How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

A little over a year now
A little over a year
Hello again! I thought I updated at exactly 12 months post-op but I must have messed something up and didn’t save it correctly. :/
This is me over a year after surgery. I’m still very happy with the result. I never really think about my breasts anymore and when I do, I feel confident. I love the way they look in my t-shirts and dresses (somehow they seem larger when clothed) but I am happy with the subtle, natural look when I’m not wearing anything.
Some people asked me to please upload a pic with a push-up bra. I only own one and I didn’t get great pics but here are a few to give an idea. I’ll have to buy one that isn’t lacy or a balconette style to see what that looks like. To be honest, I still haven’t gone back to underwire bras really as I have become so used to comfy ones haha.
As for the cleavage question: My breasts have always been far apart and they continue to be far apart but I was expecting this, so I don’t really mind. It would be nice of course but on balance, I think it all turned out very well. My surgeon said something like, “they will be your breasts, just bigger.” I think he meant that there wasn’t a tremendous amount to be done in terms of shape/anatomical structure, which makes sense. (Some smaller-chested friends of mine can get cleavage with the right bra but I never have been able to.) My breasts do touch when I lie on my side now, which they didn’t at the six months post-op so that’s new. :)
I want to wish anyone who has happened upon this review and is considering surgery the very best of luck. Personally, I found it was a great experience to have all this support here. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with questions!

Softness at six months post-op
Softness at six months post-op
Here's a short video to show where my implants are at softness-wise. Look, I can finally squish them together!
Six months post-op
It's been six months already! It's really flown by, I can't believe it. The first month after the surgery seemed to crawl and then I blinked and here we are. :)
I'm very, very happy with my results. I feel like they look super natural. I love the shape and while it's been a significant change, they suit my frame quite well and no one seems to notice (a friend of mine asked me what kind of bra I had on, and I hadn't realized that she didn't know haha).
I have no numbness at all any longer and to be honest, most days I never think about my breasts, which is probably the most welcome change. I was so self-conscious before and I hated having them touched or looked at. Now, I feel like I'm back to my self (plus a few cc's ;p)
Scarring-wise, things are coming along, though they are still fairly dark, which I was expecting. I'm going to continue applying the silicone scar cream and start with vitamin E, as my doctor suggested after six months. Also, they have softened up even more now and I can push them together easily. (I'll upload a video today as well to give a better idea.)
I get to wear underwire bras on again as of today, but I haven't gone shopping yet. I'd love to see these in a push-up bra just for fun, but this soft-cup, no underwire life has been soooo comfortable. Not sure I want to give that up!

Provider Review
I saw Dr. Papanastasiou for a breast augmentation and I couldn't be happier with my results. He and his staff (especially Frankie, Stephanie and Eunice) are warm, friendly, patient and truly see you as a person first, not just a patient. They take the time to explain everything and to answer all of your questions. And I had a LOT of questions. Dr. P. called me the evening of my surgery to check in on me, and I could always reach someone when I called with a question or concern. I would recommend Dr. Papanastasiou to anyone considering this procedure.
