That is probably for the best. If there is no reason/event coming up that makes you want to rush into the surgery and you still don't feel confident in which direction you want to go, its better that you take the time to weigh your options.
I was about a DD on my larger side and after he did the reduction I was probably more like a large C-small D. Other than being evened out, I was definitely most interested in getting a rounder/fuller shape, so I felt the implants would give me a little more of that. However, when he did the lift, he was actually able to move some of the breast tissue around to reposition it and give a little more of a roundness to my breasts.
Good luck and just keep doing your research and consults until you find what you are looking for- you will be SO glad once it's all over and you are feeling like a new SEXY you! :)
Sorry it took me so long to respond! I just got back from getting married and was gone for 11 days...along with all the last minute planning I have been very absent from just about everything for about a month!
Well shoot! I'm sad to hear that! That doesn't sound even close to how my consult went at all. Maybe he was trying to figure out why your other Drs. recommended something else...who knows! I know my circumstances were more complicated than the typical person, so I know I had VERY different recommendations from all the Drs I had seen (which ALL charged me $75+ for consults). He was the only person to explain to me WHY he recommended what he recommended. It all made perfect sense to me, and I wonder what my results would have been if I had just gone with one of the other Drs. I know he did a slight reduction on my larger side because I was SO adamit about not wanting implants to go up in size...only to even me out. He asked me if I was OK being a little larger than what my largest side was already and I said "NO", so he did the reduction to prevent that from happening. I ended up being pretty much the same size (as my largest side) I was before I went I had the surgeries. The great part was that the reduction didn't change anything (pain level, shape, incisions, price etc) except make me slightly more even before the augmentation. He even said I may not want to do the implants once I see the results of the lift and reduction. I admit, I thought about not doing it because they looked pretty darn good (and WAY better than originally), but I still felt my smaller side needed to be more filled out, so I opted to do the augmentation.
I really did love everything about his manner and my results, and as we all know no 2 experiences are alike. He just may not be the right Dr for you and thats OK!
Good luck with your searches! I hope you found someone you love and your surgery goes well! :)
Yes. I'm not in a huge hurry. I know it will happen enventually and I'd want it to happen in the best way possible so I have the best end results possible. I've been trying to massage frequently and make sure I avoid capsular contracture and help them on their way to perfection.
I feel a MILLION times better than I did before. I love love love my new set!
You will LOVE him! Dr. Yates is such a good and genuine guy, and will only suggest what you really need and nothing more. It was obvious to me he is in the business because he loves it and not for the money. The only reason I did the augmentation was to even out the size and shape of my breasts. If they had naturally been more even I would have been VERY happy with the lift alone. Even before the augmentation I was happy with my results. Many people thought they looked good enough and questioned why I was even doing the augmentation. I thought about just foregoing the implants, but I knew in the end it would bother me that they were still uneven in size and shape.
If you don't have the problem I did or you don't want your breasts bigger I'm sure a lift alone will be suffcient. Dr. Yates will give you his honest opinion. I'm excited to hear about how your consult goes!
I was told it could take 6-12 weeks. So I'm at least a couple weeks out at minimum. I'm hoping they are dropped by my wedding in mid Februaury, but if they aren't I will still be happy with how they look.
I can't tell you how happy it makes me when I look down and see boobs that look normal!! I LOVE it. I wish I would have done it years ago! I'm so glad I found such an amazing Dr. He really performed a miracle...I never thought my results would be this good!
