S. Aaron O. Klomp, MD

I made a review last year when Dr Klomp worked his magic on a previous surgeons work (amazing breast lift and excess skin on my sides left from tummy tuck in 2017) loved him then and love him and his NP Nisha even more now!! I went back in this summer for a consultation I just wasnt happy with the one area he hadn't touched that was left over from my original tummy tuck (not his work) the scar was horrible, indented, discolored and rope like - he told me he could fix that by simply cutting out the old scar tissue and making a nicer thin smoother incision. ok! Sign me up! My surgery was 10/12/21 Im only 4 weeks out but, as I assumed, I am incredibly happy! I will post pics of before and after when I am all heeled up but I have to gush over Dr Klomp and his team! From Colleen the front receptionist to Rita the scheduler to Nisha his Nurse Practitioner to all the amazing nurses there - they set the bar so high I don't know that I will ever be able to explain to anyone thinking of cosmetic surgery how well they will care for you. No matter the reason for my calls or the questions in my appointments they always treated me so kindly and they were all so attentive I will miss them now that Dr Klomp has erased all insecurities I had about my original Mommy Makeover.

In 2017 I had a mommy make over with a conservative doctor, my results weren't terrible just not as aggressive as I was looking for and when he revised my dog ears on my hips he explained he kept everything more natural..... not the route I was going for. See, I already had natural D cups I wanted a lift and 380cc high profile silicone implants hoping for super high and tight breast and a snatched waist. I got a flat stomach (thank god) but no waist really and he only moved my nipples up didn't remove any natural tissue before tossing the implants in so I had giant sloppy saggy breasts- so I did a consult with a popular surgeon here in town, Dr Klomp. He was thorough, informative and in agreance that more could've been done- long story short I scheduled for a third surgery on April but due to covid it was postponed to August 19 (yesterday) This morning when I changed my garment even with the massive amount of swelling I am absolutely in love and with my compact high and tight breasts and my smooth hips. He did some lipo in my trunk and flanks as well so I know how the swelling goes and I have quite a bit more healing but so very very happy! Updated on 21 Aug 2020: Did my follow up today, the doc and I were both very pleased with the healing thus far, I will need massage on lipo areas as well as side of breasts to smooth things out, easy peasy and so worth the discomfort now. Necessities for recovery high end compression garment (I ordered two Marena post surgical garments) worth every penny when smoothing and compression is needed. Easily prepared snacks and meals to help nausea, logs to keep track of medications, a comfy place to post up. My pics were taken roughly 24 hrs after surgery, first time taking garments off.

I have always been big breasted in high school I was a 32ddd but with each kid I kept growing and ended at a 32 h. I was having nerve pain, shoulder pain, I couldn't work out with out extreme sternum pain. I had my surgery on 11/16/15. I was able to have the drains removed day two and was doing well till today or day six. I ended up bursting into tears, I was sore and trying to take limited pain meds. I'm terrified I'm going to become dependent on the OxyContin but after today realized Tylenol wasn't going to cut it right now. I don't regret it but it does make me stress that it's going to take so long to heal and that my husband seems so detached from me. I know he's tired and I'm something he has to take care of right now but I'm hoping everything heals quick. Updated on 26 Nov 2015: I got my staples out on Tuesday (day 8). I could barely feel them come out but my sides have increasingly become more sore since then. My husbands family was all getting together for a reunion and my husband really wanted me to come. Yesterday I was having fun and was fine but today I'm sore, weepy and feeling really isolated. I developed a uti yesterday so I'm just feeling yucky and frustrated my husband is so distant. When i do talk to him he rolls his eyes or was getting annoyed I wasn't up and happy. I love him but he can be really dense when it comes to emotion. I am always the calm one or happy one but I'm really needing someone to give me some support right now. I know handling the kids keeps him busy and his way of helping is giving me space and making sure the kids are taking care of. I'm sure my crazy emotions will balance back out soon. Updated on 7 Dec 2015: I developed a small swollen red spot around my nipple yesterday. No fever. I was cleaning my incisions tonight and pulled out a small black something and then a small amount of green pus came out and then this clear liquid. The skin opens now in the one spot. As for care I was cleaning it with soap and changed into a clean bra each day. I have also put bacatracin on it for the last three weeks as well as taken an antibiotic that I just finished two days ago. I am three weeks post op today. Is this something to worry about? Updated on 14 Dec 2015: I hit four weeks post-op and am feeling good. I have been healing well other than the incision at my t-line under my left breast came open and I had the dissolvable stitches which were trying to come out removed in office. Dr klomp's office is nice and efficient and got me in the same day I called. They have been so friendly and helpful.

