Hey Everyone, firstly I am very happy to have found this website. Reviewing everyones personal experiences and seeing their photos, pre op and post op has truly helped me realize what I am potentially in for. A Quick bio of me, I am 22 years old, 120 pounds and 5'7 bra size 34A and I am from Toronto, Ontario. I will attach photos for your viewing pleasure.

It took me 3 years and a few months to finally work up the courage to set foot in a cosmetic surgery office. My first consultation was with Dr. Frank Lista at The Plastic Surgery Clinic in Mississauga, Ontario. This being my first consultation I was VERY nervous. Upon meeting Dr. Lista he didn't put my feelings at ease. He was a pleasant man, though I felt he was very condescending. I showed him pictures of what I was looking for essentially 350cc, sub muscular with cohesive gel implants. He looked at me and advised me that HE would NOT go any larger then 250cc and the procedure would be done transaxillary. Based on my size, I do not have enough breast tissue to have it done under the crease or through the nipple. I was thrown off at the fact he was dictating my size, and refused to go any larger....that being said he was not my choice. My second consultation was at the TCC (Toronto Cosmetic Clinic) this office location, is a little bit out of my way though they seemed very professional over the phone. I arrived 20 minutes early for my appointment and ending waiting over an hour for Dr. Mansour Bendago I was brought into the consultation room. At this point he reviewed my chart, and seemed like he was in a rush. After examining my chart, he just looked at me and said you can be a 350cc, with the procedure to be periareolar incision. I had advised him about my aerolas not being as large, that I don't think that it was the best route for me, and that I preferred transaxillary incision. He ranted and raved how it was not the proper way to do so, and it was more work. At this point he still hasn't seen my breasts and was trying to wrap up the appointment. I had to slow down the conversation and ask him if I can show him my breasts for him to throughly examine. To sum this consolation up...he also was not the one.

So all of this talk about consultations may be boring, but I truly hope it helps someone who is looking for the right Dr. this is a life changing experience, it is your body, your investment.

FINALLY, this past Monday, March 17, 2014 I went to the Toronto Cosmetic Surgery Insitute to meet with Dr. Martin Jugenburg. First impressions right down to the initial appointment booking absolutely stellar customer service. Their practice is located at Fairmount Royal York Hotel - Level B. The office is clean, and very well organized. I arrived an hour early for my appointment, I was expecting to wait though as soon as I completed all of my paper work I was greater by their RN Kim. We had a great one on one consultation, we went over a very detailed medical history and spoke about what I wanted my outcome to be. Dr. Jugenburg later joined us, and right from the start I new he was the one. He made me feel excited, happy and most important comfortable. He was very knowledgeable, personable, and patient. He took his time to throughly examine me, detailed measurements, pictures etc... when it came to sizing he showed me different styles of implants, and explained based on my body how it would look and effect me. Instead of dictating a size he provided me with different sizes to try on, and kept note of what I like. After he reviewed and told me what I choose, and made recommendations based on what I am looking for.

It didn't take me long to make my decision, he is the WINNER. I hoping to be booked in for April 16th, 2014 if not I will be booking for April, 23rd, 2014. The final size I decided on was 375cc cohesive gel HP, sub muscular with transaxillary incision.

I am very excited and will follow up with you all once I have my set date, and start my pre-op procedure.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

Cheers! :)

Thank you for sharing all the details of your various doctor consults. It's great for other women just starting their breast aug research, to see the ideal process of looking for a surgeon. I'm certain your time and effort will pay off in the end. We'd love it if you could post some wish boob photos too. Keep us posted as you prepare for your big day!

Today was Pre-Op day! It was very exciting, I brought my mom with me to meet with Kim and help me with sizing and I must say it was a great idea. In my previous post I was looking to go 375cc FP though after conducting further research and consulting with my RN I found out you lose about 20% volume of your implant when you are going under the muscle. I played around with sizes and went to 435cc I really like how it looked though, again you would loose 20% of that volume so my deciding factor was 500cc. After the volume loss it should be around 435cc FP according to my RN. I know it may seem like drastic change going from 375cc to 500cc but there is a phrase.. "go big or go home." I have been reviewing a lot of woman's experiences and they have been saying they wished they went bigger. I don't want that to happen to me. I will post some photos from my pre-op appointment.

I have been contemplating between Dr. Jugenburg and another p.s , did you have a long wait time in getting a consultation and/or booking the date?

Hi Sammi, When it came to my consultation it was a longer wait time. Though I had requested with the receptionist that if any opening came up please contact me, and they did! In regards to booking my date, they were the most accommodating! I had requested April 16th, that date was not available. They did everything possible to get into my next selected date which was April 23. So I wouldn't judge the wait time, for I truly feel that it will be worth your wait. The way I see it, if he wasn't good he wouldn't have a wait list, at least you know he is busy! :) I can't express how amazing Dr. Jugenburg and his team are. As soon as I walked in, I had made my choice. They are absolutely amazing. If you have any other questions please let me know :)

I was also thinking about Dr. Jugenberg and I'm wondering if you made the consultation with just Kim or Dr. J as well? I tried getting an appt but the earliest they're taking them are in June so I booked an earlier one with just Kim.

I had to wait about 3 months for my appointment, I was lucky enough to have it with Kim and Dr. Jugenburg ... I would advise you to keep your appointment with Kim, she is very qualified and is good at what she does. Should you choose to move forward they will certainly set up another appointment for you to meet the Dr. I promise you, they are worth the wait.
