"I'm 26 - and I wanted a breast augmentation because I wanted to fill out a bra! Purely cosmetic reasons, really," shares Beth*. "I've wanted to get implants since I was 18. At 26, I was ready." "Now" was the right time; she just needed the right doctor.

Beth was born and raised in Santa Clarita, so when it came to getting referrals for a plastic surgeon, she turned to her community for answers. "My mom owns a local beauty salon, where I've worked for about eight years. We talked to a bunch of ladies who loved their cosmetic-surgery results and so many were patients of Dr. Heller, so I knew that he was the first to speak to for a consultation. The women I talked to just adore him."

After the consultation, Beth did too. "I realized, during my initial appointment, that I just couldn't imagine going to anyone else. Dr. Heller is just so kind, warm and capable. He answered every question I had in a way that made me feel so confident. He's incredibly knowledgeable and I knew he was the best surgeon for me. I didn't feel it necessary to meet with anyone else," she explains.

"I knew I was making the right choice before I went into surgery, but after I saw my results, it was just so obvious that Dr. Heller was the best option. I feel so awesome and am more than pleased. I am much more confident! And my family and friends are very impressed, too," says Beth. "I went from an A cup to a C cup and they are very, very natural looking. We decided on the Gummy Bear implants and I'm glad I did. You don't look at me and think that I had breast augmentation, which is the look I wanted."

"To insert the implant, I went under the breast," says board-certified cosmetic surgeon Dr. Heller. "Just a tiny incision was necessary and after healing, it will be nearly impossible to notice even the tiniest hints of a scar. Gummy Bear silicone implants come in hundreds of sizes and shapes, so I was able to select a rounded implant that would give Beth the natural look she wanted while also complimenting her overall body shape. The results look like she was born with these breasts - and that was the goal."*Not her real name.
