ORIGINAL POST

So I had a reduction in 2007.... I had one child and my breast was a size 36ddd. Now I have three kids and they are a small C cup and a title saggy. I had two consultations. One at Strax which they are going to give me a full lift and implants. I am so worried about getting the same scars cut open again.
The next consultation was with the doc that did the reduction. I feel so comfortable with him and his staff. He is charging a little more and only suggest a partial lift because I am not that saggy. So at this point I don't know what to do. The previous ps had about two bad review and a hand full of good one. Obviously he ain't as busy as Strax. The doc at Strax had al great reviews and is cheaper! Please help me decided. I don't want to loose my date because my job already approved my time of for those dates?

Is there any chance you could get one more doctor consult to help your decision become more clear? It really sounds like you need a doctor who specializes in lifts. Here is a group of women that recently got their breast lifts with implants this September/October. They might be able to provide you with additional feedback. It would be really helpful if you could post some pictures too. Please keep us posted!

I actually had a consultation a few years ago with another doctor and he said the same thing. That I need a full lift. So I decided to go with Dr Bass at Strax... I found some reviews on this sight about him that helped. But not to many breast lifts/augmentations

I am trying to find anyone that had surgery with Dr Bass at Strax in Ft lauderdale! Can you help me?

There are several reviews on Dr. Bass's page on RealSelf, but as you mentioned, I didn't see any breast lift/augmentation reviews.

Changed my Doctor

Previously I was gonna let Dr Bass at Strax do my procedure.. Why he was cheaper and putting me completely under anesthesia.... But then I went to Dr Phillips and he would remove my scar (he did my reduction) instead of a full lift and cutting me in a anchor incision again... He will go through the nipple.. My breast are not that saggy... He gave me a discount (previous patient) and he didnt rush me like strax did.. I had a list of questions and he took his time and answered each one... He made me feel at home. Plus I have been in his care before, referred patients to him and he did a great job.
My only worries now is saline or silicone???
And hoping I don't wake up in the middle of surgery... Twilight!
But I am ready... 8 more weeks. Hubby is excited also.
