Pulled the trigger and scheduled my surgery for a breast lift with augmentation. I have been debating for the longest time, but after meeting with the PS For consultation I decided I am going for it. I now spend inordinate amounts of time looking at before and afters. And reading risks. 11/11 can't get here soon enough!

Typo!!! Dr Saunders doesn't want patients to be UNREALISTIC! He wants us to know the reality of what we can achieve.

I suggest you go for it. Keeping in mind each what your expectations are. Go for it like you said. Read and absorb as much information as you can about your procedure(s). Please follow your doctors order that will help you recover even faster. My doctor told me " use your recuperating time to pamper yourself" another thing I believe that helped speed up my healing process was that my doctor had me take zinc and Vitamin C starting a week before my procedure and a week after. I must say though that I continued it for a full month. So I wish you all the best and a speedy recovery.

Had my pre op appointment and selected my implants. Going with 450cc . Dr Saunders is so thorough and has great discussions to help me make my decision. I did my homework and came with pictures. He answered all my questions about the complications I read about and alleviated my anxiety. I haven't had surgery yet... but dr is awesome so far!!

How big is too big?

So I met with the PS and we selected 450cc silicone under the muscle - now I am wondering if I should go with 500ccs. The 450 (or500) will go in my right breast and a smaller implant in the left to even out the asymmetry. (It always bothered me but now it drive me bananas) I have my two different 'dream boobs' and I'm just not sure which would be a better choice. Either would be awesome - I just don't want to go 'darn shoulda gone bigger' BUT don't want to think 'omg should have gone smaller' either! Oh the decisions!! Tomorrow is 29 days to go. Like a kid at thanksgiving waiting for Christmas !
