Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.      
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.

Symmastia

This picture shows the symmastia. The bra and angle make them *look* a little better but you can see how then aren’t separated. They had no upper pole fullness, my nipples pointed up, wrinkles all between them and on the bottom, fell into my armpits when I laid down. It felt like having heavy sacks falling off my chest.

Before and after

On the left is my breasts before getting my recent revision. On the right is my revision — it still had not rounded out but you can compare for yourself. The revision is only getting BETTER and rounder — AND it actually has MORE volume.
Moderate profile implants were the complete WRONG choice for my frame and THREE plastic surgeons told me this! They made me look wider! They were low and flat even without bottoming out. Dr Romano never even TOLD me about implant profiles.

HORRIBLE

I got breast implants from dr romano. He never discussed different implant profiles for me, I didn't even know about them. Instead, he did moderate profile implants -- which all three plastic surgeons I consulted with afterwards said were too wide and too large for my frame. In fact most PS don't even use moderates anymore. Then he overdissected the pocket in every direction. Both implants bottomed out and I had symmastia. I could not even look at myself in the mirror without crying. Prior to this my breasts were small but pretty perky -- I never breastfed but had upper breast fullness loss and pseudoptosis. Now I was 33 with the low flat beasts of a busty 70 year old woman.
It was disgusting. I am still devastated and embarrassed.
I would *never* let him touch me again in a surgery room. I had to pay over $10,000 for capsulorraphy and implant replacement with another doctor. I've been afraid to even post this review as he did not make me feel comfortable discussing what I really wanted, just rushed and as if he had the answers. Well, I trusted him and this is how it ended up. If I could go back, even though my second surgeon has fixed a lot of the damage, I would never EVER have done this.
