Breast Implants and Nipple Reconstruction at 18 Years Old. Dallas, TX

I had always been obsessed with boobs from the time I was a little girl, I used to walk around with socks and water balloons in my shirt literally from the time I was 4. Which I'm sure mortified my dad lol. I couldn't wait to have boobs but...they never came :( I was always a late bloomer, so I assumed they would eventually get bigger but they never even got to a B cup. I've always been tall, athletically build, so me not having boobs made me feel like something was weird. I was super insecure about them, not to mention, one of my boobs never fully developed so it almost pointed downward like it was developing then stopped before it was done. I begged my mom for years and finally convinced her when I was 18 she would go to a consultation with me. I researched all on my own and decided on Dr. Hackney. When we went to the consultation he pointed out things to me that I had never really noticed before, that the one that wasn't fully developed was considered a deformity and therefore I was eligible for silicon breast implants and not saline which since I was so young would've been my only option. The consultation really opened up our eyes especially my mom who now fully understood and was supportive of me getting the surgery.

After my surgery I do remember the first few days being painful because he had to make slits inside my nipple to expand it to make it appear right, so I think that's why it hurt more. I don't really remember the recovery being painful after that, in fact I had to start my lifeguarding summer job soon after which I probably wasn't supposed to do but luckily all was well. It's been almost 5 years now and I am so grateful for my boobs and my mom for allowing it and Dr. Hackney for doing such an amazing job. I wish I could have access to the before picture he took because the change is so dramatic and they look so good now. It has given me the confidence that I don't think I would have today had I not done it.



(btw they look super natural, only a full C, most people don't notice at all, I will add pictures soon)
