Merry on Jun 19th, 2015 My experience with Dr. Gordon was amazing. He is knowledgeable, kind, patient and took his time with me throughout the complete process. I am extremely happy with my new breasts thanks to Dr. Gordon :) He removed my saline implants that I had put in around 15 years ago in Hawaii....which I was never really satisfied with the outcome. My new inplants are amazing and feel very natural,.....just like gummy bears. Thank you, Dr. Gordon, for your expertise in making this experience amazing!!!!!!
14 years ago, I received saline breast implants from Dr. Gordan. I was extremely happy with them Then one sprung a leak. I didn't even think twice about returning to Dr. G to remedy the problem. We met and put a plan in place; chose silicon and couldn't be happier with the results! Great dr; so kind!
I've always been happy with my butt but the last couple years I just felt like I couldn't get the excess weight off and I wanted to look like I did when I was 21 I guess an early mid life crisis. I choose dr. Gordon because I felt like he understood the look I was going after and I'm glad I did. From the start him and Lori the office coordinator have been great and have gone above and beyond to make me feel comfortable.
I just had my surgery a week ago but do far I love my results. I had Lipo to my abs, flanks, inner & out thighs & had it injected into my butt. I had cancer and lost a lot of muscle mass, most of which being my butt. I hate my flat butt and love handles. So far everything looks great. The pain is minimal. The worst part is not being able to door for 2 weeks. My back is sore from lying down all the time, but I know it will be worth it. Dr.Gordon is awesome! He takes time with you, answers all your questions and even met me on Saturday to remove my drains. Lori is also great. She makes you feel comfortable and takes her time with you. The surgical staff was also very good. I would highly recommend him. I will post pics in a few weeks.
I had been all over Vegas and couldn't find one doctor that I felt comfortable with until coming to Dr. Gordon's office. The procedure was fast, the recovery was quick and the results exceeded my expectations. I couldn't be happier, even a year later, I'm more pleased every day both with how they look as well as feel. Couldn't be more thankful for such and easy and rewarding process.
I went to see Dr. Stephen W. Gordon after visiting his website (drstephengordon.com) , I had already seen a Dr. in Miami for the same procedure , I have had breast implants in the past and after my consult with the dr. I instantly knew he was the experienced dr I felt would give me the results i seeked. I didnt feel that when I had my consult for liposculpture in Miami , I decided to see Dr. Stephen Gordon and after his patient , experienced opinion throughout the consultation I instantly knew I wanted him to perform my surgery. My procedure lasted almost 5 hours , two weeks before the surgery date the dr. placed me on homeopathic vitamins to help minimize my swelling and ensure a speedy recover after surgery. when my surgery date arrived I was the last surgery scheduled for the day, hours flew by, before I knew it I was being drawn on and we were having very detailed discussion of exactly what I expected, even pointing out flaws I hadnt noticed that he would fix. The before photos were snapped, and at the time I thought they were for an album but when I stepped foot in the surgery room I realized they were hung near by, Once in the surgery room I was sponged all over by the assistants, and laid down face up, i dropped quite tears as the anesthelogists walked me through what i would feel next (very relaxed) and the assistants told me everything would be ok. Before I knew it I was dosing off to a very deep sleep (awesome feeling by the way ) , when I awoke I was face down (because after the liposuction the fat was transferred into my buttocks) , my mother was my caregiver and she had flown to Las Vegas just to care for me during recovery. When Dr. Gordon allowed her to see me , she fainted , he was so caring and catering to her that when I awoke she was laying in a recovery bed across from me ! LOL Well his staff was so kind, my Dr. and one of his nurses drove us both home because my mom was in no condition to drive. My Dr walked with me upstairs to my front door, assisted me in laying down , attention that you wouldnt believe! I had read online that he had made house visit to other patients but yet I was still surprised when he dropped by the next day! My mom had stopped fainting by now (she fainted a total of 3 times within 48 hours because she was so shocked at my swelling and bruising which I had been warned about before surgery). I was extremely swollen and bruised in areas, the pain wasn't unbearable, the pain killers gave me relief for 4 hours at a time, I had to sleep face down or on my side inorder to not put pressure on my newly sculpted butt. First 2 weeks were tough, at 8 weeks I was completely healed. I did not carry around those little balls that drain blood, instead I had a small drain that leaked onto gauze I would change every few hours, First 2 days i drained the most after that it was just drops. a week later the