Breast Revision (extrusion) fixed 15 years later

Ok I am not sure what to pick for my procedure so...
WORTH IT$7,500
Ok I am not sure what to pick for my procedure so I went with Breast Implant Revision. The last time I posted I picked removal that was a mistake. I am new to posting things on message boards so I am just getting use to how this site works. But so far I am loving Real Self. I am so grateful to have found this website. In addition to support from other women. i hope to document everything for the other women who have had a breast extrusion and have issues like my self. i could not find anyone out there yet who has documented a situation like mine. I hope to help other women and support them on there personal journey too. Real Self has given me the tools to seek out the right surgeon for my very rare problem. I had a date schedule in Nov. with a local surgeon. I found this site because I left my consultation with a lot of un answered questions. Like what can I expect when I wake up. I felt that straight forward Breast Implant surgery would leave me with the same problems I have now but magnified. So I posted a question for the Dr.s I realized there were Dr.s who had actual experience fixing my scars with pictures to prove it. I spoke with Dr. Prichard and canceled my Nov. appointment with the local Dr. I had chosen. No doubt a gifted surgeon. Just not the right one for me. I was quoted a pretty high price from Dr. Prichard but after speaking with him and hearing his plan I know it will be worth every penny. I am not a straight forward case. Unfortunately it's gonna cost more. But I know when I wake up I will be happy and not upset with crazy lopsided D cups. I need a lift by changing the location of my nipples and size to make them symmetrical and the same size. The old scar from the old implants will be gone too! Thank goodness! I need to have scar tissue scrapped which is very painful. Probably the pockets need fixing too. Then implants.....silicone implants in a small C cup. I could not get across to my original surgeon that size was not my issue. Dr. Prichard understood all my concerns and addressed them and his plan to fix it! I will be saving up the additional money over the winter my goal is to be ready by April. My next post will be in October. I have a follow up mammogram. My first one in May showed some lumps which is probably scar tissue from past surgeries. Just to be sure they are having me back in October so fingers crossed.......
Dr. Prichard originally quoted me at 13,500 I asked him to honor the discount on Real Self and he did! So that gets me 1,000 closer!!!!!!

Hi free to be me. Thanks for posting and sharing your journey. I had trouble finding the right place to post as well. Real Self has been invaluable to me in offering education and support as well as a place to journal my feelings and progress. It's great to hear first hand from other women. I hope you post again soon.

Hi V. Real Self has been a great resource for me. I just could not wait to save the kind of money it would take so I kept looking and found a great Dr. that can help me for a price I can afford. I waited 15 years I can't wait any longer. I deserve to go NOW. Lmao! But without Real Self I never would have found what I needed the get boobs done right. Thanks for reading my story :)

Soooooo excited I just can't even take it.
I had another consult with Dr. Pousti. His price Quote came in at 7,200. I was expecting 10,000 and to need to wait and save till who knows when spring summer...... Who knows....... But he said 7,200. I emailed and asked them to take another look. They said ok. It's 7,200. I made my plans immediately. I'm still just accepting that in six weeks I will be Mrs. New Boobs! I secured my surgery date today and time off work. Lol I have to make a new review, again.....lol! I must look nuts!