Ok, so I'm not one of those girls that's always dreamed of big boobs. In fact, I've always been kind of anti-augmentation... I believe in be happy with the body I was given and not going to surgical extremes to alter what is good enough. Well that tuned started to change after I nursed a baby for a year... and now that she's almost 10 they just keep drooping. I'm getting close to 40 and I joke that I have to roll up the girls like tube socks and tuck them into my barely 34B bra. I'm extremely active (rock climbing, mtn biking, stand up paddle boarding, martial arts, teaching yoga, to name a few) So I pretty much live in tank tops and sport bras. When I get dressed up I just use one of my man super-padded push up bras to get the cleavage I want. I've had 2 consultations over the past 2 years with the same PS. He's been great every time in explaining the procedure and listening to my desired outcome and concerns. But I just haven't been ready... until NOW. It coincides with finally having enough time off to recover properly without damaging the goods (between jobs right now), and also wanting to increase my self-esteem by being able to wear my favorite sporty tops without needing a padded push up sport bra! haha. So after a lot of research, talking with friends with similar lifestyles who've had BAs, and most helpful.. this website, I've decided to go with Sientra textured shaped round base implants (based on my dimensions). I'm 5'4" and stay between 115-122lbs typically. I had my pre-op yesterday and took some different tops, bras, bikinis, sundresses, to try on with sizers. My biggest fear is being too big or looking obviously augmented. I just want to be filled out and be perky even without a bra. Even my daughter said "please don't get big boobs mom!" So after a very thorough pre-op I've narrowed it down to 270cc or the next size up- 320cc. My breast width diameter was shockingly wider than I would've thought. I thinks the PS said 14. So he recommended going with 320s to fill out my saggy bags and have little bit wider base of that implant. But he really seemed to understand and reiterate to me my desire to err on the side of too small. So both sizes will be ordered and he will try both on surgery day to see which gets the conservative look I'm going for while being the best cosmetic/aesthetic appearance. My husband is a dear heart and has never pushed my decision, has always worshipped me just as I am. But also fear me looking too big post-surg. I definitely am not trying to attract attention to myself. And don't want to be self-conscious to the other extreme of being noticed for my boobies first when we're out climbing, biking, etc. He and I both like the look of 320cc we've seen on this site, but feel that 270cc might be more practical/utilitarian, haha! I work in physical therapy and have very close contact with patients and don't want the girls getting bumped frequently during sessions : ) I am scheduled for surgery in 9 days and am getting so excited. Just wondering if anyone has last minute opinions, feedback, or advice that have had similar cohesive gel implants in that size range. Any regrets? Thanks so much in advance. I'm getting into the obsessive freak out zone and hope all goes well now that I've waited so long to do this! Updated on 16 Jan 2015: Will add more later without clothing on Updated on 18 Jan 2015: Thanks to all the wonderful reviews and experiences shared for pre- and post-op, I've got a list going of things to pick up this coming week. I feel a lot more at ease knowing what to expect and tips on what will make me more comfortable in the days after surgery. I've put this off for so long... mostly because I'm so scared to go under for a surgery that is totally optional. But the more I educate myself and become more confident in my choice, the less fear I have of the unknown. Thank you all so much! It really is a [RS bleep]-sterhood : ) I would be a lot more scared I'm sure without being able to read others' journeys and and what they would or would not do differently having been there, done that. Updated on 19 Jan 2015: I'm ordering some items off Amazon and wonder what has worked best for scar management once I get to that point? Kelo-cote seems popular on here. What about the silicone gel adhesive strips? Updated on 20 Jan 2015: My PS said he'll send me home with a "surgical bra", but after that what kind of bra has worked best for others out there? Is it really necessary to purchase a compression type bra, or does a regular front closure sport bra do the trick? Help! I'm getting so nervous for surgery day. I want to have everything ready to go Updated on 22 Jan 2015: