I had a breast lift and augmentation, but the doctor didn't lift as much as I would have wanted. I wanted more skin off to create rounder breasts. My breasts look long. The nipples are not where I wanted them. Since it was so expensive & something I needed, I am not fine with the results if this is it. I'm at 2 months, but I won't rush into it, I'm waiting for the 3 month mark to be sure. My doctor is wonderful and very nice, but I'd never want to make them feel like I'm insulting their work.

Answer: Do plastic surgeons get upset when you're not happy with their work and need a revision? No, any well experienced plastic surgeon understands that it is not possible to achieve patient satisfaction all the time. This is especially true for more complicated procedures such as breast augmentation/lifting surgery. Revisionary surgery is a well accepted part of the process; in other words, every plastic surgeon who has any experience at all knows that a significant percentage of patients will require revision surgery to improve their outcomes. Therefore, plastic surgeons are generally not "insulted", unless the form of communication is less than ideal. In other words, I recommend patients communicate their disappointment in a calm/constructive fashion; avoiding inflammatory terms such as "botched" is helpful. This type of respectful communication allows for maintenance of a physician/patient relationship conducive to working together to improve the patient's outcome. I hope this helps.
