WORTH IT$4,500

I am 5'4 127 pnds 34 B cup before the operation my left breast was almost a cup size bigger then my right . I also had slight sagging in both breast . My PS said I could have a slight lift with augmentation to lift a little more but opted not to till after augmentation to see the results then later go and do a small lift after they settle if need be. Because eventually they will sag a little anyway in time of course. My PS said the plus profile adds more projection to give me little lift and more fuller look but of course augmentation does not lift your breast it makes them bigger I chose 350cc implants fill L 370cc R 425cc "WOW" I am so Happy now 34 D so far still lots of settling

My advice is to do lots of research and study for yourself and make sure your doctor's credentials are American Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and then some and experiance and also remember the complications that can possibly happen no matter what and everybody's body is different and anything can happen it not being the doctor's fault remember also it is an up keep on your body that you will have to have surgery again maybe several times in future to maintain and get check ups regular to make sure your breast are healthy and beautiful.

Also make sure you follow doctors orders to the T for the best results and try new clothes on after your recovery time bra's etc because size definitly changes everyday I'v noticed.

I am patiently waiting myself can't wait till my recovery time is over so I can take this surgical bra off and get some cute sexy bra's to wear only 2 wks post op.Good luck to you all ! I will post my photo's asap

Thanks so much for sharing your story here on RealSelf. Your advice is great, as well. I'm sure it'll help lots of other women considering breast aug! Keep us posted on how you're feeling as you heal. And happy bra shopping!

Good job, can't wait to see your results! I have sim stats and a full cup bigger as well, I did get the lift on the one breast at the same time though. Are you going to still get the lift? did the asymmetry get fully corrected from the aug?

So you still have your implants then after all this time, very nice to know, I often wonder if women keep their implants for very long, or if they get tired of them, or have any set backs with them, but from what you just wrote tells me you are very happy with what you have, and they are still doing what you wanted with your physical attributes, wish more women could afford what you have done, thanks for the response.

After looking at your photos, and others as well to compare.....I had silicone,round smooth, high profile, 475 left 500 right under muscle and I must say the saline has a larger projection. I thought I would be larger, although I am love my look but just surprised at how silicone looks smaller at my size compared to the 350 or higher in saline. I'm glad I got the silicone because of the softness, my sister has saline so I had someone to compare to. I think because the silicone is softer and conforms more to your body and settles in better than the saline is why it looks smaller and more natural I guess.
