Dr. McLaughlin is not absolutely not the surgeon to pick for nipple reconstruction. I got surgery done with Dr. McLaughlin for my bifid/split nipple, with the goal of making it look more normal. Dr. M greeted me with massive confidence, repeatedly stating she could stitch it up in no time, no problem. Blind confidence really, which fooled me. Unfortunately she failed. The first surgery did not heal correctly- actually looked worse than it did originally.
She honorably then did the surgery again about 3 months later, for free, as were all the following check ups. She had a lot of integrity and I do respect that. However, you do not seek out a surgeon for personality traits alone-you seek them based off skill. In my opinion, Dr. M lacks skill surrounding nipple reconstruction. I wish I had sought out a surgeon who specialized in this.
I was 17 the first consultation I had with Dr. M, and her bubbly personality and confidence made me trust her. I should have done better research. She had never done this surgery before, and it’s apparently rare, but she made it seem like a walk in the park. $1000 and 5 months of uncomfortable healing later, and my nipple now looks botched and ugly. After undergoing 2 surgeries, I’ve now built up scar tissue and am left with an unnatural looking nipple-dramatic crease separating it laterally as if it’s two nipples, with crinkly edges that do not connect at one side.
At our final checkup, Dr. M said “That’s the best I can do.” I believe that. So if you’re specifically looking for a plastic surgeon who can fix a nipple issue, find one that specializes in it, and get it done right the first time so you can rest easy.
My experience with Dr. Emily McLaughlin and her staff has been amazing. I met them when my dear friend Kelly recommended I attend a meet and greet event. I was able to speak with all of the staff and enjoyed learning about Dr Emily’s surgical/procedures available along with her line of gorgeous skin care products. I immediately felt like I would be in good hands. I'm still greeted each visit with a lovely piece of chocolate & a hello from the staff.
West Magnolia plastic surgery and “The Retreat” Med Spa is my favorite place to go for some “me” time.
The nurses/medical assistants and technicians are just as pleasant and compassionate as Dr. McLaughlin. Her staff is well educated and quite talented in each of their specialties.
Dr. McLaughlin has a great staff and that combination works!
Dr. Emily is an extraordinary Plastic surgeon and speaks to you with honest clarity, backed up with the many years of her experience, you can rest assured your questions have been answered and you will learn to have realistic expectations. She will guide you and advise surgical procedure that would work best for each individual client. She takes the time to pay attention & listen patiently to all my concerns. She is my number one Plastic Surgeon.
Huge shout out to Melissa! She is a true artist and helped me feel and look a touch younger. The combination of Dysport and fillers she recommended was a tiny bit of magic because I immediately felt younger, more confident and refreshed. Kelsey is an amazing aesthetician and I have received several different facials and laser treatments from her. I feel wonderfully pampered and well taken care of.
I have had 2 surgical procedures with Dr Emily and I’m lucky and grateful to my friend Kelly for recommending West Magnolia Plastic Surgery and Med Spa.
Dr. McLaughlin has chosen a lovely caring and attendant staff and I really appreciate the fact that I receive appropriate time with every visit.
I always say I’m not trying to look younger, I just DON’T want to look older! Can’t wait for my next visit….
