Im just beginning this process of consulting PS and already confused about breast augmentation choice! I have had 3 different consultations so far with all different opinions. First PS said I would do great with over the muscle silicone gel implants. Second PS said I would need a lift plus under the muscle saline implants. The third PS said I only needed a lift without implant. I must admit I'm in favor of the "overs" without the need for the scarring of a lift. Although, I don't want to have an additional surgery if I'm not satisfied with the results. Any thoughts.... Please help!

I'm getting a breast Aug (Bi-planar), tummy tuck & Lipo of the flanks on Aug. 18th!!! I'm so nervous and excited all at the same time! The PS suggested several different options for my breasts and I chose to do the bi-planar approach first before a lift to save me from having scars. The PS said if I'm not happy with this in the end we can do the lift which I agree. I went to 5 different PS in my area and feel most comfortable with Dr. Hedden.

You definitely need a lift or your implants are going to be sagging too

The Dr. that examined me said we can achieve a nice result with this placement. If I'm not satisfied after the surgery we can do a lift later. From the before & after pics he showed me from some of his patients with this procedure, I'd much rather try this route first!

Sorry, meaning a bi-planar breast augmentationof 350 cc's or more! This is after six different PS I consulted with. I've decided to go with Dr. Hedden in Bham, Al.

What ccs will you get? I want breast aug too, but don't want to do a lift first. My boobs are like yours, so I'm going to watch your journey and see how your results come out. Good luck though!! I hope that you get what you desire.

Great! I'm glad I can help someone else! :) The PS said to get at least 350 cc's or more to create the illusion of a lift. You can also go on their website and see patients who have had the bi-planar BA and see the difference. He was very honest with me and said some ladies might not like that result and would still want a lift. I think the result look very good and natural and I really don't want to have the scarring if possible! So... This is the first step for me to see if I'm satisfied with no lift. I'd rather try this route first though. I hope this helps you too!

Woe only 350cc and they look huge.... That's awesome I wanted 350 then looking at my nipples thought I'd need 500 to perk up these bad boys but if u got 350 and they look that good [RS bleep] I'm super confused now.... Love ur results wow

Well now u have me wondering I guess after u drop n fluff I'll have to see how they look I'm sure they are swollen right now but the size won't be much different... Please keep updating now I'm super curious it's so strange 350 can look so big on some people then 520 can look so small ugh so Confusing.... Did u get saline or silicone
August 19, 2016
Yes, I totally understand! It can be very confusing... I was already a C cup so he suggested 350cc's or more but he also said going bigger doesn't mean they are gonna lift more. He also said 350cc's would take me up 2 bra sizes to a DD which I'm very good with! I could tell he was leaning towards 350cc's without really telling me so that what I decided to go with! Yes, I'm swollen. I know they will drop and fluff so I cannot wait until that happens to get the full effect. I guess it takes several months.

Are you getting a tummy tuck also? If so, ask your PS about Exparel. It numbs the tummy for 72 hours after! It has definitely helped me!!!

I seen the pics u posted and dam mama u already have great boobs so now it's making sense... 350 filled u in I have no boobs so 350 will balloon me up hahaha thanks mama

You got it!!! Hopefully they're gonna lift them up a bit without the scars! Glad I can help a sister out! :)

After seeing over a half a dozen PS in the Birmingham area, I've decided to go with Dr. Hedden. Dr. Hedden was very pleasant, gave me several suggestions for my breast augmentation and the pro's & cons of each procedure, then let me make the decision based on the information given. I didn't feel rushed AT ALL and I really appreciated that. I decided to go with a bi-planar breast augmentation with AT LEAST 350cc's, of which he suggested with a full tummy tuck & lipo of the flanks. I'm so excited that I've made this decision and I know I picked the right surgeon. I have a pre-op apt in July, two weeks before the actual surgery and will decide on the final size and get all blood work, etc. My mom will be coming to help with our twins and take care of me also since my hubby works so much! I will keep you all posted!!!! :)

Pre- Op Appointment

I have my pre-op apt this Thursday!!! I'm super excited to see Dr. Hedden and get more information about my upcoming mommy makeover on August 18th. My husband will be coming with me this time so I know he will have a lot of questions also! I'm really going to ask about sizing for implants.. Dr. Hedden suggested 350 cc's or more with my already size full C breasts. Again, a bi-planar augmentation in order to not have lift scars. I'm pretty stoked and will post update on Thursday after my appointment! ????????
