  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I've always wanted bigger breasts and have always...

I've always wanted bigger breasts and have always thought about getting implants. In the past year, I have lost 50 lbs and have worked so hard and changed my lifestyle. It's time to do this for myself! I'm nervous, but excited! I'm worried about not working out but I will get back on track as soon as I can!

Calling around, trying to find the least expensive...

Calling around, trying to find the least expensive mammography place around since I have to have one before the surgery and I don't have insurance right now. I have to get it done soon, since the surgery is coming up. I also have to get an EKG. Not sure why on that one, but it sounds like a good idea, so I'm not going to question it. I got my pre-op packet in the mail today and it has made me a little more nervous. But I know I can get through this and I will come out on the other side happy with my decision.

I'm still trying to find a less expensive...

I'm still trying to find a less expensive mammogram to get. Though I think I have to just bite the bullet and pay what I have to. I'm ready to get my prescriptions filled, making lists of what I will need. I'm getting a TT at the same time, so I'm planning on being out of commision for a while. I don't want to push myself too hard. Laying in bed last night thinking of the ride home. My doctor is about an hour away. I think my husband will have to take the car rather then the truck. I don't think I will be able to step up into the truck, though I know he would lift me up into it. So many things I have to think about.

I don't really understand the "rice" test to see what different size boobs look like. Does anyone know about this? I did try on some sizes at my consultation. Thinking I will go a D, but with the TT, it might be too much for me. I might bring my sister or my daughter with me to the sizing appointment. My husband, (who is a boob man and married me anyway!LOL), actually thinks I should go slightly smaller. I'm not too worried about size though. Don't want to be huge, but anything I get will feel huge. Just worried about getting back in the gym and not gaining weight while recuperating.

I will post some before pics in the next week or so.

Researched on internet and went for consultation. Read many reviews. Went for my consultation and Dr. Placik and his staff were so nice and helpful. His before and afters are amazing and I like that he has a YouTube channel that shows a lot of what he does. The whole staff is wonderful. Went for my one year post op and everyone was just as excited as I was. I started to cry looking at the befores and seeing my after! I'm so happy!
