WORTH IT
I had my breasts done last Dec. by Dr. Leonard Hochstien, it was a terrible experience, I will refrain from being negative,I will just stick to the facts. I got C.C, double bubble, deformed nipple & way too much scar tissue, they looked insane, it was a painful mess. It is common knowledge here in Boston that Dr. Slavin is the best, I just made a bad choice by not seeing him originally. He fixed everything! He is the nicest doctor that I have ever met, staff was outstanding, and the hospital... As a Bostonian I am a hospital snob (we expect everything, because we have the best hospitals). Dr. Slavin did my revision at Beth Israel, I can not even tell you how amazing. I look incredible!!! I am out of pain, really unbelievable! Just going to Dr, Slavin's office is great, you always chat with the other ladies in the waiting room, it's so nice & inviting. I always leave there happy, even when I felt so hopeless waiting there my 1st time, I left so confident. Everyone looks spectacular, even if they are just there for injections. I saw the most perfect facelift patient waiting with me yesterday ( my follow-up). I really did not know a doctor could be capable of making a facelift so perfect, she was not overdone, just flawless.
My breasts look so real & feel fantastic, he did everything I wanted & more. It was no easy fix, I still can't believe how great they are after the mess I had.

dylankelly, you are so fortunate to have had your revision by the outstanding Dr Slavin! If anyone can help it would be him. Best of luck and hope you heal swiftly!
auntiel, you are in extremely good hands with Dr Slavin. I am 2 weeks PO and could not be happier with my surgeon and results! I had a BR/BL. Here in Boston and surrounding areas, he's considered EXCEPTIONAL and held in the highest of regards both by patients and his peers! He's the only surgeon I would ever consider should I ever need anything else. He's truly the BEST in his field!
Best of luck auntiel ( I messaged you check your inbox)

Oh I know!!!! I thank God, I do. I am so grateful, I really am. To say he helped is not enough, he is a Super-Star. I love that you posted this & thank you for responding, because it is the truth, I just can't get over what he did for me. I just wanted to be out of pain. I got a million times more than that, I look like a celebrity & feel spectacular!

Thank you so much. Although I feel he is the best of the best it is comforting to hear from you. I am scheduled for Nov 30th so counting the days! If you don't mind answering a question, I am s little confused whether to buy a surgical bra or just what kind to buy ( I know no underwire) anything else you could recommend me to have on hand?

I was confused by that as well, I actually posted about it on here. It was just a small miscommunication, I left the hospital w/ a surgical bra!
This was my second breast surgery in 10 Months, I did not want to do or use anything from the first surgery, didn't want the bad ju ju. I just bought antibacterial soap for before & after. Scar Away ( read great things about it, got it on Amazon), I used Biocorneum for the scars after the first surgery, scars had to be surgically repaired this time. Dr. Slavin said that I could wear an underwire bra, I bought the incredible sports bra from Victoria's Secret. Love it, it has a soft underwire & is perfect. Just make sure you have button up tops and have the things that you use reachable. I almost forgot, I was very constipated this time, stool sofner w/ laxative was not helping. A friend recommended (this is very funny) Smooth Move herbal tea, haha. Whole foods has it $4.99 purple box, really works.
I should also tell you, this revision was not as painful as the original surgery. I am amazed by this because Dr. Slavin had so much work to do, I feel great. You will even better than me!!!

DrH botched me as well . I can't understand why people think he's a magician . I have so much revision work to be done .
So glad to hear you revision went well! Did you get a different type and size implant along with your repairs? Hoping you'll share a picture with us soon. Keep us posted as you continue to heal!
Even before my first implants caused problems that were obvious-I had pain immediately, what we refer to on this site as "morning boob". That was gone immediately after Dr. Slavin preformed his miracle on me. I am 3 weeks out and still can't believe how fantastic everything is.
I am not leaving a thing out when I say "everything", my breasts are dynamite!!!!
Oh, that's so inspiring to hear. I'm glad you forged forward with your revision. Once you heal, you can really enjoy your results!
