WORTH IT$4,500
I am only 25 and my boobs are already a bit floppy and have lost their perkiness. I think this is probably because I used to be about 50 pounds or so heavier a few years ago. I wasn't that heavy for very long, but I think it was enough to take a toll on my body. I think when my breasts were at their largest, they were maybe a 34G, which was pretty big. Now I'm about a 32DD and in serious need of a pushup bra. I can fake it pretty well in a bra, but without one, it just is depressing. I will post some pictures of the difference.
I had a BBL in June and am really happy with the results of that and the lipo. I am ready to take the next step with my upstairs!

Is your doc doing your lift and aug. all at once?
If so, I would research people who get them done at the same time to know what all the risks are with doing that.
I wish I could help you with choosing size. But since you are getting a lift it will be hard to tell how much tissue you will have left and to know how much implant you will need.
I think showing your doc your wish pics and letting him help you choose will get you there much closer than we can.
Good luck to you!

Thanks for starting your story on RealSelf! Have you tried the rice test? Here's how to do that.

Please keep us updated!!! I want a lift with aug also, I have naturally large breast 34/36DD (also getting a BBL this march lol)... I went to a plastic surgeon and was told he wouldnt to the aug and lift at the same time so looking for another doctor that will do it all at the same time.Best wishes
October 12, 2012
/thanks! I will definitely keep updated. I'm having a ton of trouble finding answers to my questions, so I'm hoping to help others that are behind me. Especially about the lift/implants in a naturally already large breast!
October 12, 2012
Petite, did you check out the " breast lift" section? I think there were a couple ladies like you...
October 12, 2012
Yes, I am a research freak and have been all over this site and others! haha I did see a few that were very similar to me but most didn't get implants and a few of them did and I really did not like their results. Which makes me nervous! They didn't have that round 'looking out' look to them, which is what I want.
October 12, 2012
Well I would make sure your doc knows thats what you want so he can let you know if it is possible when doing both the lift and aug at the same time. They have to make sure there isnt too much pressure in there when a lift is done at the same time. Hopefully you'll get what you want! Is he doing high profile?
October 12, 2012
I would think he would be doing high profile, but I need to have a final talk with him before surgery. He's a great listener and will guide me well.

Petite BlondeOctober 11, 2012
Excited about my fast approaching procedure. Pretty cool that I am going to have perkier and fuller breasts! However, still don't know about CCs at all. Just know that I don't necessarily want them to be dropping to a 'natural' position. I want them to be high and perky with nipples slightly to the side, looking out. I added a picture of me holding up my boobs to look more lifted, which is the look I am going for.
I am nervous bout the scarring. I hope I won't feel self conscious if I am ever intimate with a man. I guess I feel weird saying "my breasts used to be kinda sagging." Not the most attractive thing to tell someone! I guess I will just put that kind of thing off for quite some time while my chest heals. This is all about self improvement. I have been going through the hardest time lately and trying to 'improve' myself is what I have. I was so uplifted from my BBL that I hope this procedure has the same affect.

I guess the real question is, What size do you want to be in the end?
Did your doc say what size you'll be after the lift?
I am guessing a C????
October 12, 2012
He basically asked me what I wanted to look like and I showed him some pictures that were of pretty large breasts and he warned me of going so big. I realized I was being a bit ridiculous, so I have scaled back. My 'wish pictures' above are about what I'd like. A full DD/DDD since I've had large breasts my whole life. I did the rice sizers for 300 ccs and it looked great. Thing is, I don't really trust the rice sizers test since the implant will be in my body and under the muscle and under tissue. I want my breast to be full and round, not dropping at all. I want them out and round! Which is an area between fake -fake looking and natural. I don't want [RS bleep] star, but I do want large since that's what I'm used to. I was thinking to suggest 350? I just want to make sure they are filled out and firm. Nice and HIGH.
October 12, 2012
Sure a little bigger as they do lose a little size once in.
Glad you've tried the sizers and have an idea! If he is lifting too, wont it make your boobs smaller though?
October 12, 2012
Yes, I think the lift will make it a bit smaller because he says I have some 'extra' tissue on the bottom. He also mentioned that I have good room for stretch. This is because of the weight loss and my boobs shrinking, so I am hoping the implant will fill that up. I really want to be bigger, not smaller. Or, actually maybe I'm just going for different and FULLER more than bigger. DD/DDD and perky and I'm happy! He said he cant fill to the point of major stress because of the lift, but said even 375ccs could be possible, but he would have to try it out in the actual procedure. I do love the way they look in the picture where I am holding them up. THat is just the perfect height! I just would like them closer together and fuller and bigger.
October 12, 2012
Well good luck! I think if you stick to the 350-375cc you'll be golden! =)
Keep us posted on it!
October 12, 2012
Hiya blonde~good luck on the upcoming BA! When have you scheduled the procedure? I had mine done in Jan. 2012 and could not be happier. For the first time in my life I feel pretty when braless and have full, pretty ta ta'!!!! WOOO HOOO....Lol. Look forward to seeing your post op piks soon:-)
October 12, 2012
Hi, I'm going in on November 1. I am really excited and cant wait to have them full and perky ! I want to feel good braless also. I used to feel so confident about my chest, but that's changed slowly over the past couple years. I just realized they are kinda deflated. In a bra, everything is great and I fill out my tops and feel confident, but not in a bra, that's not the case. I have looked at so many 'after' pictures on here it really woke me up to the fact that I'm not-so-perky, to put it nicely. I'm going through a hard time right now and just want to feel good about myself. I really hope this helps.