drains were out. 5 days after surgery I was walking around the condo. Every day the swelling subsided more and more, at first I was terrified that my butt was too big but just like he said everything was fine once the swelling was gone! My stomach never developed any bumps or uneveness like I had read online prior to my surgery from other patients that had their procedure done with other dr's , My waist shrunk so much, I am thrilled with my choice in dr. His staff is amazing and so helpful! Body Contouring was the name of the procedure. I had fat sucked out of my lower back, flanks, tummy, inner and outter thighs and put into my butt, I have nothing negative to say, Best Decision Ever! Thank You so much Dr!!!! It's everything I hoped it would be! Updated on 23 May 2013: MY LIFE CHANGING PROCEDURE I was terribly unhappy with my troubled areas such as my saddle bags & my tummy that wouldnt flatten. I tried hiring a trainer 3 days a week and attending a high intesity cardio class 2 days a week to no satisfying result. I had a consultation with a Dr. in Miami & the Dr. seemed to rush through my consult & rush me through my questions as well. I have had breast enhancment in then past and when I met the Dr. who performed my surgery I just knew he was then one I needed to trust in, the same emotion I felt when I had my consult with Dr. Stephen Gordon years later . I came across Dr. Stephen gordon's website after searching through surgeouns on google. His 25 years experience and good reviews on his website interested me so much that I just had to schedule a consult! During my consult I was so happy that I had found the correct Dr. for my desired results! He took his time answering my questions and offered solutions to all my concerns..He seems so knoledgeful and patient throughout the consult. Soon thereafter I met one of his assistants Lory, she was so flexible with my financing needs, she went the extra miles to offer different options on how to find and fund my surgery. She helped make my surgery a reality! Two weeks before the surgery the Dr. gave me a kit of homeopathic vitamins to begin taking to help reduce swelling and bruising after my surgery. The morning of surgery finally arriived, the staff was so calming, minutes before my surgery the dr. was drawing what he referred to as his map on me ... drawing what he needed to see to sculpt me to a extremely happy patient that I am today! Shortly after that I was taking my before photos, minute later my IV was put in. The entire staff was great even the anesthesiologist, he was keeping me calm until i was fast asleep. I awoke with no pain, felt a bit week. My mother who had been awaiting in the waiting room fainted at the sight of me, the dr determined that was no condition for her to drive me home and had his assistant and himself drive us home and help me comfortably into my bed. I was amazed to find him making a house visit to follow up with how I was feeling! The attention to detail was overwhelming. He was in daily communication to find out about my progress during the recovery process. I couldnt have picked a better dr.! Months later I went for my after photos & WOW what a difference ! Ofcourse i had seen my own photos before but seeing them on huis high defenition proffessional photos was an Amazing and stunning sight! I tell everyone who compliments me about how i achieved this body. I haven such a tiny waist now, a flat tummy, thin thighs round sculpted buttocks! I couldnt be happier! Body countouring is only as good as the dr you choose! be sure to choose the right doctor! Dr. Stephen Gordon Sincerily; a satisifed patient with life changing and lasting results!
It's been one week since my surgery ,my butt is big but I do not think I will be happy when swelling goes down . The doctor said he was only able to harvest 500cc per side I wanted a 1000cc I'm 5/5 145 I don't think there will be a big difference . My goal was big Kim K big ! So we will wait and see! I will check in next week with more photos and a update.

Updated on 4 Dec 2013: Updated on 2 Jan 2014: Well ladies its been rough healing , very sore very swollen its hard to work and I can't work out yet . I'm on my feet for 9 hr serving cocktails so maybe that's the problem.. I'm loving my results.
I had Rhinoplasty about 10 years ago. After a few months the Dr did a revision, looked a little better than before. Everyday since then I hate looking in the mirror. Money wasted and now I'm in search of a doctor than can fix my nose.
I always had an issue with my larger stomach. I have an apple body and just gained weight in my stomach and always had very small hips and butt. I lost alot of wieght to compensate for this, to the point where it became un healthy. My first year in college i gained it all back and just could not handle it. I decided to have lipo suction and it was the worst mistake in my life, it ruined my relationship with my long time boyfirend. A year after the procedure I kept trying to tell myself it was better than it has been, but I just can't lie to myself anymore. At times it makes me not want to live anymore, please think twice before lipo. I just want it fixed but I have no idea how. Please please, if you have any ideas to help me do!
