WORTH IT$6,700
Wow! Where do I begin. I am 35yrs old, 5’7, 140lbs, 34a, and have a wider set chest. I have been researching this breast augmentation for about 10 years now, and I have been researching my PS for about 5years. I’ve met previous patients and probably seen every before and after photos of every procedure he’s ever done that I could find. All these years and all the websites(reviews etc.) I’ve only seen two reviews that were not five stars and that wasn’t for anything he did but rather what He wouldn’t do I believe. His work speaks for itself! Aug 5th I had my consultation and it was exciting. First I wanna say how awesomely covid-cautious the office was. Upon walking in the building I was greeted in the entryway with a smile and a COVID-19 questionnaire to fill out before entering the main office area. My temperature was read and I was cleared to go and check in at front desk with Mary. All the staff are very polite, attentive and soft spoken. I was given routine paperwork to fill out which only took about 5min to complete. Within 15min I was called back by Kirstin and within five min of sitting in the very clean and cozy consulting room, Dr.Rosenberg was in to discuss my goals questions and concerns. I literally had a whole sheet of questions and concerns to which he answered all with complete candidness. I only showed him “wish-pics” of ladies He himself has treated with BA. I made sure that they were within my body’s measurements so I could expect and visualize something unrealistic. I absolutely feel as though I correctly conveyed my goals during our discussion. I explained that I love side boob and that I didn’t want them very high!(I know I’m picky). Dr. Rosenberg understood me and he definitely should as this surly wasn’t his first rodeo.lol
I was then given a little privacy along with a very pretty cozy cotton-fabric(not paper) robe so I could remove my tops for assessment of breast’s and measurements but still have the security of coverage for the in between moments. So right after measurements we started to try on different implants in the mirror. This is where I got really nervous for some reason. I’m grateful for his lovely assistant Kirstin as well as she is sweet. She helped me into a very comfortable soft garment sizer bra that along with the robe I get to keep for after surgery!(I love that!). We then began the fun part..the part I was prepared for right?!? You know, trying on the implants. I was gonna see myself as I always wanted. I had positions and poses I was planning on doing to see me in all angles and different clothing! Well all that went out the window.lol I was soooo nervous y’all and extremely embarrassed about my flat chest. So much that I was rushing through the whole process. I didn’t do anything I planned on. I would like put an implant in look in mirror for two seconds and go “sure”.lol! I had never seen breasts on me before so I was happy to see any enhancement at the moment! I felt like I was stuffing my bra in front of someone and I forgot to do any of the positions or movements I planned to do to see how I look during different situations ya know lol. I was too shy to do that in front of staff. So I stopped at 510cc, but I already know I want bigger. I have a very flat chest and wide-set cleavage area and I’m going under the muscle so I think I need a little more to achieve the look I want! Why did I get soo nervous guys? I’m not usually like that. I want to do the sizers again to be completely sure! I know cup size pretty much varies and is usually irrelevant in implants but if I were to say a size...I would say I want roughly a size DDD results!Besides my own rushing of sizers, I am very excited to go back, settle on a size with doctors approval and hopefully get surgery scheduled for next month! Best Wishes to us all! Oh yeah, aside from cc’s, PS said we’d be using;Mentor,Moderate-Plus,Silicone-Gel,Smooth-Round implant going Under the muscle with an inframammary incision. Has anyone else had this “sizer-anxiousness” where you didn’t go as high as you wanted? I’m paying good money for a great Plastic Surgeon and I just want to be happy with my size afterwards! One of my main fears aside from health risks is not going big enough! If anyone thinks I should change anything feel free to advise. Thank you -Katey

I have 500cc Mentor MemoryGel Smooth Round Mod+. I started larger than you, had plenty of excess tissue, and different anatomy. However sizing goes based off your BWD. Mod+ are wide so I believe that's why he's using that plus they give more natural results. It's like the best of both worlds, width and projection. HP are narrow so that is probably one reason he's steering away from that profile. However BA only enhances our current breasts and does not change our anatomy. There is a procedure they could perform to lessen the gap between your breasts. I had a BL/BA so my results would be slightly different because having that lift creates a youthful perky appearance. You can read my 3 ypo review done on 7/24 if you like. Listen to your PS guidance as they've done it some many times before you. Most places will let you go back to try on sizers again. I'd recommend a tight top to see the full look of the implants. Keep in mind when going behind the muscle you will lose about 10-15%. I've read on the Q&A forum that most Dr state you increase one cup per 150cc. I hope some of this has helped out. I'm not a Dr by any means but picked up a great deal of this info from reading reviews/questions on RS. Good luck and keep us posted. :-)

Thank you. Yes he said he’s bringing my pocket towards the sternum to decrease the gap, dropping the fold to my rib cage to give me the best results. I’m stoked as most surgeons aren’t experienced enough to do so comfortably during BA. I’m going larger he never told me where to stop actually that’s how I know I have wiggle room. I got shy lol. But my BWD is 12.5 or 13 or both. I wish I remembered exactly. I know my size will decrease from under muscle so I’m def still uncertain on size so I’m def going back before the 10th of September to be sure. Hopefully all ends well! Yours look great ;).

