Heavy Breasts that cause skin rashes and groove your shoulders? Why put up with that?

Sunday, November 15th, 2009

If you’re tired of saggy, heavy breasts that cause you shoulder, neck and back pain, with skin rashes, you need to explore the possibility of a breast reduction, breast lift with DR MICHELE KOO, MD, FACS, ST LOUIS, MISSOURI, 314-984-8331.

DR KOO truly believes that a BREAST REDUCTION is a very safe procedure that will change your life. Your breasts will be lifted, lighter and reshaped. You will feel that your breasts are shapelier and that you are able to do so much more physically than you ever have before. Your friends will keep asking you if you’ve lost weight and you’ll look and feel so much better.

It is difficult for you to exercise and get healthier due to the size and heaviness of your breasts. You are in a negative spiral downward with your large heavy breasts making you more inactive. The more inactive you are the more weight you gain and the more weight you gain the heavier yours breasts become.

Why Silicone and Saline Breast Implants are truly very safe

Most of my patients by the time they call and make an appointment for a breast augmentation consultation have been considering this surgery since their teenage years.

Breast augmentations are very safe and have been performed on woman for 40 plus years. Silicone breast implants are again FDA approved for elective breast enlargements for women 22 years of age and older.

Saline breast implants have always been available for cosmetic breast enlargements and continue to be used safely.

Breast enlargements with breast implants do not necessarily mean that you will be “gi-normous” or that your breasts will be in a different zip code from your body. What it means is that you will be more proportionate for your body and you will feel sexier and more in balance for your height, weight, shoulder and hip circumference. When you are naked or in a swim suit, you will feel more confident and more sexy and in balance. It is about feeling better about your body and being less self conscience not necessarily having breasts that poke out your friends eyes.

I perform the breast enlargement surgery under general anesthesia as an outpatient and the surgery itself takes just under one hour. You will be slightly tired for a few hours after the surgery from the anesthesia but you will have very little pain. You won’t like the tight surgical bra but you must leave the compressive surgical bra on day and night for the first 4 days. You will be allowed to take the bra off and shower after 4 days.

You will return to light cardio activity at 2 weeks and full activity at 4 weeks.

Breast enhancement surgery is safe with minimal recovery. You should not feel that it is only for the wealthy. Breast augmentation with saline or silicone implants is very affordable and we work with a financing company that specializes in cosmetic procedures.

I am extremely honest and straightforward with you about the correct type of breast implant that is best for you depending on your type of original breasts as well as the breasts you want to ultimately have. I will also guide you on your choice of size and style of breast implant that will give you the most natural sexy breasts that are not at all conspicuous and overwhelming for your body. I completely understand woman’s goals of looking sexy but natural with their breasts, that you don’t necessarily want your sexy new breasts to be the center of attention of your body.
