I got this surgery because I have ALWAYS been flat...

WORTH IT$5,800
I got this surgery because I have ALWAYS been flat and extremely self conscious about it. I had thought about this surgery for years before I actually got up the nerve to get the surgery done, but it is one of the best decisions I have made! I researched tons and tons of doctors and clinics before finally finding one I loved! I originally had chosen a different surgeon and just went on another consult because i had a few doubts about the one I chose. Soooo glad I went on the other consult because that is the surgeon I ended up going with and I am so happy!!

My doctor was amazing!! He was extremely professional and made me feel very comfortable at my consult and pre-op appointments. He has an entire wall full of awards and accomplishments and has also published in journals and taught many classes as a guest at different universities. On my day of surgery I was pretty nervous because I have never had surgery before, he came in and made a few jokes that completely put me at ease. He looked at all my "wish-list" pictures and listened intently to all my concerns and answered my billion questions! The night of surgery I called his answering service with a few questions at 10pm, they told me it would be about a half hour before I got a call back (it was not an emergency), he literally called me in less than a minute! I was very impressed. He is a great doctor and I love my results! I would highly recommend him to anyone thinking about having a breast augmentation.

I always suggest getting more than one doctor consult. So glad your research paid off. What type and size implants did you get? We'd love to see any pictures you're comfortable sharing...even your wish boob pictures. Congratulations!
I ended up getting 379cc under the muscle moderate profile implants! I will share a picture once they settle more!!!
How is your recovery going? Feel free to share helpful pictures of your healing progress too! 
Thanks for taking the time to write a review! I have a wonderful office, nursing, and anesthesia staff that allow me to do what I do--they are the real backbone of my practice and I hope I provide a good example of how I want them to care for our patients! Cheers! Dr. Tholen