Got out for a good long bike ride today- it will be my last for awhile... : ( My husband is taking me to the mountains tomorrow to ski and stay overnight at his moms cabin. He says to distract me and help get my mind off things... AKA get me away from the computer screen.. Haha! Yes my research has probably been overkill, but this is a major life-altering event for me. I mostly feel excited now and also prepared and educated. It will be good to get away for sure. I'll try to update again soon. Hugs to all the ladies out there who've helped me so much. I absolutely feel at peace with my decision. : ) Updated on 27 Jan 2015: I got an early start yesterday morn. Had to be at the surgical center at 6:30 and was laying on the op table at 7:30. Surgery took about 90 minutes but I slept until 10:30.. Was sooo hard to wake up! Then I immediately felt nauseous although I had phenergan in my drip and one if those patches behind my ear. I started dry heaving anyway, so got another phenergan in suppository form to make the car ride home. I slept the rest of the day. The hardest was getting in/out of bed but I was lucky to have my hubby to assist. Today it already feels like the worst is behind me. No more nausea and was able to get to my follow up appointment this afternoon for the grand unveiling! I LOVE them so far!! The ice packs and heating pad have been my best friends because my back has actually been hurting worse than my boobs since yesterday. I got out for a walk around the block this morning and it seems to take the edge off with deep breathing fresh oxygen. Here's some pics from my follow up appt today. No massage with textured shaped implants, but he suggested squeezing them together and then pressing them down just to help the settle into the pockets correctly. But I'm extremely happy with the outcome and the size. Updated on 29 Jan 2015: I've been doing more walking around my neighborhood and that seems to lift my spirits, not to mention improve circulation. I tried everything to get the surgical marker lines off and nothin worked until I tried a Mr Clean magic eraser. Did the trick, although I might have scrubbed too hard (that's why the red marks in my photos). I'm getting up and down on my own easier today and hubby finally felt comfortable enough to leave me home alone. I enjoyed some quiet rest time... I'm still very happy with the results. They're just what I wanted! Yayyyy Updated on 3 Feb 2015: I've been pretty groggy all week, letting myself rest and recover. Walking 2-3 mi/day at a very slow pace but yesterday I kids d of crashed and slept a lot. Today I feel I've turned the corner. I got a punch pass at the local gym to use the recumbent bike so I can keep my biking legs fit : ) I'm definitely ready to get on with it and keep up my fitness. I'm SO pleased with my results, especially now that they're softening a bit. They're the perfect size fore and I'm glad I didn't go any smaller (or bigger). I never had bruising, and didn't even have drains. Just been very sleepy from pain meds, and after going 1 day trying to go without I decided it best to at least take a small dose morning and night so it doesn't get too bad. But for a week out, I'm psyched on how fast I'm healing. Not nearly as much pain to lift my arms and do things around the house, although I'm being conservative. I'm thrilled that I haven't had any breast or nipple numbness at all! I would say the back pain has been the worst of this whole thing, but I've been able to sleep on my sides for short times the last couple nights which has helped. My hubby has been amazing with back rubs all week... I feel I've made it through the worst of it and stoked on the great outcome!! Updated on 12 Feb 2015: I took some updated photos a few days ago at the 2 week mark to keep track of the changes. Just getting around to posting them now. My daughter sees me change clothes all the time and is pretty blunt with her opinions.. Haha. She said they're looking a "little bit less huge,, weird and floppy" now. I'd have to agree : ) still having pain in the sternum and ribs, and ongoing pain in my mid back, but it's starting to get more comfortable to side sleep this week. Yeah! I'm just trying to be patient with the settling in process now until they look more natural. But very happy with the size I chose- 320cc Updated on 13 Feb 2015: Taken the night before surgery and at the 2 week mark. By summertime they should look purrrrfect! I can't wait to hang out at the lake in some cute new suits! Updated on 21 Feb 2015: Although the 3 week mark was 5 days ago, I'm enjoying having this photo journal for myself. They're feeling more natural by the day