After my son I lost all volume in my breasts leaving me with a deflated look that I had never experienced before. I began looking into BA and Dr. Mehlings was recommended. I met with two surgeons of very different styles and practices. Dr. Mehlings process was a longer wait for initial consult and required some patience on my part. So worth the wait I am very pleased with the entire experience with Dr.Mehling and his team and I feel I got outstanding results.
I had 4 kids in a little over six years and it definitely showed on my tummy. I dieted and exercised for a year and was successful in taking off all the baby weight, but my stomach was still round and lose and lumpy. I am extremely happy with the result - a nice flat tummy FINALLY! The recovery was harder, longer and more painful than I had expected. I'm not sure I'd ever go through that again! But I don't regret having the surgery. Totally worth it!
Hi to everyone. I am a mom of 3 amazing daughters. The first is turning 19 and she was a c-section birth and then there are my six year old twins (natural birth). My c-section was disastrous and left me with a wide ugly scar, which I had revised a year later, but it didn't heal well in the middle, so I was never happy with how it looked. I have always been fit and after both pregnancies was back to my normal weight of 126 lbs within 5 months but with stretchmarks on both sides. The ones on my butt never bothered me that much (first pregnancy) but the ones I developed this time around have brought me so much negative emotions and made me very self conscious. I have had Fraxel, Thermage and Titan on my abdomen and although I did see some improvement, it wasn't drastic. I had three consults with different plastic surgeons and decided to go with the third Dr. He made me feel comfortable and I was really impressed with the photos of the tummy tucks he had preformed on previous patients with a similar build to mine. One comment made by all three Dr.'s was that I didn't have enough skin for a full tummy tuck (probably bc of the skin tightening procedures) unless I went with an upside down t-scar. I have stretchmarks above my navel (and tonnes below), so it was very disappointing to hear that they would have to stay. I have opted to have a mini, with muscle tightening but I still have to have a hip to hip incision. I am booked for May 6th and I am getting very nervous, almost wanting to back out. I keep looking at the pictures on here of the scars and it freaks me out. I am also afraid of the recovery and the drain tubes, that looks so gross. I see others have set up recovery rooms but I just don't have anywhere to do that. I will have to keep sharing the bed with my husband during recovery... any suggestions on what will help to keep me comfortable (and him) in my queen bed would be greatly appreciated as would any words of encouragement. Does everyone feel this way? I applaud everyone for posting pictures, it is interesting to see the transformation. It would be great to see some one or two year post ops too, which I plan to do. Pictures to follow soon! Updated on 4 May 2011: Today was the last workout before my surgery and it was a good one - two more sleeps! I am looking forward to getting this over with and to start my recovery. The anticipation of what I am going to look like is killing me!! Updated on 6 May 2011: Had my surgery today and I feel great! Very minimal pain so far - hoping tomorrow is the same. The drain is not so bad and the binder feels perfectly supportive. I won't see anything until my first post-op visit on Monday - excited to see what I look like under all this padding :) Updated on 8 May 2011: So - Day 2 Post-Op. I am feeling really good! I had to adjust my binder so of course decided to peak and take a picture ... Updated on 9 May 2011: Day 3 post op - there was a blockage in my drain tube when I woke up this morning, so I had to squeeze it through, gross. The liquid in my tubes now looks yellowish and no longer bright red. I have had no major feelings of pain so far, a few twinges but otherwise just minor discomfort (I have been diligent in taking my pain meds on time and will be cutting back to half a dose today). I am very pleasantly suprised, I thought this would be much worse. Still haven't had a BM though, so more yummie prune juice today (blah). First Post-op appointment with Dr. Mehling is at 1:00 today - can't wait to hear what he has to say! It's also my 37 Birthday today and this is the best present! Updated on 11 May 2011: Day 5 Post Op: I am amazed at my body, not just the transformation but its incredible ability to heal. I am far from back to normal but there is definite positive progress. The pain I expected never transpired. I wonder now, if that expectation was linked to the emotional pain I have carried for the past six years over my deep dislike for my tummy, the despair I felt, my inability to feel attractive, my jealousy of 'perfect' women - but now, it is gone. I have a new body to get to know, a new tummy, a new outlook and I am so excited! Updated on 13 May 2011: Today is my Post-op Day 7. I am not on