Hey everyone! I am so glad to have found this site! I have always pondered getting a boob job since I was in high school, but the older I got the more this pondering became a desire. Now that I can finally afford it, I'm taking the plunge! A little about my story, when I was in middle school, I had a slim ruler shaped body with stick legs...and I didnt mind it! Life was great! As I passed through high school, I noticed my hips and thighs filling out while my boobs remained the same middle school state. At that point I decided if my boobs didn't catch up by the end of college, I would go forth with my dream. Alas here I am with the same early high school sized boobs pursuing my dream of adding new partners in crime to my physique.

After several months of research on plastic surgeons(including reading every single review available) in my area as well as obsessive wish boob pic searching lol, I've decided to go with Dr.Colgrove!
My stats:
Height: 5'5"
Weight: 165
Current bra size: 34A

Dr. Colgrove and his staff are AMAZING!!!! They have walked me through every step of the process and as I sit here in so much pain (day 4 post op), I already know this was one of the BEST decisions I've ever made. Good luck to you!!!

Thanks misty25! Did you get a chance to discuss your final look of what you wanted (aka show him your wish pics) on the day of your BA?

Be warned I have quite a few :-) I am looking for more fullness and a size large enough to balance my curvy bottom half

So glad you started a pre op review! Great wish boob pictures! Do you know about what size implant you'll need to achieve this look?

I'm planning on getting 500-575cc silicone (will make the final decision at my preop visit). My PS chose to go with mod plus profile...I'm co fused at what the different profiles mean :-(

Here is a Guide to Breast Augmentation Terminology which might help explain the different profiles. Hope this helps!

The only other thing that really helped me grasp what I would look like with those size boobs is actually seeing them on my size body. The downside with most topless photos is they are all skinny minnies (jealous). We have similar stats and something that helped me alot was googling "plus sized topless model" or going to websites like "curvykate." These search terms give pictures of curvy girls with larger breasts which is so helpful in picturing what our body types would look like :) I went in thinking I would be happy with 500-550cc MAX. I would never have thought an implant larger than that would have looked good on me. I also tried on 500cc and they just seemed ok. I didn't try on anything larger after that I just made my boobie wish board and left it in the hands of my PS to decide in surgery what cc to use. I stressed to him my importance of wanting proportionality. I wanted the upper to match the curve of my hips and butt. I ended up with 595 and 655!! He freakin' nailed it!! I am so very happy with my result and from what I have heard they will get a little bigger by dropping and fluffing. I really think they fit my body and do not scream "boob job." I am so excited for you!!

Consultation with Dr. Colgrove

Hey ladies! So I'm a little (or a lot rather) behind on posting this review of my consultation with Dr. Colgrove. I had my consultation on February 4th. I brought my bf with me as a 2nd opinion on the sizers as I had a small inkling of what i wanted from looking at reviews (no more than 425ccs I was sure of it!).

Anywhoo, once we got there and signed in, there was a bit of a wait as some of the client consults had ran over. However, the staff was very friendly and the office was nice and clean. We were led into the consult room by Dr. Colgrove's nurse and watched a short video on BA as well as were given 2 picture books to look at his previous work. On the table,  they have the 2 picture books, and 3 different size/type implants: a 300cc saline implant, 400/425cc gummy bear (cohesive gel) implant,  and a 600 silicone implant.  Based on feel alone(as well as prior research on the different types of implants), I loved and chose the Silicone implant.

Once the video was over, I was given a sizer bra try  on with the sizers. The first size I tried on was 375cc. Omygoodness I felt there was no difference at all than when I wear a softly padded bra! I asked for the 50cc additions (taking me to 425cc) and felt that I looked like I was wearing a moderately padded bra :-(. Wanting to try on a bigger sizer, the nurse brought in the 500cc implants. These looked humongous!  After closing mine and my bfs mouth from the shock of how huge they looked lol I tried them on...and they felt awesome! Definitely more of the feel I was going for.

After deciding on 500ccs(meaning 525cc implants), Dr. Colgrove came in and took my measurements.

Under-30
Across-33
Above-34
Diameter-15
