Exceptional Experience

I had a breast augmentation (480cc) on July 25th 2019 with Dr. Paletta at the Georgia Institute for Plastic Surgery in Savannah, Georgia. The whole process was everything you could want. From the phone call with Dani to make the initial consultation appointment to current one month post op appointment with Michelle and Dr. Paletta! Everyone was so personable, friendly and most importantly honest.
The day of my surgery was relaxing and stress free Hillary got me set up in my own room while I approached surgery time. Dr. Paletta came in to drawl and asked if I had any last questions or concerns and eased my mind a bit more!
After surgery I recovered and was picked up to head home! While I was still groggy, I was still up and moving around!
Day 2- I was very swollen (as expected) but not in as much pain as I anticipated! I listened to my body and took my pain medication & rested when I needed it (first 3 days)
Day 4- TAKE YOUR LAXATIVES & stool softeners!!!! My body was retaining all the water I was drinking. Between the pain medication, not having a bowel movement and getting my period on top of it all my abdomen was SO swollen. By my second dose of laxatives, and a bowel movement later my swelling subsided (day 5!)
1 weeks post op - Dr. Paletta checked out my progress and Michelle removed and replaced my bandages! We went over any questions and concerns (numb/ over sensitive nipples) as well as breast massages.
One month post op- feeling great!! Scars are healing, swelling and tightness is going down, breast are beginning to soften, able to lift more weight & exercising (again listening to my body!)
After having and nursing 2 kids, my breasts were not what they used to be, neither was my self confidence. My fiancé’s support and encouragement, Dani’s reassurance and sense of humor, Michelle’s genuine way of easing my mind, and making me feel comfortable, and Dr. Palettas knowledge, way of including my fiancé, flawless work and honesty - I showed him pictures of what breast sizes I liked and he advised me “they are too big for your frame/ you won’t be happy with those results as they are too small, these certain sizes would be a happy medium” I chose 480cc and he confirmed that I would be happy and they would be perfect! - what more could you ask for?
I am over the moon happy with my results and how well I am healing and feeling! Everyone that knows me and sees me says “ I got my glow back!” I can’t wait to continue to see my results get even better!
