So it’s actually been over a year since I had my surgery. I’m still experiencing numbness on my side and underneath my left breast. I’m just hoping that one day the pain and prickliness feeling will go away. Do I regret my implants. No- I think I was given the best possible implants for my anatomy. I do notice the dropping and lowness of the breasts but like my surgeon mentioned my crease is lower than average. It could be due to the fact I had children young (18) and they were forced to go from a B cup to a DD in 9 months 3x. I do feel better in clothes and about myself. I don’t have any regrets. I just wish I didn’t have to live with the numbness on one side.

Very Thankful

So I emailed Dr.Chen about my concerns with the nipples and dropping and the way they look in general. Turns out I'm going to need a crescent lift. So I'll find out when I go for my post op in July how much it's going to cost. I'm so disappointed, but what can you do. I just want them to look nice.

I can not say enough good things about Dr. Chen and his staff at his office and also the Sandia Operation Center. He called to check on me the night of surgery. I appreciate ANY provider who takes time out of their day to call and check on their patients. I had two breast augmentation consultations with Dr. Chen before scheduling my surgery. He made me feel EXTREMELY comfortable and answered all of my questions and spent time explaining to me what breast augmentation will fix and won't fix on my body. He explained everything in detail so that I wouldn't have unrealistic expectations in the end. Which I know I won't, but it's always more comforting knowing something right away and not getting any surprises in the end. We are all made so differently, with different body types. I highly recommend Dr. Chen and there's no doubt in my mind after researching several surgeons in the state I went with THE BEST plastic surgeon in the state New Mexico to do my surgery. I have 3 children, 29 years old, 5'6 and 150 lbs after trying different sizers I went with 400 CC's moderate mentor silicone gel which I feel is the perfect size for my body type and height. Thank you so much Dr. Chen for giving me my confidence back and making my body look more proportioned.
