Going Bigger!! - Biloxi, MS

WORTH IT$3,500

I am 23 years old. I have a 3 Year old and I am 5'6" 122 pounds. I am a 34B currently. While I was pregnant and all through breast feeding my son I was a D or bigger. Since stopping breast feeding and losing about 25 pounds in the last year I have lost all size in my breast and unfortunately they look saggy. I met with my PS last Thursday and we decide that I would get 390cc implants and fill to 420cc. He said I could accommodate larger, however I do not want to be to big. I want to be big enough that I look proportionate but not so big that when I walk in a room people are like look at those, Definitely Fake! I am afraid now that 420cc will not be big enough. My husband of course thinks otherwise he feels that 420cc will be plenty. I am getting saline with the incision under the breast and placed under the muscle.

Well, at least your husband isn't pressuring you to go bigger! :) Larger implants do have a higher rate of complications, so there's that. What size is right for you all depends on your frame/tissues, etc. Here's what some doctors have to say about choosing an implant size.

Angiemcc, I did not realize that larger implants came with more complications. Glad I know now. I really think I will be happy with the size I have decided to get. My surgery is scheduled for July 18th and I am ready. I can't wait.

Okay, only Two weeks and two days until surgery. I can not wait. I go for my pre-op on the 12th and going to try on the sizers again. Still undecided on whether or not I am going to go bigger than 420cc. I just don't want to regret not going bigger but still want to appear natural. I am beyond ready for boobs. I had them while pregnant and breastfeeding and loved it. I am ready to appear like a woman and fill out shirts that I refuse to wear now because of how small I am. I will add before photos soon.

Okay, I am a week and one day until my surgery. I am super excited and already so anxious I am not sleeping that great at night. I am still not sure which size I am going to get. Right now I am getting 390cc filled to 420cc. I am not positive that will be big enough but am also terrified to go any bigger and look like Dolly Parton. :) I am having my surgery on Wednesday the 18th and plan to go back to work on Monday the 22nd. I work in an office at a desk all day so I am hoping that is enough down time. I am posting before pictures today.

Hiya courtsey~ I think 420 cc's will look good on you. I am 5"10, only went with 304 cc's and have currently wear a C/D cup bra. Angie is correct, larger implants can cause more complications like double bubble and capsular contracture. Less is More in my opinion! Good luck with the upcoming surgery ;-)
