Breast Augmentation: Stories

I am a mother of two, 23 months and 9months. I am 26 years old and all my life I was always slim with some curves. My chest area was my biggest insecurity even though everyone told me I looked great. After giving birth to my two children, I have not been feelin the same about my body. Being the outgoing woman I was, my confidence has gone down completely. My fiancée lifted me up and proposed to me and always kept me up and said I always look amazing. After breast feeding two babies, my chest has lost volume and one looks very much bigger than the other. Then I began to search for breast augmentation surgeons in the area, NYC. Then I began obsessing the thought of having implants and believed that this will help brig the confidence I once had.

After all of my research, I searched for a doctor that specializes in Hispanic/Latina women. Not every woman are the same in shape as in culture. A few weeks later I came across Dr. Yager and quickly made a consultation. I went to see him with my family. My fiancée was comfortable with him and asked questions as well. Dr. Yager was very professional and understanding.

Once my fiancée and I got home, we had discussed the right time for the procedure since the holidays were coming and we are having a big wedding next year. We figured sometime in November. After some time went by, I finally called to book my appointment and was enthused, at the same time anxious.

I have finally made all the arrangements as far as childcare for a couple of weeks for my children for recovery. I live my kids and don't look forward being away from them that long. My fiancée will be taking time off from work to take care of me.

I have gone to another consultation with Dr. Yager because of my anxiety with the surgery and he once again made me feels sure and confident. I am so happy for choosing him and look forward to my procedure.

My pre op is on Nov 5th. This week I will be going to do my bloodwork to make sure I'm okay for the procedure...Only 19 more days and I'm soooo amped!!!!

My pre op is tomorrow and I am sooooo excited!!!! Wish
Me luck!!!! :)

Today I went to my pre op and it went great!! My PS seems very confident for my procedure and results. He says 350-400ccs smooth moderate profile, under muscle, willl work for me with a minor lift around the nipples. I told him of my concern of looking too small and he asked "if you woke up would you be mad if your breasts were too small or too big" I said "too small.." he made a note of that.

My pre op was a bit quick compared to what I heard from other women but I was nervous and a bit anxious, and he did answer all my questions. Also once again I feel comfortable with him because he specializes in cosmetic surgery for predominantly Latin women, and he very much has he idea of the results I want.

My surgery will be scheduled for the morning. Not sure what time and won't know until 2 days prior.

But I'm soooo happy!!

Yesterday I had my surgery and was too calm. I was ready! It was all quick to be honest. My surgery time was at 9:15 and was out in my gown then. The nurse asked some questions, then so did the anesthesiologist. Then shortly after that, about 10am I was in the surgery room and was put to sleep. Woke up in he recovery room and was out a little before 12pm. I can't lie, I was in sooooo much paiiiin. But after taking my medication felt a bit better.

When I got home, I was very drowsy and felt alot of pressure, I was just in shock. But glad I got it over with as well.

I will write more about my procedure and recovery as I'm still recovering.

ONE WEEK POST OP!!!
