5 Success Stories from Local Breast Augmentation Patients

For over two decades, our team at The Lucas Center has helped East Tennessee patients of all ages and backgrounds with the same overarching goal: to increase their confidence in the skin they’re in. And while each patient’s needs and path are unique, one of our most popular procedures for boosting women’s confidence is a breast augmentation (aka “boob job”). 

Wherever you’re in the exploration of plastic surgery — maybe you’re just dipping your toe into research, maybe you’re searching for the right surgeon, or perhaps you’re basically ready to book your breast surgery — we know it can be enormously reassuring to see and hear success stories from local patients like yourself. 

So, here’s a look at some real-life patient experiences with breast augmentation surgery at The Lucas Center, including why they chose to pursue the procedure and why they ultimately chose Dr. Jay Lucas as their surgeon…

It’s Not Just About Breasts, It’s About Confidence

Every woman’s breasts are unique, and her motivations for a breast augmentation are, too. Some women aim primarily to increase volume, while others seek to balance proportions. 

Some, like Sarah, have experienced the toll that childbearing and lactation can have on their breasts. Here’s how Sarah (with Dr. Lucas’s help) successfully rebuilt her confidence:

“The logistics of breastfeeding four children — everything that goes into that — I really wanted a change and wanted a boost of confidence… After I had (the surgery), I felt completely confident. Actually, it helped me become a lot more confident in my decision-making. That seems strange, right? You would think, why would boobs do that? But it’s true. Something just as small as that sort of thing gives women so much more confidence in being able to conquer the world.”

For Bailee, The Lucas Center’s VECTRA 3D technology allowed her to visualize her specific results after surgery so she could move forward with confidence:

“It was cool to be able to use the VECTRA 3D to see an idea of what my breasts would look like before, and then see what they would look like after, with the breast augmentation, and how it would look on my body — rather than seeing it on someone else’s body who’s totally different.”

Throughout the whole process, Bailee felt comfortable and well-cared for (more important confidence boosters!), and she’s thrilled with the results: 

“The whole team is so welcoming. It’s nice when you can go into a place, and everyone’s welcoming, everybody can answer your questions, or they’ll refer you to somebody else to answer your questions. And Dr. Lucas did an amazing job… He was just extremely helpful…
I’m extremely happy with my results. I couldn’t be more happy.”

Why Dr. Lucas and The Lucas Center?

When we ask our patients what drew them to The Lucas Center for their breast augmentation procedures, two main themes come up over and over again: someone they know told them about their own great experience, or they saw someone else’s beautiful results. 

Kathleen recalls why she came to The Lucas Center:

“A close friend of mine had the same procedure done that I wanted to have done, and her results were fabulous.”

Sarah had a similar introduction to Dr. Lucas and his team: 

“My best friend actually went to The Lucas Center, and seeing how they treated her during the entire process really made me gravitate toward The Lucas Center. Dr. Lucas and their entire team are extremely attentive to your needs, and they make you feel like you’re the only patient in the entire building while you’re here.”

Regardless of how they first come to us, after surgery, many patients are thrilled with their results and the type of care they received from our team. 

Here’s what Krista, a happy patient who reviewed us, wrote after her breast augmentation: 

“The Lucas Center absolutely blew me out of the water with customer satisfaction. I, personally, had the absolute best experience with the entire staff, scheduling and payments, and also with the surgeon, Dr. Lucas himself.

I had a breast augmentation and it looks stunning on me. I HIGHLY recommend The Lucas Center for that family feel you always want when you’re looking to further your own confidence and happiness, without judgment or misunderstanding. My breasts look incredible and if I ever needed or wanted anything more, I will always return to this establishment, this beautiful staff, and this amazing surgeon. PLEASE go to The Lucas Center for all your cosmetic needs, they are AMAZING!”

Another of our patients, Jennifer, shared this about her breast surgery results: 

“It’s been about seven months since my procedure. I could not be happier. I have never had more confidence in my body in my entire life. If you are thinking about having any procedures done, I would highly recommend The Lucas Center. They are top-notch, there for you in any form or fashion that you could ask for, and always make you feel welcome.”

Choosing a Qualified Plastic Surgeon Who Listens to You

Ready to embark on your own plastic surgery journey? Even if you don’t have a personal connection with someone who can recommend a cosmetic surgeon, you can use these tips during an initial consultation or interview to find the best fit for you: 

• First and foremost, you’ll want to ensure the surgeon is board-certified.
• Watch to see if they take the time to listen to your concerns and needs. 
• Review before-and-after pictures to see if they deliver natural-looking results you like. 
• Check out their Google reviews and listen to real patient stories to learn more about others’ experiences with the surgeon, office, and results.