and I even laid out on my stomach (with pillow supports) to catch some rays this week. My PS cautioned me to be really careful in the sun to not worsen the scars, so I keep the girls protected well when I'm out. Been hiking a lot and biking at the gym and around the neighborhood, but can't imagine hitting the off road trails yet (Yowza jiggle factor! Ouch) Just trying to pace myself and the P.T./rehabber in me has been focused on gentle stretching (especially the back, pecs, and lats), and range of motion of the arms. My back pain is much better this week and I'm sleeping pretty comfortably on my sides for longer periods of time at night. They still look pretty funky though.. Haha. Although the constant tightness and achy boobs/sternum is gone this week. Hallelujah!! Progress... Updated on 23 Feb 2015: Feelin thankful for the modern marvel of insta-boobs! I used to think it was so shallow, but it really has improved my confidence and the way I carry myself in the world which is all I care about now. Self care and self love baby! When mama happy everybody happy.. Haha. I've had some rough times in my life and it feels great to walk tall and feel beautiful now... And let the dark times fall away. I feel like a woman and more attractive to my husband than ever (and it was great before). Our already wonderful marriage has been hit by lightning! Boom!! ???? I love that they're softer and squishier this week, but the nips are still ultra-sensitive. It seems the scars are healing up alright. I have my 4 week follow up appt tomorrow! Can't wait to tell Dr Klomp what an awesome surgeon he is and how very very happy I am with his work!!! Updated on 4 Mar 2015: They don't look much different this week, but I've noticed a huge improvement in functional abilities like laying on my stomach to stretch. I'm gently easing back into yoga within my comfort threshold, and so far so good. The Dr. told me last week just to give it a couple more weeks of avoiding any bouncing activities (mtn biking), but other than that green light on doing whatever I want! A good friend of mine who also had a BA said she didn't mtn bike until 3 months post op, so I might wait a bit longer to be safe. Having the textured shaped implants especially makes me want to avoid them turning before fully healed... Did I mention I LOVE them? I wish I'd done this sooner, and I made sure to thank my Dr so much for his great work and kind bedside manner. He also seemed pleased with the results and happy that I was so thrilled. He really is a miracle worker!!

Hi. this site has helped me so much. Adding my experience to get some more real support and perhaps help others with my experience as well. I am getting a TT, lift, and implants. So Nervous!! I am 38, 5'5, weigh 175, and have a Saggy D size Breast. Getting Silicone, but still deciding on CC... Updated on 10 Jul 2014: I went with a friend today to my PS to get a few questions answered and try on sizers...I think I am going with 450cc Silicone....I think!! Ahhhh, I am nervous for that size, but when my friend who has had implants showed me how to place them in the bra, and pull it tight by your shoulders, they looked good!! I still don't know! Man, this is a hard decision to make not knowing the end result. I am thinking 400 or 450. Either way, I have to decide soon! What a great problem to have, huh? As my husband would say, "First-world problems, yo!" Updated on 13 Jul 2014: Ahhhh!! I am a planner and a gatherer of random stuff when I am anxious and getting ready for anything, and NOT feeling prepared at all! BUT I am so excited. Two weeks, ladies! Two weeks! Fear of the unknown, the pain, and so excited for (hopefully) fabulous results. Just bought three Coobie bras (buy 2 get one free with code right now). Ordered some bioCorneum plus SPF 30, a neck pillow, and scaraway silicone sheets. Going to a store this week to try on compression garments. (They look so weird online, thinking it's a must try on kind of item.) Going with 400cc Silicone. Not sure of profile. My doc. said he would choose that based on my measurements. Is that typical? IDK. So pretty much just rambling now to myself....but I am needing to put this somewhere! Thank you. Updated on 20 Jul 2014: One week and one day! but who is counting?? Ha. Nervous. Excited. Scared. Been wanting this for four plus years and it's a week away! AAHHH!!!! Pics trying on sizers. Not the best, but gave me an idea. Still impossible to choose. I had the nurse order two sizes and I am letting the doctor decide in the OR. Updated on 26 Jul 2014: Surgery scheduled for Monday at 6:30 a.m. So nervous I could pee my pants!! Do any of you stay in an after-care