I expect a fuller bust, natural looking, eventually I do want children so I'm hoping I could breast feed.
I met with Dr. Ary Krau today, with the secretary I discussed cc's between 200-450cc's. She brought a 50cc, 250cc and 350cc I tried on the combo 250cc + 50cc, 350cc, 350cc +50cc determined all of them were not as big as I would like so she smiled and said she figured and went and brought 450cc's.
I tried all of these on with the surgical bra, honestly 450cc's feels like the right "natural" size and hopefully look.

My meeting with Dr. Krau was maybe 5 minutes? He recommended that regardless of how I scar, because my breasts are perky we should do a peri areole incision where scar is not noticeable. And then he was gone.

I have my pre-op appointment on December 2nd. And operation on December 17th. I'm wondering if I should have gone for 500cc's? To hopefully not have "boob greed". I will keep you posted. I have attached what I imagine I'll look like and what I want my breasts to look like.

Wow! He quoted me $8,500 in Bal a Harbor office for revision and lift. $3,500 is cheaper than my first surgery-Geez:(

Maybe revisions and lifts are more expensive?
This is something at the CG Cosmetics clinic. I've heard that at the personal offices Surgeons charge more. Probably because they own it and it's their personal business in that case. I don't know though.

I just got word from my friends ex-wife that the surgeons charge more in their personal office than in the subsidiary offices.
She referenced them as "chop shops" however, the one I'm going too doesn't have a bad reputation.

ALWAYS DO EXTENSIVE homework on the doctors and clinics.

@onthebeach and @j in Florida I decided to keep the 450 cc's considering I'm only 5'2 and my butt is also big. I don't want to end up looking fat because I have to buy clothes to accommodate my boobies. I greatly appreciate you both for your insight

Omg. Thanks for the heads up!

Keep in mind he will use mod plus (unless 500cc or more) and Mentor which out of all implants give most natural look, but to me too wide and flat and little projection compared to their competitor-Allergan Natrelle. Id go as big as you can to not regret and high profile. If you don't you'll be upset. Lots of high profile look natural and offer more projection. Are you doing silicone or saline?

Good evening ladies.

I had surgery today at 11am. By 11:45am Dr. Krau came in for a final review. He decided to do the implant through the Breast crease (under the boob) rather than through the nipple.  I wasn't too bummed out, because now he wouldn't need to cut through the Mamet ducts and there's a likely chance I can breastfeed later.  The reasons he provided were that I had a lot of breast tissue and it would be best in his opinion to go through the breast crease. He also stated there's less of a risk of capsular contracture, have you all heard of that being true? Over all, I am fairly pale, my breasts rarely see the sun and the times I have scarred their appearance is minimal. So let's see that the scarring looks like once I go to my follow up on Monday.  I plan, when granted the clearance, to massage them (despite the discomfort) and when I massage them, to do it with vitamin E oil and LOTS of shea butter etc.  SO how do I feel? Fine. If you all work out, this feels like I over did it on chest workouts and now I'm sore. The percocets help, I am constantly in and out of sleep. I'm super dehydrated from last nights fast, while in the office my body went through 2 IV bags.

Massages?

When can I start massaging my breasts? They're so sore! I'm afraid to touch them because I don't want to mees with their placement.
I am terrified of them bottoming out.
