standardized results. People deserve better than this. If you are considering surgery please choose a surgeon, one who will treat you with respect and has time to listen to you and most of all wants to help you. Ask to see before and after photos and research as much as possible. Remember this is your BODY, don't cut corners and choose a cheaper clinic because you will get a lower quality result, and you will regret it for the rest of your life. I've already been threatened with Roman Kufa’s lawyer about posting online reviews, I think that's the wrong approach. Online reviews are today fact of life for all businesses, including plastic surgeons. Learn from this review and create a system to deal with FAILURES. Freedom speech is my human right and I am entitled to my own opinion and to share my experience, as long as its fact, and I am 100% truthful in my review. Hopefully my mistakes will help other people.
