Actually on the photo it's the right boob that has the shadow that makes it look a little off, but it isn't! I'm not too good at selfies. lol I will post more when I can!

First I must start by saying this is one the best...

First I must start by saying this is one the best decisions I've ever made! Before having my daughter I was a full C cup, after having my daughter I was a DD and after stopping breast feeding and losing weight I was a very saggy, sad and droopy C. I hated to look at my breast, so an augmentation was always something I wanted to do.

So, I decided to take the leap and found the perfect doctor, who I'll speak more about later, who was only my second consultation and I immediately knew that I'd made the right decision. After speaking with Dr. Bresnick, thankfully I was told I was a good candidate for the circle lift and could easily carry 350cc's and have them look natural so that was what I went to. I tell you, I couldn't wait to be put to sleep so I could wake up with my boobs!

I went in first thing in the morning (I was his first patient of the day) for my procedure approximately a month or so after my first consultation with Dr. Bresnick and surprisingly I wasn't nervous one bit. I knew I was in good hands. After being checked in to the Encino Surgicenter and waiting for the procedure to start the nerves started to kick in a bit. I didn't know what the pain would be like after. I worried about being awake throughout the procedure and the anesthesiologist not knowing (yes, I watch too much tv!) that I could feel every cut and hear everything they were saying. lol But luckily I made it through and awoke what seemed like minutes later in the recovery room with my new boobs that I couldn't yet see and in no pain!

After making it home and into bed with the help of my sister, I still felt just fine. The next morning going in for my first check up, perfectly fine still and day after day and check up after check up (there were a lot which is one of the reasons why I chose Dr. Bresnick) I still felt fine. I didn't experience much pain. I was able to take Tylenol extra strength and everything was perfect!

Fast forward a month or so and one of my breast seemed to hang lower than the other. This was my "problem" breast or should I say the breast that always hung a little lower than the other as there was less elasticity in this breast and I was beyond alarmed. Well, of course being a patient of Dr. Bresnick, I had check up appointment coming up soon and as I sat there on the verge of tears he had no worries what so ever and showed me what to do so that I can help the other breast catch up with the other and after a few months they were darn near mirror images of each other!

In closing, my breast are so awesome! They are not breast that sit on my chest darn near under my chin because that was not what I wanted. I wanted grown woman, full breast with a bit of hang and that is exactly what I got. I go without a bra pretty often (I hope Dr. Bresnick doesn't see this!) and it's so freeing! Whenever I tell someone I have implants they are floored. They are soft and feel amazingly natural. I really and truly couldn't be happier. I would recommend Dr. Bresnick wholeheartedly!

Sorry, I tried to add photos, but every time I uploaded them they were upside down...very weird!

Hi, did you get textured or smooth implant?
Hello! I got the smooth implants and they are perfect! :)
Thanks! My pre op with him is 10/27 and surgery 11/20. Can wait, he is very nice!
Oh cool! A day before my birthday! You are going to be so very very happy! Let me know how it goes. :)

Thanks for sharing your story with this community. I'm sorry to hear about your photos. Just so you know, there's a glitch on the RealSelf site that makes the photos appear upside down when loading, but once they load they're right-side-up. Annoying, I know, but I hope you'll try uploading them again. Let me know if I can help!

Thank you! I will try again shortly. :)
will do. My sister-in law just had hers with him last week. So far so good :)
look awesome! Same as you, I wanted natural mature looking breasts and I am so happy with my results. I need to update my pics, but I am 10 weeks out. LOVE Dr Bresnick. very happy with everything.
