WORTH IT$3,400
I went to 3 consultations before deciding to go with Dr.Colgrove in the Atlanta/Vinings area. I felt that he had the most reviews and experience. I also loved his previous work and I was most comfortable in his office. I have decided to go between 350-375 ccs. I am getting the saline implants. My measurements are 5’7 130 pounds. I am currently a 34A and I desire to be a full C. Tomorrow, I am going to my pre op appointment to make my final decisions. My fear is being too big, however I don’t want to not go Big enough.

Pre op appointment

Today was my pre op appointment I decided on 375 cc mod plus. I don’t know if I mentioned before but I am getting lipo suction on my left breast because it is much bigger. My surgery is next Thursday October 5th at 12:30 with Dr.Colgrove. Today’s appointment was fun because I got to look at a lot of pictures of boobs and decide on what was too big, too small, and what was good. It was a tough decision. I went and got all of my prescriptions filled today and I am excited for next week. Here are my projected pictures of what I might look like.

I hope you love your results and give an update! I am hoping to schedule with him for Oct 26! I had a consultation with him last week,and have another with a different doctor this Tuesday so hoping to lock him in after that! I liked the 375, 400, and 450 ccs HP silicone but like you am worried about being too big but also not big enough...

Thank you! I hope so too. Dr.Colgrove seems amazing from what everybody is saying. The nurse told me to keep in mind that after swelling goes down you lose about 25 ccs. So I loved how 350 cc looked so I decide on 375 to accomplish it

Yes exactly all his reviews and before and afters are great! He could be more personable but that is just his personality. I also asked about how much would be lost once they settle and going under the muscle as opposed to over as well so lol probably decide on 400 but of course I want to try on sizes again

Day of treatment
Surgery day

So today was surgery day. I arrived at the surgery place at 12:30. One of my complaints was the wait time. It took about 1 hour for me to be called to the back. From there, I took pre op pictures and changed into two ropes, surgical panties & socks. I made sure to wear my glasses to surgery, I typically wear contacts. After my pictures, I had to wait about another hour for them to come & talk to me about my surgery. Then, 15 minutes later the surgeon case in and marked me. After, I had to wait 45 minutes for the anesthesiologist to come and talk to me about what she was going to do. By now it was 2:30 and I was becoming very anxious and hungry, since I hadn’t eaten since 9 the previous night. Finally, I went back for my final picture with my markings, and then to the surgery room were me and mom departed ):. They laid me down & started my IV which wasn’t bad at all. I don’t remember falling asleep but when I woke up I remember filling a very aching pain and a lot of pressure on my chest. My mom said coming out of recovery I looked dead & very sad due to my pain. When I got home I ate soup & crackers & drank water. I can not see my results until tomorrow or Saturday since I am bandaged. I was propped up but I am now laying on my back and I feel fine for just having had surgery.
