Breast Fat Transfer

6 Months Post-Op - Overall I am THRILLED with my Results

These were taken about 6 months post op. My breast volume has decreased slightly, and I'm having a minor revision Jan 2022, but overall I am THRILLED with my results. I knew a breast fat transfer wasn't going to increase my breast size tremendously and I'll never have the implant shape, but I definitely got an size and a mini mommy makeover!

So Happy with my Results

I was so nervous about surgery, the recovery and the results. But all 3 of the procedures I had at once with Dr. Brown went great. I went in for my consultation and Dr. Brown took his time listening to my concerns so he could give me a thorough explanation for each of my options. There was no question or concern I had that went unanswered. The very next day the office sent me quotes. I downloaded the application they use to upload your before and after pictures. The application also has videos of Dr. Brown explaining what each procedure is, how he does it & instructions for the recovery process for you to reference. Every step of the way is very thorough. His staff takes great care of their patients as well. I am so beyond happy with my results! Dr. Brown and his team are so caring and helpful. Communication with the office staff was great. Even when Hurricane Sally came through the week of surgery, his staff kept me up to date with the status of my surgery. Thank you Dr. Brown and the team!

1 day before surgery - I am excited but also very anxious

So far Dr. Brown and his staff have been great. He has a wonderful sense of humor and has eased my nerves at each appt. Tomorrow I am going in to have lipo of my thighs and flanks, a donut lift, and a fat transfer to my breasts. I go in to surgery in the morning and I am excited, but also very anxious. I will post more after.

A rough road with a doctor that cares makes all the difference.

I went in for my consult with Dr. Brown and he explained all my options and his recommendations but also explained why he recommended those things. They let me come back in to retry the implants again before my surgery, they are busy but took the time so I could be comfortable. I had 590cc silicone implants with nipple reconstruction. I ended up having a random complication that resulted in having to have one of the implants removed 3 weeks post op. He remembered how much I didn’t like anesthesia and knew I saved up a long time for the surgery. He said we could try and do it in office. My implants were under the muscle which meant I needed to keep that muscle loose. I followed his instructions and had the implant placed in the office. It was easy and quick and I was back at work the next day. He was compassionate through the entire process. Having one boob and stuffing the other side was not mentally easy but he was encouraging and reassured me that it would be okay. I’m almost a month out and doing great. I’m so thankful that I waited for the right surgeon. I would do it all over again even knowing the complication because Dr Brown was 100% I am happy with the end results and doing great. He has a surgical nurse that assist him and she is wonderful! His PA is always helpful and keeps my spirits up with his wit. I would recommend Dr. Brown 100%!!

Over the Moon with my Results

I have wanted a breast lift for YEARS, but I couldn't bring myself to do it for a myriad of reasons. Then there was the pandemic, and I thought, why not now? I would have plenty of down time for recovery. So, I started shopping around for a PS. I googled breast lift with fat transfer online, and found Dr. Ben Brown of Restore Plastic Surgery. I loved the idea of having my fat repurposed to my breasts. I don't think anyone offers this in my area, and I gotta say-I'm so grateful to have found such a skillful surgeon nearby. To be honest, none of my friends were familiar with him (at first), and most of them have had experiences with other renowned surgeons in the area. Word of mouth is always reassuring, and I didn’t have that with him. However, based on my research, Dr. Brown specializes in very complicated surgeries, e.g. lymphedema and reconstructive breast surgeries. This man clearly loves what he does, and spends his days restoring confidence in these amazing breast cancer survivors. My gut told me if he can do all that, a lollipop breast lift with a fat transfer from the flanks would be easy peasy. I have had the BEST experience with Dr. Brown and his staff from the very start of my journey. Initially, I was a wreck at the consultation (seriously, having my naked photos taken was way more frightening to me than the actual procedure), but he and his medical assistants were wonderful to me. They patiently answered all of my questions and Dr. Brown gave me realistic expectations. He’s a brilliant and kind physician, and I truly appreciate him. My surgery was seamless. I checked into Baptist Hospital early in the morning. I had one last pre-op with Dr. Brown before going into surgery. I, surprisingly, didn’t feel all too nervous. I knew I was in good hands. Since I’m writing this review, I also need to give a shout out to all the nurses at Baptist Hospital. They were awesome! I went to sleep looking up at their friendly reassuring faces, and I woke up to perky swollen breasts. The first two days, post-op, were the worst. The lipo procedure was the most painful part of the whole healing process. But, none of the pain was unbearable and I managed it just fine with Tylenol. Other than that, recovery has been a breeze. Dr. Brown gave each breast 200cc’s. I am now 6 weeks post-op, and I feel that the fat retention is going well so far. I’ve had a couple questions along the way in regards to healing issues, but Sean always followed up with me and told me everything was normal. I am grateful for my follow up appointments. It’s comforting to know that if anything does go wrong, I’m not alone on this journey. Fortunately, this isn’t the case. My results go above and beyond my expectations. The shape of my breasts and areolae are beautiful and symmetrical, my waistline is nice and trim… and it accentuates my large booty. LOL He truly did a stellar job! I’m glad I waited as long as I did to get this procedure; I wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to do it. My husband is super stoked too.:-) Put it this way, when my friends’ mouths fall agape to the floor after seeing my results, and they ask for my surgeons info—that speaks volumes. Dr. Brown is an artist. THANK YOU RESTORE PLASTIC SURGERY!

