Breast augmentation before and after — real patient review | UNE Plastic Surgery

It's officially been a month since my breast surgery!! Dr. Kim only does breast surgeries, so you can really tell he specializes in this. Even from the consultation, it felt different from other places.

I have a pectus-type chest and not much natural tissue of my own, so after years of going back and forth, I finally decided to get breast surgery.

I went to a few consultations, and out of all of them, both Dr. Kim and the coordinator were so kind and really put my worried mind at ease.

So after a lot of thought, I went through with the surgery.

The surgery itself took less than 40 minutes, and they're known for keeping the pain to a minimum, right? For me, it only actually hurt while I was in the recovery room — after that it was just some discomfort, nothing more.

Now that it's been a month, I'm back to my normal daily life with no issues, and even lying down and getting up again doesn't really hurt anymore lol

I've been going in every week for capsule care, and the texture keeps feeling more and more natural!

If you're on the fence about breast surgery, definitely go get a consultation at UNE too — they're seriously so kind!!!!
