WORTH IT$3,845
This is my first review/post. I was referred to this site by a friend when I told her I was finally getting my BA. I had consults w/ 3 PS & all had good reviews from past clients. I went w/ Dr. Sarosy b/c he didn't have the extra "La Jolla location" cost.
His nurse (Sarah) was awesome and answered all my questions. I even emailed her on a weekend and she responded w/in 24hrs. (I hadn't even given my deposit yet) I did 2 consultations w/ them b4 my final decision and the office staff was always nice and kind.
The location is in an easy to get to area close to 2 different freeways, a mall, and a major hospital. ;) At pre-op I was given 2 Rx for after surgery. A pain med and antibiotic. Dr. S, again, went over my medical history & any meds I may already be taking. I was asked many times if I had any more questions and they assured me it was great and even recommended to make sure I ask any and all questions b4 AND after surgery.
We decided to go w/ saline, under muscle, areola incision to correct my a-symmetry. (Left is C, right is b)
If you're looking to do this type of procedure I suggest doing consults with at least 3 Dr's. AND ask if any of them do or offer "Summer", "Mother's Day", "Spring" or any other type of special(s).
Just started my (.) So nervous! Suggestions?

Last day w/ the original sista-tas!
So this is it... I'm nervous & excited. I'm nauseous to boot. I have done about all I can to set my husband & kids up for a week w/ mom laid up. I pick up my Rx's, anti-bacterial soap & a button up shirt yesterday. I've pre made my super sauce my family loves. I have nothing to do but wait... Except there's still soccer practice, scouts & back to school night tonight. Ahhhhhh! I started my period & trying NOT to break down in tears. I'm usually not such a pansy.
I little about me personally... 38 yr old, nursed 2 angels (11,5) 5ft6in, @ 135lbs, 34 C on left side, B on the right. My husband is very insecure about me doing this & afraid we'll be divorced w/in a year. (According to statistics)
I can't wait to just get this all over w/ so I can get on to healing & being me.
I've collected my old bras and shirts I know I won't be able to wear again post surgery. ;) My daughter is dying to raid those shirts. ;)
SO glad I found this website. It's been a great help & resource.

Just got off the phone w/ my sister. She's an RN in ER and avidly against these types of surgeries. I told her yesterday what I was doing via text while she was working, so she called me today to see if she could talk me out of doing my BA. If she'd had more time she would've sent me pics of all the horror scenarios. She did rattle off a bunch of implant mishaps she's seen in her RN career. I know it's b/c she loves me.

Best of luck and all will be fine, I am certain you have confidence in your plastic surgeon. I completely trusted mine with all the decisions, he is the best in my area. I have been totally pleased with the results and just need to wait the healing time. I can't expressed have pleased I and my boyfriend are with the results. It did hurt, take your pain meds and time heals and it passes.
Best wishes sent your way.

We are sharing a surgery date! Good luck and happy healing :)

Yes we should! My appointment time is 10 but she said surgery time would be 10:45 or so. Good luck with your surgery and a smooth ride home :)

Day of treatment
BA complete!
Just got home. So far I feel good. I just feel the pressure across my chest. My husband is making me breakfast so I can take my meds & go to sleep. The nurses said I was an awesome patient and just "slept" through the whole thing. I plan on taking my pain meds every 4 hrs. I'm all bandaged up super snug so this is the best pic I have to share.

Oh, I forgot to ask what your cc is. Mine is 430 and 455 silicone gel under the muscle and the ultra high profile because my ribs are narrow. Hope you are feeling better than me **hugs** :)
September 20, 2013
Good afternoon. :) I did smooth round high profile saline. Left is a 420 filled to 445/Right is 460 filled to 475. I can't wait to take my bandages off & chk things out. Holy smokes am I soar! I'm having to take 2 Vicodin at a time. :( I sure hope they last long enough to get me thru the pain & discomfort. I feel like my ice packs are not staying cold for very long. My husband tried using ice cubes in a bag, but it was too lumpy & hurt. :(
I spent most of yesterday trying not to yak. :( I even resorted to trying my kids pedia-pops... Came right back up. My antibiotics & pain meds wouldn't stay down either. It was ROUGH till my PS's nurse called in a Rx for anti-nausea medication. Thank G-D!
How are you doing so far?
