WORTH IT
Just want to check on those of you that had surgery around the same time as me. I'm extremely happy with my results. Still following up with my Brest surgeon Dr. Doft. I have other friends that have gone for surgery after me, I'm here if you have any questions! Have a bless day everyone!

Finding the Right Surgeon is the Key to Great Results
gigifromnyAugust 5, 2016
It's been almost 11 months since I had my surgery and I'm writing
this review because I constantly see surgeries chine wrong on this site.
I was fortunate enough to find a surgeon is still monitoring my
results, even though I was happy with my initial results. I've seen
cases here where you only see your doctor once or twice after the
procedure and then you're pretty much on your own. That's totally not my
case and I couldn't be happier. Just this past week I saw my doctor to
remove some scar tissue that has developed around my left areola, and to
do a small revision. I was honestly totally healed and happy with my
initial surgery but my doctor said it needed to be "perfect". I couldn't
be more satisfied, I honestly feel blessed to have found such a caring
doctor. Please feel free to ask any questions. Good luck with your
surgeries, and do your research first, don't settle, it's your body and
you need someone that's great at what they do. Feel free to look at my
profile and see my initial review

That is great! My doctor has my 3-month appointment set for next month and then I have to pay a copay. I'm sure it will be OK if I request an appointment but I don't think it's standard to go beyond 4 appointments after surgery if all is well.
I see your scars faded quite nice after 1 month. Mine are getting there I hope. It's been 2 months. How are the scars now in terms of color, lines and stiffness? When did you start using products? What did you use? My doctor told me to use aquaphor and I'll be fine.
Thanks for coming on a year later to share. That helps a lot!

My doctor likes to do the follow ups for up to a year I believe. So I've been going every three months or so.

I started using products about a month after, Bio oil has worked well for me and my doctor also recommended silicon strips. I'm happy with the scars, the have faded a lot, some parts more than others.

I apologize, my phone keeps acting out on me lol. I used aquaphor as well, but I feel the bio oil is lighter and has worked better, specially whenever I felt any type of scar sensitivity. I have no stiffness at all. Let me know if you have any more questions. Happy to help :)

I booked a consult with dr Doft after reading your review and seeing your amazing results! Absolutely gorgeous work. You must feel so much better! I am just waiting to hear back from insurance now. Fingers crossed because I have wanted this for SO long!!

Great! I saw her yesterday for my three month post op visit. She did mention two patients had made appointments based on my review. Isn't she amazing? Yes it's a life changing surgery. I don't have to wear a bra if I don't want to!!! And I feel so much better. I wish you the best! You'll more than likely get approved :-)
I'm sure you loved her office, no wait time and Michelle (her secretary) is just adorable!
