I had breast implants over the muscle 10 years ago in my mid 20's. I wanted a lift at the time but my PA said implants would cause no scar and give the appearance of a lift. I went from a small B to a full C. I was very happy with the procedure. However I had another child (unexpectedly) a few... Read more

I had my surgery yesterday. But this has been a process that has been a very long time coming. I decided not to post anything until I had my surgery. Mainly because I did not want my doctor reading about what I thought at the time. Well the knife has been used and I am on the road to... Read more

I am a 30 year old mother of three, ages 9, 6, and 2. I am 5'8 and 135 pounds. I wear a 34C but I do not fill it up at all, a 34B causes the excess skin to overflow though. My breasts have always had a sag to them. When I was 20 I went for a consult for breast augmentation hoping to fix the... Read more

I was a late bloomer, but once I got them my boobs came in with a vengeance. I went from an A to a D cup one summer in high school. Although they were large, I never thought they were pretty. They were always droopy and my areolas were always larger than my friends. I'm 5'8" and my weight has... Read more

I have always hated my saggy patties and at 35 with one child, it is time! I'm 5'1 135lbs. My ps and I agree that I am currently a sm/mid C. I definitely need a lift but I am torn on implants. PS noted that I have a lot of breast tissue. I would like to be a full firm C/small D. I am afraid... Read more

I wanted a breast lift because I'd recently had my 12-year-old saline implants removed. My breasts were pretty deflated so I wanted to get them lifted back up. Dr Horndeski has a great office staff. They are -super- prompt at answering questions, and everyone in the office was nice. I... Read more

After 2 pregnancies and breastfeeding my ladies were starting to line up with my belly button ???? I decided to have surgery earlier in May (3 weeks ago to the day) just 6 months after my second baby was born. The recovery process hasn't been smooth sailing but all the same I'm glad I went...

I am so pleased with my results. I wanted my breasts to look how they did prior to having children and that is exactly what I got. I was 18 when I had my first child and it ravished my body. I have wanted and have been preoccupied with wanting plastic surgery since I was 18 years old. I am now... Read more

Hello ladies! I've been following the many inspirational stories on this site for quite some time now. Now that I have finally scheduled a surgery date for my breast lift, I figure it's time for me to give back. I've never been happy with my large sagging breasts; at only 24 and with no... Read more

Hi girls! So, here's my history. I am 21 year old, no child, around 5,4 of height and 137lbs, living in Brazil! Since my breasts started growing, felt like they should not be growing like that. I lost around 26lbs 2 years ago, never been really heavy, just a little overweight, and even... Read more

Breast Lift done yesterday. Surgery was not bad at all compared to my tummy tuck 2 years ago. I didn't have to stay overnight this time which was great. Surgery was at 1pm and I was back home by 9pm. I took one dose of pain meds last night, but haven't needed them at all today. I was able to... Read more

I had assemetrical breasts, so decided on implants. Lift was needed. My left breast stitches have been rest itched 3 times- and every time the skin surrounding it splits. My ps seems unconcerned/ says it will heal and a small revision may be needed. (The scars are HUGE!) I regret doing this and... Read more

Naturally large breast were both a blessing and a curse. They were wonderful when I was 16 but by 25 they had already begun to sag. After an accident in my 30's I gained 50lb which took my 36dd to 40e. When I finally got all the weight back off (I'm now 5'6" and 135lbs) I had very little breast... Read more
