Hello there!
I'm 27 years old, Asian, single (no kids) and completely flat chested. I am getting my BA procedure done by Dr. Martin O'Toole from Pasadena Cosmetic Surgery. This will be life changing for me. I've never shared my emotions about being flat with anyone but here I am now. I feel like I have to get this off my chest!
First off, BA was never the first option and in fact, I was against it. I tried so many pills, creams and even went on birth control pills. I want my breasts to grow naturally so baaaad. I tried gaining weight but my boobs never got any bigger, not even a centimeter! Where did the fat go? On my thighs.
On my 26th birthday last year, I told myself to give these methods one last try (that's when I tried birth control). And to my dismay, it didn't work. On my 27th birthday in May this year, I finally gave in and started researching seriously about BA. I finally got the courage to go to consultations. I was sold.
Why do I want this? For those who were flat-chested and got their A's B's or C's, you're my soul-sistahs. It's not about sexual satisfaction... I'm not 100% confident in bed, but I never felt uncomfortable or cared what my partner thought of my body. No, for me, I feel incomplete, as a woman. Whenever I read I-hate-my-small-boobs rant, in my mind I'd always say, "At least you have boobs, woman! I don't." and that has always depressed me because deep inside I'm a diva, a bombshell, a confident woman. But being flat chested always held me back and I can't explain why. Now that I'm nearing my 30th year on this world, I want to enjoy my final twenties. I want to live! I need change. I'm a simple girl. I don't need bling in my life or fancy clothes or expensive cars. What I want and need most is respect and confidence.
If you're still with me, thank you. And I hope to share my journey with you!
Until then!

PRE-OP
Whew busy week at work so I'm sorry for the delay but here we go!
I went for my pre-op on Wednesday. They drew blood from me, which I didn't expect! I'm scared of needles. The doctor explained tons of stuff from preparing for the surgery to post surgery. He measured me at 11.5 inches. To achieve my goal of a small C, I'm going for a mid-profile, 339 ccs silicone implant that is 12.4 in diameter, under the muscle. I wore the bra and inserted the implants and realized that yeah, I'm going to have to carry these around for a loooooooong time. So I really want to make sure they're not going to be heavy on my body by not going too big. I tried a smaller and larger implant and finally decided on 339 ccs. I know it's a weird measurement but we decided based on my rib (?) measurement. He said this will fall perfectly on the side. I brought some clothes with me just to see how they would change my look, and they're huge! It was amazing!
I left the clinic more excited than ever. This is really happening and I'm preparing to the fullest!
