about my fat transfer conult

I will actually start a whole new review for this surgery, but since I mentioned it here, I will go ahead and follow up. I drove to Charlotte, NC yesterday to meet with Dr.Bednar regarding a fat transfer to breast to help fill them out a little bit. Yes, I drove almost 8 hours round trip and waited 1.5 hours to be seen to be told one sentence "you do not have enough fat"!! I did have a phone consult prior to this (I sent in pictures for them), and he did seem hesitant on the phone, but said he would do the best he could. I am glad I made the trip to be seen in person for my case! Seeing me in the flesh let him know for sure that I would not have a "worth-it" outcome at my current weight. He mentioned he had performed the surgery on a very thin patient just that day and had a very difficult time getting the fat needed for the cup-cup and half increase. This patient was 12 lbs below her "ideal body weight". I am 20 lbs below the ideal body weight for my height. I thought Dr.Bednar was very kind and professional as was the rest of the staff, and I still plan on doing the procedure if I can gain the 15 lbs he recommended. What do you girls think? Would you if you were me?
I have ALWAYS been the weight I am now! Since high school (I am 32 now). So being 115+ will be so weird, I'll probably feel chubby! lol! I have never weighed more than 125lbs (and that was only when I was 9 mos pregnant, but I lost it immediately after giving birth each time). I will do a new review and show my weight gain progress and hopefully be able to reveal my (good :) ) results after being able to do the fat transfer. My goal is to gain/maintain the weight over the next several months and do the procedure in December when I have time off. Comments are welcome! My family does not understand me wanting another surgery. Grrrrr. Of course my sis has huge, nice breasts, so yeah.... :)

1 year update pics

here are my pictures. as you can see I was left with some loose skin and asymmetry. It also looks like my breast crease is in different locations on either side. I'm not sure how that happened-maybe scar tissue/how they healed. I don't want these pictures to scare anyone from removing their implants! lol! I look this way because I am underweight and have no breast tissue. And believe it or not, I prefer this over my implants :(

12 month Update

Hi. Well, its' been a year since my decision to explant. I do want to apologize for not keeping up with questions - I will try to provide some answers now :) I am still happy about my decision to remove my implants, even though what I've ended up with is not that great...I simply have no breast tissue. BUT being implant fee=awesome. I really hated them at the end! My breasts never "fluffed". The skin continued to retract some, and my scars have faded quite nicely but that's about it. I will post some update pics when I get to my desktop. I've have been reading up on realself again because I may be interested in doing a fat transfer to my breasts to fluff them up a bit - I will have a consultation with the infamous Dr.Bednar in Charloette, NC to see if I even have enough fat to bother. If I don't, that's fine. No more implants for me, that's for sure.

Provider Review

Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
1357 Hembree Rd, Roswell, Georgia

My first consultation went like this...he wanted to remove them under general anesthesia in a hospital and remove part of the capsule. Cost $4700 Second consultation with different PS - remove in office under local anesthesia if I removed through areola or under breast. Under general in a hospital if I wanted to remove back through armpit (more expensive and more difficult recovery). Leave the capsule alone (it's soft and thin and I have no illness). Cost $2200. To Deflate implant prior to actual surgery $150. I chose the second PS. Do your research and know what you want. You won't find any two PS's that give you the same answer. I wanted to deflate first to see how my boobs look before I decide on an incision site for removal (I'm afraid my small boobs wouldn't be enough to conceal a infra-mammary crease scar).
