Breast Augmentation - Choosing between Surgeon & Style?

Question

I am ready to book my consultation for breast augmentation. I have found a collection of inspiration Photos of the style and shape of breast surgery I would like; round, upper pole fullness. I’ve also found a surgeon in my area who has phenomenal reviews; However, none of his photos look like I want, his style appears more natural, teardrop etc. Would you book the consultation with the great review surgeon or find someone further afield, perhaps not as many awards etc, but more “my style” ? Can you phone in advance to ask for more photos of their work in my preferred style?

You could start by asking the phenomenal surgeon in consultation if he could accomplish the 'style' you're looking for. It doesn't hurt to go to both consultations, anyway. Surgery is a big deal and some additional information might actually make it easier for you to decide what works for you. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Thanks for your question! Surgeons are here to serve our patients but we also want to do something that will be safe surgically. I think I would consult with the surgeon with a great reputation for patient care, safety and results and then if you wanted a second opinion, you could always seek that. Good luck!

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

You may want to visit a few board certified plastic surgeons near you for a consultation to listen to varying viewpoints.  The website photos may reflect the quality of result that the surgeon has delivered to a patient.  It's not necessarily the surgeon's style, but rather the style the patient wanted.
