I'm 5'11" and 125 lbs. breastfed 2 children, I'm a flat and deflated size A cup but grew to a DD when breastfeeding. I'm hoping to gain a voluptuous chest to match my hips. I LOVED my body and finally felt like a real woman and mother when I saw my breasts grow with my pregnancies. Everyone's reviews on here have been so helpful. I'm scheduling a consultation soon with Dr. Firouz in Beverly Hills, hoping to get my BA done in the spring. I'll
keep everybody updated :)

Good luck! What size are you getting?

I'm not sure. Based on my height and my skin already being stretched from breastfeeding, I feel like 425-500cc would give me the look I want. It's HUGE on shorter women, but looks like someone my height can pull off without appearing overdone and fake. I really need to just book a consultation and get it figured out!

I would go with the 500's. I have 505 textured high profile and wished that I went with the 565. But they still look extremely natural and don't look fake at all. I'm really tall too at 5'10 so I feel that I went with the right style and size. I would not want to go any bigger than 565. Book a consult and have fun!!! Look and find tons of photos of ones you want and ones you don't want. Good luck with everything!

Good advice, thanks! It's so tricky to find women the same height and dimensions as I am for comparison.

I love the 500cc at times I wish I would have gone with 550. However I am at a DD. If I would have gone bigger it would have it me At DDD possibly an E. and that would have pissed me off. Way to big for MY Book.

I'm looking around to find a doctor to have a consult with. Most that I land on are priced for $6500-$9500 for a breast augmentation. For silicon implants at the cosmetic surgery care center they're priced at $5000-$5500... Not many reviews, but positives ones from what I have read online... I'm weary about paying less and getting a lesser than great job done. But if the doctors I'm looking up are priced so high, then is that just due to the fact that they're based in Beverly Hills?

Has anybody gotten their BA done at the cosmetic surgery care center in beverly hills? What was your experience? Worth it, or not worth it?

Have you found your PS?

I'm mostly sold on a surgeon, Dr Costanzo, but I'm just taking forever to even go in for a consultation. I think I'm afraid of the roller coaster ride of really doing all of this. I had a great conversation with his office and then I just froze up. I think I'm terrified of losing nipple sensation.

My mom had worked with my PS a few years ago. So, I was sold on mine instantly. I have great sensation in my nipples. My PS would not go through my nipples since I was going with a big silicone implant. She went through the fold which I think is perfect. You can't even see it. It's literally in the fold.

I've read stories about nerves being cut while going through the fold and it effects their nipples still? Even if its rare, I just feel like that would be my poor luck haha. But hearing how great you feel really helps me get over my fears! Thx!

I booked a consultation appointment with Dr. Costanzo for March 20th... very excited!! I haven't been turned off by his office from any sources and have had my eye on him for a while. So I'm posting some pics of myself now before my hopefully soon to be surgery.

You're tall, but have a small frame. Please don't get bigger than a B, otherwise, you will bottom-out! It looks like your frame won't be able to support anything bigger than that.

I agree! I don't want to be top heavy either! All I wanted was large breasts, but now that my surgery date is in a couple days I'm getting more real with myself about what actually fits my body AND personality.

I am tall and skinny with 500cc and they look perfect on me. Not top heavy. If a B is all you want I understand. B is only one size bigger then what you are now. To spend that much money for one size seems like a waist.
