Vegas Angel: “It’s going to be me up there on stage!”
November 4th, 2009
My name is Angel. My decision to have cosmetic surgery was one that I had contemplated for quite some time. Beginning with the birth of my daughter, (now 6) I began to feel my post-pregnant body, was not where it used to be. I couldn’t wear bikinis, low-cut tops, or anything somewhat revealing. It bothered me. Everyone would say, “you look great,†but I didn’t feel great. I waited until I lost all my baby weight and maintained it for 1 year. I took things slow, researching what I wanted to achieve with my potential new look. Since having a tummy tuck and a year after that, having breast augmentation, I feel like me again! It is amazing to look in a mirror and be able to smile back at myself again.
My final decision to choose Dr. Bashioum was based upon multiple referrals from friends and from family. I also visited with another plastic surgeon, but felt that a natural look was not at all what he had in mind. Dr. Bashioum always puts patient safety at the forefront. When I approached him to do both a tummy tuck and implants at the same time, he said that it is NOT in your best interest to do multiple cosmetic procedures of that nature. I felt so comfortable when I arrived in his office, as other patients have mentioned. His staff is discreet, courteous and put me at ease. Each time I have had a procedure, I have felt no nervousness. Dr. Bashioum is a perfectionist, and thoroughly goes over each procedure in detail. From pre-op to post-op, I felt that my decision to choose Dr. Bashioum was a great choice.
I can’t wait to be in Vegas with Dr. B and the KQRS Morning Show! It’s going to be a blast. I have no idea what to expect, but I’m ready for anything. I have listened in the past, and can’t stop laughing! Now the tables have turned, and it’s going to be me up there on stage! I’m counting the days, until we leave. So according to Elvis, “Viva Las Vegas!â€
Vegas Jill: “I’m Stacked!”
November 2nd, 2009
My name is Jill. Dr. Bashioum and I go way back. I first met Dr. Bashioum in 1991, as a college student looking to improve my body. I had done my research and he was my first choice for the job. I liked his augmentation results because they were the most natural looking. I was what you call “barely a B.†I went in for my complementary consult to ask questions, talk about size and get a price quote. I was so excited! I asked a ton of questions and the staff addressed every last one of them. I scheduled my surgery and the countdown began. The big day had come, was this really going to happen? I was so nervous. I needed to talk to Dr. B one more time. He assured me that they were all well rested and I was in good hands. Off to sleep I went…when I woke I was crying, but not in pain; I guess that is how I react to the anesthetic. The nurse was right there by my side and she said, “Are you ok?†They have wonderful bedside manner. Wow, I was thrilled! I went with the 325cc implant and was now a full “C†cup. That night Dr. Bashioum called me at home to see how I was feeling, I just love that about him. I had instant confidence, my bikini too, … and I loved it.
Skip ahead 14 years and two children later. I was in need of a little upgrade. The implants were still in good shape, but my skin was stretched out. I went back to Dr. Bashioum for another consult chat. He was the same, a great pleasant Doc. His thought was that I was borderline in needing a lift procedure; my thought was to only fill them back up. I had a big decision to make. We went with the refill option. The big day came and I was a nervous once again. Dr. B and his staff were awesome. They assured me again that they were well rested and they would see me when I woke up. Off to sleep I went, the refill augmentation was a 575cc implant which puts me at “DD†status (“DDD†on a chubby day!). Again he called that night at home to make sure I was comfortable. Well the rest is history and I am stacked!
Dr. Bashioum and his staff are all so wonderful. I have sent numerous friends and colleges to the Bashioum Cosmetic Surgery Center to get their plastic surgery work done. Thank you again for the fantastic work you have done on me.
Vegas, here I come!
