Breast Aug 4/11/18
I had to kids and breast fed which resulted in saggy deflated a cup breasts. I went to Dr. Bartell in Madison, WI for a fuller natural tear drop look. Nothing too big, just enough CCs to fill out what I had. I had my surgery yesterday and it went well. I got 375 CCs moderate profile implant, it seems big now but I think it’s due to the swelling and me not being used to big boobs. I’m having moderate/manageable pain right now and I can’t wait for it to subside. Can’t wait to see
Wonderful doc
Professionalism exceeded my expectations. Procedure was breast aug, and he was very informative about all facets of surgery prior to-expectations on pain, recovery, procedure and outcome. Made me feel super comfortable. The result is natural looking just like I wanted. Definitely would recommend.

Breast Enlargement Dreams Come True - Madison, WI
I had decided to have a breast augmentation. I researched the surgeons in Madison. I am very happy I did. I did check previous reviews, but the quality of Dr. Bartell's work on his website is what made me decide to check him out. Boy, am I glad I did. I do not understand where the negativity is coming from about his office staff. I had multiple consults with different surgeon in Madison, and she was by far the best!! I enjoyed my consultation with Dr. Bartell, he was professional,
Ive always from being a teen, wanted bigger breasts but more importantly my one completely inverted and other semi inverted nipple corrected. I started my research on the best doctors in Madison and I ended up finding Dr. Thomas Martel's because he is the only one that seems to have good results on sub muscular and no scar. I was not impressed by one of the receptionist she was quite rude. When she was talking price to me its like she was not taking me seriously because of my

43, Mom of Three, Wanted: Flat Tummy!!
I'm 5'1" and weigh 125 lbs. I had a c section with my 2nd child. After giving birth to all three of my kids I was able to return to my pre baby weight with not too much work and my stomach was flat again. However, over the past 5-6 years I have slowly gained 8 lbs that would not go away. In addition, a pocket of fat began to develop right above my c section scar. This area was different than a pooch, it was literally a pocket. That's the way it felt to me. I also began to notice

45yo Mom Who Got After Breast Feeding for 3 Yrs - Madison, WI
At 45 I am in best shape of my life, triathlete, yoga teacher... But my breasts were aging and shrinking. Just wanted to enjoy them again. I went w saline under muscle after extreme amount of research. Any cancer risk was too much. I liked the photos of his after surgery, all looked very natural. Wanted to keep my athletic shape and seemed to understand. Biggest concern is not being able to exercise for recovery. I don't want to mess up his work, but I need it for my sanity! Updated
I've talked about getting mommy makeover since my first was born almost 11 years ago. I didn't want to do both surgeries at once though so decided on an extended tummy tuck with lipo first and a breast lift later this year. I want the tummy gone more :) I've never been stick skinny but was a healthy 5'6 140 before kids and a size 6. After 4 kids no matter how much I work out the gut just doesn't go away and my body seems to think 165-175 is the weight it likes. Time to change

33yr Old Mother of Two - Madison, WI
I had my surgery yesterday, it was successful! I'm sore and tight but meds are keeping pain in control. I got 500cc underarm saline behind the muscle. Today sore but able to move around. Little bleeding under left arm I think I been moving too much. Been icing my breast and I have little pain. Iluvit Updated on 27 Jun 2014: Feeling better got to take a bath no more bleeding. Still sore and swollen but Tylenol extra strength has been great to me, not so much pain today Updated
This was not something I had put much, if any, thought into until this past January. I was born with good genes and have always been comfortable and confident person with my own body. I have a logical view that there are all different body types out there. I can appreciate that we as woman, come in a verity of shapes and sizes. Just as I admire women with qualities that may differ from my own I also realize others may admire mine. I have been grateful and pleased with being

Dr. Bartell Works Wonders - Madison, WI
I had very botched breast implants that were 10 yrs old from a previous doctor. Bottoming out, falling to the side, uneven, just an ugly mess. Dr. Bartell fixed them and they are amazing now! I still kept the original implants which saved me money. Not very fond of one of the receptionists, who was pretty rude and acted like she was above every one else though.
