ORIGINAL POST

Hey guys! I finally booked my BA for October 16th...

Hey guys! I finally booked my BA for October 16th in Bristol TN with Dr. Emory! I've decided to go with saline and I'm thinking 400-450ccs. My one big question is should I go over or under the muscle? I'm about a 34B right now and both breasts are exactly the same size (I'm 21-21-21) I'm going for a full round look. I'm 5'6 150 pounds (I'm bigger on the bottom haha) and I really want a small D/full C. Any tips, hints, advice, etc. are welcome :)

Congratulations on scheduling your surgery date! If you haven't done this already, you may want to share several wish boob photos with your PS to make sure you're both on the same page about your final results. Often times your PS will advise you about under or over the muscle. You must have enough tissue if you were given a choice. Here is a helpful link from our Doctor Q&A discussing over versus under with breast implants. Looking forward to your updates!

I'm 15 days away from my surgery and I'm surprisingly calm. I finally decided on 475cc saline mod+ under the muscle maybe filled to 500-525cc. I've been getting everything ready for when I come home! My prescriptions are filled and I was wondering if I should bring them with me on the day of surgery? I've also been caking on the coco butter hoping to prevent stretch marks! I have bought 5 front clasp sports bras one under armour, one Bally, two from JC Penny (they were 2 dollars), and one from burkes outlet that was 65 CENTS (yes cents lol) I'm getting really excited and I love all of you guys for sharing your stories! :)

Hi and congratulations on your upcoming surgery. Here's a link to what I think is a very detailed and useful pre-op (recovery) shopping list. Hope this helps

Congrats on setting up your BIG DAY :) Mine is just 5 days away and I'm surprisingly calm an collected- guess its because I've been waiting since march anyways- This has been a long process that has taken forever but it's given me plenty of time to save money, shop for postop goodies, and prepare myself mentally for this- I'm getting 575cc Silicone medium profile smooth round implants under the muscle and through the breast crease incision. Good Buys on the bras by the way- that's dirt cheap :) Looks like we're just a week apart from each other on our surgery dates so GOOD LUCK and can't wait to keep up with your updates.

Thank you and congrats to you to! It looks like we are going about the same size and the same incision..I just chose saline because I like the thought of him being able to fill them up to fit me. I'm getting really excited! Good luck and don't forget to let me know how it all goes! :)

Good luck with having your Breast Augmentation surgery. Everyone heals so differently. I was up and moving around the next day. Take your meds as prescribed and listen to your body. It'll let you know what you can handle. For morning boob.... get up and walk around, the sooner you do, you will be more comfortable, promise:). I didn't bring any meds with me to surgery. I was in some pain waking up and they gave me a pain pill. And on my way home. Good luck again

Thank you so much for the advice! This is my first time taking pain medication so I'm a little nervous about it. I hope I'm up and moving like you! This is my first surgery so I hope it goes well. You look awesome! I'm all about going big or going home lol :)

Thanks... Did you decide under or over the muscle? It was explained to me over the muscle would give a Hooters girl look and under will be more natural. Which ever you choose I'm sure will flatter your figure. October 16th is just around the corner so exciting. Good luck try not to stress it really isn't all that bad for a surgery:). And with this site all the info I'm sure you already know, it'll be smooth for you. I never put my phone down and read all the time about a BA. Looking forward to seeing how all turns out

I finally decided on under the muscle because of rippling. Although rippling doesn't really bother me, I'd like to still somewhat prevent it. I stay on here 24/7 lol but it has been a life saver!

Oh I kinda forgot about rippling. Going under probably helps prevent it. But I choose Silicone because it has less chance of rippling. I picked up a Saline implant and I could hear the liquid inside also it just felt like a water bag with air bubbles. And on a personal note they feel so real when you squeeze em
