WORTH IT$3,900

So I am excited and pleased to say I have finally decided to move toward with the surgery. I have not set a date yet because I have to clear things with my heart specialist first. So it may be about one month before I can set a date. I have always had small breast, and it does make me feel like I am less feminin because of this. I have a good amount of confidence already and I know this will only add to it. I am 24 years old 5'5 145 lb mother to one 4 year old. I have decided to go with saline breast implantes 300cc. I really enjoyed consultation I had with Ricardo Meade. He made me feel really comfortable and his staff was very helpful. This money is coming out of pocket so I did have to choose wisely. I have thought a out doing this for a couple of years now but now I am just finally fed up with padded bras and the lack of femininity I feel. I have always liked the more natural look so I want to make sure this change is noticeable but not dramatic. My cheast area is probably my least attractive part on my body and it always has been. I have had 2 heart surgeries so I have a scar left behind from my last one which was at the age of 13. I am no longer insecure about the scar but I am dissatisfied with the emptiness in my breast. Growing up with almost. every woman in my family having breast does make me want them more. I will keep you guys updated.

We are boob and heart soul sisters! I know you will do great! I had to get cardiology clearance, too. That was a stretch since I haven't been since 2007, but they sent the most recent update in my file and my PS was good with it. Private message me about anything if you want to. I did saline under the muscle at 375cc and am glad I didn't go bigger because of my scar and staples.

I might see if I can get my Ps to accept my last one as well. That would have been back in 2008 right after my so was born. When I seen your picture I froze for a minute because your scar is so similar to mine I thought it was me....lol...I will try and post pics soon so you can see what I mean.

My PS took it easily. I haven't had to go in for ages. My first surgery was when I was 9 and second at 25 years old. I was born without the pulmonary valve. They put in a pig's valve when I was 9 and took it out when I was 25...didn't replace it with anything. Then 4 years later they put in a stent where the valve should be and that's what I've had ever since. Post some before pics!

Hi, i have a scar from heart surgery and i was wondering do you think your new boobs make the scar look better or did it make any difference in your scar.

With the skin stretching, I want to say it may have lighten my scar. If anything it made my scar look better. Plus with bigger breast you hardly can focus on your scar. Lol...I will post a updated picture. It's been over a year since I have had them done.

So I have another consultation with a different doctor this Friday. A last minute decision but I think I may have gotten lucky. He is about 1300 hundred dollars cheaper, all good reviews and he works in the same facility as the first doctor I liked. Hope all goes well...oh and I finally added some pictures.

Yup! Scar looks familliar! :) Good luck with your consultation on Friday. What's the update with the cardiologist clearing you? It literally took me one hour to get my most recent report (2007) from UVA Hospital sent to my PS and all was good. May want to see if you can have it to bring with you on Friday? Either way - you're going to love this wholel journey.

i will have the doctor fax over the paper work if he will accept my last report. if not i set up an app for march 7th to see another cardiologist. im sure people are tired of hearing me talk about boobs so i cant wait to get them so i can get all this anxiousness out of my system.

I felt like everyone was tired of hearing about boobs, too! That's why this group is so great. Good luck with the documents! I'm sure it'll all work out fine. :)

Ok....today is consultation day. I really hope things go well with this doctor. I have to be there by 12:30 so I have lots of time to sit here and drive myself crazy thinking about what question I am going to ask. I have a feeling that I will be walking out with a date set for my surgery. Wish me luck!!!
