This guy is good. Really good. I had a breast...

WORTH IT$2,900
This guy is good. Really good. I had a breast implant removal, with implants put in by a different surgeon 16 years prior, and I must say, without reservation, that Dr. Stagnone does amazingly good work. His stitching is beautiful. He also made me feel very comfortable each time I say him, and on the operating table he told me everything he was doing, and we also talked about cool stuff too, hobbies, etc...I will definitely choose Dr. Stagnone again for anything else I need done! His office staff is very professional and made me feel comfortable, answered any questions I had, and were right one with everything. Thanks Valerie!

Hi there! I actually used him to get my implants 16 years ago and I'm thinking about removing them and not replacing. How has your fluffing been? Do you think your the same size you were before? Need guidance...... Kind of scared on what to do.....extremely torn.
How much did the removal cost

Thank you for your posts but I cannot see pictures. Would like to since I'm also doing an explant. No lift

Ok, got the stitches out yesterday...here are a few pics from today. Sorry for the bad pic quality! Have been using some silicone strips over the scars and am supposed to for at least 6-8 weeks, or until I see the improvement I want. Quit wearing the compression bandage too. The nurse said after 2 weeks there really it doesn't need to be worn anymore. Also doing massage with coconut oil.

Congratulations! They are continuing to improve more each time you post new photos. Can I ask, what size implants you had? How many CC's?
Thanks so much! Left one was 475, right one 425.
I'll also post new pics weekly to show progress.
I would live to see pictures of your progress and I truly appreciate it. I am very nervous about posting any pictures because I'm a teacher. I almost feel selfish about it but I work for a very conservative state facility.
How would they know though? Eek maybe I should take mine down (nervous)
There was one woman who took her photos down because she worked for a prominent company. I don't remember what that company was but they figured out that it was her, reprimanded her and told her to take them down.
Very inspiring as I can also see the progress and your body getting back to it's natural state. It gives me hope! :)

I didn't mean to scare you. I think that the woman I was telling you about had said something or posted a picture that clearly showed who she was.
☹️ what am I doing wrong, not seeing your pictures. I see other ones, just not yours

Compression, water, vitamins and collagen working well I think.

I think they look really good! Can I ask you which vitamins and collagen you are using? Im trying to prepare for my removal in a month. thanks
for collagen using Lindberg Skin Rejuvenator with Verisol, Nature Made Multivitamin, Nature Made Vitamin C, Nature's Bounty Biotin, and Fish Oil. All can be found at Walgreens. The collagen can be found online and I think was around the $15.00 range. Hope this helps! One thing I've noticed as the skin is in process of retracting back, is that sometimes I take the bandages off and they look great, then the next time they look not so good, then the next time they look better than they looked great before, etc., etc., so it's just the skin reshaping itself and stuff so don't get discouraged...mine have come a long way in just 10 days. Hope this helps! Keep me posted : )
Thank you so much. I'm going to check them out
