Hi Girls, After many years of thinking about...
WORTH IT$9,147
Hi Girls,
After many years of thinking about this, I finally had my BA today, @8 AM. I still cant believe I did it! For the past few days, and esp last night, I seriously considered backing out, I was terrified of anesthesia and all the sillyness I found online about implants. But at 8 AM today, there i was laying on the OR table, terrified...
A bit about me- im 27 years old, no kids...yet, 118 lbs, 5'4. Pre op size, A-AA, never bothered to measure, but i wa sbasically flat in clothes/from the side. Always wore padded bras. I decided to go with 335 ccs silicone gel under the muscle. Due to my small frame, I didnt want to go too big, and look unnatural since I had very little breast tissue. I am hoping to end up a medium C.
When i got to the OR, i was given an IV to make me feel a bit dizzy, and a mask. Next thing I knew, I was in recovery room.,,,alive!!! I was sore as heck, and still in much more pain than i thought-mostly when i try to move, or get up. Luckily my amazing hubby is helping me with every step. I will update with post op pics in 2 days, once i get to shower :)

Hi ladies
It's been 2 days since my BA and I finally got to shower. I was so excited to get the tensor band and my surgical bra off! I must tell you, it feels better with it on! It got quite painful when they were 'free' .i didn't realize how huge they looked from the side till I was naked, without my band and bra on! Sure hope it's just the swelling and will decrease as they drop. They don't look that big In pictures, but when I saw them in person I was so surprised ! I'm sill very stiff and had to move around, it was however much easier to get out of bed . I'm trying to stay away from the pain meds, although they really help , they make me super nauseous all day .just can't wait for them to drop and "in-stiffen"!! I will keep posting progress pics .

How was your experience with Dr. E ? I really would like to go with him but my consult wait time is crazy ! Did you have to wait long for a consult ? Where you on a cancellation list ? And what was the time between your consult and surgery date ? Sorry for all the questions I just have seen and heard wonderful things about him and kinda have my heart set on seeing him, but I'm inpatient and sometimes thing to contact another p.s that I know I can see sooner . Thanks !

Hi Sammic!
I did wait awhile for a consultation , I can't remember exactly how long but it was a few months ! After the consultation I had my surgery booked within 3 weeks of the consult . I think it only takes a long time for initial consult but surgery it lself is much faster . Honestly it is worth the wait. I believe my results will be amazing once they have settled! Hopefully sooner than later :)

I think there is a reason as to why such a crazy wait :) with other physicians you can have it within the same week lol .Dr E is great, I think if you wait for him you will be very happy

I agree! Dr. Edelstein is SO worth the wait! I booked my surgery 4 months after my consult but only because I had to wait to take time off work and organize child care for my two kids. Otherwise I could have booked my surgery with 4 weeks of my consult.
