No. I wish he would have overfilled my implant like most surgeons do...my implant fill range was 700-750 and he only filled to 720:(

Who did you end up choosing for your 2nd ba? I'm having a revision due to capsular contracture your results are amazing! I have a consult with dr calobrace in March I live in ohio but I've heard he is amazing with dealing with cc revisions and I've had 3 surgeries on my left breast the one with cc I've had a few complications on that side and just want another surgeon. If you don't mind me asking what are your stats? And how did you like dr calobrace?

Just saw your stats above sorry we are very close in stats!

Hey! Dr calobrace is very skilled and up to date with his procedures. ..that being said he runs a very busy practice. ..i kno a few girls who had their BA's there and we all have felt a bit like a product on an assembly line... its like boom boom boom...ur done. Be prepared to wait a while to see him.. only to see him/ get questions answered very briefly. I chose Dr Dubou to do my revision.
February 4, 2016
Thank you for you feedback I will make sure I have my list of questions I want answered. I just have read that he performs lots of revisions for cc and I want someone that is very knowledgeable my surgeon was not when he did my revision in October for cc. I have to drive pretty far to see him so if he's short I may go elsewhere I want to feel confident in the surgeon i choose. Did he suggest textured because they have less chance of cc reoccurance? I don't really think I want textured either. Also did your surgeon you chose put in strattice and did you have drains? I've done so much research I don't want to explanat but I worry I could go through all of this again and it just come back! You have amazing results and I'm glad so far you don't have any signs of capsular contracture.

Goodluck! Yes he suggested textured he said it woul help prevent the implants from displacing lateraly or 'bottoming out '. Thanks for the compliment:)
I couldn't afford strattice...maybe that woul have given them a more lifted look tho! No he didnt use drains. FYI this was a much longer more painful recovery than my first BA...i went back to work 2 wks later...n it was still uncomfortable.

I just looked at ur review...and ur breasts lool great! Are u having the revision bc u dnt like the feel of the contractures one? It looks like u have a great result!!

They are very uneven they just keep getting worse my left one is a lot higher than the right now and it's hard as a rock and painful on the top part of my breast. My ps also put my creases in different spots so I think that could be the cause of it not dropping also. I did have a great result at first but then all of a sudden it crept back up high. This one has been a longer recovery for me I'm 16 weeks post op and it's still painful on my left side but I think that's due to the cc coming back. I hear strattice is very expensive that's one of my worries but I do not want to go through this again so I'm willing to wait it out until i have enough to cover the costs this will be my 4th surgery on the left side. I'm so glad your cc hasn't returned that really gives me hope that all my issues will eventually be gone!

Thank u!! I keep a sports bra on pretty much 24/7 to try to prevent and lateral displacement and continue to take my singulair and vit E daily to try to prevent CC.... fingers crossed! !!!
February 18, 2016
Thanks for sharing!!!!! I'm debating from 700cc-750cc and you are much smaller than me so when I lose the rest of my weight you have like my wish body. Again thanks for sharing. It's hard to find 700cc-800cc implant sizes.

You look great! Do you feel like they run or fit a bit tighter than most sports bra? I saw some at the UA store but some only went up to a DD or an XL. I have issues with the bigger size not supporting at all.

Thx! Yes i kno... i think under armour provides the best support. ..and the strap below my breasts doesn't ride up over them like some do with vigorous activity