facility the first night? My doctor requires that, which I am very grateful for. It will help ease my nerves to have a morphine pump for the first night and to be watched by nurses to make sure everything is going okay. I got my Faja compression garments and they were both so ridiculously tight. I measured myself too, and ordered an 2XX which I have never worn that size in Anything, and I couldn't even get the hooks to latch. I overnighted a 2X Marena and it fits perfect. Returning the Fajas. I think I have everything I need. I feel like I have been nesting!! Cleaning, organizing, stocking kitchen, getting random supplies. I think it's what I do when I feel out of control of what is about to happen. Makes me feel like I have a bit of control if I buy body pillows, supplies, bras, treats, random stuff! My husband is going to be here all week and can do anything I need, but I have this strange overwhelming feeling to "fix" everything. AAHH!! Don't like that feeling of the unknown, so I control everything I do know. Ha. Wish me luck, ladies!! Will follow up with pics next week sometime. Updated on 3 Aug 2014: Whew!!! I survived my first week! I spent my first night in an after care facility. Rough!!! The place sucked to say the least, but the liquid morphine was worth it. Getting into the car from the surgical center was a painful JOKE! These pics are two days post op, and I am already looking a ton better today. My tummy is still so swollen I ask myself if it's worth it, and my boobs look so weird....but I have to remember it takes time, right??? Please tell me I'm right. Ha. Then I look at before pics, and realize the tummy is in a improvement and is already a bit flatter than even these pics. Ask me day one or two if it was worth it, I'd say no way. Today, absolutely! The first few days of pain are REAL pain. The rest of the week has been bearable with compression garments, pain killers, valium, and a doting husband! I am worried about my boobies looking "normal." They need to drop more, but I am not sure about massaging them if it will affect my sutures? Advice there would be fabulous! Updated on 4 Aug 2014: Updated on 6 Aug 2014: How do y'all massage your breasts? I nervous I am not doing enough to get my implants moving but don't want to do anything to press too hard on my incisions. Feeling pretty good! Lower back hurts. First follow up tomorrow and praying to get the drains out!!!! Have a happy day ladies! Updated on 9 Aug 2014: Not the best pics. Hoping my belly is still swollen and will flatten out more. Feeling happy with results so far and very happy that I am feeling better very day. Getting one tube out on Thursday worked wonders for my psyche. Getting second drain out on Tuesday and stitches out of belly button. Oh happy recovery!! Updated on 13 Aug 2014: I got my second drain out yesterday and stitches out of my bellybutton. Neither hurt. Just felt weird. That was a real turning point from feeling like a Frankenstein patient to feeling normal ish. Those drains were a pain in the butt!! My seven year old boy thought it was hysterical that I told him I had big balls. :). I love my results more every day. My tummy feels flatter every day and my boobs are moving into their "home." I didn't have any tape on my incisions. Just glue. It is almost all the way off. Blown away at how thin my scar is!!! Excited for the purple pen and rest of the glue comes off. Baby step! Walking almost upright too! Updated on 13 Aug 2014: When I was at my appointment I complimented my doctor on his fabulous work. He told me it was easy with a perfect palate!! What a cute thing to say!! Updated on 16 Aug 2014: I can't believe that 17 days post op my nipple scars look this amazing. I am so grateful for a doctor that is so skilled. I worked for a few hours yesterday. That took a toll on me! I am used to laying around and still get fatigued so easy. I need to remember I am only 17 days out from a major surgery. Baby steps. Happy day, ladies. Updated on 23 Aug 2014: I am bummed today. My incision on my nipple and the base of my right boob popped open. They aren't really big but they are taking what feels like a long time to heal. My doc has me on an antibiotic and I am putting betodine on them so they don't get infected. Trying not to lift much so they don't get worse. I am bummed that my incisions were so small and now I'll have a bigger scar. When does the pain in boobs and belly subside? It's not that bad just nagging and occasional sharp pains. I am still very happy with my results. I just tend to get easily flipped out. Still fatigued. Man. Complaining today!!!! Getting my butt up and moving. Have a happy day.
