WORTH IT
After having breast implants for 15 years, I started exploring my options. I wasn’t sure if I wanted to keep them, downsize, or remove them altogether—and I wanted to find a surgeon who would listen, not pressure. I went to a few consultations, and while one surgeon told me I needed to replace them immediately because they were over 10 years old (and left me feeling guilty for keeping them this long), another suggested a “wait and see” approach with smaller implants first. Still, I felt uncertain.

Then I met Dr. Dumestre, and everything changed. From the moment she sat down with me, I felt completely at ease. I told her I wasn’t sure what I wanted, and instead of pushing a solution on me, she actually listened. She suggested removing the implants to see how my skin retracts and how much breast tissue I have, and then re-evaluating later—possibly doing a lift or even some fat grafting, if needed. She truly respected that this is a personal decision that sometimes takes time.

When I expressed concern about the cost of potentially paying for anesthesia again later if I chose to have implants put back in, she explained that she does many implant removals in-office under local anesthesia. Knowing I could avoid another OR fee sealed the deal for me. That option made me feel empowered, not pressured.

Dr. Dumestre is compassionate, honest, and thoughtful. I’m so thankful I found her. She helped me feel confident in my decision—not just about my body, but about trusting the process. If you’re looking for a surgeon who listens and tailors a plan to your unique goals, I cannot recommend her highly enough.
