Since I'm the thread starter, I'll start. I want to have my breasts done. So far, I am choosing among 3 doctors,
Dr. Jay Recasata of Faces and Curves (the famous doctor who allegedly did Kim Chui's nose),
Dr. Edwin Paul Magallona (from The Medical City) and
Dr. Deedle Nable-Aguillera (from Beverly Hills Medical Group). I've emailed each of them and so far here's the price they gave me. This is inclusive of Surgeon's Fee, Anesthesia Fee, Facility Fee, Take-Home Medicines and Compression Garment. Lab tests are not included.
Doc Jay - Price range from 160K to 190k (depending on the kind of implant)
Doc Edwin - 120K (starting price)
Doc Deedle - 155K (for Standard Size (150-500 cc) Silicone Mammary Implants)
Actually, while money is a factor, the end result is more important to me. Doc Jay is well-known for his expertise in Rhinoplasty. Actually, if I want a nose job, I'll come to him, no doubt. I have visited his clinic na din and I must say, for someone who's already famous (He and his wife guested in Kris TV) and who is obviously rich, he is so modest and humble. Walang ka-ere-ere. Madaling kausap and ipapaliwanag nya sa yo lahat BUT when it comes to Breast Augmentation, wala pa kong masyadong nababasang reviews about him.
Doc Edwin naman has so many reviews from
WhatClinic. Medyo believable kaya lang I tried looking for reviews from other sites at wala akong makita even from forums or personal blogs. Pero among the three eh his price is the lowest at kung totoo talaga yung raves ng mga tao eh di naka-jackpot ako.
Doc Deedle - actually, the only reason why I consider her as an option is because my hubby wants a female doctor to do the procedure. That's it. Wala pa akong nakikitang ni isang review about her sa internet. As in nothing at all. The only thing I found out is that she dated this Pharmaton commercial model once and that has nothing to do with BA. When I emailed Beverly Hills, they said she has done the procedure "several" times already. I am kinda worried because several is not a lot and if she's been a doctor for at least 10 years, "several" is not enough. I checked out her picture and she's very pretty but again, that has nothing to do with her skills in surgery.
Seriously, eto na lang ang decision that I have to make. The rest that has to do with BA alam ko na ano gusto ko like size, kind of implants etc. I have done my research na din when it comes to pre-op and post-op patient care. If you have experiences with these doctors or even from other doctors who you know are really good please post away. Thanks.
