Breast Augmentation Testimonials

I met with Dr. Greenberg several times before the actual surgery and as other reviewers (old post) mentioned, she was very straight forward and was not pushy at all. She listened to what I was looking for but also gave me a very good suggestions. At the end I decided to have the surgery and I’m extremely happy with the result. It has been 3 months since I had the surgery, but my scar is pretty much gone and left only a great result. It looks very natural. I’m so glad I went to see Dr. Greenberg.

Thank you again!

My introduction to Dr. Lauren Greenberg was in the beautiful work she did in giving me breasts. Breasts that look real and natural, and that fit my build. If you didn’t know they weren’t real, you’d never guess. That was nearly five years ago now, and I appreciate daily what she has done for me. Given me a figure where once there was none. But in the years that have followed this transformation, I’ve embarked upon other transformations as well, seeking now to combat the effects of time on the face and hands, and on the skin overall. I have a figure finally, now I want to forestall the aging process just a little. Slow it down, and enjoy life. Dr. Greenberg works magic with the needle. She does Botox, and you don’t look like you have Botox. You look smoother, younger, the perpetual frown is gone, and, if you’re lucky, there will be a slight lift to your brows, which helps open up the area around your eyes. They’ll look a little bigger, a little brighter. But you won’t look like you’ve had anything done. You will look like you, and you will have the full range of expression. Dr. Greenberg works with fillers as well, and, again, the results are beautiful. Those pesky lines around your eyes and mouth will smooth out and melt away. It’s you, it’s all you, just with the clock cranked back a bit. And people will stop asking you whether you’re getting enough sleep. But aging is relentless. Came the day, about three years ago, when I could no longer bear how hollow my face had become. I had the look about me of starvation. The standard fillers won’t do much for such large hollowed out areas. Dr. Greenberg suggested Sculptra. Sculptra doesn’t just fill in lines, it adds volume. And it lasts, for up to two years or more. But it means, perhaps more so than with anything else, you must have absolute confidence in your surgeon. Me, I didn’t have to think twice. Three years later, and I look better than I could have ever imagined. No one knows I’m having “work” done. People tell me I look healthy. I wouldn’t let anyone else near my face. My doc’s touch is sure, her eye unerring. She’s simply the best.

Squeezed in a final visit to my favorite surgeon today before leaving the Bay area after 20 years and heading to Boston. As usual, Dr. Greenberg was lovely, and I am going to miss her extraordinary and sincere bedside manner. I have been a client of Dr. Greenbergs for over a decade since first visiting her to correct severe, unwarranted (no children yet) ptosis in my already size D breasts. She provided me with honest feedback and ensured I had realistic expectations about the outcome of any surgery, whether it were a lift etc. Ultimately, I went with a mid sized implant under the muscle, instead of going with a lift that might have resulted in extensive scarring. The outcome has been fantastic and 10 years later, I am still very happy. Dr. Greenberg also had a wonderful approach to “Mommy Makeovers” ! I went to see her after my first child to figure out how to get rid of the last bit of challenging chub on my tummy, thighs and flanks. I wanted a tummy tuck, and she helped me understand the procedure, and as usual in sincerely honest approach, helped me to see that a tummy tuck wasn’t necessary at all, that will a little bit of lipo in the right areas, and diet & exercise, I would have the results I came in looking for. Two years after that procedure, I am completely pleased – Dr. Greenberg is not just a surgeon, but an artist as well! She completely resculpted my waistline and gave me curves that were better than when I was 25! I am fortunate that in every consultation, Dr. G has been direct, honest and clear with what to expect, where other doctors that I had consulted with more or less agreed with me or told me what I wanted to hear. I have referred her to dozens of friends who have had similarly great expriences. When it comes to procedures like these, its crucial to find a doc with integrity, a good sense of humor, and willing to tell it like it is. A consummate professional, I can guarantee that I will be coordinating my future botox appointments (which is another A++ for the Dr.G!) during my business travels to the Bay Area!

