I have always been very flat chested, I got to 13...

WORTH IT$10,000

I have always been very flat chested, I got to 13 years old and all my friends were getting bras and I still had nothing! Getting a breast augmentation would always cross my mind, however due to many reasons, money, job, getting married and three babies time slipped away.

I am now 38 years old 173cm tall and weigh 58kgs and after having my beautiful babies I am now even flatter (if that's possible lol) than before. My husband never really wanted me to get my boobs done as he said he loved me just the way I was etc etc, however over the years he has realised how much I hate looking the way I do. I explained to him how not a moment goes by in my mind when I undress about how depressed I am looking at my boobs, I feel like a child or a boy! I would be embarrassed wearing my bikini at the pool and even with padding etc still looked flat and boney in my chest.

So I finally did it and went to two surgeons and decided to go with my second
Surgeon. When he was measuring me he said yes you have no breast tissue at all!! I said you're telling me lol!!! So my ps recommended 280cc moderate profile round silicone under the muscle. I want to look fairly natural and my goal size is a large b to a c cup. I hope that I will get there with 280cc. I actually rang my surgeon last week and asked to go a little bigger maybe to 300cc??? It's so worrying as I don't want to go through all of this and regret not going bigger but I also don't want to look that obvious that I got my boobs done. Like everyone else I am so nervous but so excited about finally having boobs and actually shopping for bras that aren't padded!!!

My 6 yr old keeps seeing me looking at reviews and told my husband that mummy keeps looking at bras and she wants some for Mother's Day ha ha. Anyway ill keep you updated with my progress its so wonderful to read everyone's journeys and know that I'm not alone and that it will be ok.

Good luck with your journey!! i recently had my surgery and I was able to get 421 cc. My PS recommended that I find a pic of what I would like to look like instead of worrying about CC. You need to find someone with similar stats as you, age, weight and height. You will also loose some CC if you plan to go under the muscle. you will be happier if you go bigger than if you are two small. lol

Thankyou, and I hope your recovery is going well. I just rang my PS and they are going to find another size for me closer to the 300 - 320cc range so I am much happier with that size, as you said I would rather go bigger than too small. I am a little concerned re recovery and what to expect, but I think I had 3 kids with no pain relief, so it couldn't possibly be as bad as that LOL

When is ur BA I to am flat and have always wanted this and I'm finally going for it. I feel the same as you . My ba is march 19 th and I can't wait . But I'm getting 375 ccs to achieve 350ccs because when u go behind the muscle u loose around 25 ccs . My dr told me because my frame isn't wide I have to go with high profile . Hmmmmm all the drs r different . How tall r u ? I'm 5 foot 110 lbs

Hi Im 127 pounds and 5 " 7 so fairly tall. Not long for you now, March 19th will be here before you know it. I have a 29 inch rib cage, so I think I will definitely go with the larger size due to going under the muscle and the fact that I have no breast tissue to start with.

Ya your taller than me. When is your ba set for ? Did you try on sizers yet?

Congratulations on your decision to proceed with breast augmentation surgery. My main suggestion to you would be to communicate your goals very carefully with your plastic surgeon. You may find that words such as “natural” and/or discussing specific cup sizes (will vary from one bra manufacturer to another) may be misinterpreted or confusing when it comes to this communication process. Consider using “goal pictures” to help with this communication process. Best wishes; hopefully you will be very pleased with the procedure performed.

Thankyou Dr Pousti for taking the time to read my review and for your comments. I have a few goal pictures so I will show them to my PS so he is aware of what my version of a large B is, thanks again.

Hey there! We are surgery sisters! I am having a mommy makeover on the 11th too. BA, mini TT and some limo in my upper abs. How tall is 173cm in inches? I am starting with a little breast tissue, but not much. Going with sizes similar to you. Started at 300, but may be leaning closer to 350 now. I look forward to following your journey!

Hi Great, we can keep each other updated. I am 5 foot 7 inches tall and 127 pounds. I will find out tomorrow my new size as my PS is getting back to me. I think I have a small BWD around 11 - 12cm?? so if I go bigger I think I may have to go HP not MP, and also the surgery said I may not have enough room for my skin to stretch as even when I was breastfeeding my breasts only got up to a B cup. Good luck with your journey its wonderful to meet people in the same situation and understand that we aren't alone. Keep me updated :)

Did you decide on a size? I went to my pre-op today and tried on 350, love the way it looks. Now the decision is to go to 375 to compensate for under the muscle placement or keep it smaller. My BWD was around 13. PS said to go smaller if I can't decide because I am so active. UGGHH! I just don't know what to do!

Reading your story brought tears to my eyes since a lot of what you mentioned was similar to my ultimate decision of getting BA. Best wishes to you and your surgery and we're all here for you for whatever questions or concerns you may have :)

I spoke to the plastic surgeon today and we have both agreed on 310cc! I feel much happier with that size, the 280cc was worrying me as I didn't want to regret not going bigger. So hopefully the 310cc will get me to my goal size of a large b small c. Now just the waiting.......4 weeks to go, can't wait!!!!!

Hey justsome I read yr story and I'm so excited 4 u! I'm 2 weeks post op and I like u were very very flat chested and I have 2 say this was the best decision I have ever made. I love my new girls. I was undecided about size also I wanted a natural look and my ps said I couldn't go real big because I have no breat tissue 2 work with so I just trusted his judgement and I went with 385 mod profile gummy inplants and I have 2 say I love the look so far I'm just waiting on them 2 settle and drop n 2 place. Just remember when u go under the muscle u will loose alittle cc. Best of luck and keep us updated.

There's a few gals here having BA in 4 weeks like you; I'm very excited for all of you! I'm glad to hear you are happy with the size you chose :) Im on day 10 and the silicones are feeling softer by the day, I hope these next few weeks fly by for you! Have you started prepping for your BA (bras, meds, comfy pillows etc)?

Justsome

March 17, 2013

So glad you are recovering so well, you look great!!!! I am not prepared really on what to buy, I have some bras etc and plan on buying a pillow, but I hear a lot of you girls talking about arnica??? I am in Australia and haven't heard of arnica so I will go to the chemist and see what I can find, getting excited now, but worrying about recovery!!!!

Well only 1 week to go!!!! Can't believe I am actually doing this!!!! Sometimes I try not to think about it as my mind tries to talk me out of it and I feel guilty etc for spending so much money on myself. I am very excited though and can't wait to throw out my terrible padded bras!!!
The hospital rang today to confirm my surgery and I won't know what time I'm due to be operated on until the day before. Anyway I Am pretty ready I think???? I have my pillow, arnica cream and body butter and I'm full of nerves but hope this week goes quick.