any pain meds at all and will be finished my antibiotics this afternoon! I still have that tight feeling but it's manageable. My drain output is down to 15cc in a 24 hour period, so I called my Dr. and will most likely be getting that out on Monday! Yesterday, I went out grocery shopping (with help!) and looking for a compression garment (which took 2.5 hours because I have to walk slowly) and noticed swelling in the evening but today it is definitely gone down. I find that if I do spurts of activity around the house and then rest for 10-20 minutes, I don't get overly tired. I can wait to see what I look like next week. Updated on 16 May 2011: Day 10 Post Op: Drain-less! Yes ... freedom. I am so excited to have a real shower tonight. Dr. also removed the tape from my incision and sent me home with Mepiform to start on June 6. The drain removal was, for lack of a better word, creepy. When he cut the stitch that was holding it in place it pinched; when he pulled the drains out it felt like wiggly worms coming out, all of 30 second ordeal and done - phew. I have a small hole now and am to clean it twice daily with peroxide, followed by polysporin. After that went to lunch and shopped - will probably be paying for that tonight. Now I just have to watch for fluid pockets around the incision - hope that doesn't happen. He said the likely-hood is low since my drain output was only at 10cc. I still walk with a short gate - Geisha like short shuffle steps and slightly hunched over, so it seems like it takes forever to get around in big spaces. I would like to sleep in my bed (although I am now use to this recliner chair!)but my husband tosses and turns so much I am a bit afraid he might elbow me, so we will see - might have to build a pillow wall between us! Updated on 20 May 2011: Two weeks post op today. I went to see the Dr. who told me to ditch the binder and wear a light compression garment, as well I am to start taking Advil to help reduce evening swelling. My incision looks great and I can start the Mediform scar therapy next week (a whole two weeks early). I still walk fairly slow and am very aware of the tightened muscles, I wonder if it will always feel this way and I will just get use to it or does it actually go away? Time will tell. For now it looks like I will be returning to work next Tuesday - back to reality but with a new tummy :) Updated on 3 Jun 2011: Post op 4 weeks: I have recovered from last weeks nasty cold but I am sure that set my healing back a week with all the coughing and sneezing. I was so afraid that my muscle tightening would somehow be weakened or damaged. I haven't had a cold in so long, but with reduced immunity from surgery I couldn't fend off the virus that was being passed around our home. I have been driving my kids to school and running errands since week two and there was no hiding that I had surgery, especially from school moms, so I have been answering a lot of questions. I found out one other Mom had a TT two years ago and a few others want to have it done but after seeing me walking, they thought it looked too painful, haha. I returned to work four days ago; even though I sit at a desk, I still found it tiring. Walking is easier but I have to be careful not to walk too quickly or with long strides (I am usually a very fast walker), so this is a challenge. If I do, I am quickly reminded with a twinge or strained feeling in my lower abdomen that I need to slow down or shorten my stride, yes body, I am listening. I am now sleeping in bed with my husband but still on my back with pillows under my knees and a neck rest - oh fetal position, I miss you. My butt is starting to look flat and I long to work out but I am just not ready yet. My next Post Op is on June 17, two weeks away. How do I feel about my results right now? Its a definite improvement from what I started with. I still see stretchmarks, especially in the sun. Alas, I was hoping for a miracle but that is not happening. I feel this is the best result that could have been achieved in my situation. The alternative was a full TT with a long vertical scar and stretchmarks, I don't think that would have been better. I pick myself apart and am my own worst critic. My husband thinks I look sexy and I need to be happy with that! Will I be able to shed this self consciousness and wear a bikini or will the one piece bathing suit be the only way I feel confident ... ?? Hmph. Updated on 12 Jun 2011: 5 Weeks Post-op: What a difference! Since my last post, I can't believe the improvement in how I feel. I am standing up straight (finally), the tightness from the muscle repair is totally gone. My scar is healing very well and I have such a flat tummy! I do still experience end of the day swelling but its very minimal. I have lost 6 pounds of muscle mass since the surgery, so I am looking forward to getting back to the gym but waiting for the go ahead from my PS next week. It's been a long 5 weeks with many emotional days but I know that resuming my exercise will complete the healing process for me. Updated on 29 Jun 2011: Just about to hit 8 weeks post op! Life is pretty