WORTH IT
I was the only girl in my family to have a full chest naturally and the only girl to have not purchased any since I had no need. But after weight fluctuations and time/gravity my breasts had gone from an amazing full D to a sad B cup. I was pretty bummed about this since great boobs had always been "my thing" but I was scared to get implants or a lift since I was nervous about ending up w huge fake boobs as many of my friends/family have and that was def not the look I was going for. In comes Dr. Gordon, who had been highly recommended by several friends who had great results. I scheduled several consults w different Dr.'s to make sure I was covering all the bases, but all the other consults did was reaffirm that Dr. Gordon was the right choice. The office and staff was comfortable all the way around: modern and friendly but clean and professional. They let me try on lots of sizers to be sure I was happy with my breast size choice (and even send you home with a self pic in sizers and tee so you can reference back to approximate results ;)). Other Dr.'s just assured me they knew what was rt for my body and it was better to go off pics and trust their expertise and experience. Dr. Gordon let me do both, show pics and do the sizers, and really listened to what my ideal final results were ( as opposed to telling me like some others!) I felt comfortable with Dr. Gordon personally and just generally having a woman in control of my breast size fate. And they are perfect!! My new breasts look almost identical to the great natural ones I had at 22; maybe just a teeny bit better!! I could not be happier. Comparing the cc's Dr. Gordon chose for me to the cc's the other docs suggested: I would have had GIANT ridiculous knockers if they had their way with me; def NOT what I was wanting. I'm sure if that is your ideal result Dr. Gordon could make you just as happy too though ;). She even spent several minutes with me the morning of my surgery and let me ramble through my expectations again and show more pictures as I was pretty nervous. She could not have been sweeter and more patient. The surgical facility was great too. Rt across the street from Restora and the staff there was awesome. Loved both my nurses. I was a little off a couple days post surgery because anesthesia always does that to me but otherwise my recovery was a cinch. Almost too easy as I found it difficult to take it easy as instructed.

Fortunately, no nipple re-positioning necessary. The implants alone were enough to fill me back out (loss of superior fullness). I got Sientra silicone implants. I think smooth round, and 210cc under the muscle

Congratulations! So happy to hear you love your results. Did you end up having a lift too? What type and size implants did you get? Thank you for sharing your story on RealSelf!