Thank you! Since I had so much extra tissue I am bigger than most 800cc girls I know. The only thing that gets worrisome is when they lower your fold your chances go up with double bubble. My BWD was 14.2

Consultation For BA- 35yrs/5’5h/140lbs/34A

Wow. So this is exciting! I recently went to my consultation appointment at the Plastic Surgery Center Of Maryland, PA. Let me start by saying the scheduling process was a breeze. It wasn’t even 2weeks from initial call date. I noticed upon arrival that they were COVID-19 cautious, which is awesome! So before you can even walk into the main building they have a whole setup right inside their separate entryway. I was met by a pleasant face behind a desk equipped with a bottle of sanitizer, a COVID questionnaire and a forehead thermometer. After I filled out the COVID questionnaire and my temp was read, I was then able to go through the second door into the waiting area. I checked in with a lovely lady at front desk for my appointment. I then waited in a lovely waiting room approximately 15min at most before I was called back. All the ladies were very beautiful and soft spoken. She took me into consulting room and just as she said, Surgeon was in about 3min later. I had a whole sheet of questions and concerns, he answered them all. I explained to him what I would like to achieve and showed my “wish pics”. All were of breast augmentations performed by He himself. I made sure to only look at women with my statistics. After some discussion about the types,shape,feel,incision and muscle placement, etc. of different breast implants. He then left the room so I could remove bra and put a comfy quilted Cotten(not paper) robe for top half assessment. The Dr. returned with his assistant and he read my measurements off to her(wish I remembered them). I was so nervous for some reason, I believe it was excitement induced! I used to get like that for presentations and incidents as such. It eventually subsided and I remembered some of my extra questions about the possibility of nipple stretching and the pectoral-deformity-animation thingy that can happen with under the muscle implants. My Surgeon made me feel confident that I conveyed my goals to him thoroughly. I even told him how I, unlike other women LOVE a little sideboob! After the taking of the measurements, the assistant and myself were left to play “boobie-dress-up”:)! I loved it! Although, because I am so insecure about myself I didn’t fully explore all of my options and do think I want one more time with the sizers before surgery just to fully be sure! I wasn’t uncomfortable by them or anything..more like embarrassed kinda, I felt like I was stuffing my bra in front of someone lol. So I really was fast with it and then also from me being so flat-chested, any cup size looked great to me at the time. I’m gonna do my own rice bags (thanks to this site;) because I kinda wish I could literally “sleep on it” lol. I wanna walk around the house and look in the mirrors while I’m doing certain movements that whilst in the the docs office I was too shy to do in front of someone(hehe). So rice bags will hopefully give me a better idea of what’s too much or what’s not enough in different outfits and such. We currently have chosen a 510cc/moderate-plus/round/silicone-gel/crease-fold incision/under the muscle. However, I hope to go just a bit larger as going under the muscle will cover a portion of my upper pole and I don’t want high sitting breast that are same size on top pole as bottom pole. I want the bottom to buckle out more than the top like the teardrop shape, but not so much as flat at the slope like with the teardrops..(I know I’m picky lol). However, I am extremely excited either way and I will gladly be updating throughout my “midlife body journey”. 
Since this is already a long post, I wanna just say lastly that I couldn’t have been more pleased with the structured environment and staff. The whole staff was so warming and welcoming, soft-spoken and attentive! Communication has NEVER been a problem with this office.  
I am interested in a few procedures actually but first is my BA! I’ve been researching this procedure since I was 18 and have been researching my Dr.for past 5years. I’ve been to consultations before with other “billboard Doctors” and truly never felt comfortable enough afterwards to actually schedule the procedure.  
I’m 35 now, 5,5/140lbs/34A. I have two children and done counting-[^~^]- 
I am getting married in June 2021 and I am ready to have some “Tata’s”;). I knew I wanted to wait till I was done developing, done having children, done breastfeeding and in shape from baby weight. I wanted to ensure the most beautiful looking results possible for me are to come. I want to be happy with my results and not pick myself apart like I’ve been warned will happen if I have problem areas still after surgery. Also, I don’t wanna be regretful I didn’t go big enough! That’s truly one of my biggest fears. So I’m finally ready! I’m in the best shape of my life (in my eyes), I’m not getting any younger and I’ve literally lived half my life flat chested. Enough is enough already! I’m going to document my entire journey on here tho! Hopefully someone can use me as a reference if you are relatively same build and want to or don’t want to achieve my look! Either way I hope this helps. Best wishes to us all!

