Breast Augmentation

I Had an Amazing Experience with Dr. Zimmerman

I had a Breast Augmentation with Dr. Z in November 2023 and I couldn’t be happier with them. I previously had a botched breast lift/reduction with a different surgeon who took off way more of my natural breast, then he was supposed to and killed my nipple. I was traumatized for a long time and when I finally went to Dr. Z. I immediately booked my surgery because he made me feel comfortable. He did not rush me. He explained everything to me, in some cases more than once. He took his time, he took measurements and let me know how big of an implant I could get based how much space I had available. On the day of surgery everything went well, I got home with my nice big boobies and it hurt like heck. We were able to contact his office and get a call back from him on Thanksgiving with more instructions for pain. It was a polar opposite experience to the last surgery I had with the other PS. Dr. Z is SUCH a good guy, he’s nice, he cares, he’ll make you laugh too. I’m so happy to have found him through 2 different personal referrals. I’m VERY HAPPY WITH MY RESULTS.

Highly recommend - couldn't be happier with the outcome

I highly recommend the Zimmerman Center!!! Not just is he amazing at what he does, but the entire staff are so sweet and helpful they didn't treat me like just another patient but like someone they knew. Dr Zimmerman himself is very very good at what he does. He has a great personality and is extremely knowledgeable. I never felt pressured like some of the other doctors that I had consults with. He's very informative we went over all my options I told him what I wanted and that's what he did and I couldn't be happier without come. I told him I was going to end up going to jail for indecent exposure because I want to show everybody his work. Lol. Thank you again to Dr Zimmerman and his amazing stuff.

I Couldn't Be Happier with the Results

I had an amazing experience with the staff and the doctor. The first consult I got somewhere else left me feeling so discouraged, I was ready to walk away from the procedure. After talking with Dr Zimmerman, I set my date immediately. They all made me feel so comfortable. Dr Zimmerman's work was amazing! I would not go anywhere else, and I would definitely recommend him to everyone!

I Recommend Dr Z

I went to Dr Zimmerman for a life and augmentation. I am very pleased with the results. The staff and Dr go above and beyond to make you feel like you're the most person when they are talking to you. I will see him again for any other cosmetic needs.

Mommy Makeover

Incredible Results with Dr Zimmerman!

I recently had a Mommy makeover performed by Dr Zimmerman. He was very attentive at all of my appointments and took time to answer my many questions. Post op he was very gentle and made sure everything was healing properly. My results are absolutely stunning and I have happily recommended him to my family and friends!

Dr Zimmerman and His Entire Staff Are Absolutely Phenomenal!

Dr Zimmerman and his entire staff are absolutely phenomenal! He spent an hour with me at my consultation and pre-op appointments and made sure all my questions were answered. He has a terrific bedside manner and genuinely cares about your happiness with the outcome... which, by the way, I am THRILLED with!! I had a minor complication and was SO impressed with the way and speed at which he got me back in, and fixed up. The complication was absolutely not due to anything HE did, but it was obvious he felt bad and he personally called me after the procedure to fix the issue, and had me do multiple follow ups to be 100% sure everything was good. He thoroughly explains what to expect throughout the entire process as well as what to do and not do, so I would guess the few reviewers who weren’t satisfied likely didn’t listen and/or follow his very clear instructions. Thank you, Dr Zimmerman for the “upgrades” and thank you to the wonderful ladies up front, and to the OR team!!!

