Santa Monica, California (CA) Breast Augmentation by
Steven Teitelbaum, M.D.
Dr. Steven Teitelbaum Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Dr. Steven Teitelbaum, a board certified plastic surgeon in Santa Monica, CA, believes that because aesthetic surgery is voluntary, and arguably even frivolous, there is a unique burden placed upon the doctor - and the patient - to be safe, prudent, and conservative. Though no plastic surgeon would openly disagree with that statement, he adheres to it stronger than most. It guides his philosophy from his lengthy initial breast augmentation consultations, to successive pre-operative contacts with the patient, to the techniques he uses, and finally his post-operative and on-going care. 

Sometimes a patient will come in for a consultation and express that they feel nervous. Dr. Teitelbaum always tells them that they needn't feel nervous- that this is voluntary surgery. That they should keep seeing doctors until finally everything clicks- that they like the doctor, they like the office, they like the staff - and that they start to get enthusiastic about surgery. It is natural for an intelligent person to always have some apprehension, but eventually the nervousness will be gradually replaced by enthusiasm, and when - and only when that happens - should they proceed with breast enhancement surgery. Dr. Teitelbaum is anxious to help you in your process to decide if and what aesthetic surgery is right for you!
