Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.      
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.

I got a mommy makeover last month, but I only wanted to do a review for my BA. Just like most women, I was so concerned with size. I am 5'4, 115 lbs, and my ribcage is 28. I kept going back and forth between 275 cc and 300 cc. I wanted the most natural look and did not want to look "done." With that being said, at the same time, I didn't want to regret getting something so small that I would wonder why I even had the procedure done! All of my friends who have gone through this surgery told me I would have "boob greed" and to get the 300 cc. At the end, I just trusted my surgeon with the final decision. After hearing what I wanted to achieve from the surgery, my PS chose the 275 cc moderate profile and it is PERFECT. If you are smaller and want to look VERY NATURAL and not "done," do not fear of going smaller than bigger. I like the fact that I can "dress" it up with a push-up bra if I want to but do not look huge all the time. If you are petite, don't be pressured into going bigger! Going smaller was the best decision for me!

First off, let me say that my husband is a surgeon and has worked with many doctors in the past. Ever since I decided I wanted to get a mommy makeover, he would say, "There is only one doctor I would let you get this procedure with. I have seen his work and he is soooo good at what he does." That would be Dr. Kobayashi. Just like my husband said, he is AMAZING!!!! I felt right at ease the moment I met him, the surgery and post op went as smooth as could be, and the results are unbelievable! On the scale from 1 to 10, I would rate this whole experience and results a 10 and would do it all over again in a heartbeat. If you are looking to get a mommy makeover or any other procedure, I would whole heartedly tell you to go get a consult with Dr. Kobayashi. He is the best at what he does! Don't take my word for it, take my husband's word for it (and he is a surgeon himself!!!) Oh, and I'm kind of shy so don't know if I will post any pictures of me, but if you look at his other review, my after looks very similar to the other reviewer (except I got a smaller cc for my BA). He has the "eye" for a PS and wants to make every person look amazing at the end. I can't say enough about him as a person and surgeon.
