I was never happy with the size of my chest. I was already so much taller than everyone else growing up, being flat just made life more difficult. They did at least have a good shape to them, even though they were small. After my oldest daughter was born, i managed to lose all the baby weight and then some and then I was really left with nothing. It didnt bother me terribly at the time for some reason. After I had my youngest daughter and was done breastfeeding I went to Soma to buy a new bra. Nothing fit. Everything had a gap at the top because I had nothing to fill the cup. Being tall and having broad shoulders, I looked ridiculous in a 32A (which didnt fit either), it looked like I was wearing a training bra. Obviously wearing a bigger size wasnt an option either, so I left with nothing and fighting back tears of frustration. It was hard to imagine that I would be stuck like this forever. The two regular bras I wore all the time were old, stretched out, and the underwire dug into my ribs all day, a constant reminder of this part of my body that I was really growing to despise. A small sports bra was too tight in the band and under the arms, and a medium literally was wrinkly in the front because I had nothing there.
After talking to my SIL and BFF about it, they both encouraged me to say something to my husband. I was nervous about it bc even though he is the greatest guy on Earth, he is also pretty practical, and I never thought in a million years he would say yes.

But he did. He said, "Honey, if this is something that is really bothering you, let's do something about it. We will figure it out."

I only knew one person locally who had recently had a BA, so I asked her about her experience and she raved about Dr Connors. So I had my consultation and quickly got my Pre-op and surgery date set.

I decided on 375cc HP textured silicone under the muscle. My BWD was pretty small, he said in mod + the biggest I could go was 275cc. I also have a chest wall deformity, so I didnt want to risk complications by trying to fight to go bigger. I also wasnt looking to have gigantic knockers, I just wanted to have what made sense for my body. I was excited, never for a second did I wonder if I was making the right decision, I was ready.

(Im trying to upload pictures and it's not working, Ill try it as a separate post)

I have 375cc HP textured silicone under the muscle.
March 26, 2015
awesome! So does HP mean high profile?
March 26, 2015
I went yesterday for my vector imaging, and he only had moderate profile as an option. I called the office this morning saying I like the look of high profile more. He is supposed to be calling me back.
March 26, 2015
I'm really glad you are posting on this site. You have no idea how you are putting my mind at ease. So nice to have someone on here with a similar build, and know you still fit in your clothes nicely after adding boobs! haha

You look great! Lucky good job posting you are already helping others w this review! Beanpole I'm 6'0 and 138# and got 400cc HP w Vectra imaging you can check our my review for pics. I'm One week post op !
March 27, 2015
Thank you! I just looked!! I called my doc earlier today, and he told me that my breast will not accept HP, unless I used a textured implant. After seeing you girls' results, I think I want the HP textured.... :) I probably am going to need to go back and get a new session of imaging. He only shows two possible sizes a session. I wish I had known more when I went in, but I'm so glad I do now before I get operated on.

I had no idea how much I didn't know going into my consultation. It's way more than just saline/silicone and a goal cup size.
March 27, 2015
Agree. I was only showed two sizes on Vectra w MP and after reviewing this site I went back for another consult for HP imaging. I'm 400cc round smooth HP under muscle :)

I was shown 275cc mod+ and 350cc HP on Vectra at my consultation and then I asked them to show me 375 HP at my pre op. I tried on 275 mod + and 350 mod + sizers at the consult (the 350 bc there happen to be 2 of them in the room I was in) and at my pre op I tried on 350 and 375 HP sizers

I made rice sizers at home, but I swear I must have done something wrong bc they just looked weird on me.
March 27, 2015
That 3 week pic is outstanding!! I hope im like that in 2 weeks since we have such close stats and similar style. Fingers crossed!

And I'm not doing massage bc I have textured. The PA said the friction of massaging with textired isn't good for healing.
March 27, 2015
I wonder if I should do massage. My doctor said up to me whatever I wanted to do.

Some girls swear by it, I'm just doing what my surgeon and his PA told me to do (or not do, as the case may be)
