I kinda did this whole thing a little backwards in regards to my pre & post - op post. Lol! I'm 39 years old, 5'5, 137lbs, with three gorgeous kiddos. I felt my breast were always a fairly good size, but three kids, breastfeeding & many years in between gravity took over. My hubby and I threw around the idea of a lift with implants over the years, but never really settled on doing it until earlier this year.

The last three years we have made it our business to eat better, workout more and maintain a health weight. To encourage each other my hubby & I workout 4 -6 times a week and playfully compete. We thought this would be a good time to go for it! We started looking for a PS in the NY and FL areas. Researching our dream boobs and how many CC's, etc. After several consultations in person and via email we decided to go with Dr Ary Karu with CG Cosmetics. I've read nothing but great things about my PS and was excited to book with him.

This process happened so fast. Within 4 1/2 weeks, I paid a deposit to book my surgery date, brought plane tickets and reserve our hotel room. Two weeks later paid the balance in full and the very next week on 19 May we were on our way to FL.

I finally met my surgery corrdinator during my pre-op visit, tried on a few sizes and signed a bunch of paper work. On the evening of 20 May I arrived for my surgery time and had the pleasure of meeting Dr Krau. He is soooo talented, patient and attentive. After looking at a picture of my dream boobs and marking me up he performed a lollipop lift with 600 cc's.

This is only day 2 with my new gurls and my husband and I both are very excited. They look great! He has been doing a wonderful job taking care of me, making sure I take my meds & staying hydrated. The process has been nearly perfect.

I will follow up in few days with pre & post - op pictures. I've been following realself for months and I sincerely appreciate you all for sharing your stories and pictures.

Take care.

Hi @damarys_latina! Thank you. I posted a few pictures today before & after and of my dream boobs. I would certainly recommend CG Cosmetics. The office is clean and the staff are very nice. I personally would have appreciated more communication from my surgery coordinator since I was coming from out of town. I felt she could have been a bit more proactive. Other than that, my experience from the flights, hotel, staff at CG to my wonderful PS was darn near perfect!

They look beautiful!! Congratulations, I have a very similar issue and have been having trouble finding a surgeon that does this kinda work, so I'm really happy to have stumbled on your page, and Im really happy for you!- I know how hard it is to not feel confident over your breasts. Happy healing and I look forward to seeing continued progress with your pictures!! Don't leave me hanging now.. pls continue to post your progress. :)

Well Gemma82 some call Dr Karu the boob expert! I have to agree that he is extemly good at what he does. He came in on the evening of my surgery took measurements, closed his eyes to visualize, marked me all by hand. I've gone to several consultations and all of them took pic & put my information in a machine. But not Dr. Krau, he is sooo good, confident, talented and a perfectionist at what he does. His free style, along with exactly what we wanted produced my outcome. I'm very happy... Each day gets better & better. Thank you for your support. If not Dr Krau, I hope you find the right surgeon for your needs. Wishing you the absolute best!

Thanks, you are so sweet. Did you call CG and ask for him? Bc it seems his price is diff for CG vs. his private practice, (he had his own practice in Ball Harbour, FYI if you didn't know) he seems to charge more than CG. I'm trying to reach him at CG w no luck.. I might have to go through his private practice and spend way more. Your boobs though, they're amazing!!!