It’s been a couple weeks since I had my breast augmentation and I am just elated. At first I was apprehensive about getting an incision under the breast since its scarring is more noticeable than around the areola. But it’s only been 2 weeks since my augmentation and my scarring is practically invisible when I face the mirror topless, all because Dr. Greenberg was able to make a small incision at the exact location under my breasts where it casts a thin shadow. Of course the scar is somewhat noticeable when lift up my breasts, but it has really only been 2 weeks and this is just a minor trade-off I was willing to take in order to get the wonderful results I’ve received from Dr. Greenberg. I am in love with my new set of twins. They are absolutely perfect. I feel so much more comfortable, confident and beautiful and it all now beams through my body language. I am just go glad proceeded with the breast augmentation, now I don’t have deal with skin irritations from stuffing my bra. This procedure took a load off my chest, ironic eh? haha! Thank you so much Dr. Greenberg. I am truly honored to be one of your patients!

A couple years ago, my girlfriends sat me down and gave me an intervention about the my overuse of makeup. They had a problem with how I caked raccoon eyes and plastered false lashes just to walk two blocks to the mailbox. I looked in the mirror and they were right. I realized I looked like a 5-dollar hooker trying to sport a dark blue smokey-eye look with bronzer 3 shades too dark- my face looks like I belonged in Jersey Shore, but my body was the same shade as a corpse. They said I had no choice but give up makeup and let my skin BREATHE, for just a week. After the first few days, I was ready to trade in my 3 year old nephew for the return of my makeup. But by the end of the week, I began to feel more comfortable in my skin and admiring this whole “natural” look. My only concern was that I had was my balding lash line from the constant tearing out of falsies. God, I love my honest friends. But why didn’t they grow the balls to give me an intervention sooner? My highly-arched eyebrows that made me look like I had a horrible face lift which probably intimidated them. Yes, that’s probably why. So, I originally found Dr. Greenberg through Yelp when I was looking for specials on Latisse, a powerful eyelash enhancer. Buy 1, get 1 free Latisse? My stereotypical inner Asian instincts say, HECK YES! Within 3 months & with the help of Latisse & an eyelash perm, my lashes began to swipe the ceiling cause they’re so long! I no longer cake on pounds of makeup nor use false lashes. A few simple swipes of mascara and I’d walk out of my house feeling like a million dollars. Everywhere I go, people of all ethnicities comment on how beautiful, thick and long my lashes are, and I refer them all to Dr. Greenberg. Ok enough about me, this review should be about Dr. Greenberg, (see how self-centered I am with my newfound lashes?). Since the dinosaurs roamed the earth, I have always known I wanted a breast augmentation. Growing up, I’d stuff my bra with anything within arms distance. In high school, I decided to work towards savings up to finally get this procedure done. Four jobs and 3 1/2 years later, I finally saved enough to make my dream come true! First, you must know, finding a plastic surgeon is like finding a soulmate, you have to date around to find out who’s truly, “the one.” You are exposing your innermost insecurities and blindly trusting this person to mold you a better version of yourself. I have invested a huge amount of my life working to be financially capable of paying for my own procedure and had declined countless nights out and shopping sprees in order to save for it. I’m typically the type to dive in head first when I want something. But I knew this procedure is life-changing and I wanted to consult with a good amount of doctors before settling with one. For the next few months I visited 8 other different surgeons who quoted me 5000-7000 dollars for silicone breast implant augmentation. One of those consultations was with Dr. Greenberg, who has heavy experience and extensive knowledge on this procedure, as she performs 50-70 cases a year. She spent a generous amount of time clearly explaining to me everything I needed to know about the procedure. She allowed me feel the different implant types and on top of that, sent me home with a kit that consisted of different implant samples so I could place them in my bra to see what size I’d prefer. She put my anxieties at ease and effectively helped me finally decide to get silicone implants, under the muscle and through the bottom of my breast. My boyfriend and I left her office knowing that she was, “the one.” However, her price was a bit steeper than I anticipated, so I couldn’t get the augmentation as soon as I wanted. (She does accept credit card, but I personally feel better paying in full. I’m sure she’d appreciate that as well.) It’s been almost half a year since my first consultation and I’m scheduled for my pre-op tomorrow. I’m typically a highly anxious person to begin with, but knowing that I will be taken care of by such masterful artist such as Dr. Lauren Greenberg, I hold nothing but pure excitement about my procedure. I am extremely privileged to have the opportunity to be her patient and I will update next month with great news of how my procedure goes

