I had an amazing experience because of the research i did and the professional and experienced surgeon I picked. I went from an A to a full C (350 cc's in one and 340 in the other.

He went through the bellybutton. Though what was key in making this a great experience was the care I received at the surgery center and the follow up care. My doctor had a 1 day follow up, a 3 day follow up, 1 week, 3 weeks, 3 months, and in July I'm going for my 6 month check up. He made sure that the results were what I was looking for and if not he changed my at home regimen (massaging and pressure) so that they can look the way I want and feel as soft as possible. I was back to work 6 days after surgery and was ok.

After 3 days I stopped taking the Darvacet (yuck!) and just took tylenol. *Important Fact* I told him from the start that I'm extremely sensitive (Nausea, sweats, spinning) to anesthesia, antibiotics and narcotic pain killers which are everything they give you and he gave me Emend, it's a prescription anti-nausea medication that blocks the nausea receptors in your brain preventing the entire process. It lasts almost 3 days and I highly recommend it for anyone with a similar history.

The only negative thing i experienced is that I lost a little bit of sensitivity in my right breast past the right side of my nipple, the skin always feels numb and it's about the size of a key lime. Other than that I am completely happy with my breasts, they're perfect and so was this entire experience.
