Ive paid all the surgeons fees ($4500 total) for my BA scheduled 4 weeks away. I've only been considering a BA for a few months. One thing led to another and here I am scheduled for surgery! I don't hate my boobs, and I never wear pushup bras. I feel like I regret this decision already but the paperwork I signed says that there are no refunds given after the pre op appointment!
