Dr. Hochstein revision with lift - Miami, FL

For months after my surgery with Dr H I tried so hard to convince myself that my breasts looked great and that I loved them. Truth is-I hated them. I just wasn't ready to face the realization that I would need another surgery...another recovery, another surgical bill, another several weeks of depending on others to take care of all of my responsibilities. Ugh. But I faced the ugly truth finally and dealt with it head on. I found a new doctor whom I couldn't find a negative review on despite calling medical boards and looking over websites for hours! I didn't want another disappointing result. So long story short, I had a pocket revision (breasts were too close) and implant exchange (went to the size I originally asked Dr H for) and I feel like myself again! I feel happy! I love my results and the aftercare I received has been amazing! My new doctor follows up regularly with all his patients and even sees his BA patients once a year, every year for the life of the implant! The guy stands by his work! I guess my lesson and message is this-PAY ATTENTION to negative reviews! They are there because they are real-they really did happen and these people are not just crazy. Also PAY ATTENTION to how a surgeon responds to his patients. Does he say "I'm sorry you are not happy, please call our office and we will be happy to work with you"'or is it more on the defensive side? Is the dr attempting to make others look crazy or dumb to make himself or herself look good? HUGE red flag. RUN! Don't try to convince yourself that you will overlook bedside manner for good results. I made that mistake. Bad bedside manner basically is a medical term for "a**hole". And you don't want an a**hole performing surgery on you or being the one to be in charge of your post op care. Typically their staff is afraid of them too and get nervous when they have to talk to the surgeon so they will try to not have to! So they will attempt to answer your medical questions which of course will be ill advice because they are not doctors or nurses. Also, if you want 350cc and the doctor convinces you that you need more....like a lot more. Run. What they are trying to do is "fill up" your skin. Large implants will give you more problems down the road than smaller ones. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise. If you want and like large breasts that is different. I'm talking to women who want natural looking breasts that fit their frame. That's what I wanted. But I got large breasts instead. Finally-if you are unhappy with your results and you can financially afford to fix it-then do it. I tried to talk myself into believing I liked something I didnt. And that took a toll on me. I am so happy I went ahead and got a revision. I'm also glad I didn't go back to him and have him do it. If anyone wants to message me with any questions please do.

I can FINALLY sleep on my side! Oh it feels so good! It also makes me feel less of a "wounded patient" that I can sleep normally. Still can't sleep on my stomach-that I can do at 6 weeks.
