I have been wanting a BA since I found out they...
WORTH IT$9,150
I have been wanting a BA since I found out they existed, but haven't really been in the position ($$$!) to consider going through with it, until NOW! Words cannot express how giddy I am about all of this so far, and I haven't even had my first consult yet :-p I am probably currently 32AA or 34A but have never been properly measured due to embarrassment and the fact that I basically use bras for prosthetic breasts at this point...sadface.
After years of research (definitely more in-depth lately, vs just wishing!) I am putting my trust in Dr. David Kim in Beverly Hills and hope I feel as confident in my decision after our consultation (6/25/14)
Based on my stats (will need to determine breast width, etc with Dr) I am thinking silicone implants, submuscular, 350-400ccs. I am trying to avoid arbitrary cup sizes but would LOVE to be a C/D when all is said and done. I want to have large breasts, but it is more important to me that they fit my frame and look natural, so I will take my PS's advice in that regard.
My consult is still a month away, so I may not have any updates until then. For now I will leave you with some "before" pics of myself and wish pics I've gathered from lurking on Realself!

Hi, have you thought about "high-profile" position? A really nice look.
What incision type?
June 1, 2014
I don't think I can be sure on profile/incision until I have my consult, but from what I've read, I'm currently thinking inframammary incision and high profile.

Prior to your desicion will you check susan kolb, M.D. . She has a business in Atlanta, georgia and has had both types of implants. She has a book out called the naked truth about breast implants. Please do your research on the cons and not just the pros regarding this desicion. $ can buy boobs but it cant buy your health. Im speaking from experience. I had saline implants 2/2010 and removed due to saline implants related health issues 1/2013. My symptoms have since improved alot. Good luck.

Sorry to hear of your complications, I am in California and planning on silicone implants.

Saline are known as the "safe" implants. Saline implants have Silicon shell. Research, that's all im saying. Thanks

After reading stuff by her (online, I've never read her book) I went to the website of Dr. Kolb's practice. I find it intriguing that she's so "against" breast implants (in her articles) but still performs them at her practice. If she TRULY feels that "breast implant disease" (which isn't an actual recognized dx by the way) is a major issue and still chooses to place them in patients, then she is violating the "I will prevent disease whenever I can, for prevention is preferable to cure" line of the Hippocratic oath that she took. Since she still puts implants in patients at her practice, I think she's more of a greedy looney toon. You can take ANY procedure (tonsillectomy, wisdom teeth removal, to name a few where I know conflicting stories off the top of my head) and find people who have had a bad experience with it, and still thousands more who didn't.

Dr. Kim is amazing!!! I'm 10 days post-op from my breast augmentation with him and I can't believe how good they look! I started out pretty much flat and now I'm probably a mid-C. I LOVE my results. Check out my profile for my experience with him. Good luck with everything!

You look awesome!!! It helps solidify my decision thus far...I just loved his work and the consistency of his before & after photos. Thank you so much for sharing your experience and the support!

A big thank you
To all the ladies on here who have shared their experiences and helped me to open up about my decision. I am lucky enough to have a wonderful mom and fiance to help me along the way, but your posts have truly lifted my spirit!
