I am 5'2" and was a 32DDD, and they really hung low for someone my age. I am about 110lbs and have been on the thinner side for my entire life. It was hard to find many clothes to fit me and my back and shoulders hurt. I had wanted to have this done for most of my adult life but was kind of scared to have it done. I am from ny and I live in Florida. I found Dr. Ress through a friend who had had a breast augmentation and was very pleased with his professionalism and the staff. I was not a candidate to have my insurance pay because I didn't want to have small breasts but needed a lift and reduction all the same. So I made an appointment and because of work was not able to have the surgery for a year. I put a $1,000 deposit down and waited to get my nerve up. On the 23rd of September I had my procedure. I was at the office at 6am with a surgical bra that I got at nordstroms. They started around 9. The anesthesiologist was lovely and I was nervous but at ease. DR. Ress did the surgery in his surgical center. My mom was nervous about that but it went well. We left the office at about 1pm and I was very nauseous but did not throw up. He gave me a prescription for pain,a med for cramping which was like a Valium and an antibiotic. My mom came down to take care of me and boy did I need it! I went back the next day to be checked and I was doing well. I was in some pain but not terrible. There was some bleeding but not much. The first 3 days were the worst and after that I was feeling better each day. I was still not able to Do anything for myself so my mom took me home to ny. That was the best decision! I was so constipated from the pain medication that I couldnt poop and needed an enema! OMG, THANK GOD FOR MY MOTHER. Iwould have had to go to the hospital by myself. Flying was not bad and I got to stay with my family and be babied so I felt comfortable. Around day 10 a few stitches opened up in the front of my left breast and I was scared! I called the doctor and sent him a frankenboob selfie. He said that it looked ok and not to worry. No infection but he put me on another antibiotic. Well that was all it took to give me a yeast infections! I'm actually going to tell him give out prescriptions for that and fill it if you need to! My vagina almost burst into flames! Day14, got back to Florida and saw the doc again, he said that it looks good except for the stitch break, its about 1/2 inch and looks like it's healing ok, no infection, yet. He gave me some kind of rubbery bandaide to put over the yellow scab. He said keep it covered and keep doing what I'm doing. Which is just shower each day and clean it. My mom came down on Thursday night to check up on me for the weekend. This is not something she would usually do since she just saw me, but I'm glad she is here. The scab is healing well I think?, and I am going to see the doc on Monday the 20th. I'm still tired and the girls still ache but I'm back at work with a note not to lift. I'm having trouble finding a bra to fit me because it has to be without underwire. I am still a D but they are high and perky and there is still swelling. I'm sure I will be a C in the end . I am so happy I had this done and my road to recovery is finally here! Oh one other thing Dr. Ress' office gives some discounts so haggle a bit. We didn't know this and when we signed on the dotted line they gave us some discount.

Doctor Ress was very nice and professional the staff was nice and they were easy to reach even on a weekend. Dr. Ress gives out his cell phone number so if you are panicked you can call him. Not so sure if I was a doctor I would do it but it was nice to have. We called the nurse with questions and she was wonderful. He has a great background because I looked into it and I'm very good at that. Nothing glaring In the record. He practices in his own community and I feel that if you weren't any good you wouldn't do that. The office shares an odd space, the floor has a hair salon that shares an elevator so I think that is weird and I was thrown by it. Our experience thus far is good and we are very happy to see things moving in the right direction. Dr. Ress is very capable and has a nice following.
