I could not of pick a better doctor! I am extremely satisfied with my results. I underwent breast augmentation on July 10th of 2013 with Dr. Benedetti and really wish I had done this a lot sooner!
I recently lost weight due to a mandatory change to eliminate gluten from my diet. I started to noticed that my breast fullness was not like it once was. I had always wanted to improve my self image, not have to worry about wearing a bra, or worrying if I lost weight if it would decrease my breast size. I personally knew two people who had gone to Dr. Benedetti for breast augmentations and they had nothing but good to say about him. I did go on 2 consultations with plastic surgeons. The 1st Dr. I went to felt like a chop shop. Dr. Benedetti was my 2nd consultation. He made my boyfriend and I feel very comfortable by explaining how what kind of implant he felt I needed, how big my incision would be, and any other questions we both had. I felt so comfortable I scheduled my surgery the very next day!
My next appointment with Dr. Benedetti was my sizing appointment. He told me to bring in pictures and had me try on the sizers. This is where I really felt like Dr. Benedetti listened a lot. I showed him a few pictures of what I did not want and what I did want. 2 days before my surgery I went through a little bit of a panic because I was afraid I was going to be too big or too small. This was most likely caused by my searching online of what cc's he had told me, this didn't help! I called Debbie and I expressed my concern to her. She gave me the option to come in and try on the sizers again or I could send over more pictures to Dr. Benedetti. She assured me that I was in great hands and that he would bring a few different sizes to decide which size best fit my body. Thanks to Debbie! She's great!
Come surgery day I was so excited! The hospital staff was so nice! Dr. Benedetti came in and started drawing his incisions lines and discussed sizing one more time. He looked at the pictures that I brought with me and discussed them with my boyfriend and I again making us feel 100% comfortable. I told him to do what he felt looked the best to achieve my goal and what fit my body.
After my surgery I was not in much pain at all! I went home and rested. I was back to showing homes (work-real estate) 2 day after surgery with hardly any pain and no pain medication! From my research I expected to be very swollen and to have them up to my collar bone. This was not the case either. I had hardly any swelling absolutely no bruising, and the tiniest incisions. I have been back for follow up appointments and love my results! Dr. Benedetti's office staff is amazing as well. The nurse would even take my call right away if I had questions. Dr. Benedetti did an amazing job! He truly listened and got the sizing just right! I am so glad I chose the right Dr.!

I did the memory gel high profile. I had lost so much weight I was a 32a even though I would never admit it before. I went with 500 cc's. As of right now I am only 2 weeks cleared of being out of a sports bra. Out of those 2 weeks I spent a week and a half in Key West.. So needless to say I was either in a bathing suit or strapless shirt or dress. I am having a hard time finding some one who actually knows how to size rather than just selling me what ever bra they have that would fit or what style bra they are being pushed to sell. (No thanks to Victoria's Secret)
Congratulations! Glad to hear you are pleased with both your results and your PS! It sounds like you had an amazing recovery. What type of implants did get? And how many cc's? How much of an increase in cup size did you end up with? Thank you for taking the time to share you story on RealSelf!
