Regret it - left with big droopy breasts with nipples pointing downward

I’ve wanted to write this review for a few years now. Dr. Donath performed a breast augmentation on me about 4 years ago. It’s still something I think about often because I don’t want anyone else to go through what I did. At the time, my main concern about breast augmentation was being “too big” because I’m very petite and always have been except around the time of my surgery which I made very clear to the Dr. I’m 5,2 and was 117 pounds (at my heaviest). After breastfeeding my kids, I simply wanted to have breast again, instead he gave me big droopy breast, with nipples pointing downward. It was such a waste of money!!! I should have listen to the red flags, he told me that girls usually want to go bigger. I said I wanted no more than 300 cc’s and he put 320 cc’s on me. Also they were super high, and spread out which made me look wider. I would have love to have tried on some implants to figure this out. Also I would have liked to know just how wide they would be. After my surgery, I followed instructions and I listened to him, I figured I should wait for them to heal, but as time went on, they were worst on my body. I wanted my implants out after 3 months because I felt my breast looked deformed (nipples pointing down) but he didn’t want to take them out. He finally agreed to get my implants out 9 months later but not without being rude and mean and telling me that I had body dysmorphia disorder. I believed him, and have been in therapy ever since. That’s why I never posted a negative review because I trusted them and thought this was MY problem. I’ve never had another cosmetic surgery or procedure. I’ve NEVER been on a diet in my entire life (I’m 37). Finally after years of therapy trying to heal from the bullying I experience from Donath, I finally feel free to speak up. The thing that I regret the most is not trusting myself at the time to understand that he was labeling and bullying me into thinking that not liking my results was my fault. I probably needed a lift and a smaller implant but he NEVER LISTENED. I’m only posting this review because I don’t want other patients being gaslighted and treated poorly by this man.