Hi. I am 5'7" and 145. I am a medium frame (so larger than you), but I have always been large breasted. I wore a D cup in 3rd grade. Then I got pregnant with twins (one living child) and triplets (two living children). I just had 610cc round, high profile implants put in on August 6th and they are perfect for my frame. I was a very empty C cup (they looked like skin tacos. Lol. Sorry if it's TMI) and I am waiting to see my final size in a couple of months after they drop and fluff. Whatever you desire, I wish you a safe, healthy and happy journey! Good luck!

First off...You are a very amazing!! Congratulations on your journey! You are much farther along than myself, as you’re already made over..lol.:) I am thankful for your comment. I knew 510cc was nowhere near enough for my wider set chest. I am looking forward to seeing your results too. It’s soo hard to find women of our stats with over 500cc. So I just do a lot of guesswork with myself. Judging by your photos you look like you have a tiny frame..your build is perfect! And after kids, especially twins and triplets pregnancy. You have been through a lot and even in your before photos, you looked great! Body’s are a tricky thing aren’t they lol. I am going to be following your updates to see your results. I’m currently thinking of seeing what other procedure I can pair with the breast augmentation to save money and get it done at one time you know I would love a mommy makeover I just don’t know if I have that much money to spend at the moment lol my breast’s alone are $6,700..but my surgeon is worth it so I guess the trade off is applicable. Are you traveling for your surgeries or are you local to your doc? I’m ok with traveling..my fiancé is not and He’s the one paying so I guess it’s ultimately up to him. Thank you for your advice..and I enjoyed your humor.

I chimed in on your first post but I agree with your fiancé bc I never considered complications. I'm thankful my PS was just over an hour away bc I had so many spitting sutures which caused open wounds at the T junction. This is quite common but I never considered it. So keep that in mind bc other PS don't like/or want to take on another PS problem. Just food for thought.

I’m just tryna be easy on his pockets. I feel like 6,700 is a bit much.. I know it’s the average but some women go to a damn resort and get same procedures for a fraction of price. I’m always trying to cut corners tho. I’m gonna keep my surgery date. I’d loose almost 50% of deposit if I canceled now lol and that would make me more mad. So we just going to Center 5miles away lol thanks for your advice. I am positive I will have great results. I feel like I’ve done my homework like you and am ready. I love your journey and your posts I’ve actually just realized that I’ve been on a lot of your reviews before. You are very knowledgeable and your posts are very helpful. Thank you. Keep on with the keep up ;) it’s inspiring. I also want other procedures. This is just first. I’m working on my face next!! I’ll work on my stomach and butt (bbl) last;) Bye for now-Katey

You are a journalist!! You write beautiful detailed reviews. Sounds like you researched entirely on boobs ... placement, size, shape etc etc. I love the side boob look too. It's rather a sexy look with sleeveless tops/ dresses. I am looking forward to seeing your new body with an entirely new silhouette. Good luck. Keep us all posted.

Hi! I’m going for my first consultation tomorrow. I’m so excited and nervous! Maybe we could take this journey together? Either way, I’m very happy for you!

Yes! Let’s!!!
Don’t forget to try on sizers until you think it’s too big...then go with that size lol. What size are ya thinking? I’m thinking I’m gonna go with 625cc because I like the 595cc and they say I’ll lose some going under muscle(I have to) he said. I’m nervous still but I’m a anxious person so I’m sure I’m in for some serious anxiety at some point. I’ll def need some more boobie-babes like me to cry to! Good luck at your consultation! Remember we are paying them. Don’t be afraid to make them work a little;)

Playing with sizers ????(rice bags) Thoughts?

Hey friends
So I went and bought a bra just like the one my PS office gave me during my consult when trying on sizers. For some reason the one in office was more snug and felt secure. I’m pretty sure I got same size, but I wouldn’t bet on my memory with your money..lol!
So I took my nylon stocking, cut it.
I then measured out 535cc of rice and put I in the stocking, tie in knot and used the weight of a casserole dish(hehe) to flatten and widen them out. Finally placed sizers in my bra directly adjacent to the nipple like an implant normally would be. This is so much like the actual implant it’s wild. I had fun taking these photos! With that said.. I am very excited about my BA! I am also ecstatic I found this site!! I truly send out my best wishes & hopes for a speedy recovery and a positive result for us all!