much back to normal. Athough I was cleared to get back to the gym at 6 weeks po, I didn't have time until last week. It felt great to workout but I could feel my limitations, I do a lot of spin bike but I couldn't stand and peddle. I have to wait six months to resume any type of sit up, which is fine by me, as that is my least favorite exercise area! I have yet to sleep on my side either, I am a fetal position sleeper normally but even with pillows under my legs, it is not comfortable. One really positive difference I have noticed after the TT is that I do not wake up 3 or 4 times in the night to pee!? That is a great extra bonus for me. I have little to no swelling at night and just concentrating on healing my TT scar. I still struggle with the stretchmarks. I bought two bikinis but not sure if I will have the guts to wear them. The more time that passes and the flatter my tummy gets, the more noticeable they are. Not sure if I will try and get anything done about that, as there seems to be no treatment that works to drastically improve their appearance.
I'm 38, 5'8" 125lbs with no kids. Breast width 12.5cm wanting natural looking breasts. Apparently I have a long torso and long measurement from collarbone to nipple. I was measured and tried on sizers, my favourite was the smallest I tried, 325cc. Dr.Mehling informed me 350cc full height moderate projection would be best since I wanted the smallest implant that would look appropriate for my dimensions. I dislike the ring one gets from round high profile implants. I play sports and want this to be as subtle as possible. Updated on 7 Apr 2017: Wow that was fast! Surgery was at 7 and I was home and fed by 11am! The nurses were great. I'm in significant pain right now but otherwise feeling great! 2 percocets have hardly helped thus far. I'm very happy with the size (minus the swollen embarrassing nipples) and can't imagine any regrets. I got 350cc natrelle 410 FM. I weigh 120pounds and am 5'8". My breast width is 12.5cm and so are the teardrop implants. Updated on 8 Apr 2017: Swollen this morning after a great sleep on my back. Iced my breasts a lot and it seems to soothe them, pain is less. Nipples are already way less sensitive than yesterday! Keeping up with Percocet every 6 hours. Still extremely happy about my decision and actually thinking I over thought it way too much!! Updated on 9 Apr 2017: Rough. Swollen and painful. Worst of it came because of Percocets causing gas and bloating pains so went to regular Tylenol. Not fun. But thanks to this site I knew what to expect regarding swelling. Getting up from laying down is very difficult. Help is required. Updated on 11 Apr 2017: Pain no longer an issue, just Tylenol or advil for the heck of it. They feel like hard lumps on my chest. Getting excited though! Nipples aren't overly sensitive but still swollen along with boobs. Breasts are still numb. Doctor says I have to wear this bra for 6 weeks so I really want to find a nicer black version. Updated on 23 Apr 2017: Love the right breast gentle slope but the left has a lump of cleavage/ring. Hoping it's just tighter, more swollen and this will fade. Mornings the breasts hurt a bit, nothing terrible. My nipples have had pain and severe sensitivity for about a week now... Updated on 19 May 2017: I'm happy. No regrets. Clothes option are great! I've been walking stairs and riding bike for weeks with no problems. Look forward to real sports next week. Severe nipple sensitivity lasted 2 weeks and started just before 2 weeks. Nipples have shrunk back to normal size since then. I feel my muscles above my implants still. That's the weirdest part!! Flexing your breasts when you use you chest muscles... eeeek weird. Breasts are still pretty firm. I look forward to them softening over the next few months. My scars are small and right in the crease. I had a slight reaction to the mepiform which I expected as I've been sensitive to a bandage similar in the past. I got fitted at Victoria Secret. 30D but they don't make it. I bought the 32C enlite bra at Lululemon for sports. It was the only sports bra I tried that didn't feel like it squished my breasts. I want them to keep their shape! Updated on 6 Jun 2017: Not much visually changed. I'm back playing sports and I hardly notice them. Updated on 9 Jul 2017: I wish they weren't quite in my armpit as much. Right appears slightly lower because nipple is higher and maybe that implant is slightly more lateral than the left. I hear they get better and better over time so hoping they'll continue to soften and move more in the coming months. Updated on 21 Sep 2017: Be nice if I had less side boob. Wish they were closer together but I guess surgeon did the best he could with what god gave me! Updated on 24 Jan 2020: I find my implants were placed wide (To keep my nipples centered) and they will always be firm but I do not regret getting them. I enjoy having a bit of cleavage. The implants are hardly movable because they are “highly cohesive” and gummy. I still do get rippling laterally when I lean forward. Want to know anything else?! Updated on 24 Jan 2020: The implants are still firm and I find them wide on my chest because the surgeon maintained my nipple at centre of breast. They are 12.5cm wide, 13cm high. I do not regret getting them. It is nice to have a little bit of cleavage. I certainly would never want bigger than this.
