Dr. Colgrove is an Artist!
WORTH IT
I'm only just starting my review, and I want to add more comments as time goes on, but I am.extremely happy with every procedure I've received.
I booked my consult with Dr. Colgrove in August and began the process of meeting staff, choosing my implant size and procedures. I opted for Motiva Ergonomix Demi Moderate profile, under the muscle, 575 cc's. I also requested liposuction, because i didn't really like the shape I was left with in a previous procedure with a previous surgeon. I wanted Dr. Colgrove to restore my natural shape, but i didn't want to waste harvested fat, so I requested a fat transfer to my temples. Dr. Colgrove also recommended a transfer to my cheeks. Once the consult was complete, finance info was given to me, I booked the date of my surgery, and I paid a 1k deposit. When I sat with the price (approx 12.9k), I decided to add a procedure I have wanted since I was a teenager
...a labiaplasty!
I had another consult to take a look a my labia and then a pre-op appointment on November 20th.
On the day of my surgery, I had been taking vitamin c for about 6 weeks and iron for about 10 days. All of my meds were filled and my Type A hubby had made a med chart for me. I scrubbed down with hibiclens in the shower first thing in the morning. My procedure was scheduled for 0800 but hubby and i were instructed to arrive at 0700. When I arrived, Nicole got my IV hooked up and I dressed in my oh-so-chic surgical attire, said goodbye to hubby, laid down on the OR table, and woke up hours later.
The first 24 hours I recall wanting to see my breasts, but otherwise I was mostly snoozing. The following 5 days though?? I was not prepared for the level of pain and discomfort I was in. I cried constantly, I could barely move, and the sharp pains in my stomach, ribs, breasts, and vagina were unreal. Hubby kept my meds rotating...I don't know what I would have done without him.
The first 10 days were serious emotional days. Lots of tears for no reason. Regretting my decisions. Cursing myself for having the bright idea of having surgery. I was an absolute disaster. Truthfully, it wasn't until day 9 and 3 panic attacks leafing up to getting my drain out that I feel like i really finally turned the corner.
I'm four weeks out now. Still waiting for the drop and fluff, but overall I am obsessed with my results.
