Boob Job

My wife recently asked me what I though about her getting Breast Surgery and of course, I did the responsible thing and told her that I had married her for her intelect and not her appearance and then proceeded to research the risks and communicate these to her - Actually, I jumped with joy and immediately started to do some research on her behalf to speed things along.


The problem I'm now facing is getting some recomendations from experienced people of where is best to get this done. In previous threads on this site, Bumrungrad Hospital in Bangkok has been recomended, but I've struggled to find any other recomendations.


My wife is Korean and she is doing the research about getting it done back in Korea.


Could anyone recomend anywhere else, just to give us some choice on the matter, with experienced, reliable and safe practices?

Fake boobs: looks good but VERY disappointing in bed. Speaking from experience. Maybe silicon would be better since my experience is with saline implants. By the way, the whole silicon "controversy" is BS. The autoimmune diseases that it is been associated with has been scientifically disproved.

Scutdog1 - Without getting too graphic, do you think you could try and give a little more detail as to why you were dissapointed with the Saline Implants?

Generally the standard of plstic and cosmetic surgery in Korea is excellent.I would also not reject the anti-silicone prejudice. Spillage is always possible with all implants and a little salty water is to be prefered to a synthetic.

If you would like any information from our hospital, details of the procedure and costs please feel free to give me a call.

Matilda, From what I have researched so far, Hong Kong would seem to be an expensive place for this kind of surgery, when compared to Thailand or Korea. What benefits could I expect by staying local? What are the advantages?

I git them done in Thailand and was fully recovered after only 1 month! it is pain, but it is worth that. Dr. Amorn Pommee operated me and did a very good job. It looks very natural.

Try to reach him through email, he will email you all the information and if she goes for it, expect a waiting time. as he is apparently THE doc there..

Bumrungrad even offers for a small fee of I think only 250HKD/day a service appartment.

But it would be good, if she could have someone stay with her for at least the first 3 to 4 days..

whats the difference between saline and silicon?

Which one looks best, is safe and feels more natural?

The very best place at the very best price to have this dome is on South Africa..... go on holiday and get your boobs done at the same time.... it is a day procedure and the healing process is fast. Because of the USD$ to Rand exchange rate, the fees are reasonable and most of the good plastic surgeons use special silicon impalnts that feel very natural and look wonderful.

Actually pumpkin you are wrong...woman get boob enlargements to get noticed...so get your facts straight...now boob implants using silicone are dangerous there are a numeber of researched articles about the dangers of leakage etc...saline is much safer but the feel is not the same.


I suggest Mr. Potatoe Head to go out get a hooker with big knockers and get it out his system, then afterwards go out and buy your wife a 1 carat diamond ring...trust me it will be alot cheaper...if however she is bent on getting the boob job I can recommend a famous HK plastic surgeon named Dr. Wong, she has a practice here in HK and if money is an issue she also has a practice in Guangzhou. She has also operayted on one of the more famous Ms Hong Kong's and is regularly featured in news papers here. I think her charges are between HK$20 - 30,000. She was trained by two of the best plastic surgeons in Asia. If you wnat her contact let me know.

There is a doctor in Taiwan who has been doing breast enlargement vertually under local anesthesia for years, those who are interested may go to http://27565488.com and find out examples and explanations.

I am a bloke but have spent some years working in the sex industry. Seen breasts and boob jobs more than most, say about 200 naked women a night for 5 years. No good ever came of boob jobs. like blokes on the gear, women who have post ops problems NEVER tell others but continue to encourage friends to do them. Blokes get a dozen complications from stacking 'roids and growth hormones but still take them and tell their mates they are fine. So both sexes can be happy at their images in front of a mirror?


Check those website for info and you will find them ALL run by cosmetic surgeons. A mate of mine is a retired reconstruction surgeon and was the most respected chap in this area in his country. He hates being lumped with these idiots. In fact, he said most MDs despise them but loathe to break ranks with the profession.


On a personal level, I researched the hell out of the subject on the internet and watched a year's worth of cable TV documentaries on implants. Coz my girl wanted her second one coz the 1st one had gone south. Literally. Guess what, almost everything I found was in favour and ALL the sites are run by the sellers of these services! I found a few site about the horrors of boob jobs but I need to dig them up. They look wrong, they feel wrong and they GO wrong. There's been several cases of hardening and needed immediate removal; leaking that needed the same; reajustment when they go out of shape; I could go on listing. I was there, I watched these girls suffered and I watched mine live in denial about the irregular shapes of her present implants. They paid top money in France, Switzerland, South Africa, etc for their ops.


