Hey everyone! I'll get straight to the point here!...

WORTH IT$5,500

Hey everyone! I'll get straight to the point here! I am 22 and i have an athletic build: broad shoulders, hips, but no boobs! This has always been something that has lowered my self esteem. I have been considering a breast augmentation for YEARS! and finally decided why not? I'm young and nows the time i would want to live for myself and be confident. I definitely have some concerns such as am i doing this too young, will i have money for more surgeries later, will i have money for MRI's, safety, and of course regret. definitely something im the most nervous about. Currently im a 38B (with a lot of padding) so im really a 38A im sure. With this surgery I will become a 38/40 Full C/Small D. Big - but propotioned to my athletic frame.

So far I have had my consultation and pre-op. The day is coming closer and I am getting nervous! Dr. Horn and his staff are extremely nice and comfortable to be around. There was no awkwardness regarding my body or my decision. So excited!! Ill keep updating!

Hey girl! I also have an athletic build and broad shoulders. My doc put moderate profile implants in me which mean they are little more wide to fill out my rib cage. Feel free to check my pics out for ideas on size etc....Good luck!! :)

What size.did you end up going? I'm nervous I'm going too big!! Thank you for the good luck wish! Mine are also going to be wider! I'm getting 510cc in each.

I ended up with 375 silicone. I was a small 34a and now i'd say I'm close to a full C maybe small D which is perfect because even though I have curvy hips and thighs, I'm only 5'1" so it doesn't make me top heavy. It's hard though...cc's are different on everyone. Also makes a difference whether you do saline or silicone. My sister in law got saline, less cc's than I did, but her boobs are way bigger than mine! How tall are you?

I'm 5'5-5'6 with broad shoulders and good.sized hips. Getting silicone. I'm sure its a normal.worry. just scared. 510cc is too big. Now that its getting closer I've been thinking of everything that could go wrong!

I think I was in a similar boat - in the week and especially the final few days leading up to my surgery, I really wasn't so worried about the surgery itself as all the complications and things that could go completely wrong. Ultimately, I just kept reminding myself that I was comfortable with my PS and that I felt he had more than enough experience to help reduce those risks - I just needed to trust that everything would work out. Now, 2 days out, so far so good! :)

Good for you! I think my worry cones from knowing everyone's body can cause.problems and not so much my PS and not having the mula to have another surgery any time soon! Glad yours went well and I.hope I'm just as happy. I know tthese next few days I'm going plying be soooo hard on myself!

So today is exactly one week till my surgery and I'm just getting more and more nervous! I have a feeling I will be more and more hard in myself as the day draws near. And as I say hard on myself I mean worrying I'm making a mistake, going too big, capsular contracture, need for more surgeries, and especially if I'm going too big! Here's to hoping my nerves calm a bit! Getting ready though and getting everything I need.

Any advice how to calm down? Haha

Hello woman! It will look great :) Try not to worry about the big number cc's... I too have an athletic build and my PS actually went with Ultra High Profiles! She was able to match my breast diameter and give me more projection this way as well as tilt them to give a natural appearence. I thought I would need mod plus for my broad shoulders but honestly...I couldn't be more thrilled with my results!!!! If you have faith in your PS, show him/her photos of your "ideals" and trust him/her to do the figuring ;) Good luck!

tomorrow is the big day! Definitely nervous but not nearly as nervous as I have been. Drinks I have to fast starting at midnight but my surgery isn't until 3pm tomorrow! Oh well. One thing I'm nervous about is that I just got a.new job...which I have to start Wednesday. Hopefully that's enough relaxing timebefore I have to.go back to work..4 full days. Not a very active job but im I
Still nervous. Extremely tired though from.working so much lately. Off to bed I go. I will definitely update tomorrow before and after the.surgery ..how I'm feeling, etc. I can't believe this.is really happening! So excited!