A little about me. I have always been so very "flat" to the point that people would point it out to me (like I didn't already know). Since childhood I've never been comfortable with my body, I hated buying bras because what was the point, they never fit me. When I was younger I would apologize to anyone taking off my top, as it was vastly different once my bra was taken off. That was usually after the bra hit the floor with a thud because of the water implants I had stuffed in there... Lol...If I ever bent over in front of anyone I always had a hand on my chest, as the second I bent over my bra would gap open and my nipples would be on full view. In yoga in certain poses my top with gap open as well and I'd have to hide the fact that I had nothing to keep the top tight enough from doing that. Don't even get me started on bathing suits, I had to buy the smallest top they had and sew in pads, or buys the ones that were super padded but 80$! If my arms went over my head I look like a boy with just nipples, it's very hard to have private time with my husband when I feel so ashamed of my body. It's such a big turn off. I was always trying to hide them, even going on holidays with family I'd leave my bra on till the last possible second, then wake up and put it on right away so no one saw how flat and pathetic I really was..... Finally my husband and I discussed after our boys are old enough handle things on their own that it was time. Time to feel like a woman should, time to be proud of my body and time to buy adult sized bras!!! I booked my first appointment with a family friend plastic surgeon , I think that appointment was 15 minutes long, consisted of him asking me saline or silicone. He asked me to lift up my top, didn't touch me, and told me I could pull off any size, handed me a card with his price hastily written on it, that was it ..... Well gee thanks... So appointment #2, the doctor was amazing. I had a full hour appointment with him where he went over the pros and cons of the 3 implants he offered. Then he marked me up and said because of my "no volume" told me the anatomical would work best on me to achieve my natural look that I wanted. We would talk sizes the next appointment. After i had a half hour appointment with his assistant, who talked prices (which were printed off and on professional paper) and made sure i didn't have any other concerns... So I went home and found this amazing site that let me view pictures of people and their stories and it really helped me out a lot.... I now know what I'm getting myself into. The price of beauty hey? Updated on 11 Dec 2013: So I had my sizing appointment yesterday. The doctor picked out 5 sizes that he thought would look good on me. I tried them all on and of course liked the biggest one the best. Since I'm getting the allergan 410's, there's only so many sizes that would fit my body. So we decided between two sizes 375cc MF and 420cc MF. I was toying between the two, I really wanted the 420 cc's, but it will JUST fit my frame and may stick out a bit...so he's going to see while in surgery if it will work, if not then I'll get the 375cc's. Either way I'm getting boobs! The assistant went over all my drugs that I will be getting and what to do before hand. I'm not nervous at all, I'm so excited to finally be able to feel sexy!!! By the way I forgot to mention I'm 30 years old with a 3yr and 5yr old boys. I'm booked and partially paid for the jab 9th appointment. My husband has taken a couple days off and my sister will be coming by to help as much as possible. My husband wants to take the boys swimming tonight but I really don't want to put on my tiny swim suit top and feel pathetic when I see a 13 year old with bigger breasts then I have..... Oh well less the a month to go!! The count down is on, let the house cleaning begin! Updated on 22 Dec 2013: The clock is slowly ticking down! I've cleared my closet of all the clothes that just fit now, probably wasn't the smartest thing as I took a trip to Florida and only had long sleeve shirts! Lol. I've asked most of my friends and family who have implants on their thoughts about size and their recovery. Everyone was happy with their size that they decided on and everyone's recovery was different. My sister never took a Tylenol and was fine after 3 days whereas my aunt was 1 week on meds. So I'm hoping for the best but preparing for the worst. I bought a huge bottle of Tylenol, face wipes,a heavy oil for stretch marks, I have all the shows marked on Netflix and anything else I could think of to make my go a little easier! (I know I'm a little over prepared) I've gotten my blood work done already, so I don't get busy and forget! I know my husband will be a gem through all of this and he is more then Excited to rub the oil all over my new boobies! Recovery should hopefully be a breeze with