Excited For The Final Results!

WORTH IT$9,275
I had my breast augmentation with Dr. Kim two weeks ago. Unfortunately, I developed a hematoma on my right breast and had to go in for a second surgery 2 days after my initial surgery.
My experience with Dr. Kim has been excellent. Even though his bedside manner is slightly off and he usually seems pretty rushed (understandable since he's in high demand). I wouldn't say he's unfriendly or anything. He's always answered any questions I had and he's always been pretty timely and responsive when it came to answering any concerns I had via email. His work speaks for itself - I highly recommend him!
I'll be adding photos of my BA progress :) As well as the specifics of my BA.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience as I'm also looking to book in with Dr.Kim. Really sorry to hear about you developing a hematoma, that would of been super stressful especially in this climate. I hope all is well with you now and your breasts are settling nicely :) Can't wait to see your pictures!! X

Yes, I developed a hematoma and had to go in for a second surgery two days after my initial surgery so dr kim could drain the blood. Thank you so much!!

Did you have to go under general anesthesia again?

Yes I did unfortunately!

Aww man! I’d be nervous going under again. Still contemplating going in for a revision with him. I don’t mind the healing process. I just get nervous thinking about going under haha

Two Weeks!

beachxbabe
Added some pics of my BA 2 weeks after my surgery! The swelling has gone down a lot. My left breast is dropping faster than my right breast but as my right is also the one that had to have two surgeries, and is also my dominant side. I’m loving them so far!

Day after Hematoma Surgery (2nd Surgery)

beachxbabe
Added some photos of my BA the day after my hematoma surgery. Will add some photos of me before my BA. Sorry for doing everything so backward!
I went 325cc High Profile. I am 5’4, 112lbs, and was 32A.
The day after they looked so small - I was freaking out a little just bc I was still in a lot of discomfort and they honestly looked so terrible lol. I knew that they do look very small and tight initially but it was still scary seeing it!
As you can see - I was super bloated. I only took one Vicodin (which I split in half) the day before my hematoma surgery. I was still in a lot of discomfort after that but not enough to feel like I had to keep taking my vicodin. I did take extra strength Tylenol when I felt like I needed it.
As you can see, I was extremely bloated. I really wasn’t expecting that. I was also constipated for a week (sorry TMI). Those two things I really wasn’t ready for - so be ready for that!
The bloating took about 2 full weeks to go away.
