My first anniversary is here!

WORTH IT$8,250
Can’t believe it’s been a year since I had me breast implant! Very happy with my results and so far one of the best decisions I ever made! I feel so confident and comfortable in my body now and I am really happy. They feel so natural and look so natural as well and no one can really tell I have implants unless I tell them about it! Dr Geldner is such a great doctor and I am so happy that I chose him. He did such a great job. I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to do breast implant in Chicago land.

I did my breast implants and nipple reduction with dr Geldner and I should say I am sooooo happy with my results. I had different consultations before dr Geldner and all of them left me in uncertainty and I really couldn't trust any of those doctors. I found dr Geldner from realself website and his patients reviews. I looked at his website and photo gallery and I was really impressed. I was looking for a natural look and not any fake ugly breast. In his reviews on yelp I noticed that people mentioned he has an attitude, first of all he doesn't! He is a a very easygoing and nice person. Second I don't really care!! You are not going to marry your doctor! As long as you feel comfortable and you know he is a professional certified doctor that is what matters! At least for me. At the first moment that I had my consultation with him I noticed he is so honest about the results and what I should expect and also he knows what I am looking for. We did the 3D photo of my breast and I should tell you the outcome was really close to those pictures. I scheduled my proceeder with him. I had one other appointment before surgery and I trusted his judgment for choosing implant size. The surgery day was very easy and good. They did the surgery at 900 n Michigan ave surgical center. I was very happy about everything and I had no problems. Day after I had another appointment with dr Geldner and I should tell as soon as he opened the bandages and asked me to look in the mirror I was speechless! It was way much better than what I expected and he did absolutely a great job! I was so afraid specially about my nipples. But he did absolutely a great job on them. They look very natural and beautiful and also the scars are really nothing and even I can't find them on my nipples. My sensation is totally fine which I was ready to loose them on my nipples but it didn't happen. If you are looking for a certified, experienced and knowledgeable doctor to easily trust he is the one. You should absolutely have a consultation with him. I really appreciate his work and want to say thank you for doing such a great art work for me.

Wow! Your surgeon did do a great job. How is the squish/bounce - natural? Can you post a video update too?
They feel very natural as well, barely I feel the implants insyit when I touch. I will try to post a video as well because it was one of my concerns as well before the surgery because I didn’t know how it’s going to feel after the implants
Thank you. It is one of my biggest concern and certainly isn't addressed enough in general.
You look great! Can I ask, are your implants round or teardrop and are they under or over the muscle?
ORIGINAL POST

I was thinking about doing it for a long time,...

I was thinking about doing it for a long time, finally I decided to it. And I should say so far it was one of my decisions ever! I always wanted fuller breast. I had the tissue but it was very empty and soft. My biggest concern was if i can have a natural look. I didn't want any fake looking breast. Also I always had big nipples which was not muly favorite. So I decided to do it both at the same time. I looked alot and went to several consultations but at the end I choose dr Geldner. He was the most honest and realistic dr that I met. He talked about all the possibilities and also he would just makes my nipples smaller in the length and not the diameter because it will look bad( even though the other doctor told me will do it and no problem) I was so wondering about the size of implants my right side breast was 20cc bigger than the left side, so we decided at 310cc for the left side and 195cc for the right side. But I told him if he decided to go smaller or bigger he can do it and he makes the final decision. The procedure was so fast and easy. I was in operation room at 7 am and at home 11am! No problem about nausea and other complications. Next day I went for my first check. When he opened the bandage and asked me to look in the mirror I was speechless! They looked absolutely beautiful! It was nothing like a breast implant in the second day! They looked so natural as I wanted. I am still in recovery time but they are looking better every day and I am really happy with my results!

Looking great!
You look great!
Can you tell me what other doctors you saw and what you didn’t like about them? And also can you pls share more current pictures? I went to one consultation and am kind of iffy about it. So any advice would be appreciated. Oh and what were your stats?
the other doctors were not honest about the procedure and also one of them didn’t even spend 15 min talking to me about what I want! I would tell you go and have different consultations and read about this more from people experiences and be realistic about what you want and the results. I would say if you are wondering to do it, do it! For me it was one of the best decisions ever. I feel so comfortable in my body and so confident now.I am regret it why I didn’t do it 10 years ago!
Will you be posting an updates? Curious how things are going.
I just added an update
Can you tell me how are you doing and how’s it going with your boobies today? Many years later? Are you still happy?
Can you tell me what recovery was like? How long until you felt like you again? Weeks? Months? Would 12 days be enough time to safely take off work for recovery? Sorry so many questions..