him by my side helping with the kids and cooking the meals. I will post my current boobie pictures soon! Updated on 31 Dec 2013: Updated on 31 Dec 2013: Well it's 10 days away. I've been so sick with a sinus infection, bronchitis and a ruptured ear drum from flying with a sinus infection. Called my doctor In fear thinking I wouldn't be able to do my surgery. She said I'd be fine with a heavy dose of antibiotics! This is the first time in my life I've actually taken my meds, I guess the boobs are the incentive. So it's been meds, lots of relaxing, drinking tons of water and Hot detox Epsom salt baths for the last week. Finally felt better to go to hot yoga last night to sweat it out! I'm going to try to go every day till my surgery, 4 months off from yoga will kill me! On a Happier note my husband asked me if I was pregnant again from all the cleaning I've been doing.... He called it breasting! I know I've gone a little over board and that I'm just going to have to redo it In a week, but it takes my mind off of boobs. I'm sure I know everyone's profile off by heart by now..... Lol. I posted pictures of the itty bitties, in 10 days I will be more then happy to kiss them Bye-bye! Can't believe its so soon, my mom is taking the kids for the night before the surgery, so we are going to have a nice date night on the 8th! What did everyone else's doctor say about going to yoga after surgery? Mine said 4 months while my other consult said 3 months?..... Just curious as to other women's time frames. Updated on 3 Jan 2014: omg it's almost here, only 6 days more to go! So yesterday I paid the doctor in full and got the go ahead that my blood work was fine! phew nightmares adverted!! I also got my arrival time which is 8:15am. I thought my original appointment was for 730, so something got mixed up there.....just means I will be more hungry by then. my mother said she would take my kids for 2 blissful nights, making it easier on my husband to care for me. I have been busy getting everything ready and cleaned for the big day, the kids start school on Monday so I will be able to go out kidless and get any remaining things I will need. I have to stock up on things I will run out of During recovery and since I won't be able to get to a mall, I have to do that soon!. My nerves haven't set in yet, more excited then anything and wishing time would speed up. pretty sure my family is getting mad at how much I am talking about the 'big day', but I'm just so excited, they will learn to deal! on a plus note I am almost finished my antibiotics and feeling 98% better! just have to work on the other 2%. hoping to just relax this weekend and sleep off any remaining cold in my warm house. weather man calling for -40c on Sunday, that's still -40f for my American friends out there! brrrrrr Updated on 6 Jan 2014: Well according to my countdown app I have 2days and 17hours left to go! I've read reread and read again all my papers and 'what to expect'. I have To Do notes all over the house.....So ready! Bought some new underwear in case they are in the new boobs picture...lol.... See what I mean? Over ready!! Updated on 7 Jan 2014: Updated on 7 Jan 2014: Added some photos of the soon to be old boobs! Will be so happy not to have to look at these every day! Updated on 9 Jan 2014: So I arrived at 830 was brought right back into a roon where she took my temperature and temperature. The doctor came in and marked me up and off we went. I. the operating room I got one of those blankets that blow hot air, I may need one of those! My IV was inserted and I was out. Woke up in some pain and feeling a little nauseous, was given some percaset and gravol and was fine. Waited 1hr post op and tried so hard to keep my eyed open, I felt cross eyed! We came home and took some pictures and I fell asleep for a good 3 hours! Some pain underneath the breasts but the ice seems to help. Updated on 9 Jan 2014: Updated on 11 Jan 2014: Day 2...had an awful sleep, had a very hard time trying to sleep elevated, my back seemed to take the brunt of the pain. After waking up i was little more sore then I thought I would be. Im super swollen around the bra band, not swollen in upper poles at all so That's a bonus. Under the breast is the most painful but ice and staying on time with my drugs is the key. Saw my doctor for my post op and he was very happy with the lack of swelling I had. He had four surgeries and said he thought id be the most swollen out of the bunch. ..bonus! I also started to bruise yesterday but went I went home and rubbed arnicare cream on the babies and took the arnicare pills and the bruising seems to be diminishing. day 3..... slept even worse last night, im so swollen in the bra band that my bra is super tight, even after getting a bigger one from the doctor. Ended waking up at 6 to come down stairs to throw some ice on the babies, took off my bra and take some more percaset. Today seems to be better, as long as I have ice on them im fine. Bruising is all gone and the breasts are starting to soften up on the top. The arnicare seems to be working, gives a comforting release with the gel and