Hello:)
Had my first BA done at the age of 25 w/ 280cc HP saline. I didn't go big because I knew I wanted kids and that my breast would change. Fast forward 10 years, 3 kids later, my breast have deflated and sagged...as expected.
I had a consultation with Dr. Colgrove April 24th. He seems very knowledgeable, professional and to the point. What he recommended I get done, is pretty much what I expected based on my research. I didn't think simply putting a bigger implant would correct my sagging. Additionally, my right breast sags a little more than my left. My right breast pretty much dominated during my breastfeeding years. So he recommended a breast implant exchange w/mini lift and pocket revision because my breast are further apart than they should be. During my consultation, I stated I wanted ideal 400cc moderate...but I think I'm going to up it to ideal 430cc moderate during my pre-op.
I am not nervous about the surgery as this will not be my first rodeo. But I am nervous about my breast/nipples being completely uneven after surgery. I know both breast will always be slightly different...however, no matter if a PS has hundred great reviews, it takes reading one bad one to make you completely nervous.
I have my pre-op June 20 and surgery scheduled for July 7th. It seems so far away...but I'll just be patient and obsess about my breast until then. Lol

Blood work done.

I got my blood work done today. My PS has his patients do basic blood work which includes a very simply test to see how long it test your blood to clot. This is important because you want to know if you have thin blood which is important for just about any surgery. I know some PS's don't require blood work; however, I'm glad my PS does. I believe he really wants his patient's body to be as ready for surgery as possible so I had no issue paying the 115$ for the blood work.
I have my pre-op 6/20 and surgery 7/7. I am leaning heavily towards getting 500cc. I'll see what the doc says during pre-op!

Pre-op

Pre-op complete. 17 more days! Met with the nurse and I decided on 535cc to replace my unnoticeable 280cc. I'm getting Ideal implants. They only come in HP...so HP it is. Didn't meet with the PS this one around; however, I am not nervous about that. This is what he does so I'm trusting that.
My surgery is at 7am, 7-7-17!...I'm feeling lucky! So excited!
