Pocket Repair/Implant Removal and Replacement
I had a prior BA done 3 years ago by a different doctor and had 320cc saline implants filled to 350cc I came out with 32DD. About 6months after the surgery my implants looked much different then I felt they should. It turns out they had bottomed out and ruptured through the pocket. My nipples ended up being up too high and my scars were very visible instead of hidden in the crease. Also when I laid down they created a very large gap on my chest and went running for the armpits. Needless to say I didn't feel like a very sexy confident woman in a bikini as I had hoped I would be.
So when I had the money ready for a second surgery I looked hard to find the best doctor out there and I came across Dr. Tholen on Real Self and the things he had written about women and breast implants sold me immediately that he was the one I wanted to fix my breasts. I now have 650cc silicone implants which have given me size 32DDD for a bra. I am only 5 weeks from surgery but they look so amazing already. The feel is so much better than saline, they look beautiful and natural and even though 650 may sound really big it looks just perfect on my 5'5'' 120lb frame.

Provider Review
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
4825 Olson Memorial Hwy., Minneapolis, Minnesota
Dr. Tholen really exceeded all the expectations I had for a plastic surgeon, he was very attentive to my needs and made sure I was fully informed on what it was I wanted. He actually sees you more than just once after your surgery to keep an eye on progress. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for a great plastic surgeon.