Tummy Tuck with Liposuction

I am so excited to have this opportunity to improve my body. I am 26 years old with 1 child. I had my consultation with Dr. Zimmerman and scheduled my Sx for July 1 2019. I am utilizing the Jenny Craig rapid results weight loss program so I can drop 30-40 lbs before I undergo surgery. I have never in my life been this motivated and can’t wait to have my procedure done!! Updated on 27 Mar 2019: I’ve lost 7 lbs so far and can’t wait to get the surgery. High lateral tension tummy tuck with liposuction. Updated on 30 Jun 2019: Surgery is tomorrow morning!! Today I am doing all I can to prepare. Updated on 3 Jul 2019: I have been in a lot of pain since I had surgery. Today is the third day still hurt can’t stand straight yet. On pain meds still. So happy for my walker and raised toilet seat. Hopeful that the pain will subside. Muscle repair is by far the most painful.. haven’t seen results yet because I haven’t taken off my compression garment Updated on 4 Jul 2019: Updated on 5 Jul 2019: I just had to see what is under my cg and omg I am amazed with the results so far!! I am slowly standing straighter still have pain but everyday I have been making progress.i am so excited to get these drains removed but I have to wait 4 more days. Here is some pics of the progress. Please excuse the mess! Updated on 6 Jul 2019: Updated on 15 Jul 2019: Still swollen but seeing some progress. I’m definitely less swollen in the morning. And my feet have been swelling up , I’m not sure if that’s normal. My next post op appointment is tomorrow morning and then I will be returning to work.

Ideal Implant

I have always felt like I have a boyish body and decided on Ideal breast implants

I have always felt like I have a boyish body... and finally decided after research the ideal breast implant, that now there seems an implant that would be ideal for me. I am 36, 136lb, 5ft 4in, 36a/36aa and have two kiddos that I breastfed. Goal for procedure is to go Today was the day of the procedure at 8am. I have to say so far so good, it is not as painful as I anticipated -but I am one that prepares for the worse and is happy when it turns out better. I am not too swollen, I have taken arnicare which might have helped that. Pain wise, it’s like the feeling of being in gorged when you quit BF, and some on squeezing your rib case (tight hug?) really hard while you breath. So far Dr. Zimmerman has been amazing! A very genuine down to earth person. He joked with you while making you feel very informed and comfortable. There are no stupid question or “the look or rush/my time is more valuable than yours”. He is very patient, I suffer from anxiety so you can only imagine my interrogations and possible repeat of questions lol. The surgery was performed IV sedation with local, which has been amazing, I don’t feel crazy high or nauseous like what happens sometime with general. Updated on 18 Feb 2019: Day 3, exhausted but not in to much pain. I only woke up once last night! Yay! My anesthesiologists called yesterday to check on me, which was very kind. Today I get to shower and peek at then.... eeek I am nervous. Will post pictures. Updated on 18 Feb 2019: Showered today and finally got a peek. I think they are healing very nicely, the most unexpected part of my healing has been the pain in my sternum, but that is subsiding. My goal was/is a “c” cup. I am hoping to really taper down drugs tomorrow as I hate the feeling of being high even if it’s helping heal me. Life savers have been a back scratcher, ice packs and a recliner chair! And yes I am very bloated, ???? boo. The incision as you can see was Peri-Areolar, so far happy with my decision. Updated on 26 Feb 2019: The swelling has gone down. My energy is back up, I’ve started back at the gym (very lightly), lower half exercises. Ideal implants 386cc. I know it’s still very early, but I’m super happy with the results. I wanted something natural. Updated on 23 Mar 2019: Starting to drop and fluff, on one side more than the other though. I also included pictures of my areola scars healing really nicely, super happy I chose to do that as the place for incision.

Truly Amazing Experience

I came to Dr Zimmerman after many other consults with plastic surgeons trying to have my breast asymmetry fixed and my breasts enhanced with breast augmentation. He was the last doctor I went to a consultation with before making my decision, and it was an easy one! Dr Zimmerman made me feel so safe, at home, educated and appreciated. I knew that I would be well taken care of. The experience before and after surgery was great, and my results are fantastic. I am able to feel comfortable in my own skin and comfortable knowing I picked the right plastic surgeon. I recommend him to anyone seeking plastic surgery! His staff is also so friendly and helpful. Can’t thank Dr Zimmerman enough and his team enough!
