Almost a year post-op
I did talk to Dr Salemy about my concerns. He was very apologetic about how I felt right before & after the surgery. He also acknowledged that one areola was larger and could be fixed. Actually at almost a year post-op, they look more symmetrical though left is still a bit bigger. My vertical scars are pretty light but under my left breast there is a part that is still pretty dark. There is one area where the scar is larger and still dark. Because I had a reduction on the left breast, the scars extend further. Overall, I am satisfied with the results. I lost a lot of weight over the past year so my breasts are smaller and I don’t have “upper pole” fullness. I am still considering whether to get small implants to even them out even more and add fullness to the top areas but we’ll see.
Breast reduction and lift
I had surgery with Dr Salemy on 4/20 to correct the size difference between my breasts and lift them back up where they belong. I am about 5 weeks out and recovery has really been a breeze. He told me at my first post op check in that he removed as much as he could from the left breast but it was still slightly larger. Initially I was very happy with my results but as the weeks go by, I'm not so sure. I really don't understand why he couldn't take more from the left side. I have seen some very dramatic reductions and mine was pretty minimal. I didn't need any drains which I am thankful for but at the same time seems to suggest that more could have been done. I wouldn't really care about the still existing size difference because it is a big improvement to what it was. The thing is, my nipple on the left side is noticeably larger than the right. That really doesn't make sense to me since he was creating a new size anyway and could have made them match better. I read a lot of reviews of Dr Salemy saying how great his bedside manner is and how personable and caring he is. I did not have enough time with him to be able to witness that. My pre-op and post- op visits with him were very short (about 10 minutes) and he didn't follow up with a call to me a week later as he told me he would. Instead, I met with his nurse. The nurses were very nice and answered my questions but I felt neglected by the doctor. In general, it seems like he breezed through my surgery and didn't give it or me much thought. I have my six week check in soon; maybe it will be different then.
