Dr. Bruce has been wonderful! I have beautiful results with my breast implant removal with lift, his provider rating should be 10 stars! I was pleasantly surprised with the results! The employees at ILUME are super nice and so helpful!
Dr. Bruce was in charge of my “mommy makeover” and without exaggeration, it was the best decision I made. He supported all my choices, made suggestions based on his experience and took great care of me throughout the entire process, from the consultation to surgery, and post surgical care. I am very pleased with the results. Everything looks and feels exactly how it was supposed to be. He was always very honest about my expectations and did the best job. The day of the surgery everything went smoothly. The operating team was great, they made me feel very comfortable and supported. Thank you, Dr. Bruce and your team (Kelcie and Julie) for being such an amazing provider. Your skills are beyond appreciated.
Dr. Bruce gave me amazing results with my breast augmentation. I told him exactly what I wanted, and he delivered. I am one year out from surgery, and I would recommend Dr. Bruce to any of my friends. He also has a great bedside manner, and made me feel comfortable every step of the way.
46 yo mom of two and substantial (60-70 lb) weight loss after years of weight fluctuations. Because I had been a chubby teen, I never wore the bikinis or cute clothes, and after getting in the best shape of my life, decided I earned the body I should have had. I met with Dr. Bruce for a consult and immediately knew he’d be my surgeon. Only recommended what I needed, GREAT bedside manner- hilarious, and very up on the latest research. I’m currently 3 months post op from drainless tummy tuck with muscle repair and could not be happier, both with my results, and with the aftercare from Dr. Bruce and the staff at Illume. I’ve had 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, and 3 month visits, and I’ve seen the surgeon each time. I will have a 6 month and a 1 year visit, and will be discharged after that as long as everything looks good. This is all included in what I thought was a very reasonable price. And any time I’ve had a question between visits, I’ve been able to email pics to the nurse, and she gets me answers right away. I’m so pleased with my experience, and would recommend Dr. Bruce and Illume to anyone looking for a similar surgery.
In my opinion, I like to use a patient's anatomic sizing, personal desires, and wish photos to pick implants together. Spending this time with your surgeon helps everyone get on the same page regarding goals and desires. I counsel patients to not worry TOO much about relatively small differences in implant volume (around 50cc) as this difference can be very subtle once all healing is complete.
