Need SP Advice/Referral - Breast Implants

[2TH GUY]

A friend of mine is very interested in getting breast implants and possibly having some liposuction done as well. She has a consult appointment in Victoria next month. She booked with that office because it was the earliest she could be seen by any of the ones she contacted. This is probably not the best way to choose a plastic surgeon, given that the outcome rests almost entirely upon the skills and experience of the person doing the work.
I'm asking for recommendations from anyone but especially SP's. Someone in Victoria would be ideal but Vancouver is probably a possibility too. Any info on cost and healing time would be appreciated too.
I don't know how appropriate it is to use names in an open forum like this, so please PM me with anything you think could be helpful. Any names or info sent would be kept in the strictest confidence.

Thanks

Dana gave me the name of a good doctor in Victoria for a friend of mine...sorry I can't remember his name. The doctor had a very nice website too.

Dr. Warren on Broadway near Arbutus (in Vancouver). I believe its called the Broadway Health Centre or something like that. For a sample of the work, go see "Olivia" at Mugs & Jugs in New West (she said she was a regular there). Her's are C/D's, textured saline, over the muscle, inserted through armpit. She has thick skin, so it minimized rippling. Very well done and I honestly could not tell they were fake... and I consider myself well educated on the matter.

I have a dancer friend that had her's done. She did lots of research and chose http://www.gelfant.com/

I don't have boobs, but I feel qualified to respond because I've seen more augmented boobs than you can possibly imagine, and ask the doctor's name almost every time. These are all in Van:

*Dr Warren is known for very natural looking jobs- he would be on my top 3 list to consult with if I ever decided to do it. Heseems to really know what he's doing- they are artists, you know!

*Dr Fitzpatrick has done one fabulous job (the only one I've seen of his/hers)

*Dr Clugston did the best job I ever saw

*Dr Mosher has done a lot of good work

But the biggest factor is how much is already there. Saggy boobs (usually a woman who's had kids) look good after a boob job; perkies on a slender frame will look really really fake with implants, silicone or not. Well, fake to someone who can tell- men can never tell.