pills. All in all a rough 2 days but pain is beauty and its totally worth it! Updated on 11 Jan 2014: Updated on 13 Jan 2014: So on day 4 I developed some pain on my right breast right where the edge of the incision is. It hurts to touch and running my finger along the tape I can feel a little bump there. I fear I may have pulled a stitch while trying to be a big girl and put on my own jacket, I can't tell as there's tape covering it! Even putting a Kleenex on the site under the bra band hurts like a SOB. I emailed the doctor some pictures so I'm waiting to see when I can get in and get it checked. Other then That the pain is a lot better else where, swelling in the sides have gone down significantly. I'm very happy I didn't end up with a uniboob or frankenboobie which is frequently seen on here. My main point of pain in the tiny spot on the he incision site! I'm enjoying my new girls and my husband has been amazing during this recovery time, he won't let me do anything! So it figures the one time I try I pull a stitch! Haha Im hoping they move closer together as I feel they are quite far apart, my husband says they are perfect, but still I want closer boobs! Every day they are getting softer and softer, can't wait till I can squish them. Updated on 23 Jan 2014: Well it's been 2 weeks today since my surgery. The pain has mostly disappeared, my arm pit and side still hurt on my left side of my body (was told my doctor was extremely aggressive with me to get the implant in). I'm getting sensation back into my left nipple just today, my right had it from the start. Which I'm thrilled about, I was worried I'd have numb nipples for a long time! My breasts are looking awesome, the only bad part is the bra that I was given that I have to wear to keep my shape......They give me Madonna boobs complete with super long nipples! Haha so I've had to put a pad into my bra to tame the nipples a bit! I'm still taking it really easy as I find if I overdue it, I get sore under my arms and then we have to put my trusty ice pack back on it. They are starting to get itchy dispite the fact that I put oil on them everyday and have been for the last month, but that's normal I hear! I had my 10 day post op appointment on Monday where he took off the surgical tape, my incision site looks awesome and is healing well! My kids only noticed the tape and not the fact that I got "bigger", so I'm happy that I don't have to explain that. I just said the doctors made mommy better, they have been so good through this whole process. They are very careful not to jump onto me or asking me to carry them, they can get their snacks themselves and even get it all out on the counter ready for me to make so they can put it all back! they have been very independent which is awesome! I still can't believe I have them, every time I get ready I have to just sit there and stare. It's so amazing that I was able to do this with the help of my awesome husband. He still won't let me do anything around the house, which I'm sure is the reason I'm healing so nicely! Talk about a great catch! Updated on 9 Feb 2014: My boobs are 1 month old today! They are looking awesome, are super squishy now and am pain-free. The left boob is a little sensitive, but I have feeling back into the nipple and back underneath the breast, right boob has had feeling right from the start! Last night I went to the pool with the kids and was so happy and excited to go! I had cleavage!!!! It was the first time getting out of the pool that I didn't have to squish the water out of the breast pads! I didn't automatically try to cover them up to hide them, I was proud to display them! It's still hard for me to sleep, I have a foam mattress so it's not so soft and inviting to my breasts. It's quite uncomfortable to lay on my side or tummy and my back doesn't like back sleeping! So hopefully they will learn to like side sleeping soon! I'm still wearing the post op bra, which Is fine since it's so comfy. I bought a cheap soft cup bra that I got from target, I only wear it for lower cuts shirts and for short periods of time. I'm so happy with the decision I made. I picked the perfect size and I'm so happy I went with the anatomical shape verses the round shape. They fit my body perfectly and I'm having fun trying on all my pre-boob clothes and seeing how much better they fit me. My body needs me to work out and stretch it out, have find something to do until I can get back into yoga again.... Only 3 more months! I started my scar treatment yesterday. It's a silicone skin colored sheet that I cut to cover my scar. I leave it on 24 hrs except for showers (it's reusable). I can wear the same cover for a week, it's the only thing my doctor recommends! I'll post my 1 month photos soon! Updated on 2 Mar 2014: hey so has anyone else been breaking out in pimples on their chest? im breaking out where ive never before and its so annoying. all I want to do is show off my my assets and I cant due to red pimples! eeekkk this happened to anyone else? ive read that this is a side effect, so just wondering how to get rid of them and how long I can expect this lovely surprise! Updated on 23 May 2014: Well its been 4 months since my surgery and I am loving them more and more each day. I am a full C cup with no padding but a small D cup if there's any padding in the bra! How fantastic is that?! I started back to yoga at 3 months, one month earlier then suggested, but I needed to get back!I just took it really easy for a month..... I love peeking down in certain poses and seeing them all full, such a great feeling compared to before. I am so happy with my decision to get them. Its awesome trying on new dresses that I never would have looked at before. Braless is a great feeling!
