A Thorough and Talented Surgeon That Delivered an Amazing Result
ABOUT ME: I am 33 years old and have two children. I am 180cm tall and wear a size 12 on the bottom half and 8/10 up top. My bra band is size 12.
CONSULTATION PROCESS: I had two consultations with Dr Hanikeri prior to my surgery. I had a million questions and he was very patient and honest in answering them all. I wanted a generous augmentation with a natural looking result and particularly wanted the Motiva Ergonomix implant as I had read that it was very soft and took a natural shape in the body. Dr Hanikeri agreed it would be a suitable implant for me and recommended the 590cc size (I am 180cm tall with full hips so this size was proportionate to my frame).
SURGERY EXPERIENCE: I had my augmentation done at West Leederville Hospital. The staff were friendly and professional. Dr Hanikeri checked on me a couple of times afterwards and it was reassuring to be able to speak to him and hear that the surgery had gone well. I felt OK while at the hospital but unfortunately after I was discharged I started feeling very nauseous and kept throwing up every hour. I ended up calling the anaesthetist who advised me it was probably a reaction to the anaesthetic and would pass by the next day, which it did. It wasn't pleasant but a small price to pay for my result!
AFTER CARE: I had follow up appts at 1 week, 7 weeks and 7 months (included in the total cost of my augmentation). Additionally, Dr Hanikeri told me I could contact him if I had any questions or concerns, which I did do a couple of times in those early weeks. He was very prompt in getting back to me and helpful in his responses. I really appreciated having a direct line to him, especially as my implants took a while to settle in and I was worried about that at the beginning.
RESULTS:
SHAPE: I had some serious frankenboob going on in the early part of my recovery, and it took quite a while for my breasts to take on a more natural shape. 7 months on though, and I can say that they look pretty amazing! My lower pole has stretched out nicely and the nipple is sitting right where it should be. They look very soft, youthful and attractive.
SIZE: Although they are technically quite a large implant (the biggest Dr Hanikeri had ever done), they look perfectly proportionate on my tall frame. I was an A cup before, and now I look like a D-DD cup (I measure a little bigger than that in bras). I love the clothing options this augmentation has opened up to me - especially in the lingerie department! My husband and I have had a lot of fun, haha.
FEEL: It was important to me that my breasts feel like breasts, which is why I chose Motiva Ergonomix because you can't get any softer than this type of implant. This is the one area I'm not totally happy with yet. They still feel too firm to me, although my husband says they feel good to him lol. However, I am told and have read that it can take 12 months or more for them to completely soften. And to be honest, even if they don't, I wouldn't go back. I love having proper sized boobs so much!
OVERALL: I'm really pleased that I decided to get a breast augmentation, and that I chose Dr Hanikeri as my surgeon. He is experienced, honest and helpful and has given me an amazing result! I only wish I had gotten them done a decade earlier!
