I went in for a basic lift and implant. Dr Struck was not professional in my eyes. He talked me into much larger implants than I wanted and now they sag. The picture above looks good but looks good but I can assure you that I had great breasts and the scars he left up my boobs are scary., His follow up was terrible too. He dismissed my concerns and said to wait and Im still waiting. Another Dr. has repaired the awful scars finally but there was only so much he could do. I had been in again and again and that picture looks just like his employee.

I am 9 weeks po and I went to the Dominican for my breast lift and Tummy tuck. I had planned on getting a breast lift with a small augmentation and my Dr told me she did not recommend that I get augmentation. She said my breast skin was stretched out and I had very little elasticity left and if I got the implant, It would weigh me down and I would be in the same situation within a year. She said I had enough good tissue and I would be happier with out the implant. The only bad thing is you loose a size in your breast. I was a D and now I'm a full C. I am happy now, that I went with her recommendation. I am sorry you are having trouble.

Thank you for sharing your story on RealSelf despite your disappointment. This must be frustrating for you. What was your original bra size and how many cc's did you end up getting? Glad you were able to get some repair work done on the scars. Did this surgeon suggest any other revision for your breasts? We'll watch for your photos. Take care!

Dr. Struck did a tummy tuck with me and I was unhappy. I paid for a revision surgery and don't think he did a thing to fix the dog ears and my scar is horrific. He kept saying,. "give it time" to me as well. So sad.
