Marie's Breast Augmentation Testimonial

"I am so happy with the outcome of my surgery"

I am 26 years old and had augmentation a year ago to replace volume. When I was in high school I had a 34C chest and as I got older and lost weight, I also lost volume in my breasts. When I went to see Dr. Hedden I was down to a small 34B. I am now a 34D and my breasts are much fuller with better shaping.

I chose Dr. Hedden after two of my friends used him. I spent time on the internet looking for board certified surgeons. I loved Dr. Hedden's website and before and after pictures.

When I went for the initial consultation I was very nervous. My husband came with me and we waited for about 10 minutes before being shown to a room. Dr. Hedden was so nice and took about 2 minutes to size them with a tool. I was worried I would have to get a lift and implants but Dr. Hedden assured me the implants would round them out and actually lift them a bit. I scheduled surgery as soon as I could.

I had about two months between the consultation and the surgery. I took that time to research everything about implants. I wanted to know exactly what could go wrong and what I could do to prevent these things. Massage is the best way to protect your investment!

On the day of the surgery the first thing I had to do was have pictures taken. Next I had to get an IV. The last thing I remember is being in the surgery room with lights above.

The next thing I remember is telling the nurse in the recovery room that I wanted a cheeseburger and coke. My husband came in and we went to a nearby hotel to spend the night. We would have to go back the next morning to see the doctor before driving home (about two hours away). My chest was heavy and my husband had to lift me up with his hand under my back, but I felt no pain. The next few days are foggy because I was given pain killers and anti-inflamatory drugs. I can honestly say that I do not remember any pain at all.

I am so happy with the outcome of my surgery. My breasts are much rounder and sit up better. I could go braless anytime but that wouldn't be wise because I want to protect my investment. I massage them still and they are very soft and feel pretty natural. This was the best decision for me and I would do it all over again.
