My New Beverly Hills Boobies! - Beverly Hills, CA

I can't speak for anyone else, but I had an incredible experience with Dr. Ellenbogen. He is very kind and professional, and gives you all of the information you need to know. Before my surgery, he took pictures and showed me exactly which lines he wanted to change on my body, and 4 months later, looking at my before and after pictures, he did EXACTLY what he said he was going to do. I got silicone implants, and they look and feel SO real. They are in a great position on my body (not too high or too low) and the incisions are disappearing very quickly. The surgery was a breeze - the nurses were so sweet and made sure that I was very comfortable and happy. I was really nervous but his whole team (nurse, anesthesiologist, and dr.) made me feel really taken care of. My pain afterwards was not too bad, I didn't have to take any prescription pain medication, I just relied on tylenol (and valium for the first couple days). I was back to the gym in two weeks, driving in one week, and most of my pain was gone by the first month. I am SO happy with my decision - if you want a great boob job, don't make a mistake and go with a cheap doctor - Dr. Ellenbogen is worth every penny. Also: his assistant Sarah is the absolute sweetest person, and she will take care of your every need. She answered so many of my random questions pre- and post-surgery by email within 24 hours. She also doesn't give off anything close to that pretentious bev hills vibe that you get from a lot of people who work in plastic surgery - I fully trusted that I'd chosen a great doctor after talking with her for a couple minutes. Summary: I wouldn't change a thing, Dr. Ellenbogen is an artist.

Hey girls!! I had my one month post op today!!! WEEEE!!!! It went great, the doctor took out one last stubborn stitch and then squeezed my boobs and said they were feeling great. Then, he gave me some scar stuff called biocorneum that is silicone infused gel. It is supposed to be the only thing that actually works for surgical scars and it is kind of like a liquid band-aid. The only thing that sucks is that you have to let it dry, which takes a long time, but I just put it on when I know I have a few minutes to chill without a bra. I hardly had any pain today and I can sleep pretty comfortably on my side now. I even did the elliptical today!! We'll see how they feel tomorrow though... I'm just so happy that the incisions have healed nicely. The doctor said they are sealed, so I can relax a little about infections, and stop wearing polysporin with gauze+tape wherever I go. I got an AMAZING bra from VS that has underwire but it is really supportive and soft and comfy. I was so tired of wearing sports bras :/ Oh and I think I actually came out a 34D! The 34Cs are too small for me! I don't even think my boobs look that big but I guess it's because I have a small band size and small upper body. I attached a pic of my incisions! Hope everyone is doing great!!

Hey girls! I am almost at the one month mark! Can't believe it!!! So here is the progress update - my incisions seem like they are healing pretty well - they are almost fully sealed. I have been putting polysporin on in the morning and at night, with sterile pads over it. I find that this works because it keeps them away from any potential infections, as well as keeping them covered in antibacterial gel. I've also been going bra-less a lot, which I find is actually the most comfortable option AND as my friend brat9 pointed out, helps to keep them moving and loosens them up. I have actually been wearing pushup bras out once in a while, and they aren't bad at all! My BF got me some super soft, beautiful ones from VS - they are amazing, but I almost don't fit into them because I think we all know VS makes bra sizes a little too small to make us feel bigger :D I will update again after my one month post-op when I know more about my progress. A couple things that have been bothering me: sometimes a get a sharp pain ( I think nerve pain) in the upper part of my boob, but it seems to only appear when I do the massages especially vigorously. Also, my boobs have been SO itchy!! Other than that, can't complain!! Lovin the new boobs SOOO much!!
