Hi everyone! So I'm getting my BA on Dec. 17th!...
WORTH IT$6,500
Hi everyone!
So I'm getting my BA on Dec. 17th! I'm super excited, but somewhat nervous. I'm obviously pretty young (20 years old), but have wanted to do this since middle school, literally! (As crazy as that sounds.) I finally decided within the past year that I wanted to do it for sure, and contacted a PS.
I have had a previous PS procedure, I got my nose fixed when I was 17. Great decision and experience, my PS for that, Dr. Dolksy in PA did an amazing job, but he retired recently! Therefore, I decided to contact someone my parents know.
I've had two appointments with Dr. Kim in Exton, PA. One was the consultation and one was to make final decisions and get my scripts. Both have been great, and I decided I'm going from a small A to a full C (350-400 cc's). He is using a wider implant to make sure that I don't get the "gap" that some women get when they get their BA's.
Any person that has any questions or advice, I would greatly appreciate it. I am not too worried about the pain, but how is the healing? I know you have to do massages, what has been your experiences with them? (Painful, annoying, how long did you do it for, etc.)?
Thanks so much, all! I'll keep you updated.

So excited, but nervous...
So my surgery is less than a month away. I am so excited, but so nervous. I know there can be a lot of complications with breast implants, even though people rarely talk about them. Has anyone on here had complications that they can talk about from experience?
Also... I know a lot of people are like, you're so young to be doing this... but I'm in my prime! I don't mean to offend anyone, but this is the time of my life I want to look really good. Of course, I understand why other people do it after pregnancy or when they are older, but I really want to get it now. I have wanted this for a while. I have done a lot of research, too... this isn't an overnight decision I made. I know a lot of people say to look at the explant section, which I have, but I still think it will be worth it in the end.
I also talked to my doctor and made it clear that I don't want that big "gap" in between that a lot of women get with breast implants, especially skinnier women. He's doing a wider implant to make sure that this does not happen.
I am also adding some before pictures, since one person asked. I am adding some wish pictures, too.

The 350's will look great on you! Are you going with hp or moderate projection?
November 20, 2013
Thank you, I hope so! I have been thinking of going 400 because I am getting Mod proj and they are fuller, obviously. I am going to consult again with the PS before my final surgery... But I don't want them huge or too small-- it's a hard decision!!!

Your last wish pic is Lucy Pinder. She was my wish boobs too. For reference, hers are a 34g natural.
November 21, 2013
Yes... I researched hers for two years. They were my wish boobs too. Right now I'm measuring a 34f /g
November 21, 2013
That's why most Dr won't discuss cup size or even ccs. It's about how you want to look.
November 22, 2013
My doctor just asked what I wanted and then went from there. He told me to try ricers by didn't stress the CC's or anything besides that. I trust him and think he will get me the look I want.
November 21, 2013
hello I am in the newtown square area but also looking in exton I would like to meet people to talk to that are in the same situation as me and can share the worried times
November 22, 2013
yes I plan on scheduling a consultation... right now i only have two set up one for Dr Bottger which is the main Dr I am looking at right now. he is literally a 10 minute drive from my house which might be very helpful
November 21, 2013

Question about healing time & work...
So, I go to college right now and I just got a little side job at Panera Bread to have some extra money since this surgery drained me practically lol. Two weeks after my surgery I will be back at work... And obviously it's a very high pace high movement environment. My question is whether I will be able to lift things up or not by then. What do you guys think? I was not worried at all, but some people have said they still have a significant amount of pain at two weeks when moving too much. Responses are very appreciated :)

I work for Frito lay and my job is super physically demanding... I'm taking 2 weeks off and my ps said I should be fine. Hope that helps!
November 25, 2013
Sweet! Thank you. I figured I will be okay from people I know personally who have had it done, but after reading some reviews I was a bit worried. My PS also said I should be okay around two weeks, but you never know. Thanks so much!

I was back at work as a PE teacher and basketball coach on post op day 2. The day after surgery I had basketball practice. Lots of standing, talking, demonstrating. The third day post op I coached my cross country team at regionals, carried a back pack (stupidly) and walked Waaay too much over hills and around the cross country course. Our team did great..People tried to hug me..oh idk how I made it through those first days. I live a fast paced life, and could NOT take time off or people would notice. So, I think two full weeks off will be fine. I worked in the restaurant industry in college and remember it's demands. At two weeks post op, however I felt very back to myself. I did daily stretches to increase my arms range of motion. I looked like a slo-mo cheerleader but it helped! I stayed away from lifting things more than twenty pounds. I had to lift the dog food bag (30lbs) once, but.. I was ok. You'll know what you are comfortable with. Your body will tell you. I think it's a fabulous time in your life to get them. Im 30, and trust me, it won't get easier! You'll get busier and the financial demands will get harder. If I would've had the money, I would've done it earlier! If you are mentally tough and prepared for the discomfort/pressure of implants you'll be fine at two weeks. Follow your surgeons advice. And, last tip.. Be as physically in shape before as possible. I feel like that helped in my recovery. I am only three weeks post op and have been ellipticalling/biking/walking/doing lunges since one week. I ran today after being cleared by my surgeon. The recovery after the first few days is easier than you'd think!
November 25, 2013
Wow !! That's amazing. You're a trooper lol I don't think I would ever be able to do any of that. Your advice is great, thanks so much! And I agree about doing them now... After I'm out of college I will be working and won't have much time to do it. I don't want to risk having to take time off work and I can't do them in the summers because I am working then, but now I have a two week break for Christmas, so it is the perfect time. Thanks so much again!!!!
November 26, 2013
also i was wondering what the price range is for Dr Kim?
November 26, 2013
He's quite expensive... My parents are friends of his so he cut us a tiny break, but it's like 7,500 I think for only his surgery at normal... And then there's hospital bills. So mine altogether is about 7,500 and the norm is probably 8,500 ish. I'm not positive how much it normally is I forget what he said but from what I remember that's it I think.
November 26, 2013
Congrats on your upcoming surgery!! I don't know about working that quickly in a fast paced environment. But -- you are young and energetic and probably will heal quickly!! I'm a stay at home mom and can't imagine working right now even still, of course keeping up with our farm and two kids is a lot of work in itself. lol. Are you getting saline or silicone? Incision site?
November 26, 2013
Yeah I'm kind of nervous about it, but I can't take off any longer because I just got the job and need it and am already going to be gone for two weeks! Either way I hope I will be alright. My PS doesn't seem worried about it, but we'll see. I'm getting silicone 400-425cc mod+ and incision will be under my boob.
