Good luck tomorrow Bellaa, I agree with everything that Gstar has said. Dr T is amazing and has the best bedside manner. He really calmed by nerves and made me feel so at ease from the get go.

I had revision surgery with him and already my boobs look a million and one times better then they ever did the first time around. I truly believe he is the King of Boobs and I am so glad I travelled interstate to have surgery with him.

good luck honey you will be fine

who was your surgeon? I would be inclined to post pictures in the Q&A section of the forum for another surgeon to at least provide an opinion. You dont need to live with someone for 12 months just because your surgeon wants you to have PHI coverage before he will re operate. Maybe even an opinion from one of the surgeons here will be some ammo for you to say oh heyyy......not cool or something like that

Hi pinkFriday, did he say what is causing the pain?
I would be pushing for more to be done. That sounds unreasonable to be putting up with pain for 12 months.
 
would you consider a second opinion from another surgeon?

The only one I have heard of is Dr Webster but that was from another patient on here and I am not sure if she actually went through with the surgery.
Honestly, I think if you want this procedure done you will need to travel. Dr T is the only one i have really seen post op pics of this procedure in AUS, most seem to go to the USA to have it done

what is the projection of your implant? I disagree with the others, 615cc is not a small implant and there are risks associated with going bigger - you have more chance of bottoming out etc.
With all that said, a surgeon usually wouldnt recommend an implant that would be unsuitable for your body, they usually are more conservative with their size recommendations so I am sure he has good reason to recommend this size to you

Forget the number, did you try the implants on? How did they feel to you? Did they feel too big? Did you show your surgeon pictures of the 'look' you want to achieve? If yes then I would trust that the size they are recommending to you will be most likely to get you the look you want. 

If you are going to upsize you should consider Dr Tavakoli. I flew from interstate to see him and I also have the internal bra. 
Mine is permanent and will last forever. Dr Tavakoli is the revision guru. I've seen people travel from as far as South America and Europe for revision surgery. 
Dr M also does nice work but I have never seen any of his revision work and from what I know of this industry it is not what he is known for.

@410ccFX the internal bra is fine - I can't notice anymore pain then the first time around and Dr T told me that it shouldn't be more painful when done properly. I was also worried that the internal bra stitches would hurt and pull which might give me puckering but I have none of that. I did have quite a bit of fat grafting with my surgery though so I guess that helps.
My boobs are a million times better already then my first pair ever were. I didn't really end up with too much frankenboob this time around but everyone is different.

How is your recovery going? Do you feel like an improvement yet?

Well ill be damned. You look amazing

If money is no issue and you really want the best of the best then you should look at Dr Tavakoli. When I had my surgery, there was another girl who was from the US who had travelled down for surgery with him. I am sure the poor Australian dollar meant it wasnt too expensive.

I find self promotion not a good indicator of how good a surgeon is. I was very lucky to have close friends I trust who work in this industry and have worked closely with a lot of these surgeons, they all recommended Dr T to me.
 

My friend has nagor implants with Dr M but this was a few years ago. She isn't happy with her boobs anymore and is getting them redone soon. She had the internal bra but it isn't permanent. I think the stitches dissolve at about 12 months post op.
Maybe Dr M only uses the mentor implants now. This is what I have and they are great.
I don't think a proper internal bra (I.e with the permanent barbed sutures) are common for standard breast augmentations. I have this kind of internal bra but I was a revision case and it didn't hurt anymore then the initial surgery. 

you know what i am loving my calvin klein crop tops - they make my boobs look amazing and they are so comfy
otherwise i have also been wearing those bras from bras n things that have the removable wire

good luck - i had removal and replacment, opposite to you though i went from rounds to anatomicals and my recovery was fine. I had fat grafting and internal bra 

I wasnt tuberous but I had revision and I was able to claim some of it on my PHI - your best bet is to talk to your surgeon and find out as it really depends on the individual especially when its not straight forward surgery 

Dr T doesnt even have reviews on his facebook????

G star i just saw your pics in the other thread and WOW you are looking fantastic already. I loved your snapchat, very awesome.
you are going to feel like a new woman now

good luck honey you will be fine

Good luck! I'm 1 day post op with Dr T and I cannot speak more highly of him. The whole process from start to finish was amazing and all the staff at the hospital were lovely. Dr T checked on me twice after the operation including just before he left to go home he came and saw me in my room (I stayed overnight.) he was really happy with the results and made me feel so relaxed and at ease. He truly is amazing and you will see what I mean tomorrow! Mine was a tuberous breast correction so the surgery was quite invasive and lasted 3 hours... I got 375cc in my bigger breast that also had a lift and 445cc in my smaller breast! I also had fat transferred from my stomach to create nice cleavage. They look perfect already! 

Hello to my fellow Dr Tavakolli girls
 
IM DONE - I had my surgery last week and I am already over the moon. I ended up with 485cc anatomical implants and already i love them so much more then my rounds.
I also had an internal bra technique used as my pocket was over dissected by my previous surgeon. I am feeling great and i dont feel like i am in more pain then my initial breast augmentation which i think is a true testament to Dr Tavakoli's skills.
I am a little bruised from the fat grafting but even so, i feel like my boobies are a millionnnnnnnnn times better then what i had.

I cannot thank Dr T and his team enough for everything they have done. For me, he definitely was worth travelling to see him. I did soooo much research in order to find my revision surgeon as I had so many fears. He really is the king of boobs lol

Also can anyone tell me how to add pictures?

good luck Huck, i am having revision surgery next month, its tough when you dont get the perfect outcome first time around
