23 Year Old: Barely A to Full C/Small D Breast Augmentation and Liposuction of the Abdomen - Burbank, CA

I have always been a “thicker” girl. Larger...
WORTH IT$10,213
I have always been a “thicker” girl. Larger thighs, larger butt and just wanted the breasts to match.
When I was a freshman in high school I had a growth spurt, the rest of my body developed and my breasts matched those of an 11 year old boy. Fabulous. Needless to say, this breast augmentation was a long time coming.
I did a lot of research over the past few years for doctors in the area, looking through their galleries, and scheduling consultations. After meeting with Dr. Vartany, I knew he was the surgeon I wanted to perform my surgery. The “vibe” of this office is like family, everyone genuinely cares for each other and you can feel that when you come in. Dr. V is not only a phenomenal surgeon but one of the kindest men I have come to know.
I had the pleasure of being assisted by Elvia (the surgical tech), Lynette (the recovery nurse), and Dr. Olea (the anesthesiologist), such a fantastic team.
I had my surgery September 11, 2015 so it has been almost exactly 2 months since my surgery and I am beyond thrilled.
My surgery took place on a Friday and I was back to work on Tuesday. My recovery went so smoothly, I took my pain medication for about 3 days after surgery and that was it! In hindsight I could have, in fact, SHOULD have switched to regular Tylenol after the second day.
One thing I would recommend for anyone that is sensitive to nausea, request a prescription for a scopolamine patch or something to combat nausea prior to surgery. That helped me a lot, along with listening to my body and eating a little something every time I needed a pain pill.
In addition to my breast augmentation I also had liposuction of the abdomen. I had never considered lipo before but I had always had a stubborn “band” of fat on my lower stomach. Dr. V advised me there would be a slight improvement if I decided to do it and I am SO glad that I did! That “slight” improvement makes ALL the difference, he did a beautiful job! I obviously still need to tone up to get the stomach I want, but this is night and day difference for me already! I can now wear more fitted shirts and dresses without that extra little bump present. Next stop, the gym!

Implant size
I decided to go with 492cc silicone medium profile implants.
Congratulations! It sounds like all your research paid off with great results! Which area was more sore, your lower stomach or your breasts? Thank you for sharing your story and pictures with us. You look great!
I would say my abdomen was more sore to be honest! I felt a lot of pressure on my chest but not as much pain. The liposuction seemed to be more sore/painful. But overall a speedy recovery!
I have been hearing more often that the lipo area can be more sore than the breasts...so it's not uncommon. Looking forward to more future pictures and updates!
Very happy!!
