Highly Recommended! Fat Transfer to Breasts + Scar Revision with Dr. Bednar - Charlotte, NC

UPDATED FROM callthedoc
1 month post

1 Month Post-Op: Still feeling great about my results!

WORTH IT$11,450
I am now at 35 inches bust line and 30 inched band line so between a D-DD cup. 38 Inches around the breasts. So far the initial hardness from the fat transfer is now gone, and my breasts feel softer and natural. I am looking forward to some light work out at the gym. Not all my lipo areas are fully recovered, so I am doing massages in the meantime. Now just hoping the nest 60 days will hold in shape. What do you think? Thank you very much for all your comments!

What a fantastic job, you would never in a million years know that's the ladies were not created naturally. Congrats and enjoy, after the pain you deserve it.
Thank you! You mention something very important. Regardless of size, the natural look was at the top of my priorities, and definetely worth the pain :)
You look fantastic! Totally natural!
Thank you ver much! I hope my pics inspire others to consider fat transfer before implants.
Wow, they look amazing! I can't wait for my procedure.
Thanks. I wish you the best results!
Please update with a 3month and 6 month 1yr sizing. I really wanna see if it lasts. ANY YOU LOOK GLORIOUS!
Thanks. That is what I am planing to do. Check back later.

Also Did you mention was the fat administered by needles (injections thru out, many injections in many spots) or like in a few injections in less spots?
never the mind.. i found it in your comments to another person.. did you have a mammogram 1st?
The fat was injected from one insicion per breast, tiny actually (about 2mm) each. They are on the lower part of the breasts and should heal to a tiny dot eventually :)
Yes. Was not necessary but I wanted to be sure there were no issues of any kind pre-op. It is not necessary, I mean an ultrasound may be enough, but this (although painfull) was my personal preference before the surgery.
They look beautiful.....

When choosing the right cosmetic surgery doctor,...

When choosing the right cosmetic surgery doctor, specially when you are not only out-of-town, but you also live overseas, a lot of research and planning goes into finding the best provider. My husband and I feel that the effort has paid off. Dr. Bednar and his team truly care about their patients, and that showed from the moment we contacted his office. From his very nice assistant Sylvia, who did a great job communicating with us, and answering any initial questions we had, to talking to Dr. Bednar directly over a Skype consultation, we were pleased to confirm that w1e have done the right choice for these procedures. After arriving in Charlotte for the pre-op, we had the pleasure to meet Ashley C. Now, one word describes this nurse: awesome! She is a person who really loves taking care of others, she is a natural, and truly loves her job. Looking forward to the surgery that took place 2 days after, everything went extremely well, and Dr. Bednar was very pleased on how the procedures turned out. That was exciting news for us, knowing that he is a perfectionist. The results are amazing! His artistic background is very visible, and their support for patients in undeniable. If we ever had any questions, doubts about instructions, or anything pertaining to the procedures, Dr. Bednar, Sylvia or Ashley were always there. And for us, that is priceless. I highly recommend Dr. Bednar for the natural approach that involves fat transfers. This is his passion, and you won't be disappointment. I am so happy with the results, and I do look forward to the future. I was a 34C, and I am 2 Cups Up now. Congratulations if you are searching for the right doctor. You have found him!

Wow! You look amazing! I had a consult with Dr. B and want to schedule for June. I am certain this is the right choice now. How many cc's did he put in? Did he put in the fat using one incision or multiple in the breast? I am really worried about the lipo recovery. how did it go for you? Congratulations on your successful outcome, just gorgeous!
Thanks for your comment, I am glad you have decided to go with this great doctor. He put 680cc on the smaller one and then he matched the other (not sure how much). He made only one incision on each, which was great since they were very small. The lipo is the worst part of the recovery but if he does not need to do your legs you will be alright. Thanks!
You look gorgeous, congrats! How do you like the results in your face? Are you willing to post any photos? I'd be so curious to see.
Hmmm... Not you what referr to about my face, but I feel great so far. Thanks for your comment!
I did nothing to my face so not sure what you referr to. Anyways, thanks fo ryour comment.
Hi I was wondering how you are doing now and if you are able to do exercise yet and how you feel about your results?
Now i feel great to star excersising soon, maybe as early as next week, so about 1 month post-op. The worst part of the recovery has been the lipo, specifically on the legs area. Thanks for asking and for your comment.
Thanks for sharing it there is not a ton of information out there on this and it is such a big decision. Do you feel like the lipo will take you down a size and that you can see results in your lower body?
I am planning to start to work out a bit from next week. My results still holding after fist month but with softer breasts.
Yes, the results of the lipo are very visible now after 1 month. I love my new shape!
Were you able to retain what was in your breasts in your last picture?
Not all of it, but I think that with the hardness leaving so did some of the fat. Still they look full and a lot more natural now. I updated the pic. Take a look and thanks for following.
wow, You look amazing. I am from Sydney, Australia and will be flying 21 hours overseas for this doctor. The exchange rate is tremendous .. something that is $13,500 is US is $18,100 AU currency., so I am investing alot of money in this and i am worried however i know i am in good hands. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful story, you look amazing. God Bless you X
Thank you very much for your comment! I can tell you that the investment is trully worth it. I look forward to read your review.