I am also trained in trauma management by Ex-Med in Hereford and I couldn't believe that the Delta medics who taught us took time to tell us how to deal with problems with boob jobs! Apparently the rich clients who can afford our services can also afford bimbo trophy wives with boob jobs and being the only field medic about, we need to know what to do when they go wrong. Believe me, they do. Many Hollywood actresses have removed theirs, in kari Wuhrer's case it was an emergency op, coz they do wrong.


Since then I have tried to talk every single woman I know who wants a boob job out of it. I appeal to them on medical grounds, esthetic grounds and with just plain common sense. I failed to disuade a single one in 5 years. Including mine. In the same period, 4 associates have died directly and indirectly from steroids abuse, 3 more won't see the next Xmas. Guess how many aspiring bodybuilders I have disuaded from taking drugs? NONE! We have only lost 3 mates in Iraq in the same time.


Scaremongering? Misinformed? No disrespect intended but spend a day in my shoes.


For your own sake, drop the idea.

Sorry to bore everyone, I have more on the subject. Women who get boob jobs don't stop there. The mentality is that there is something to blame (their body) and there is a cure (ops) for things they percieve to be wrong in their lives. It is the proverbial line crossing. Blokes on a basic stroid course go onto stacking and incresing dosage. One even told me what is the point of training without the gear. Then some will move to cocaine coz the bloke that gets you the roids can get you the happy.


They all justify what they do by saying they do it for themselves, not for anyone else. I hear that if there is one one thing in life over which we have control, it's what we do. Don't listen to anyone else. I am 100% on that train. But listen to get the facts right.


I know I am talking to brick walls. All seems to have massive self esteem issues, men and women, and getting that self esteems with these crutches don't do them any good. They just need more later. I know a girl now has false boobs, bums and shoulders in HK! She looks like a manga character but she sees a beautiful image in the mirror. Who am I to tell her different if she's happy? I agree but who's going to stop me from telling her either? And sometimes, you just have to do the right thing when the rest of the world don't want to hear.


Think again before you embark on this slippery slope. Self esteem issues can be solved some other ways.

Hi Dragon Slayer


Hope you're still there. Could you give me the tel. number of Doctor Wrong you've mentioned in your message long time ago. Thank you.

Where in SA do you recommend?

Kimmi - contact Shelley in South Africa

00127216830869 or mobile 00127823325442. She is nursing sister and cares for patients at her B&B post surgery. She can refer to to a good surgeon and give you all the information.

I know these are old posts, but when researching my 'boob job' I read all of these.


I am an Australian living in HK and after having 2 kids and breastfeeding both for a year each I decided to have my breast done.


Dr Hui did my surgery this year in April 2012.


I am very happy with the results and the before and after care. I think they are very natural looking and my girlfriends (and husband!) are all very impressed. It is an overnight stay the Matilda. I do have some scaring however Dr. Hui goes in underneath the breast so it is covered by any bra or cosy you wear.


It is not cheap. Total cost with the hospital stay is going to set you back about $110,000 HKD. I had a girlfiend who had her breast done the same week in Thailand and I think hers were about $35,000 HKD. That does not include airfares, hotel stays etc. I thought about the Thailand option but did not feel comfortable with traveling overseas to do this and was concerned about after surgery care. Of which my girlfriend who went to Thailand has had none.


Do not underestimate the size of this surgery however. It seems like lots of people have done it and it is no big deal but the first few days really are awful. They don't tell you about that in the pretty pastel coloured brochures with the illustrations. Of course there are no photos as if you saw photos it might put you off and this is a business for the Doctors after all!


When you wake up you are wearing a surgical bra and have drains inserted under each breast which filter down two tubes into two little plastic bottles. You have to empty these little bottles regularly and use a syringe to measure the amount of bloody fluid that has drained out of you. You keep a log of this. Once the measurement is under 30ml in 24 hours you can have the drains removed. Which was a horrible experience! The drains are about the size of a flat chopstick (a bit wider infact) and are under your skin. I found the drains very uncomfortable. Once the drains were removed my recovery was much better.


I did find myself the day after asking myself what I had done? There was nothing wrong with me! Would I ever be able to pick my kids up again? Generally pretty miserable. But of course that is all normal and forgotten later on ... just like childbirth!


If you are thinking should you or shouldn't you and have been thinking about it for a long time (as I had) just get over yourself and do it! Stop asking the question of yourself! I love my new figure. I feel very womanly and it is nice to fill out my cloths without shoving something down my bra to do the job!


Hope this helps anyone out there!
