Well ladies, after combing through 100's of your reviews I have gained the confidence necessary to book my surgery! On 3/16/16 I will be getting 475cc-500cc's high profile Natrelle Silicone implants. Needless to say, the anxiety and excitement has immediately kicked in... Eek!
I wanted to start a review so that maybe my pictures will provide hope to all of you ladies out there with constricted and tuberous breasts. I had a few different consults with top-notch surgeons and they all seemed to have a different opinion about how they would correct my breasts. All admitted that a lift would do me best, but because I haven't had my children yet it would be best to wait for it. Some said that I should have a small implant no more than 365cc's that way my boobs didn't ride high or look unnatural. I ultimate chose the surgeon that was the most detailed with his approach and super optimistic!
I have always wanted full, natural breasts (full C to full D) that match the size of my hips and booty! I am currently a 34B but can easily fit into a 34A because of my breasts' weird shape. The surgeon has recommended the following items during my augmentation:
1) Enter through IMF
2) Release chest muscle through Dual Plane Approach level II or III
3) Make radial cuts to release constriction bands herniating breast tissue
4) 475cc high profile Natrelle silicone implants under the muscle
5) Allow the implant to stretch out the newly released constricted tissue
So sorry for this super long review, just wanted to share the specifics!
You have all helped me so much with your thorough information. Now it's time to start preparing for my big day! Any and all tips, advice, and well wishes for surgery and recovery are lovingly accepted. ????

Good luck, I had tuberous breasts as well! Hopefully everything goes well with you :) I didn't have a lift or areola reconstruction at all so I'm anxious to see my results in a few months time!
March 2, 2016
I'm so happy you commented! I am excited to follow your progress. :)
It's so hard to find women with our shape and tuberous breasts. I'm so excited but also nervous that they'll look worse! I know that's probably unrealistic though.
March 2, 2016
I was in the exact same position. I was terrified they'd look the same, only bigger. I honestly have rarely looked at my breasts without a bra since surgery, only because I know that they still need to drop and fluff, and I don't want to get upset before anything is actually settled.

Pre-Op is TODAY! Still unsure about size.
SoutherngallifestyleMarch 3, 2016
Hello beautiful ladies! I'm so excited because my pre-op is this morning and we get to finalize my surgery plan! I haven't really prepared for this appointment other than save a few pictures of breasts that I like. I want big and natural like 90% of the women here.
My main concern is having tuberous breasts and the "double bubble" effect. Im also concerned that if I go too big, they will sit on my clavicle. I really, REALLY don't want too much boob for my chest!
I originally chose 475 cc in my right breast and 450 cc in my left. Hoping that's not too much for my frame (one surgeon said it might be). I plan on posting another review when pre-op. :)

Good luck picking the size is so stressful I can totally relate... We have the same surgery date! Wishing both of us awesome [RS bleep] and a speedy recovery! Are you going under or over the muscle?
March 16, 2016
Can't believe all 3 of us have the same surgery date lovely! please do keep in touch excited4newboobs xxxx
March 11, 2016
I'm STILL stressing the size! On one hand I'm afraid they'll be too small and on another I'm afraid they'll make me look heavy. There is truly no telling. :/
I'm going under the muscle and Dr. Weiler is using the dual plane approach. Are you getting excited? Hoping a speedy recovery for you as well! I'm definitely going to be keeping up with your progress. :)
March 16, 2016
I hear you chicky!! i feel the same way!! i'm going with 400cc Moderate profile and feeling the same way!! will it be too small? should I go bigger? decisions!
March 16, 2016
I ended up going with 450 CC's in one and 475 CC's in the other. Not sure if the size is perfect yet but what I did was I told my surgeon to use his discretion and use whatever he thought was best. I really trusted that and now I'm excited it's over!

TOMORROW is the day!
SoutherngallifestyleMarch 16, 2016
Well gals, this is it! Tomorrow is the surgery day and I couldn't be more ready to get the hard part over with! I'm so surprised that I've made this decision after all of these years of debating and dreaming. I'm a procrastinator by nature so I'm still going through the list of everything I'll need to prepare for tomorrow:
1) Prescriptions and antibacterial wash - check! 2) Crackers, ginger ale, and little kid foods to take with pain meds - check!
3) Comfy station to sleep my newly boobed pain away - check!
4) Sanity and anxiety - double check!
Thank you to all of the ladies who have inspired me to make this decision and move forward with a more balanced self. I've always feared these tiny, tuberous boobs and now I'm ready to take the leap! I'm proud of all of you for putting your stories out there. I will keep everyone updated on how tomorrow goes, wish me luck!

I wish you the best of luck! There are no words that can describe the discomfort and potential anxiety you'll feel afterwards, but I can tell you from very recent experience that it fades faster than you may think. Speaking for many of us women with tuberous breasts, I can say, Good for YOU for taking the plunge! You won't regret it.
March 16, 2016
Thank you SO much!!! I do worry about the anxiety as I am already anxiety-ridden. This is a huge step for me and surprisingly I'm doing well so far. Thanks so much for encouraging me on how fast it should go away! Im really hoping for that. I have followed your recovery and it has inspired me so much!
March 16, 2016
Goodluck tomorrow seems like your pretty well prepared! I'm super excited for both of us!! Hopefully we can get some rest before the big day!!!
March 16, 2016
T minus 2 hours... Ahh!!! Hope you have slept well too! I've had all kinds of crazy dreams about the surgery last night, lol! Good luck doll and I'll see you on the other side!
March 16, 2016

March 16, 2016
Hey ladies! I'm in boob land and feeling better than expected! Posting an update now :)
-Arnica Montana herbal supplement tablets (helps with bruising and swelling)
-Cocoa Butter
-Bio Oil
-Detox tea from amazon to help with bloating and constipation from pain meds
-Ice Packs or frozen veggies
-Bendy Straws
-Anti bacterial soap
-Baby wipes and/or make up removal wipes
-Button up/zip shirt and sweaters
-Comfortable pants
-Easy slip on dresses/button up dresses
-Gatorade
-Bedside Caddy to hold cell phone, chapstick, remote, kindle or tablet, tissues, protein bar etc...
-Pack of waters (I dont know how easy it will be to fill my water from the fridge the 1st few days)
-Cheap Front closure bra to sleep in (I went to TJ max and picked some cheap front closure bras up, I am not sure what size I will be so I bought a medium and large and kept the receipt just in case one does not fit.
-Slippers
-I also bought a brilliant contours bra, which I highly recommend. Its on the pricey side and my surgeon told me not to spend too much money on a post opt bra abut I found this company and they have really good reviews. They make bras for breast augmentations. they also have great customer service, i ordered a medium and it felt like it was going to be to big, so I let them know i want to exchange it for a small. She sent me a small the very next day and told me to keep the medium as well because she wasn't sure which one would fit me best after the surgery and she didn't want me to not have a bra to recover in. I highly recommend checking them out. Sorry if this is so long...
So far this is the list i came up with I will probably come up with more and will end up over prepared lol. Let me know if you think of anything!
