How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

8 months

It's been 8 months since my breast augmentation. I like how my breasts look natural, however I wanted them bigger with a little more upper pole fullness.
So I've scheduled for an exchange. They charge $2500 less than the original procedure. I have my pre-op Dec 28th to go over sizes and the procedure is scheduled for Jan 31st.

17 days postop

I feel great. I went back to work at 11 days postop. I'm a nurse and I told my staff I can't do any lifting. That first day back wad really tough, I had dinosaur arms, but each day is better. I'm still not lifting patients. But I'm able to put my arms above my head. The zingers or nerve pain is gone, thank goodness. I'm just really sensitive on the underside of my breasts. I'm still massaging them like the Dr showed me to help them drop. Still sitting high. I've been using Mederma Advanced Scar Gel twice daily. But overall I'm happy with the results. Just want them to drop and "fluff".

First few days

The first 4 days after have been okay. I haven't needed any strong pain medication, and I'm very thankful for that. The day after surgery, I had an appt and the surgical tech took off the wrap and I felt so much relief. We went over massage techniques and things to do and not do. I showered on day 2 and it felt good. The biggest thing for me has been sleeping elevated. My back has been bothering me. I'm still icing my breasts for 20 min on/off. And doing the massages 3 times a day. I drove today, day 5 and everything was okay. The incisions have mild bruising and can get very itchy at times.

I love Dr Messa! He's a wonderful physician and has a great bedside manner. From the first time I met him, to surgery and beyond, he has a calming demeanor and is a person you can trust wholeheartedly. I chose Dr Messa because I've had friends and family use him and said nothing less of him. He made me feel very comfortable and answered all my questions during my consultation i was concerned about. I would recommend him to all friends and family.
