I was referred to Dr Todd Hewell by one of my former bosses who is quite experienced with plastic surgery. She was looking to get her complete body and face done (about 30-40k worth of surgery), and was even considering my former surgeon. She did her research better than I did and saw 7 doctors total. She had previous breast revisions and could not get her former implants symmetrical either. She showed me her new breasts and they look AMAZING!! The nipples are perfectly symmetrical! She could not say enough good things about this doctor, and since I clearly am too trustworthy myself, I feel confident choosing Dr Hewell for my surgery. Btw, this guy really is legit. He has a beautiful facility with a salt water fish tank and he actually owns the entire building!! When a surgeon owns a big facility including the operating room, that is a good sign of success. Unlike many other surgeons who just rent rooms. Dr Hewell fixed my complications, and I am super happy with the outcome of my surgery even months later. The staff is great and professional. I would definitely recommend him to anyone!!

Great to see you're doing well. I just had a revision surgery for bottoming out and am staying optimistic. The fact that your repair has held up gives me hope. :) :)
Any updates?
Hey ! Almost 6 years later and the repair held up pretty well . I eventually want to get them redone , but it isn't at the top of my list . I even had another baby 7 months ago and they still look pretty damn good . Maybe they aren't totally deflated yet , but I am getting a tummy tuck next month and am okay waiting to get to redone .

Breasts are still doing good 8 months post revision!!

8 months post revision, my breasts seem to be doing well!! I have not bottomed out on the right, and my left breast has settled nicely. It was definitely a few month process waiting for that left breast to settle. My symmetry and everything is good too!!

My only complaint is that the left breast I had prior capsular contracture in , still continues to hurt from time to time. It's not incredibly painful to where I need Tylenol, but it's frequent and is the worst right before and during my period. It seems to be getting a little better with time. I just saw my doctor Friday and he reassured me that everything is going well and on track. I guess my body has been through some trauma, and still needs to heal in the long run. Love the way my breasts look and my size! I just hope everything stays good.. xoxo

Glad that you are still happy hopefully the pain is just part of extended healing. Did you notice a big difference between the moderate plus & the high profile? or more the cc increase?
Hi !! Oh I absolutely noticed the biggest difference from switching from moderate plus to high profile and I'm soooooo glad I did it !! High profile gave me much better projection , while moderate plus just made me feel heavy .. I only went up 75cc so it was definitely the profile switch that made a big difference
Hi! Can you please tell me who did your primary Rhinoplasty? I live in your area and I'm looking. Don't want to go to your first Dr. You can leave it it a private message if you'd like.
