The Plastic Surgery Institute of Utah

Hello, I am thrilled about my breast surgery and I trusted my surgeon 100%. When I went in for my consultation, I figured I would need a lift as well as breast augmentation. In assessing my breasts and doing the calculations Dr. Moore, advised that he thinks by going over the muscle, moderate profile we could avoid a lift and the extra scarring and recovery time. So I agreed and went through with the surgery. Now here I am, and my left breast seems to have settled way quicker than my right.. I am worried that I am going to need a lift after all... or am overthinking as it is much too early in my healing and recovery process? Do you think the right breast will even out more with my left breast?

Day one.

If you have given birth this is a breeze as far pain wise. Mr.Moore was accommodating to my family with his team offering snacks and keeping everyone on my end happy while in surgery.

I was assisted to my vehicle and the person driving me home/assisting me home was given a mini lesson of how to best take care of my needs.

Not more than 20 minutes after leaving someone from the team called to reassure I was doing well.

With the financing options no other provider would take a chance on Mr. Moore gave me a opportunity to prove I am capable of receiving a surgery most mothers with several children could only dream of.

I was discouraged at first from seeing the negative reviews… In actuality. His bed side manners are in fact outstanding.

Granted if you are looking for a social worker/ psychologist to accommodate you and hold your hand and you are going to a surgeon thats mind is focused on making a educated plan to make modifications to your body. Well you are going to the wrong place.

The fact he gives mothers the opportunity to have a body they feel comfortable in shows his heart really is in what he does. Not to mention he is only putting in implants that are the best on the market.

I can't tell you how impressed I am with Dr. Moore and his staff. I had a great consultation and he was honest and explained everything. I booked my surgery and was excited for the day to come. My surgery was scheduled for the afternoon and I was in great hands the moment I walked into the office. Once I was back in the exam room, Dr. Moore came right in and went over everything once again. I remember going into the OR room and then waking up and it seemed dark outside. I asked the nurse if it was night and she said yes, it was 9:30 pm. I felt so bad that I was there that long and made all the staff work so long. The surgery went great and was only a few hours, however, I had a hard time waking up and I had even passed out a few times. Everyone had stayed with me, even Dr. Moore. It was 11 pm when I was feeling better and able to go home. They checked in on my husband who was waiting for me, every 30-45 mins as well as giving him snacks to make sure he was eating since we were there so long. The next morning the nurse called to make sure I was feeling better. I had my day one follow up and again, I did not have to wait and was cared for by amazing nurses and staff. Everyone really cared about me and how I was doing. I apologized many times to them all for making them all stay so late and they all said there is no need to apologize, they were just glad I was doing so much better. I am almost 2 weeks post-op and starting to feel back to normal. I will see Dr. Moore at the 3-week post-op mark. I have had a great result thus far and I know it will only get better when fully healed. Thank you to Dr. Moore and all his amazing staff!

I have wanted breast aug for 10+ years. I finally did it for my 31st birthday/Christmas!

When I was 20 I lost 60lbs and they never looked the same after. I was a D long time ago and the past few years a B with extra skin and sagging. I hated my boobs for the longest time. I’ve also competed in fitness competitions and it made them pretty much non existent. I wore thick inserts in my sports bras and thick padded bras. I went with 440cc high profile because it was proportional on me and we thought it would fill up my breast better.

After going to a few consultations and hearing great things about Dr Moore, I decided to go with him. Also I wanted his rapid recovery. I may need a lift down the road but the way he did the augmentation I don’t need one. My husband and I liked how he didn’t want to be the one to make the decision of me not being able to breast feed because of a lift. I haven’t had children yet. We plan on one. I guess a lift runs the risk of cutting into breast tissue and damaging it. I also liked that they wouldn’t go above 440cc, it helped me keep my feet on the ground. I tried on up to 560 at other offices. The width of my breast was 12 and the width of 440 was 12 or just above that. I didn’t want to be too big or too wide and have boobs in my armpits.

My recovery has been great so far! Minimal pain, swelling and bruising. (Bromaline supplement helps). I am a little numb near my nipples. I’ve been able to sleep on my side, I am not a back sleeper. I was out and about since the next day, but not exercising yet. It’s been one week. I have more range of motion in my arms. I’m just waiting for them to drop a little more and the stitches to dissolve before going bra shopping and I want to see the final look. My experience has been great.