Where to start. I got my implants put in under the muscle as soon as I turned 18. Ever since I was 15 I always wanted implants. For 3 years I was always online researching breast augmentation and always being envious of woman with large breasts and self conscious of my small boobies. I thought implants looked better than real breasts! Wow how that has changed. My doctor did a truly wonderful job. I believe I got the best possible outcome. They look and feel real. I loved my implants for the past 4 years. I always said it was the best thing I ever did for myself. Ha!! The past year I have become very health conscious and have gained so much self love and awareness. For my mind, body and soul. I started thinking about getting the removed and found this site and it inspired me even more to get these things removed! I am going to the same doctor who put them in since he did great the first time. He was very pleased with the results of the augmentation and was surprised I wanted them removed but he was understanding and supportive of my decision because he could see I did my research and made up my mind. We are doing it under local with twilight anesthia to cut the costs for me. The office is an accredited surgery center so that is where it will be done. He will be taking out the capsule if necessary. He said if anything he might only need to take out the bottom of the capsule. I am excited and nervous! I have been looking at cute little tops and can't wait to be able to fit into them. It was a mistake getting breast implants at such a young age. But I accept it and take it as a learning experience. :) so excited to have my natural boobies! But also nervous!! Thanks for sharing all of your stories!! Updated on 8 Sep 2014: As the day gets closer I am getting more and more nervous. My hope is that it's not too much of a shock. My doctor claims that it won't be and that I have a good amount of breast tissue. They have definitely grown since my initial implant surgery. Before my implants I was a small b. I am now a 34dd in VS bras. I keep looking back at old pictures of my pre implant breasts and I like the way they look. I have faith that they will look even better than before. ;) Updated on 8 Sep 2014: Posting more pictures for more reassurance for myself. :) Updated on 8 Sep 2014: Updated on 15 Sep 2014: My surgery is one day away!! I am soooooo excited!:) I am a little worries about going back to work. I am a server and hostess at a restauraut and am scheduled to go back to work on 4th day after surgery. I am also very much so a naturalist and am into holistic healing so I will be refraining from taking the prescribed meds. Hope the pain isn't anything like when I got the implants. Any thoughts on both topics would be greatly appreciated. I am so excited to be my natural self again!! Will be updating ASAP after surgery on Wednesday morning. :) Updated on 17 Sep 2014: I am on the other side and could not be happier! Everything went very smoothly. The anesthesiologist started me with a "champagne cocktail" haha to calm me. I was very relaxed even before that but it did make me feel very nice. Next thing I know I'm waking up! I received light twilight sedation along with local anesthesia. When my doc came to check on me he said everything went very smoothly and that I look great already. My capsules were almost non existent so no capsule work was necessary. The right implant was stuck to the capsule so he did have to do minor capsule work on that side. I am flat as a board and I absolutely love it!!! My doc prefers not to compress the breast tissue by wrapping it because he believes the breast tissue should heal in it's natural form to prevent any deformities. I have tiny little drains inserted that I can't even see because they are under the gauze where my incision site is. They will be removed tomorrow at my post op appointment. I am so grateful for this experience. I appreciate my small boobies so much! Without undergoing the initial augmentation surgery I may have never loved and appreciated my small boobies so much. I am so happy!!! I will continue to update my progress. At the moment I don't feel much pain I'm guessing due to the local injection. I am opting not to take any pain meds so we will see how the pain is once the local wears off! Thank you for all the love and support! Updated on 18 Sep 2014: I am feeling wonderful!! I was feeling sore last night when I used my chest muscles for even the smallest things but when I was staying still it wasn't bad at all. The incisions feel a tad sore but nothing unbearable. Still have not taken any pain medication and feel fine. For me it's not necessary at all! I am headed to my post op appointment. Will update after! Updated on 18 Sep 2014: Updated on 19 Sep 2014: Day two post-op and feeling really good. I had tiny little drains In the incision that my doctor removed yesterday at my post op appointment. I didn't have much drainage. I'm in little to no pain just slightly where the incision is. Especially when I'm up and moving around a lot. Taking it easy again today. Will be laying in bed and relaxing all day again. :) My doctor prescribed me an antibiotic cream to put on incisions but I made my own natural holistic ointment made up of a little coconut oil, avocado oil, tea tree and lavender essential oils. Updated on 20 Sep 2014: I'm day 3 post-op and I can definitely say I've felt a roller coaster of emotions. I have noticed the psychological effects of this surgery. Most emotions so far have been positive but I've so has brief