Mentor Memory Boost 775cc

Dr Lintner was great and his staff is very welcoming. He was highly recommended by a close friend but I did my research and consulted with a few other top rated Drs in the area and he was the only Dr that really connected with me and my goals. Some of the offices I met with were very stuffy and I felt like they were trying to keep up with the Kardashian styled clientele instead of normal people that need surgery. I had a breast revision, a lift revision and a full tummy tuck with lipo. I’m now 4 weeks out and after reading so many other reviews about the “ mommy makeover” and friends telling me their tummy tuck “was the best money they ever spent” it was probably the most painful & miserable surgery ever ! While I’m sure my final results will be fabulous and I’m happy with the results all I could think about were the reviews and info online saying that your pain would be gone by week 2…. And you could start living normal again besides swelling and tenderness, that was not the case it was a good 3.5-4 weeks before I somewhat felt human again. I’m still having some muscle pain from the stomach repair but it’s tolerable. The Drs office has been so good at responding to my concerns and questions and continued to reassure me that what I was experiencing was normal and then after talking with a few other people about having the same surgery they let me know that they also had a very similar recovery and really the 4 week mark was their turning point. Needless to say I’m glad to get to that point and look forward to the next 2 months when things really start to look great. My incisions have looked great since the beginning but I have had a lot of bruising and finally most of it’s gone. My lift incisions are so much better than my prior lift surgery and my breasts are full and round and will soon be amazing after a little more healing. This is my 4 set of implants - 23 years ago I had them to correct saggy breasts that did not come back after 2 breast fed babies - those implants ended with capsular contractures in the 1st year. The second set lasted nearly 14 years but I was having some “snoopy droop” and needed a lift - so 7 years ago I had a lift and swap but the dr went over the muscle and my incisions were not great nor were the shape of my areoles and I had some displacement of the implants due to size and nothing supporting them(745cc). The new lift and implant is so much tighter and fuller with a better projection under the muscle. The dr went with a Mentor memory gel boost high profile 775cc , he also did a dissolvable mesh inner support bra to help them settle into place while having support during healing.

Overall I’m very pleased with the breast surgery.

I didn’t hate my stomach before surgery but there was a small roll from 3 babies and it just wouldn’t go away with diet or exercise, so the tummy tuck/lipo I’m certain will be awesome soon but beware it hurts and you are pretty miserable for a solid 2 weeks and still in a lot of pain on week 3, the worst part is getting out of bed in the morning after the muscles have tightened up and it feels like someone is ripping your insides apart everytime you get up. It’s almost like you are a turtle flipped over on the shell and can’t get flipped back over. One day I hope to say “ it was the best money I’ve ever spent” and forget about the pain but today is not yet the day :) I do have to say that choosing this practice was the best decision and you won’t be disappointed and they do everything to make you feel better and are quick to respond to any needs.
