This is my first post on RealSelf... I actually just stumbled onto this site while doing BA research... and I'm so glad I did!
I had a breast augmentation when I was almost 18. My boobs were small for my frame, and uneven, and were a huge reason for my self confidence, or rather, lack thereof. I had a my procedure done in Kelowna, BC, saline under the muscle. My experience was fine, surgery-wise, but looking back, I had no idea what I would be in for... in a good way! My self confidence actually blossomed, and I felt beautiful and not abnormal. I'm sure I have the information somewhere, but being so young I didn't really keep track of what brand, CC's, etc... so hopefully my consultation will go ok.
After breastfeeding two children and gaining and losing baby weight, my once bright headlights have dimmed. I am wanting them to shine again. I'm not sure if I will need a lift on one side (the side that was initally bigger, also both babies favoured) or just bigger implants. I do know that I want to go a full cup size bigger... maybe more. I'm hovering around a C or D, but I want a full D or even a DD for my frame. Even at my post-op 13 years ago, I had wanted to be bigger, but didn't want to overdo it with my age, etc.
I am looking into Hospital Angeles Tijuana, and have heard wonderful things, but honestly not sure about the costs with travel, etc. Also recovery abroad... I'm not the best invalid, lol. My other choice by extensive research is MacLeod Plastic Surgery. I have contacted both and will further explore my options.
Another quick thing... I had found a lump in my left breast a month go, and got that obviously checked out right away. It turned out to be a benign (non-cancerous) fibriod tumor. I was given the option to leave it be or get it taken out, I have chosen it to be taken out. Although it turned out to be nothing, it was a scary experience and I don't want that in my breast. So I'm not sure if I'll be able to move forward with my implant exchange/augmentation until that is out... we'll see.
I'll pop back on and chat again... if anyone had made it this far through my novel of rambling... thanks for reading!

I haven't written my own stuff in awhile, but I have been lurking, lol!
I have decided to get my lift/BA here in Calgary... I figured the peace of mind and being at home was worth the extra costs, rather than travelling... then again, our $$ is crap, so it really wouldn't be much of a saving anyway!
My place of employment was scheduled to be down for renovations in January 2016, but from the sounds of it, they're going to stretch that out until the summertime... I'm planning my surgery when the store is down, simply from a time off perspective. Also, it will be less obvious when I return, not that I'm incredibly shy, but I don't need EVERYONE knowing about my business.
I don't have any pics of my sad, sad boobies right now, but I can take them and upload them later (when my kids aren't running around, lol). For the meantime, here are some wish boobies! :)
