You look great! How is recovery second time around?
October 22, 2016
Not bad. A little sore by incision, but really not bad at all. Dr. Deane did a great job. I think I'm really getting him now.

Glad to hear you got what you wanted and are finally happy! I've been following your journey as well. It's a lot of $$$ to spend and not be relatively satisfied especially when we don't know how things will look until all is said and done. Hope you have a speedy recovery :)

Thank you, I agree, it is a lot of $$$$.

From these photos, they don't have that high "frankenboob" look at all. So they may not have much dropping to do. They look like a really good size -- definitely not too big. I'm glad you are happier now. I hope recovery goes well for you.

Right? That Frankenboob is not natural at all. I think mine look pretty.

The frankenboob is only temporary. I had it after my surgery, but it's gone now. It happens when the skin / muscle overlying the implant are really tight. That makes some of the implant gel sit very high. Hence the frankenboob look. After a while, the skin / muscle relaxes and the gel slides down to where it should be and frankenboob goes away. If you did not have tight skin / muscle to start with, then you are less likely to have frankenboob. Since this is a revision, perhaps the skin was already stretched by the first implant. So any further stretching will not be as severe as if you had 300cc in the first surgery. You already have a nice natural slope at the top. Over time, I would expect a bit more volume below the nipple.

Dr. Deane Came Through - Beautiful Job!

anon2406654
Revision done. All went well. Got my 300cc. I'm so happy. I got exactly what I wanted, and they still look beautiful and natural. Not big, but not small either. I can go braless or make them bigger with bra. I can dress them up or down. And I know they will still drop and fluff. I am still recovering only few hours. I will post pictures later.

Glad to hear!

Hi - just wondering if Dr. Deane charged you for the revision? IF so how much? I just used him for a tummy tuck and lipo on flanks and i'm positive he didn't do the lipo. So my sides are still fat, not swollen, and i'm not to happy with the result at this point, 4 weeks post op. He said I didn't need lipo but I paid for it and expected to get it. I'm just read your posts and feel the same way you did. I'm frustrated that I now have to wait and possible have a revision. I'm out of money and time.

Revision Coming Up and I'm Riddled with Anxiety

anon2406654
To recap - I had a breast augmentation in May 2016 and was very unhappy. I wanted 300-350 ccs, but my PS gave me only 200 ccs! He said it was all he could fit! I was so upset and angry. I really found it hard to believe that it was all he could fit. I started out with a 34A and ended with a 34B (I still wear the same bras). PS wouldn't even discuss a revision with me until I was 3 months out. Well, I still want a revision and it's 5 months out! It is scheduled for 10/21/16 with same surgeon. I'm really apprehensive about using him again because I feel he will just disappoint me again. I keep saying I want that 300-350 cc's, and he keeps mentioning 250-275 cc's. NOW WHY WOULD I WANT TO GO THROUGH A SECOND SURGERY FOR THAT LITTLE BIT OF A BUMP UP!? When I mentioned something to this effect, he did say "well I think I'll be able to give you 300 ccs, but you want me to be able to close the wound, don't you?" That's where I feel like he is already setting me up for disappointment because he said that the last time too. I feel like he already has it in his head he won't give me that 300 cc or greater!!! He also told me that in his opinion husbands don't like their wives to have big breasts where one would stare at them while out to dinner. I kept listening in disbelief. He then said he wants me to have breasts where no one will notice and that when people speak to me, they will look me in the face, not at my boobs. OMG, first of all, I'm not talking [RS bleep] star boobs here, I want 300-350 ccs! Second of all I'm 58 years old and I want a little VAVOOM for the first time in my life. Also, I want them to be noticed! That's why I'm getting a breast augmentation. I want larger breasts that look bigger in clothes.

Also after researching his work, I came across a few women who he gave 200 cc's to on their first BA and he told them the same thing "it was all that would fit." Personally, I think he is bringing his own opinions about large breasts into the mix. And what really gets me is that 300 cc's is NOT a huge breast size! I think it's okay for a surgeon to use their eye and judgment when operating, but they also must take the patient's goals into consideration as well. The good thing about this surgeon is that I know he is a perfectionist and a good surgeon, I'd just wish he'd find a happy medium of what he wants for me and WHAT I WANT FOR ME. Not to be controlling.

I'm losing sleep over this. I'm not going to back out now, I'm just going to pray for a miracle that he gives me what I'm looking for. I can't afford to lose another $1,900. The first surgery was $9,000. For that much money, shouldn't I get what I want, especially if it is a reasonable request!?

Hi. I honestly think your breasts look great. If you get a bigger size, you will end up sagging especially at your age (no offense, I am 53 myself). Your dream breast pics are from a very young girl. I would say that you were extremely lucky to get the perky beautiful breast you did because if you look at older women with breast implants, they look pretty terrible. I know it is too late to sway you. I hope you will be happy with your larger breasts.

Can you use someone else within the practice? I had a consult with Glickman and we wanted to use 450cc.

If you have this much anxiety, cancel it and find another surgeon. Even if money is not the problem, a second surgery and all the anxiety is not worth it. I have been following your review from the beginning. I remember suggesting that you delay the surgery but you wanted to go ahead because you had a holiday. If this guy is still talking below 300cc and you're not happy, go and get a second opinion. You don't have to have to commit with another surgeon. Just have a chat with them.

I'm seeing a huge red flag after reading your latest post. Please go seek another opinion. Im stunned that he said that about husbands not wanting their wives to have big breasts!! Umm, you are entitled to ask for whatever look you desire (no judgement)! I can tell you that I have a 325/350cc implant aand they hardly gave me 1 1/2 -2 cup size increase. I think that you would be way happier with at least 400+. I believe that he is lying to you about only being able to fit a 200cc implant and is trying to convince you to settle for a small implant the second BA. Most doctors on this site won't even perform a revision for less than 100cc increase. It's practically unnoticeable!!! Go to another doctor and go as big as you want ... you won't regret it. Best of luck!!!

You have GOT to see someone else! This is your money, your downtime, and you, NOT he has to live with the results. I am 5'4 112 lbs and I had 470 cc's with no problem, good luck to you but I too have an issue with him saying the comment about husbands not liking big breasted wives, that is horse $hit for sure!!!

I agree. I think her breasts look beautiful now but if she's not happy and wants to go bigger... there is absolutely no reason that he cannot fit more cc's. I just believe that doctors should practice honesty and not lie to their patients.

It sounds like your doctor has personal problems about women with larger breasts. If you want to be curvier and he is only offering a small increase in size with negative comments about giving you the increase YOU want , go see someone who isn't insecure. We take their professional opinion seriously but if there isn't a medical reason why you can't go larger then it becomes his personal opinion vs yours. Don't just hope for the best. You are too valuable. Go see someone who will work with you and make YOUR dreams come true. Not his. I'm 52, 5'8" 140lbs and love my 500ccs. They are perfect for me! I wish you well!
