Nurse Val wanted breast augmentation her entire adult life, and five years ago she got it. She remembers how excited she was on the day of surgery, her husband’s bad jokes, and how it felt like something was sitting on her when she woke up.

More recently as a new mom, she recalls the shocking changes to her breasts when the time for breastfeeding arrived. There are things she’d do differently if she could do it over, and she’s already planning what she’ll change when it’s time to replace her implants.

Val’s story is truly helpful advice to anyone thinking about breast augmentation, including why she regrets not taking more time off after surgery and the one surprise perk of getting breast implants before having her baby.

Because there are so many ways to do breast augmentation surgery and so many decisions to make, none of which are wrong, Val and Dr. Houssock help us understand why the most important choice of all is the plastic surgeon with whom you make those decisions.

Hosted by Baltimore plastic surgeon Carrie A. Houssock, MD and her all-female team, Perfectly Imperfect is the authentically human podcast navigating the realities of aesthetic medicine for people who live and work in the DMV.
