The Breast Augmentation Masterclass: Everything You Need to Know Before Getting Breast Implants

Monique Ramsey gathers the smartest guidance from LJCSC's plastic surgeons and the women who chose them.  Dr. Diana Breister Ghosh compares Motiva and Natrelle, explains who should pick a round implant over an ergonomic one, and makes the case for placement on top of the muscle. Dr. Salazar-Reyes covers silent ruptures, why the $2,500 MRI rarely happens, and the in-office Butterfly iQ3 ultrasound that now handles implant monitoring for $450. Marissa, Kayla, and San Diego radio host Laura Cain share what recovery is really like, from sleeping restrictions to a hematoma scare handled over a weekend. Stay for the reason feeling fantastic three days after surgery makes Dr. Salazar-Reyes nervous, and why a solo trip to the grocery store is the classic mistake.
