I have my surgery next Thursday with Dr Seckel in Concord. I am very excited that it's almost time! I am on birth control which I think I didn't mention to the dr the first time we met at my consultation. He said unders, gummy bear silicone , 350 cc and I agreed! I changed my mind to 400 cc though since. I see here that most women go for unders for the obvious reasons. However at my pre op he asked if I had lost weight as I was measuring a bit different. I explained that the placebo week of the BC I lose some fullness in the breast. He suggested overs as i have mild ptosis but don't fully warrant a lift or want one right now as I didn't even know I might be a candidate prior honestly. At first I was panicking about the change up but I know a couple of Dr Seckel's patients that love their results (overs but still, I trust his judgement as I'm not the surgeon). I will inquire about dual plane just to know. I am slightly worried about the cons of overs but I have a good feeling about this and I thank all the women for their honesty and sharing of their stories. I have been obsessed with this forum for weeks now! ???? wish me luck ladies and any feedback is always appreciated!

Good luck! I have my consultation with him on Wednesday and I am sooooi excited but have so many questions for him! I just want them to be perfect but from what people have said about him seems great and his work seems to be very satisfying! How long did it take for you to book your surgery after your consultation?

Good luck with your decision. It can be overwhelming.
March 16, 2015
It has been overwhelming for sure! I'm still overthinking it BC part of me wants to do overs BC im afraid they might sag in a few years as I age! I'm 34 and I don't just want to buy myself a few years... Ugh!! So much to consider! I do however have realistic expectations as I know they will be my breasts just larger.

I know a couple girls who have had theirs done by him years ago and with no issues and awesome results! His work is excellent from the women I know and all I have heard.

Side view of my mild ptosis I guess...

I feel like I have seen befores and afters of women with cases sort of similar to mine but maybe that's wishful thinking on my part that I wasn't looking at a lift if I wanted a successful under the muscle augmentation. ????

Thanks for sharing your question, and your photos! I found this is the Q&A area of the Breast Lift community. I suggest checking that out as you might find someone with a similar situation there. You might consider posting your question there as well.

I really think with the right surgeon, either placement can be equally as rewarding for different reasons! Everyone told me I would look completely unnatural with ball like boobs, but I went with my surgeon's suggestions for subfascial and I couldn't be happier! Good luck!!

I don't think you need a lift.
March 16, 2015
I had slight sagging from breastfeeding & I did not need a lift. Went with smooth round silicone mod plus 304 under & they are perfect!

You have a similar amount of deflation/ sag. Check my post & see.

Love my new breasts!!!????

So I had my surgery four days ago! I was so thoroughly impressed with Dr Seckel's patience in answering my day before questions along with Kathleen as well. They were super nice in ensuring I was informed and more important, comfortable in my decision. I def went through some unexpected nerves in the weeks leading up to my surgery. The day of the surgery, I was greeted by Dr Seckel and have to note that the care and treatment I received from every single person from nurses to anesthesiologist to Dr S himself was amazing. I felt so secure that I was in good hands! I ended up going with 350cc subglandular as the 400cc was just a tad too large to fit in me! I was so excited when I finally got a look at my new breasts the day after when they took the surgical compression bra off! i remember reading that Dr Seckel treats you like a friend in one of his reviews and I have to say it's true. He came out to update my stepfather on how surgery went and then again when I was sleeping off the anesthesia. Also, each nurse I encountered at Emerson Hospital has wonderful things to say about his work! I Had my parents take my son for 3 days for me and im feeling really good today but making sure to take it easy as my incisions are obviously still healing. I was hesitant about not doing under the muscle technique but I honestly feel in my case, it waS the right call. They feel and look fabulous! I have minor soreness off and on today but the incisions look great.

Your results look amazing!!!!!! I wish I could have gone with him but he said they were bookig into August an I can't wait that long because of going back to work! But ur results are what I wanted! They r so nice over there, goodluck!
March 24, 2015
Thank you so much!! Dr Seckel and his staff are super nice indeed! He is in pretty high demand it seems. I was really excited to get a surgery in March otherwise I would have had to wait until mid to late summer because of a wedding I'm in this summer and arranging help with child care. I'm going tomorrow for a checkup! It's crazy waking up with boobs even though it's fully expected lol! I used to be a stomach sleeper so that's an adjustment but well worth it!

They look awesome!!!