It’s been a week since I’ve gotten my breast augmentation and a minor liposuction procedure done and now I cannot look in the mirror without tears of joy streaming down my face. And it’s all thanks to Dr. Greenberg’s expert aesthetic eye. My confidence has amplified since I met her the first day I walked into her office to buy my first box of Latisse. She thoroughly worked with me over the years to help me finally knock out the kinks on my body that found dissatisfying. And the results exceeded my expectations. What attracted me the most is her concern for the future aesthetic beauty and well-being of her patients and puts into consideration if the procedure be beneficial as we age, or will it create complications. She could have easily pocketed thousands of dollars from me, but instead, told me not to get certain procedures done due to the high potential of dissatisfaction when my 30′s-40′s rolls around. She is the only surgeon that I consulted with who was blunt enough to admit this to me, along with a great deal of other helpful information. She’s not your typical plastic surgeon who is ready and willing to proceed with your extensive list of surgeries in exchange for your life savings without mentioning that 10-40 years down the road the drawbacks will most likely outweigh the temporary benefits. She treats her patients with patience and premium concern and care as though they are her daughter or sister. Her office is beautiful and cozy, which makes her patients feel comfortable. It doesn’t have that cold-plastic-highly-modern feel to it, as other plastic surgeons I consulted with had. What are you, as a patient, you paying for? The Picasso painting hanging on the wall of your surgeon’s waiting room? The high-rent of a room located in the heart of a rich city? Or are you paying for the flawless expertise, extensive knowledge and personable care of your doctor? That’s what I was looking to pay for, and those are just a few of the many great qualities that I saw in Dr. Lauren Greenberg. And on the side note, the ladies in the front desk, Patty and Marty, are warm-hearted sociable sweethearts. I highly recommend Dr. Greenberg to anyone who wants to enhance themselves and expect beautiful, natural and precise results that will leave you more than satisfied!

Dr. Greenberg is brilliant. Her work is impeccable and you won’t be disappointed. Like every plastic surgeon, she has her own idea of what would look right/beautiful and she is very honest and straight forward. She won’t let you look foolish and takes pride in making sure you come out looking as natural as possible. My results were perfect and I couldn’t ask for anything better. I strongly recommend her for your procedure. She’s personable and cares about her patients and at the same time flexible to work with you and make time for you whenever needed. GO TO HER! : )

“The only issue that prevented me from breast augmentation was the doctor. I looked at numerous sites, but I just couldn’t make the plunge. Then a friend admitted to having augmentation and a tummy tuck. She was thrilled with the outcome and looked perfect in her tightly fit t-shirt. My visit with Dr.Greenberg was exactly as my girlfriend described. She was informational, thorough, sweet, a good listener, and great at making me feel confident in my decision. She always gave me the option to change my mind, as women often do, and no question was silly or irrelevant.

I was so certain she was the one, I had surgery less than 2 weeks later. My experience was extremely positive and my breast are naturally FABULOUS!

Signed,

Eternally Grateful

Just over one month out and I am very, very pleased with the results. The breasts are just the right size, I’m so glad I didn’t let anyone convince me otherwise. And the lipo is still settling a bit, but looks lovely – Something I’m eager to maintain. The lipo was in part to even out some uneven fat distribution due to scoliosis, and I think she did a great job.
I chose Dr. Greenberg, after seeing a few other top surgeons in the bay area, because: She listened to my preferences (not wanting to go too big with the breasts) and didn’t try to push me to do anything I was uncomfortable with; She had me go home and practice wearing “trial implants” to test out the size; she seemed extremely knowledgeable and up to date with current research in plastic surgery; she explained things in a clear, succinct, and understandable manner; she answered all my questions; I had a feeling of trust and confidence in her; she caters to women who want a very natural look and feel; she was direct and honest about what kind of results I should expect; she and her receptionist were extremely accommodating with scheduling and communication when I had conflicts or was not easily contactable; she was kind and loving and made me feel safe and cared for; her price was fair; being treated near the Stanford Medical Center with a Stanford anesthesiologist made me feel safe.

“I saw Dr. Greenberg several months ago for a breast augmentation and I could not be happier with the results.  I was intent on finding a Dr. who would listen to me and what I wanted and not just tell me what I should get.  Through several consultations, I was able to work 1:1 with Dr. Greenberg on what my overall goal was and I came out of surgery with the exact results that I was going for.

Aside from the results, Dr. Greenberg was extremely patient with me while I made my decision, I did not feel rushed and I felt very confident going into surgery because every detail was explained to me.

I highly recommend Dr. Greenberg.  Her office is very welcoming, her work is impeccable, and Marty at the front desk is extremely friendly and always makes me feel at home when I walk in the office.”
