Hello ladies,
I have been reading, reading and reading everything I can get my hands on regarding a breast lift with implants. The information and support that everyone has shown to each other on RealSelf is just great and I wanted to share my story.

I am a 35 year old mother of 2 little girls. I am 5 feet 6 inches tall and weigh 133 pounds. I currently wear a 32 DD bra and do not want to go bigger. They are a pretty deflated DD let me tell you! I am now dreaming of perky lovies! I am interested in getting a lift with implants.

We live in Thailand currently while my husband builds his business. We are originally from Seattle, Washington.

My husband and I would always joke about getting my "boobs done" when we were all finished having children. Last October I finished breast feeding my youngest and let me tell you- my breasts have never been the same since. Hence the seed was sown and I have been a lady on a mission ever since!

Living in Thailand has many benefits, but a major one is the cost of cosmetic surgery and dental work. Not only can I get it done here by a skilled surgeon, but I can also save a lot of money too.

I have 3 consultations lined up next week. I will let you all know about the different doctors, my thoughts and ultimately my final decision.

Cost

Well, it has been a few days and my consultation appointments are all lined up for next week. I have been quoted from $3600 USD to $7500.00 USD. That is quite a price difference! Both doctors use the same product and both have great reviews. The less expensive doctor has his own practice, in his own building and does his surgery there. The other does his work out of the premer hospital in Bangkok. I am waiting to make my decision after I meet them both- but a $4000.00 price differnece- that
s pretty big. What do you ladies think?

Thank you for starting your journey on RealSelf. Here are some important questions to ask your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon during your consults. If things don't work out for you in Thailand, is there any chance you'll be visiting home? There are some great doctors in Seattle if you need them. Be sure to share wish boob photos with your doctor to make sure you're both on the same page regarding your final result. Good luck and keep us posted!

I had my first consultation today

Took myself off to meet Dr. Pichet in Bangkok Thailand. He is the first of my consultations. So far he has had excellent communication and his staff have been extremely nice. He runs his own practice in Bangkok so I went to his office for the meeting. The office seemed very clean. He also is the least expensive of the Dr.s I have lined up. By about $4000.00 dollars! Doing the surgery out of his hospital is much cheaper then going with a big hospital here.
When I was trying to get to the office I got lost, called the clinic and they sent a car to pick me up. I thought that was very nice because it turned out I was very far from the clinic.
When I arrived they took me upstairs and had me fill out a small questionnaire. They then asked me to remove my shirt for some photos. I am a shy person so that was a little embarrassing for me but I got over it! Then Dr. Pichet came in and we had a little chat. He had me try on implant sizes- we decided to go with 260cc silicon under muscle. I have 32dd breasts now and don't really want to go bigger, just fuller on top. Do you guys think this is big enough?
We then talked about the lift. He thought a donut lift would be fine but I expressed my wish to have my boobs lifted up up and away and that I wanted something that would last a long while. It should be interesting to hear what the next Dr. has to recommend for me. Overall, I liked the clinic, staff and the Dr. He priced me out at $3600.00 US dollars for the lift and implants.

I had a TON of natural breast tissue. So my ps erred on the side of caution bc my biggest fear was going too big. But the lift really does reduce the appearance of your size. So hindsight I should have went up a notch.