Hello everyone. I'm new to this site. I'm originally from Cuba, living in Canada. I'm 20 years old and had a baby, breastfeed for over a year. My breasts are very saggy, they look very bad. i've always been small, and im planning to stay small with the AB, as I am thin, about 104 lbs and I dont think I would look good with larger breasts! I just want them fuller and firm. I've been thinking about it over and over. Your stories make me more secure and has helped me to finally make the decision! I'm nervous about the negative sides, but very excited to have my breasts back and even better. I so far called one of the best surgeons in Edmonton, he's very busy. So the receptionist just ask for my address and she would send me a package with all the information and procedures etc, she said they'll probably won't be able to see me in 3 to 4 months maybe more, because there's a waiting list. Im just waiting for the mail to get home and will call back, and see what happens from there. I would like to get some information on your own experiences with saline or silicone. Under or over the muscle. And if I dont know what to choose, although once I see the doctor he'll let me know what's best for me, but i'll like to hear your own experiences!! Thank you so much!! Will be updating as things happen.. Updated on 28 Oct 2013: Hello Just a little update. I called Dr. Mehling today (the recepcionist actually) and I asked how long I would have to wait for my consultation, she said about 4-5 months and after the consultation I might have to wait another few months, she sAid it could take up to a year I SAID WHOOOOOTTTT !! So I decides to call another surgeon and they gave me a consulation for decemberrrr 19!!!!!!!!!!!! Im soooo excited super excited !!! I really couldnt wait that long with dr mehling .. I will be posting some wish boobs and some of my own... Which is embarrasing because I dislike them very much, but it is much helpful to have those there, in order for you to be able to give me more advices etc. Anyway I do want to have the silicone.. Whatever is most natural, and size still dont know as im not too familiar with the sizes of implants... Im gonna have to google that as well! Updated on 28 Oct 2013: Updated on 29 Oct 2013: Hello! Just wanted to share with those that are still deciding on size, kind of implants etc etc, just like I am! Buu.. I was googling (im addicted now) and I found this site I find it very helpful. It has helped me with sizes. I now think i should be choosing a size in the 300's just not sure Might go for 350 or 375 as I dont want them too big but I do want them to be noticeable. Still deciding on round or tear- drop ughhhh Cant wait for my consultationn !!!!! Hopefully the doctor will help me decide! i do know i want silicone.. This is the site !! www.edelsteincosmetic.com Just click where it says GALLERY And it will give you the options to choose size and more ;D Updated on 5 Dec 2013: Hellooo so my consultation was suppose to be dec 19 but my ps's assistant called me and booked me for dec. 5 ! I finally met dr Campbell. He was great. And im very thankful I found him. He measured me, showed me the different sizes and kinds of implants, showed me before and adter pictures, talked to me about how everything would work, where the surgery would take place, how long it would take, what to expect after, etc etc. he is choosing high profile for me, i dont remember what he said about projection, but i'm going to leave it all to him. He really knows what he's doing, and I already trust him. For the size he said i would be good with size from 290cc - 370cc somewhere in there... He did say he didnt want me to look like I did have implants. He told me try the rice terick thing (lol) which I will try... He said I would go from a small A to a full B. I just have to make the final decision and decide to go ahead with it.. He said in within a month he can do my surgery. Wooow im so excited but confused, unsure, anxious, scared, not sure if to do it or not, omg I'm sooo nervous! Price ranges from $8600 + !!! Im very very confused... Im going to bed now and overthink everything i've already think about lol Good night ladies !!! Please any comments, advices, anythingggg is much appreciated :) Congratulations to all that already hve and are enjoying their new girls, good luckk to the ones that are already scheduled for their surgeryy, and to thoseee still thinking about it like I am well good luck to ya'll as welll!!!! :) PEACE !