moments of feeling self conscious and sad. But then I remind myself of what An amazing miracle my body is and that my breasts are beautiful the way they are. My skin is pretty loose and breasts sad looking when lying down. I am hoping that they tighten up. Still 100% satisfied with my decision to explant but of course there is always a duality. After all I am a human! Ha. I also started my period today so I am definitely feeling the hormonal effects of that. I tend to get very emotional and more self conscious on my period. Still happy! Updated on 22 Sep 2014: Hi all! I am on day 5 of post op and am feeling really good. I went back to work yesterday I am a hostess and server at a restaurant. After work today my chest was really hurting and I felt weak. I am on my feet in heels for 6 hours and didn't get the chance to eat so that had something to do with it. Other than that am feeling greAt! Thanks again for all the comments! Updated on 22 Sep 2014: I decided not to take anything the doctor prescribed me. No antibiotics, no pain meds, and none of the antibiotic cream for my scars. I am very into holistic healing and have opted to try alternative methods. :) Updated on 24 Sep 2014: Hey ladies! 7th day post op and feeling wonderful! I feel so healthy, vibrant, and happy! I want to share this oil with you that I found called Healthy Girls breast oil. Pictured below! :) Updated on 29 Sep 2014: Hello everyone! I am almost two weeks post op and feel soooooo wonderful!! This past weekend I attended a music festival. It was here in Las Vegas and could not resist as that is something I love to do. I am a hula hoop dancer and knew I should take it easy over the weekend but couldn't help myself. I was dancing my booty off all weekend. I was feeling slightly sore from it but other than that I feel great! I hope I can start doing yoga again within another couple weeks. Sending my love to all of you! Updated on 12 Oct 2014: I am just shy of 1 month post op and I am so incredibly happy with my descion to explant. I adore my small, soft, warm, natural breasts. I am so happy that I made this descion now before any possible problems occurred. I feel even more self confident. :) if any of you out there are even thinking about explanting I highly suggest you just do it! Your body will thank you. Having natural breast just FEELS so much better in more way than one. Much love ladies and best wishes to all of you! Updated on 21 Jan 2015: Hello everyone! I am 4 months post op and still so very happy with my descion to explant. Yes my skin is loose in some spots, yes I have a few stretch marks and no they aren't "perfect" but to me they are perfectly imperfect. Having my natural body just feels..... well, natural! Haha. Which feels wonderful. Best wishes to all of you! All in all this has been a profound learning experience for me. I have gained more awareness, appreciation, and love for my body. If any of you have any personal questions please feel free to shoot me a message or comment. Much love!!! Updated on 12 Apr 2015: Hi beauties. :) I am 7 months post op and am still very happy with my descion. My breasts have tightened up a lot and I think they also shrunk up a little bit. Here's some photos for some ladies who asked. I use organic Shea butter currently on my boobies and scars. Also use some essential oils that are good for stretch marks and tightening skin. Best wishes to all of you on your journey. Updated on 12 Apr 2015: Updated on 26 Jan 2016: Here is an updated photo 14 months post op. I am so happy with my descion and not one single part of me regrets my descion. I love feeling and looking natural! If it's something you are contemplating I say DO IT!
congratulations on re claiming your body! You look great! Sounds like you want a cup size increase full perky natural looking breasts. Off hand I'm thinking teardrop implant, and breast lift. I would have to measure you to be sure. Best wishes.Â
Breast shaped implants are superior to round for the very reason you mentioned: natural shape! I always tell patients "if you are trying to make a breast bigger it makes sense to use a breast shaped thing to do it with. you wouldn't use a ball to make a box bigger!" The only con associated with shaped devices compared to round is that the surgeon MUST be experienced and the patient must be able to appreciate more natural appearance for slightly higher cost.Â
you absolutely have the right to privacy its called HIPPA rights. A letter from your plastic surgeon does  tend to give it away and if he does a good job your improved appearance will give you away. Get your plastic surgeon to answer the questions and then ask your primary care doc to submit from HIS office to maintain privacy. your doc may charges a fee for the service but its worth it...
in theory subglandular placement is best for the reasons you mentioned and because the female breast is located on top of the pectoral muscle. Your pics suggest that you have adequate breast tissue to accommodate a 375cc or smaller silicone implant in subglandular position.  Surgeon must evaluate your tissue thickness and dimensions of breast and implant to determine best fit. Best wishes.Â
Your best bet is to go see your family Dr and ask his advice and treatment. Most local plastic surgeons are going to be reluctant to offer advice on a stranger's  work (a Dr. They don't know) other than to go back and see your surgeon. If you had kept your business local the surgeons would likely know each other and collectively be more inclined to help you more directly.Â
