Considering..? - Bakersfield, CA

I would definately go to the consultation, it can't harm anything to be more informed. I like you was very hesitant but after I went to the 2nd consultation I was sure I had found my surgeon. I am not scheduled until July but I believe it will be worth it. Good luck!!

It was the same for me, although I am assuming that I am older than you now.
But growing up I had small breasts and they were always firm and perky.
I recently became self-conscious of mine- (prob. for diff reasons than you)
and decided to get them done because life is just too short! lol

I went from a 38B (I am a bit heavy) to a full C, maybe small D. I am not allowed to wear bras yet, so I really dont know exactly my size. But I can wear my old Aerie bras (34 C). They were too big before, now I fill them out all the way.

But anyways, I am soo glad to have gotten them done! I am able to hide mine no big deal, or show them when I want (push up bras or low cut shirts). I fill out my clothes so much more nicely now! I am hoping that I will have a nicer time bra shopping too once I get the green light. I always had a prob before since i didnt have much projection.

I am assuming you are very young (20's??), so i would advise you not to go too big as you will likely have children which will stretch them out, etc. And prob plan on a revision later after all children are done. Or dont get boobs now and wait till that day comes. Your choice.

What are your reasons for hesitating?

CVRN - Thanks for the comment. If you remember, let me know your progress and how you feel after.

scrappy37 - You are too sweet. I am actually 40 years old and have had only one child. Not planning any more.

I'm glad you have shared your story with me because this is kind of a big decision to make. Your story sounds close to mine, and I just want to make the right decision. I can tell you are happy with yours and that you are glad you got them done. It gives me better direction with my decision in knowing woman are happier afterwards.

I just want to really feel good about myself and not self-conscious even though we should not care what others think. We woman understand why we want breasts. I just want to feel like a woman as opposed to a little kid.

Once again, thank you for sharing your comments and story. My consultation is in less than two weeks, and I want to be sure I am doing the right thing. Can't go back once it's done. I really just want to feel better.

Hilarious! Your body looks really young! I guess being in shape helps with that! =) LOL
Well hell girl! If you are done having kids then go for it!!
One of my biggest reasons is that although i was saggy saggy, like some women- i had gained a lot of weight, lost a lot of muscle mass and they were not looking so hot anymore. I was feeling a bit of a mid-life crisis I guess. And decided it was time. I just graduate from college and decided to start my new life with a little more pizzaz.

I agree, we shouldnt care what others think- but that is sometimes easier than done. Luckily for me I dont have too many judgemental people in my life. It is not always easy to bear derisive comments from people, but if you get them a reasonable size where people dont immediately think "OMG look at that chicks boobs" then noone will know. Some girls like that attention though. Nothing wrong with that, but I like to be able to hide them.
I think mine still look a lot like my natural breast, although I have noticed my nipples are a little bigger (no big deal since mine weren't that big before), and some veins are more pronounced. I dont mind that too much either as i dont think they really stand out.
I think you will really be ahppy you did it. Just make sure you find a good doc!

Read as many reviews on each doc as possible, and you can find if there are any or have been any lawsuits against that doc. Dont skimp on those two things. And really look closely on before and after pics.
Also, I recommend the rapid recovery technique. Why suffer if you dont have to? That is what i got and boy- what a difference in recoveries! Try to find a doc who does that, but if not- no big deal.

Keep me posted on what you decide to do! Good luck!
