I'm 13 days out from my surgery and my mind is racing, mostly over sizing. All my life I've been athletic and my body has followed suit. I've always wanted bigger breasts to achieve a more femine and balanced look to my body. Initially I went in for a consult and agreed on a 450cc silicone mod+ but I went back recently and the ps measured my bwd at 15 cm and told me I could go much bigger and it would still appear natural. We did some virtual reality consulting and I'm now feeling comfortable being beteeen the 550cc and 600cc. Ultimately what fits best is up to my surgeon but I'm glad to be a bit more relaxed on the sizing, for now atleast.

I just had moderate sientra 595cc, unders, silicone, on April 10 and I am still a little worried they are sitting high. I'm glad you posted pics because it reassured me that I need to be patient.

I've had a small chest my entire life, 34b 15cm bwd. I'm ready now and extremely confident in my surgeon to finally get the breasts I've always wanted to help me feel more feminine and confident. I was back and forth with the sizing but after seeing some of the results virtually I've decided on the 550-600 cc silicon implants. I've talked extensively with my ps about my goals and I trust he'll make the appropriate sizing choices on the day of my surgery. Still feeling nervous, but mostly excited.

I'm a 12 days out from my surgery and getting some jitters. I've always wanted bigger breasts for a more feminine look due to always having had a more athletic build. Most of the jitters are about sizing, I didn't want anything overly large or fake so I was initially very focused on the cc number. But after researching and speaking with my ps I feel more comfortable going with the higher cc due to having a wider chest and a bwd of 15cm. Also, the ps did virtual sizing and it was extremely reassuring. Now I just count down the days!

I so hear you about the sizing! I keep reading that most complications come about with implants over 375cc's, so I'd figured I'd stay in that range for a maximum. I'm 61 y.o. And have no need for unnecessary problems! (BTW, I haven't had my 1st consult yet, not till 12/20.) So, today I got out the tape measure, thinking I'm measuring my BW, and though I'm volumeless, I determined that my BW is 15.4 (measuring from the beginning of my cleavage straight across, under my breast, to the outside edge of my breast)! I never really noticed before what a narrow space I actually have between my little ol' breasts. Yikes! When I look at implant sizing charts for a moderate profile, my BW will require a size of 475 cc's or even larger! So, now I'm freaked out! I should just calm down until I have my consult. Dr. Vath also uses a Vectra virtual Imaging machine - only 1 week to go! I'll definitely be following your story and am wishing you the outcome you desire!

I hope it all works out for you! I found it's best not to concentrate on the number of Ccs, that'll drive a person nuts. When you go to your consult try being as descriptive as possible and bring examples of the outcome you wish for. I became comfortable with my size after I felt comfortable and completely trusting of my ps.

Getting things prepared

I'm trying to quell my anxiety by getting things ready for after the surgery. I ordered a sit-up pillow and a post-op bra on amazon. Also, I noticed a lot of girls posting about muscle relaxers post-op and my ps never prescribed me any. I will have to call them on Monday and ask. They're going to love and my million questions. So far they've been extremely helpful and informative with any questions I have had. I'm pretty confident I picked a great ps and team to perform this surgery.

My surgery is in five days, so I know how you feel! Don't feel guilty about asking your PS a million questions. This is a huge, expensive, health-involving decision, and you need all the information you can get to make it wisely. Good luck!

Good luck! These countdown days are the worst. I've never spent so much time reading about something. What size implants are you going with?
