I have been wanting breast implants since I was 17...

WORTH IT
i have been wanting breast implants since I was 17 and realized I would never naturally have a chest that I was confident about. Clothes hang on me, if I'm wearing a bikini and I lift my arms, the top will just slide up to my neck. I never had the money, though. Now I'm older, I DO have the money, and I love WHO I am, and am really excited none-the-less to get breast implants.
I live in Central Alberta, and had originally wanted to go down to the USA to get the procedure done by a renowned surgeon, but the currency exchange is pretty ridiculous, add in travel cost and a hotel etc... It just seemed like it was too much. I have been searching a realself NIGHTLY for a surgeon in Canada, hopefully for one close to me, who's style goes with what I'm looking for. The Victoria Beckham look terrifies me! I just called today and left a message with Dr. Jonathan Lee in Calgary, who I've had my eye on- I've seen a BIT of his work and I'm impressed and have a good feeling about him. That's the main thing, I trust my intuition, and I feel a relaxed, safe feeling about him. In my mind, I know my boobs are going to look like they are now, just bigger, and I can't REALLY compare to anyone else realistically. My expectations are to be a C or D, high profile, gummy bear silicone gel, under the muscle, inframmary incision under the breast.

I'm just curious...not trying to be rude. But why did you choose gummy bear?

I'm pretty slim, and my dr said that without a lot of (tissue/skin/ whatever term he used) you can see a rippling from the saline. Gummy bear doesn't ripple, so my lack of tissue= smooth smooth smooth

I look a lot like your before. Don't want to feel too intrusive. Are you happy with the size? I sort of know what size I want but not sure still about shape. Definitely I will go under the muscle though

You are tall so u can pull off the size but I know I couldn't. Just curious about cup size and if they turned out bigger/smaller than u hoped

My thoughts before were 'I'm gonna be way too big!' But now, even though I went the biggest suggested, I still wish they were bigger-BUT I'm ridiculously happy with them. I don't know if I'd change it if it came right down to it. Under the muscle you'll lose a lot of the sizing. I'm wearing a 36D.
If I could say anything, I'd tell you that Ultra High Profile has given me a great tit shape- moderate I don't think I'd have been as happy, I'm so small that I show the shape. I didn't have a lot of tissue to start with. And I'd say, go bigger. Find the size you like, and then go one up from it.

Sizing, Ankylosing Spondylitis

my biggest 'issue' with having plastic surgery would be my genetic spinal disease. Misdiagnosed for over ten years, a specialist who did every possible test imaginable discovered with a genetic marker blood test that I absolutely have AS. For the past 2 years I took 500mg Naproxen, and only this month started Humira which has me feeling like the tin man turned ballerina. My specialist told me there is absolutely no worry for me to get plastic surgery, and Dr.Lee said I'll just need to be off Humira so my body can heal properly, also, the naproxen gone for at least two weeks- which is no problem because I've been off it a month. Anyways, I couldn't find a sing,e thing about AS and plastic surgery, so thought I should mention that.
Anyways, I met Dr. Jonathan Lee today. I'm out of town, so Nikki (assistant) emailed me forms I fill out right from my iPad and hit send- just stuff about my height and weight etc- go in today, a girl has me stand to the left and the right and move my arms back and up while she took photos.
I was impressed I actually MET in the flesh Dr. Lee. I'd remembered today that a few years ago I had seen Dr. Hall Findlay in Banff but never actually met her. I paid to have a consult and only saw the assistant. I didn't like that. So actually meeting him, feeling his energy, shaking his hand- it really helped ease feelings over right/wrong. How would I describe the feeling of his energy? Cool and calm. He was realistic over what could happen. My nipples are slightly on different levels, which will show, and I should be prepared for that.
Besides another girls review on here, and her pictures (thank goodness) I'm totally in the dark over what his style is. That is cause for hesitation. However, the other girls review is EXACTLY how I want mine to look and her boobs are nearly identical to mine. Would you get breast implants without having seen a few before & after photos?
As for sizing, I liked the 370, but I'm sure after a few months I'd regret 370 and wished I'd gone a bit bigger, which leaves me with the other sizing I juggled with, 385.
It's all a lot to consider and decide.
It FEELS right.
