(Previously) I'm grabbing it. I'm inserting it.
(Previously) So, it doesn't actually touch the skin.
(Previously) Kellerfunnel!
(Previously) (Warning! The scar takes the shape of a line on the underside of the breast) So, I must do my best to make the scar into a very thin line. As invisible as possible.
(Previously) All done!
(Previously) - What are you doing? - I'm sleeping?
(Previously) You're sleeping? And I'm disturbing you! Come on.
The Plastic Age - Documentary
Dr. Radu Ionescu - Aesthetic Surgeon
Breast Augmentation - Each Step Documented
- The Plastic Age - "WOW" Episode 6
- If a woman wants implants, how should she pick a doctor? - First, I think this is a very personal choice.
The patient – this is something that happens all over the world – should first get some references from people who had had implants done.
She should listen to other people's opinions. OK?
She gets some references, that means two or three doctors, let's say. It's a common knowledge thing.
If you're interested in this, you learn about two or three doctors.
The second step is to visit the website of the Romanian Association of Plastic Surgeons – it only takes 5 minutes –
and check if those doctors are actually plastic surgeons – licensed, recognized and in actual practice.
She should make sure they don't specialize in other types of surgery.
The third step is to visit the websites of those doctors, understand their principles, see some pre-surgery and post-surgery results.
After she does all that, after she sees the photos and decides which ones suit her the best,
she should book some appointments.
In my opinion, reading testimonials is a bad idea because testimonials are very subjective.
- They contain a lot of hidden advertising. - My thought exactly!
Advertising campaigns. Those are hidden advertising campaigns. I don't think testimonials are the best source of information right now.
- If you get testimonials from friends, that's different, right? - That's what I said!
The best thing is to talk to someone you know and who underwent surgery.
She can see the actual result and, later, she can look at the photo galleries of the doctors' websites.
The worst thing is to trust the media and to go to some doctor because he worked on this or that celebrity.
I think that's pure advertising.
- I see. - And patients can end up scammed.
- Tomorrow, after the morning rounds, you'll be free to go home. - OK.
Tomorrow I'll see you at 8.30 AM. Come here. At 8.30 AM. Then you'll have breakfast. Your mother should have the first look.
Mother! Look!
- Say something. - It looks beautiful.
- You were scared I might get something huge, right? - The breasts are swollen now.
- Can I see now? - Yes.
Wooow! That looks so beautiful! I can't believe it! I adore them!
- You like them? - A lot!
Good. Now, I have something to show you. I brought both breasts to the same level. OK?
They're level. The areolas are at the same level and, as you remember, one was higher than the other.
- One was higher. - The natural slope. You're not wearing two balloons.
Now turn to the side – this is still swollen – and touch here.
- Go ahead. - Really?
- Touch there. Don't be scared. - Wow!
You can feel it's swollen, OK? I told you about blocking those nerves.
- Remember? - Yes. And I don't feel anything when you touch me.
- Doctor, stop doing that! I'm scared! I don't feel anything! - Oh, I'll keep doing it.
- I can't feel anything! - Now listen.
- I'm listening carefully. - Think about this:
it's not normal to undergo surgery and, a couple of hours later, to have someone touch you there and feel nothing.
- True. - OK?
You're not healed yet. It's not over. You have a wound inside. You must be very careful. OK?
You feel a swelling in the area between the breasts and, therefore, tend to hunch forward.
- That's true. - I want you to keep your back straight, because there's no danger.
(Warning! Patients are advised to keep their backs straight ) I want you to move your shoulders.
- I'm allowed to move like that. - That's right. Look at your breasts.
- It's so weird. I don't feel anything. - I know. But they're not moving either.
- Do you think they're too big? - No!
- They look perfectly natural! - They're not small. Let's make that clear.
- That's why I asked the question. Do you think they're too big? Too small? - No, they are absolutely…
- She was nervous at first. - Mother, do they look big relative to my body? Do they look weird? No.
I'll tell you something weird, teach Codin something. This is where the cutting stopped. Remember the drawing?
When I touch you here, you don't feel anything. You don't feel anything. Now here, it feels slightly sore.
- Yes. - I could not block the nerves I could not reach.
I understand.
Tomorrow I want you to call Dana from my office, you've met her, and tell her I told you to schedule an appointment in one week.
Dana will tell you the exact day and hour. And every time you visit us, you bring this wonderful service book. OK?
- Wow! - It will include your name, date of surgery, the first appointment is the 21st.
Every time you come in, Dana will stamp your book, like they do at car shops, and write the date and hour of the next
appointment: 7 days, 14 days, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, once per year for the first five years. OK?
You bring this with you. Moving on. Tomorrow, put ice on your breasts. We showed you how to do it.
Up, down and on the sides. Tomorrow you'll spend the whole day in bed and put ice on your breasts.
(Warning! Ice must be applied for at least an hour and a half every day for a week, beginning with the second day after the operation) The day after tomorrow, you start applying ice for an hour and a half every day, for a week.
this in the evening. If, for instance, it's the weekend and you're staying in, you can use the ice for three hours.
It won't hurt you. The mandatory minimum is an hour and a half, to help bring the swelling down.
The medication is listed in the prescription. And now let's start on the rules.

And without exerting myself.
(Rule 5 – The only sleeping position allowed for the first month is on one's back.) You will sleep solely on your back for a month.
After one month, you can sleep on your side. You can sleep on your stomach only after six months, when the final result is in.
This is your warranty certificate. OK? This is a card containing the implants' serial numbers. 450-450.
- The important bit: you need to visit this website to activate your warranty. - OK.
- This is your job. - Absolutely
The website will ask your name, date of operation, the surgeon's name and so on. After that, it will ask for some implant data: the left one, the right one.
This is the serial number. For the left one and the right one. This is the activation code for each implant: the letters D and F.
- I'll see you tomorrow morning. - Tomorrow.
- Have a good evening. I'll leave you now. - It's amazing here. The room is painted mauve and pink, just the way I like it!

(Next) The operation was incredible. There was no blood at all. He said the operation would take 90 minutes. It took… 88.
This process takes a long time. First comes the surgery, then the recovery period. It takes a year for the breast to stabilize completely.
A month has passed since the operation. Let's have a look.
