I hit puberty at 12, grew breasts for 5 minutes, and stopped. I've never actually NEEDED a bra, and could barely fill out a 36A with silicone chicken cutlet enhancers. I consoled myself with the thought that I'd have kids some day and grow boobs when that time came along.

Fast forward to today. I'm 37, I have 4 kids, and I was unable to breastfeed any of them. My OB diagnosed me with glandular insuffiency - basically, I don't have any milk producing tissue. That's what responds to hormones during pregnancy and enlarges the breasts. No milkies, no boobies growing bigger. Mine look just as they did at 12 (and five minutes).

I've been wearing padded bras, silicone enhancers, and - for the last 3 years - mastectomy prosthetics. I'm done with that now.

Today I go to book my surgery with Dr. Koenig in Rochester, NY. Can't wait!

Good luck with your upcoming surgery. I too was very small and finally decided to go for a BA, it was the best decision I've made. Again best of luck! Yay for boobs! You will do great and feel FABULOUS! :-)

Scheduled for April!

My husband and I spent almost two hours at Dr. Koenig's office. The staff was friendly, the facility impeccable, and Dr. Koenig informative and kind.

I want my breasts to look natural and proportionate. I have very little breast tissue to start, and I'm tall (5'8") with a larger frame & wide chest (15cm breast width). We decided to go with 600cc. I was a little shocked that I would need so large an implant, but the sizers don't lie - the smaller ones looked odd and teeny on me. I'm hoping for a full D cup. April 13 can't come fast enough!

Before pics posted below. Goodbye, tiny five minute boobies!

Hi and welcome! I am also having surgery with Dr. Koenig in just 10 days! I'm having a Mommy Makeover which includes a breast augmentation. I'm also super excited for the new changes! Dr. Koenig has been wonderful through this process.

So exciting! I considered the mommy makeover, but I had 3 C-sections and a supposed-to-be-laparoscopic-turned open hysterectomy and I just can't do another abdominal surgery. I'll live with a flabby belly and console myself with boobies, ha!

Hi
I had breast augmentation several years back with Dr Konieg and I just had liposuction. He is awesome and I feel he's the best. They are a class act. Never felt rushed answered all questions. Very happy with my results.
Good luck your in great hands!

Thank you! I feel good about him. All of his work seems geared towards a natural look. No barbies!

Made rice sizers

600cc = 2.64 cups of rice. I went with 2 2/3 cups. I think I tied them too tightly and they were very hard. Will redo more loosely bound.

My biggest concern is that my breasts look natural after surgery, and not huge & fake. 600cc seems like so much! And yet I don't want to go too small and think, why bother??
