25 No Kids Fitness Fanatic, 34B/C Hoping for About DD - San Diego, CA

So far with months of "google study" of implants and options (no actual consultation yet), I am leaning towards silicone, round, under the muscle, and maybe moderate plus implants.

I'm 25 years old, 5'7", 135-140lbs, currently a 34 B/C and hoping to get around a DD. I used to have small D's briefly when I hit the peak of my weight gain at the end of college, I was a little over 160. My boobs almost looked fake back then. But obviously with weight loss, my breasts shrank quite a bit. My ribs seem bigger, but not hugely wide - this is my super "expertise" self-assessment, so who knows how off I am ;-).

Things that I really do NOT want are abrupt breasts at the top that look like you stuck a round implant on top of your boob and painted it skin color. I want the upper transition to be smooth, but I still want the upper breast to be full. This is why I am leaning towards under the muscle even though I'm in the fitness industry and a bikini/figure competitor. Fitness women into bodybuilding often encourage over the muscle to avoid complications that I am not qualified to even try to explain without reciting something from Google. This has led me to spend many hours of confusion debating, and eventually led me to talk with all the fitness women I know that got their implants under the muscle to see if it was really that bad, and so far their consensus was "no, under the muscle is amazing". BUT those girls were bikini girls so they weren't hugely stacked. I don't intend on building my pecs to be ginormous. In fact an elbow ligament injury somewhat prevents me from getting really heavy on my chest workouts anyway.

Secondly, I do not want my cleavage to be an inch apart. I'd rather my boobs come together like my butt cheeks do.... You know what I'm saying :-P no spacer in the middle. Luckily, my breasts naturally seem to be close together, or rather.... They DONT seem to be far apart.

With those two ideas of what I don't want... part of me feels like I should get moderate plus profile instead of HP? Or maybe because my breasts aren't far apart they would do alright with high profile... But then my ribs... Are they wide? Hahah... I'm guessing I will have to have a doctor help me determine what is best. Also I am not sure how the breast tissue I have currently would look over mod+ vs high. IT'S ALL SUCH A MYSTERY!!!

As of today, I am looking at surgeons in the Southern California area, and figuring out who I am going to have consultations with. I am moving down there in two weeks (end of February) and plan on getting this process started IMMEDAITELY. I anticipate having at least 3 consultations, and further hoping to get the procedure sometime this summer... Or before summer would totally be fine with me too ;-).

Efitbee seems like you have done good research and have a solid plan for what you want. A more moderate implant will help you with your goals of being more natural in shape as well as providing you with better cleavage. However, you need to understand that your anatomy will dictate your end results more than anything. Best of luck in your search.

s you. highly into my heavy weight lifting, 34b same weight height and decisions etc! Im now 6 days postop with 400cc unders HP and couldnt be happier :) If your looking for a more natural look, unders will be your best option, the stuck on round appearance is one of large implants placed over the muscles. As for the weights, no doubt you can return back to it, just takes healing time of around 6-8 weeks. high profile implants dont instantly create a fake look, they are used for those like myself and you, want some upper pole fullness with a decent dize implant - yet have a small ribcage width :) HP implants stick out abit more than moderates but are slightly less wide. Also assum8ng you have very low hody fat like myself - unders and silicone will leave you with lovely results as comared to saline and overs , which would create a higher risk of rippling and that round look thats totally avoided with unders. Also. the space between your breasts will remain the same. However implants in a bra with create cleavage/a closer together look if desired. Hope this helps :D feel free to look at my profile to keep updated with results if it helps.

Just a comment on the space that some women have between their Breast which I'm one of. Surgery can't change your anatomy, the way your built. If I had my choice Id be somewhere in the middle as butt boobs would not be my choice as breasts are not supposed to naturally touch each other. I am 2 weeks post op and love my results even with the space they look fabulous and are still settling in. My Fiancé is in heaven, loves the twins. Stay realistic and good luck with your surgery

You ruined some perfectly good boobs. Dammit, but if it made you happy that's all that matters

GuccieEyeBags what are you talking about she hasn't had anything done yet. Read before you post. She's showing before and after photos from being heavier and now thinner. Read Dammit!

Do you mean I ruined perfectly good boobs by losing weight? LOL! Because that's the way I feel sometimes. They used to look so great they almost looked fake when I had all that extra weight. So I can easily see how you would easily confuse my "before I lost weight" picture as a picture of me with implants. I'm hoping they can look something like that again! Hah

Currently I'm a small 34 C but I used to be an AWESOME big round full D cup before I got into fitness. I am 5'7" and weighed about 163 lbs. Not I am 135-140, and my boobs aren't bad, but when I'm at competition weight around 125, my boobs are tiny!!
