Comment on It’s not the Vitamins….It is how the SURGERY is done! by joy thompson

Thank you so much for your speedy yet very informative feedback. I feel so much better because you have truly validated my feelings. I’m looking a bit smaller and I’m thinking this size is going to be ok. My true concern at this point is when my sister see’s me half dressed(because in my house, girl’s have no privacy)is she going to say girl you look like you have fake breast!I look really round and inflated right now and I’m hoping with time, I will just look good and natural, without someone thinking/knowing I have implants. I don’t want my secret out although, I want to look good. I realize I have to much pride and I must get over it. On a serious note. I have the natralle silicone implants and just the other day I felt something pop and a warm gush. I actually had to look in the mirror at my breast because I thought my nipples were leaking. So, to list my other fear, I’m affraid of my implant leaking. Do you think prehaps I could have applied to much pressure with my bando, which caused a rupture? Please, advise. I thank God that I came through sugery and I just do want to leave this world 6mths from now because silcone have caused my breast tissue to die and silicone in my lungs

I truly,appreciate you

Sincerely,

Joy

Carla –

You should really consult your ps about the limits they recommend. After six weeks, you should be cleared to begin your normal routine but not knowing that routine and how your surgery was done, I would not feel comfortable answering your question. Call you PS – I am sure they will be happy to help you.

Joy – please, don’t rush into any decisions just 4 days post op! I know you are scared, but perhaps with a little time, it will all be ok. Your case, though, is exactly why we stress not making operative plans and decisions about breast augmentation based on a measurement that has no standard or clinical definition! When you and your surgeon talk cup size – neither one of you, honestly, know what you are talking about and then you end up with this situation. Secondly, you and your surgeon have to be knowledgable about what an implant will and won’t do. Implants don’t make cleavage – BRAS do. So here again, when communication is off before the operation, you know expectations will be off and then the end result it kind of screwed from the beginning because you really did not know what you were asking for.
Terrye
If you had had access to The Best Breast 2 before surgery, I think you would have avoided all the pre – op cup size discussion and made decisions based on your body. But just as importantly, you would have known that most breast augmentation patients feel that their implants are too high, too tight, too swollen and too big for the first 4 – 6 weeks. If your surgeon had warned you and prepared you for this – perhaps even shown you a 2-3 day post op of one of his or her patients, then perhaps you would not be so scared right now and would know that what you are feeling is normal and will probably pass.

With all of this said and done, honestly, the difference betwen a 302 and a 260 is really not that much and having sat in my chair for 21 years, I believe in 6 weeks, you will be fine and happy with them. Write me back in six weeks and let me know – in the mean time, I will be thinking good thoughts for you. And hope that no other patient has to be in this situation – - education preoperatively is key to getting a good, long term result.

I’m really affraid I made a big mistake. I just underwent BA 4 days ago and I told my surgeon that I wanted to be a modest c cup. I was a B cup and I explained to him I did not want to be large but a size that looked good on me with a little cleavage. After coming out of surgery he put to 302cc instead of the 260cc bc he recalled me saying cleavage. I’m disappointed in my results because my breast looks really big. I’m wanting them out and made smaller. What would be your recommendation. I’m 5′1 121lbs and very narrow. My husband isn’t crazy about breast and he said that “this wasn’t the body i married 10yrs ago.” I just wanted a more youthfull breast and not big perky breast. Is it to soon to go smaller or is it to risky.

Comment on I wish you could just order up your Breast Augmentation – but you can’t – deal with it! by Dustin Lozano

Dr. Tebbetts,

I was a patient of yours in 2007. The reason I chose you as my surgeon is because I did ask all of those questions and because the education process that your office enforces was wonderful. I know that I couldn’t be happier with my change if I had gone to anyone else.

I recommend you all of the time to girlfriends that are thinking about a BA. One of the things I always say is that there is a difference between a “boob job” and a BA, something I learned from you. I also tell my friends that have had kids that the biggest they should go is the largest they were when they were pregnant. The other great thing I tell them was that I was out to the mall and had showered three hours after surgery! I went in on Friday before Labor Day and was back at work that Tuesday, no bleeding or bruising. The only discomfort was from laying on my stomach to loosen up the implants. No one at work had a clue! And they only made comments in speculation based on what I wore.

Two years later I still get compliments. They look so natural and I have never had anyone say anything rude. I think people say rude things when implants don’t look natural to a woman’s body. Most people are shocked when they find out that I have had a BA!!!

Thank you.

Dustin

We only yesterday heard about Terrye’s injury, and we were both horrified beyond belief. We pray for her quick recovery and for Kas, who was an unwilling witness to this tragedy. We know her strength and that ov her family will sustain her through this difficult time.

[...] Best way is to use a caliper measuring tool – you can get one at Lowes or Home Depot. I highly recommend getting the book The Best Breast 2 by Dr Tebbetts!! http://www.thebestbreast.com also check out their blog article cooking up your result. [...]