Completely flat chested to a DD!

I’ve been wanting a breast augmentation for almost 7 years! I was finally able to go through with it and the outcome is just SPECTACULAR! I couldn’t have asked for a better PS. Dr. Brown gave me breasts that I am absolutely in love with and he also helped me reach a goal that once seemed like just a dream. Thank you for helping me feel BEAUTIFUL again! I received 445cc Natrelle Inspira High Profile Gummies and when I say these things feel REAL, I’m not exaggerating. More expensive implants, but so totally worth every penny spent! I had them inserted through my armpits (transaxillary) because I wanted absolutely no visible scaring & to look as realistic as possible! He most definitely helped me reach my expectations and I couldn’t be happier. (I’m only 4 weeks post op) lol. Updated on 6 Oct 2020: I had a breast implant exchange performed on me August 25th. I wasn’t satisfied enough with my first set of implants, I felt as if they weren’t portioned right and just not suitable for my body.. I may have had slight boob greed & still wish they were bigger now lol. But they are absolutely beautiful. Thanks Dr. Brown! Updated on 1 Jun 2021: After having 2 augmentations done last year, I am now 9 months post op and my current set of implants look like this...Could be worse, but could be a lot better. I will definitely be having another revision done, but I’m not sure if I will go to the same surgeon again. I’m just so disappointed with how far apart the implants are and I have absolutely no cleavage, even after forcing them together - they don’t want to move and have migrated towards my armpits because the breast pockets are still too big for the implants. I would love to get these exchanged out for 650ccs Updated on 6 Dec 2021: My boobs have dropped drastically. Honestly, they shouldn’t look like this at all..but I’m botched lol. When I lay down, my implants fall off into my armpits and my right breast has a HUGE dent in it. Pictures don’t do it justice. Not to mention, I have NO cleavage and my breasts will not push together when I force them. It’s as if they are stuck under my muscles like cement blocks lol. Updated on 27 Dec 2021: After spending over a year depressed with my second set of implants, I made the decision to fly to Miami & have an implant exchange done by one of the best surgeons in the US! I’m currently 6 days post op & I will continue to post photos/updates.

Best Plastic Surgeon! Dr. Ben Brown performed my DIEP breast reconstruction in April 2019

Dr. Ben Brown performed my DIEP breast reconstruction in April 2019 and I am very pleased with the results. Dr. Brown is very knowledgeable and competent in his field. He and his staff at Restore Plastic Surgery always treated me with patience and kindness. I never felt as if I was rushed through an appointment and Dr. Brown always made sure I understood the process and was comfortable with it. His pre-op and post-op instructions were clear and easily understood. Dr. Brown and his staff were very patient with me with all my many questions. I would not hesitate to call on Dr. Brown if I ever needed any other reconstruction or cosmetic services.
