As a result of breastfeeding and large weight loss in the past years, and now at the age of 48, I was left with very little breasts with no fullness to them at all. After a lot of thought and research, I decided to take the next step and see a plastic surgeon. I chose Dr. Michael J. Brown because he had done an in-office procedure on me a few years prior and I felt confident going to him. Also, breast augmentation is his specialty. When I finally made the decision to proceed with breast augmentation, I had a couple visits with Dr. Brown and then we set the surgery date. In the next few weeks before the breast augmentation surgery date, well-meaning acquaintances would tell me horror stories and I would get very anxious and have to call Dr. Brown’s office. Each time one of his Patient Care Coordinators would take the time to talk me through it and reassure me. I was also concerned about being “too large.”

Please know that Dr. Brown knows what size is best for your shape and to have confidence in his expertise. I let him know of my preferences, he listened, and I realized I just needed to relax and trust him. The breast augmentation surgery went very well. The post-operative pain was pretty severe for the first 2 1/2 days but after that, recovery was rapid. I highly recommend you have someone there to assist you for at least the first two days. The breasts are beautiful, perky, round, full, and with each passing week, relaxing and lowering into a more natural place and just incredible. I brag to my girlfriends that I don’t even need a bra to support them. I am now three months post breast augmentation surgery and the breasts are feeling more and more natural. The only down side to this is that I have little feeling in my nipples. I am hopeful that the sensitivity will return. My clothes look much better and I feel so much more womanly and confidant. If you are feeling embarrassed or insecure about your breasts, I recommend having a breast augmentation by Dr. Michael J. Brown.”
