$5,800
Went in for a consult and my breasts are very even. He took measurments and recommended silicone implants above the muscle since I have enough breast tissue. I'm just afraid that he may be conservative and may not give me the size I want. I have a pre-op appointment this wednesday October 30th and my surgery scheduled Nov. 1st. I'm SO excited. I have been wanting implants for about 2 years now. I have had appointments before with other surgeons but had always cancelled because I was so afraid. I've decided to finally get it done. Wish me luck. I'm thinking 400-525cc's?

Another before photo! With a favorite bra!
I started using Dial-gold antibacterial soap today. This is recommended atleast one week before surgery. Also, I stopped taking my multi-vitamin. Also recommended, take birth control a fre hours AFTER your surgery. Don't take it before. Obviously consult yout doctor prior to stopping any of your meds.
Beaumont hospital called today to update my health records. The lady was asking me questions about allergies, current meds, complications in the past, etc. After I answered "no" to everything.... She asked if I needed to tell her anything she may have missed... I replied that she gave me anxiety from all of the questions HAHA. She started laughing and said that I was a very healthy 27 year old! Ofcourse I blushed and felt great!
On a side note...I'm going to miss all of my beautiful bra's from VS :( although... It sure makes me happy knowing I can go shopping for new ones soon. Yay!

Thank you! I couldn't sleep last night so instead I startes searching for 'DD breasts' and did so for about 2 hours.
Today, I reminded my mother of my operation and she is giving me the hardest time about it! She made a comment along the line of, "I can't wait to see what other beauty project you'll have after this one." Yup!! I still get treated as if I'm 12. I guess that's part of the culture or parenting? Gotta love her for worrying though!

You're right...you gotta love your mom for worrying about you! Hang in there!! :)

Mine are over the muscle. I was worried they would look fake like that, but they look good now. As long as I don't raise my arms......then they look like balls on my chest!! I worry more now about capsular contracture. I've been reading up on it lately & how I can avoid it. I still do my exercises my PS ordered although he only told me to do them for 10 weeks. I'm still numb on my skin in spots. So to me that means I'm not healed! As long as I'm not healed I will do my exercises.

I would agree you are probably not healed if you can't feel nipple senstion! I've read it can take anywhere from 3-10 months to get it back... Definetely get together with your PS about this if you have not already done so... Why are you so afraid of rupture? Stay positive sister. If your PS was an excellent one just follow his instructions all the way through!!
I can't sleep, I'm so excited to see my results. I'll be posting pictures probably after noon today!
Wohoo!

I'm afraid of capsular contracture. Our bodies recognize intruders. Implants are intruders! So our body naturally forms a capsule around the implant. On some women it gets so thick that it squeezes the implant! It looks horrible!! Then u need it removed/repaired! I just don't want to cough up more $$ than I need to! But from what I read, it usually occurs in 1st 3 months! It's been over 6 months for me now! I'm slowly getting sensation back! Just glad there's no more pain!!

O, now I understand! Well, if it happens, it happens... I don't believe there is a way to prevent it, is there? If it has been 6 months for you, I would continue doing what you are doing.
The fact you don't have anymore pain, I'm sure, is a relief for you! I'm glad you are feeling better. Post more pictures up! :)

Here are some recovery items you may want to have on hand. Will you have anyone helping you the first few days post op? It can be challenging to even open a pill bottle. Let us know how your appointment goes on Wednesday and what your final profile and size will be on Friday!!

Thank you for the tips! The straws was a good one! I will for sure post an update on Friday.
