O.R. is booked and paid for. I am still struggling with size. After kids I was saggy and had a lift in August. They are perky and lifeless lol. I am 5'4 135 lbs. My weight fluctuates 130-140 today my ribs 29 inches, bust 34, waist 27.5, hips 40. I chose 375 cc Siltex / Round / Cohesive Gel / High Profile Mentor Implants. I don't wait to look fake. But I want to feel sexy again. Please talk to me

I did try on sizers which I didn't find helpful because in essense its a ball over a boob lol. I tried rice in my bra which was an epic fail...my young daughter laughed at me when she noticed it. I just wonder if with a small B after my mastopexy in Aug will 375 cc Siltex / Round / Cohesive Gel / High Profile Mentor Implants look too big? Im guessing it will give me a D cup. I wonder if 325cc would look better

hi, I'm going in March 31st. imo, since you are a bit bigger than me bottom wise I think you should do 375cc at least, but why not medium profile? High profile just means you will have torpedo boob from what I understand. Also, width matters! The biggger the implant, the wider it is so be sure that your PS measures your current bood width and steers you in the direction you want to go: same width you currently have or to go wider? Wider will look completely unnatural.

he said my rib cage being 29 inches wouldnt work with a 375 cc breast implant unless it was high profile.

We have similar stats, and I went 350. Check out my pics. I wish I could have gone more in the 425 range, now that all is healing, but my bwd was only 11

I am already a B34... I think you started at an A cup? So at 375 cc I think I'd be a D cup. I worry that big big boobs might make me look "fat". My head is spinning with boob thoughts lo. I only have until next wed to decide. My PS wont tell me what he thinks I should go with. I understand that...but it definately puts the pressure on me. And I worry that high profile will give me torpedo boobs :(
I bet once your done healing you love what you have. It looks really natural. Must be a strange feeling. I was always a D34/C36 depending on the bra. Its strange sitting here at a B cup. I used to complain about my big boobs.... be careful what you wish for (for me). After my babies they were just sacs of skin. Depressing

Glad to see you were able to set up a review/blog!!!
I can totally relate to going back and forth on size....I did the same thing literally up to the day of my surgery! Haha I essentially ended up looking at my surgeon and said "you have a range of 300-350cc...do what will work best with my body and look the most natural" and he went with the largest size, haha. I have thicker hips and a pretty big butt for my frame, haha so I think that's why I am able to pull off the larger size with a petite frame and it look balanced.
Maybe try giving your PS a range of options and since he knows what he's doing, he'll likely pick the best option for you :)
My surgeon kind of explained implant sizes like this: it's hard to judge what your bra size will be before your surgery, so he had me focus more on just the implant size itself in the amount of cc instead of bra size and that is what helped me fall into my range (I was so flat before I was happy with 275cc sizers...haha!).

I feel so dramatic. I usually make rash decisions. This is the first time I am thinking and re thinking. I am heading back today for a second sizing....just to be sure I am not going too big.