I’m sore and very sensitive. I’ve started walking on the treadmill and I did a leg workout which was 2 1/2 weeks post. The picture is 2 weeks post. I’m waiting for my 3 week appointment to get reassured my recovery is going well. It looks like the implant on your left needs to drop a little more and it feels weird when I bend over. Overall I feel great

1 mo post. I’m writing this 10mo later. I was feeling great, no pain, nipples were still very sensitive. I went back to light lifting after 3 weeks! Incisions are still healing, I’m still doing stretches. When I keep up on them the muscles surrounding aren’t so tight.

I have no issues! The incisions are still dark. I know they’ll take over a year to heal. I was cleared to do all exercises. It feels weird and kinda hurts to do chest. I don’t do chest, pull ups or tricep dips. I’m prepping for a bodybuilding competition. I can still fee a few the internal stitches. I absolutely love them! I bought 2 bras at 3 months? I felt I didn’t have anymore swelling and they dropped. I’m a 34DD. I have some extra skin underneath but it tightened up after I dropped some weight, I might need a lift later but I’m waiting until after I have kids

I wanted boobs for a long time. To be honest, I diddnt know what size, what type, or anything about implants. Dr Moore helped me determine that I wasn't someone who needed or wanted huge obnoxious fake boobs, I more liked the "look". Anyways, staff was amazing and down to earth while being professional. I've seen some reviews on here that the "rapid recovery" is BS. Well not for me! If you follow the guidelines, stretch, and you are relatively healthy you will be out and about the next day. I had 2 hours of bad pain. That was it. Good luck!

I had such an amazing experience at Dr. Kirk Moore’s office.
I am so pleased with my results so far.
The staff was so friendly and kind, and they made me feel so comfortable.
The room was so nice and clean, they even brought me lunch.
And the whole time I got to watch a movie!
I have been to another office and I wasn’t happy at all.
They treated me awful!
In fact I was treated with a attitude that I felt fat.
They didn’t provide lunch, even a water.
They didn’t provide a movie anything so I definitely wasn't comfortable.
So I decided to go somewhere else and I’m so happy that I did.
Because I am so happy.
I have told all my friends and family about Dr. Kirk Moore’s office.
And I’ve already had a few friends go there.
I truly had such an amazing experience with this office.
I wish I would of gone there first.
The girl that did my procedure was so knowledgeable and made me feel so comfortable.
She suggested to start with a few different areas, and I’m so glad I did.
When I left Dr. Kirk Moore’s office I was so excited by the way I was treated.
Customer service is one of the most important things in a business.
I felt like they were my friends.
When I set the appointment time up, they definitely treated me so kind on the phone.
They answered all my questions and talked to me about what I should expect for that day.
They let me pick a movie and even brought me lunch!!
I truly had the best experience!!!
I wish they had 2 machines so friends could go together.
I have already made my next appointment.
And the next day, they called me to see how I was feeling.

The staff is wonderful. They are the best. Very experienced and professional. They make you feel comfortable in any way they can. Definitely would recommend them to anyone who is interested in getting CoolSculpting.

3 years ago I had a breast reduction that ended up leaving me almost flat chested. I was devastated but felt crazy for wanting to have boobs again after having a reduction. I had my consult with Dr Moore and knew immediately he was the surgeon for me! He made me feel so comfortable and assured me the way I was feeling was normal and actually common. His staff was always pleasant and comforting! They made me feel amazing and my results are better than I was hoping for! Highly recommend!

I 6 mo out from BA with Dr Moore. I had such an awesome experience with Dr Moore and his staff. He was very forthcoming with his opinion on what he thought would look good and wouldn't which I loved. All his staff was so sweet and caring. Recovery was the easiest I could have ever imagined. I would highly recommend Just the Right Curves and Dr Moore!

I am so happy I chose Dr. Moore! I just had a lollipop lift with breast implants 3 weeks ago and couldn’t be happier. I’m still recovering and have a few weeks left but I’m very happy with my results and absolutely adore everyone in that office. Dr Moore knows what he’s doing and did a beautiful job! I can’t wait to see what they look like when I’m fully healed.

I have a scheduled breast augmentation for March 27th. I have paid half for half of my procedure and currently working towards the other half. Ever since I paid I have had second thoughts and doubts on if the procedure is really worth it. I've wanted a breast aug. my entire life. I currently sit at a 34B but could fit in an A cup but from nursing my babies I have some extra skin.
