WORTH IT
After breast-feeding three babies and losing 40 pounds, my naturally given perky A cup had disappeared completely and left me with nothing but shriveled up nipples on my chest. I spent many years compensating by using gel inserts, and extremely padded/water bras. This worked on the exterior, but at the end of every day when I undressed, I also took off my breasts! This always left me feeling a little bummed, as I was so pleased with my body in every other area. I never wore a bathing suit in public because of my flatness.
I began researching breast implants and, being very natural in my approach to health and life in general, I was conflicted by the many negative things I read on the internet about breast augmentation. I really struggled with this because I also really wanted beautiful breasts. I went back and forth for many years in my thoughts about augmentation. Finally, in September of 2015, I decided to at least make an appointment for a consult with Dr. Chapin, referred to me by a co-worker who was very pleased with his work. Thought I would at least discuss my major concerns with a professional, knowing that a free consult was just a free consult. No obligation.
The staff and whole atmosphere at Chapin Aesthetics was so welcoming and soothing to my anxious state. Just the consult was major for me! After addressing my concerns with Dr. Chapin, he reassured me that my anxieties were for naught, and that I was a good candidate for surgery. He showed me actual pictures of what I could expect to look like after augmentation. They were the breasts I always wanted. I thought they were so beautiful! I then tried the sizing inserts that gave me a very real idea of what my breasts could actually look like. I went home and gave more thought to it for a week or two, asking myself the same two questions "Do I trust Dr. Chapin or do I not trust Dr. Chapin?" I decided to just relax and trust Dr. Chapin's professional expertise, as he has excellent credentials, in addition to striking me as a very genuine and nice person. Then I went for it!!! I scheduled my surgery for three weeks out on October 1st. It is now October 17th and I am so pleased with my decision!! Every day my breasts look better and better. I am truly thrilled at this point and it's still getting better!
Recovery was definitely uncomfortable the first few days, but meds helped a lot and each day gets better. I went back to work on day six post-op, but just took it a little easier and rest when I get home and on the weekends.
I have not yet posted my pics but will do so soon!
