My surgery is scheduled for Wednesday July 18th and I'm super excited :)
I went to two doctors before I decided to go with dr. Li in ontario, ca.
The first consult I went to was with dr. Hakeem. I knew a girl that got hers
done by him and hers turned out great. At the consult however I felt a little
bit rushed and uncomfortable. Just wasn't "the one" for me. I scheduled a
Consult with Dr. Li and the consult was great. He answered every question
In detail and made me feel comfortable and like he actually cared about me
and my end results.

My pre-op is scheduled for July 12th, going to go over final sizing and get all
My labs and stuff done. So far I've decided on 550cc's high profile silicone
Implants. I'm 25, 5'4", 140lbs, and a small B cup. I have one 6 year old daughter,
Didn't breast feed. I've always wanted bigger, fuller boobs with cleavage so
I'm super excited to finally get the procedure done. Can't wait to put the padded
Bras away! :)

My pre-op is this coming thursday. Going to decide my final size and get my labs drawn. Also paying for the rest of my balance in full. It'll be a little hard to hand over so much cash but I know I'll have some great boobs for it :)
I keep going back and forth between 500 and 550cc's. Scared of getting them too big. I know 50 cc's isn't that much of a difference though.. I'm feeling a little nervous but more excited. Well I will lost some more updates after my pre-op :)
And hopefully some before pics, wish I could through my iPhone, thats how I do all my Internet stuff mostly.

Good to hear your scars look great, he is most likely going in the crease, the nurse said I can talk to him the morning Of surgery about it more but 550cc silicone is too large to fit through the nipple :/ I guess I'm really fine with either way as long as they look good tho

My surgery is July 18th also. I have my preop this afternoon. I am undecided on size but I am getting saline implants incision under the breast. I am undecided between 390 implants filled to 420cc or 420 implants filled to 450cc. I look forward to seeing your after results. Good Luck!!

I have my pre-op today too! at 2pm. how funny! I keep going back and forth between the 500's and 550's. leaning more towards 550's. i figure 50 cc's isnt that much more. i know 2 girls that got 500 and wish they went bigger. Another girl i know got saline, 400cc, crease incision and she wants to go bigger too. I'm going to bring a regular tank top, sports bra, and a scrub top so i can see what ill look like at work too. I would go with the 420's filled to 450, but its really what feels right to you :) good luck to you too, keep in touch!

My pre-op is this afternoon too! at 2pm. how funny! I am super excited and its been getting hard for me to sleep I think about my surgery so often. I'm still going back and forth between 500-550 cc's but the more I think about it, im leaning towards 550's. i know 2 girls that got 500's and they wish they went bigger. Another girl I know got 400's and she wishes she went bigger as well. I've been to a few consults and all the dr.'s said you lose some ccs when they get put in. i would go with the 420's filled to 450, but its really up to you and what you want :) Good luck today at your pre-op and with your surgery wednesday! Nice to know someone is on the same schedule as me :)

So I had my pre-op on Thursday (6/12). Got my before pics taken, all my prescriptions, final sizing, and the surgery bra to wear home on the surgery date. Decided on the 550's still, they said I'm going to lose 50cc once they are in. I brought in a regular tshirt and a scrub top to try the sizes with. Even tried on 500's since I'll be losing that 50. Definetly going to be big. Just hope not too big. Still really nervous about it and wondering if I should go with 500's?

It's now Monday morning and my surgery is this Wednesday! Can't believe it's soo soon! Definetly have butterflies in my tummy. Tomorrow they're going to call me and let me know what time to be at the surgery center. Excited and nervous!

Good luck tomorrow! You are going under the muscle, so the 550 should be great. I'm 5'2" 135 lbs and went with 500 overs. At first they seemed too small, then incredibly large. Now they just fit me perfectly. I look like I have "a nice rack" as my DH says, but not like I've had a boob job. I am almost 7 weeks out and they look pretty darn good. Be patient, don't expect perfection right away. RxGirl has a great photo collage showing the progress of larger implants from day one to week 8. Check it out, it's really eye opening and reassuring.

Thanks for the advice, can't believe I will be in surgery in 11 hours! It seemed so far away and then all the sudden surgery time is here. Thanks for the advice, I think 550 should be good. They are going to seem big either way and take some time getting used to them anyways I guess. Hoping for the best, ready for bed :)
