You're listening to Where Before Meets After. What do they feel like if you're the patient, poking yourself?

 

Dr. Daniel (00:08):
Well, the interesting thing with the implants is that I think the density or the feel of the implants is very, very close to the native feel or density of breast tissue, and so it's almost like it's not there. After augmentation, other types of implants, the implant might move around in the pocket, you can kind of feel something shifting in there. It's a different way of really making the pocket for the Motiva implant. It's very similar to the old Replicon implants that I referenced earlier that I used in training. You wanted to make that pocket pretty tight so that implant didn't move around very much. But the cohesiveness or the cross-linking of the gel, for example, is such that it is really closely approximating native breast tissue density. I think many times we're never able to even tell that there's an implant in there in today's world. So always, always getting better, like I said earlier.

Plastic Surgeon

Dr. Lee B. Daniel describes himself as “a plastic surgeon second, a good human being first.” With over three decades of experience helping people from all walks of life, he connects with patients on a personal level, ensuring they’re always treated as individuals, not just procedures.

Growing up on a large Kentucky farm with four younger sisters, Dr. Daniel learned responsibility early, inspired by his father, a Marine drill sergeant turned doctor. Even in high school, he felt drawn to plastic surgery, combining his natural creativity, spatial awareness, and dexterity, a skill set that made the field feel like it chose him.

In 1999, Dr. Daniel moved to Eugene, Oregon, to open his private practice, introducing advanced techniques to the area. He later expanded with his med spa, The Spa Side, and soon after, The Guy Side, offering treatments specifically for men. These med spas complement his surgical expertise, offering non-surgical options to enhance results.

Dr. Daniel does it all: face, breast, and body, and loves every bit of it.
