2 1/2 years later, still the best decision I ever made

WORTH IT$6,700

I had always wanted larger breasts since I was a teen. Relative to my body shape, I felt my breasts were lacking and always had a hard time finding bras or clothes that fit correctly.

I had three consultations, including Dr. Stephens. I liked his demeanor and expertise, so I went with him and his staff.  The whole process was so smooth. Even my recovery was a breeze. I had surgery on a Thursday and was back to work on Tuesday. I was up and walking around just fine the day after.  Since I had the surgery I have so much more confidence in myself. When I mention that I have implants I always receive the same shocked reaction- nobody believes they aren’t natural.  I absolutely love the way I look thanks to Dr. Stephens.  If you’re considering breast implants, definitely go for it. If you need a surgeon in the Seattle area who will give you the results you want, talk to Dr. Stephens.

It has been a year and a half since I got my augmentation done. From the moment I sat down with Dr. Stephens and through all my post-op appointments, I have felt so comfortable with him and under his care. I never felt rushed during my consultation and was allowed to ask as many questions as I wanted. We used Vectra (I think it was called) to create a computer simulated image of my breasts with different implant sizes. I picked my size and scheduled the surgery. When it came to my surgery I was well prepared and confident that the results would be right for me. The doctor informed me that he changed the size of one of the implants to create symmetry, which I trusted. We ran over the procedure thoroughly and everything went smooth. I had a lot of pain within a day of surgery and my (now husband) called the nurse and they were able to work out getting me a stronger prescription even though it was late Friday afternoon. RESULTS: I cannot say enough good things about the results. My breasts look amazing in everything, but not fake. Nobody could tell I had surgery even though I went back to work within a few days. My breasts are proportional to my body, shaped well, and are soft. They have done so much for my confidence and I absolutely love them! Thank you Dr. Stephens!

Hi,

Thanks for sharing your before and after photos. I'm 5'7" and 150lbs and have surgery in 3 weeks. Still not sure if I want to go 450cc or 485cc. I am currently an A cup and decided to do moderate profile. Are you happy with the size? Any recommendations on size for me?

Thanks!

They look great!!!!! Did you go mp or hp? I have my surgery tomorrow and I'm so nervous!!!!
I went moderate. Don't be nervous! It'll be a total blur and before you know it two weeks will have gone by and you'll be back to normal. :) Just stick to your normal routine today and take the lorazepam to help you sleep. You're gonna do great!

Can't believe it's already been 12 days. It seems like the swelling does not want to go away. My boobs are still really firm and swollen. There has been some muscle tightness in my left breast especially. I have had some seeeerious sensitivity in my nipples and incisions. The incisions sting really badly when I have my strap on but if I lean back at like a 45 degree angle it takes the pressure off of it and relieves it. I have had some stingers that hurt so bad I thought the incision had actually split open- turns out it's fine. :) The great thing is my boobs look so good! Better in clothing at the moment, actually. I am pleased with my results and I know they will only get better over time.

Aww I'm sorry to hear about your incisions. I hope they stop stinging soon...but hey, at least your boobs look good!! :) I'm almost 3 weeks and they are still swollen and square looking. Patiently waiting for them to drop and fluff hehe At my last appt, he said I only have to wear the strap at night. Thank goodness, that thing is painful/annoying to wear >.
I am so done with the strap!! Haha. My next appointment is in the morning at 8. I wonder what he will say. He was amazed at how good I looked for being only 6 days post op, like the color of my skin and clearness in my eyes, but I went back to work after five days. I felt fine enough to go and I have a lot of work going on right now. I'm hoping I can stop using the strap and he can recommend some more boob squishing exercises! Haha. Oh I forgot to mention he took off three moles on my boobs while he did the operation! I was so happy that he even offered! Dr. Stephens is great. :)
