I’m starting to get really nervous about my BA....
WORTH IT$7,800
I’m starting to get really nervous about my BA. I am scheduled to have my BA surgery on August 28th, 2014. I went on a hunt to find the perfect doctor and narrow it down to two doctors that I really liked; decided to go with the last doctor I saw who made me felt most comfortable. He explained everything really well and thoroughly. At my consultation I tried on a couple implants with a bra that was provided by the doctor to have an idea of how big I want to be. I am now a small B Cup and want be somewhere between a full C. I really like how the 350cc implant look and was thinking doing a moderate profile. My doctor didn’t want to give me his opinion on what size he thinks look best on me until our next meeting since he want me to make this decision on my own. Now my problem is that my left breast is slightly bigger than my right. Nothing too dramatic but I’m afraid once the implant is placed it will be more noticeable. I don’t know if I should get two different implant sizes or keep them both at 350cc. I did my research and this seems to be pretty common. Also I don’t not like the round fake boobs I want a natural look where people will not look at me like wow her breast are fake. I will upload photo shortly.

I went in the following day after my first post to sign some paper work. I told the nurse that I still have a few more questions for the doctor and wanted to see if I could schedule a day to meet. I was impressed that he came and talked to me right after he was done with surgery that day and answered all my questions and concerns. I was afraid that once the implant was placed, one of my breasts would look a lot bigger. My PS told me that he can put in two different sizes to be more symmetrical which will be 350cc and 325cc and told me the difference is just an ounce. He also said that he felt using the same size in both breasts will be fine as well since my breast is slightly off and not as noticeable. I been thinking about what I should do and still don’t know what the best choice is. I’m leading toward have 350cc on both sides since I lived with it all my life. Omg this is such a hard decision…

Can't decide between 335cc or 350cc
I'm 5'3 and weight 143lbs, most of my weight is on the lower half off my body. I been wanting to get a breast augmentation since I was in highschool over 10 years ago but financially at the time I couldn't afford them. I wear a 34b VS bra but my breast don't fill up on the top. I think im a small B cup. I can't decide if I should do 325cc or 350cc. I want to be a full C cup and don't want to be top heavy just portion to my body and look natural as possible.

Hi luvsookie! I had my breast aug done yesterday. My right breast wAs smaller than my left. My surgeon filled my implants two diff amounts to make them look even. 475ccs on the left, 510ccs on the right. I think it did a great job evening them out. I would say 350ccs would be the best choice. You lose a tiny bit of size when the implant is placed under the muscle. For example, I loved how the 450ccs sizer looked, so I had 475cc implants put in. Choosing a size was def one of the hardest parts of the entire process! I'm sure either size will come out great! Best of luck!

Hi Cierra1624, your new boobies looks great. Wow, right after surgery and they look amazing. Did you doctor tell you what the difference between 475cc and 510cc are? 35cc sounds like a lot. I'm so afraid that if I do two different sizes I might regret it. I have been going back and forth with 350cc and 325cc, having two different sizes or the 350cc in both. Then I don't know if I should 350cc since my frame is really small and I'm only 5'3. I don't want to look like I have these big fake looking boobs. It's so hard to make a decision.. My surgery is getting really close 6 days left.. Oh I appreciate you sharing your story, like you I been on this site for about 3 hours a day but I enjoy reading everyone posts.

Hi luvsookie! Just realized you're from sf! We're so close! I live in San Jose! What a coincidence!
No, he didn't tell me the difference in ccs. We had pretty much agreed beforehand that once he placed the implants in, he would use his judgment in filling the smaller breast to match the other. I would recommend putting the decision in your surgeons hands. Once they're in, he can take a step back and decide if they're even or if one needs adjusting. It's very common to have two different size implants and I'm sure your surgeon has plenty of experience in asymmetry.
Also, my stats are almost the same as yours exactly. I'm 5'3 145 lbs. i have a petite frame but a pretty broad chest. I believe my bwd was 14cm. I chose the moderate plus profile.
I hope you're starting to stress a little less and getting more exciting for the big day! One more week!!!

Hi Cierra1624, oh wow I didn't notice that we're so close to each other.. What a coincidence lol.. Although our body frame is really similar, I feel like since you have more breast tissue your BA looks really natural and going bigger is okay. I can't decide if I should do 350cc or 325cc...I plan on doing the moderate profile silicone implants. I just don't want to be too small or too big. I want to be a full or big C cup. I know it's kinda hard to determine cup size when the implants are in cc.

I would also suggest ask a lot of questions on the care you will have to endure after the procedure.My mom recently had hers done as well as a lift and she was told shed have to sleep with a bra on for more than a year. Make sure you know all the details like when it comes to having mammograms done alot of the women’s implants break in the process and you also need mri's done frequently to check that the implant has not ruptured.

Hello one less surgery to go, thank you for your comment. My PS did suggested that I get routine mammogram to ensure that the implants haven't ruptured. I didn't know that getting a BA required sleeping with a bra on for that long. Thanks I will make sure I ask my PS what I need to do after procedure.

Quick question I’m pretty new to this site are Dr's supposed to answer your questions voluntarily or are we supposed to direct our questions to specific dr's?
