I have always hated my saggy patties and at 35 with one child, it is time!

I'm 5'1 135lbs. My ps and I agree that I am currently a sm/mid C. I definitely need a lift but I am torn on implants. PS noted that I have a lot of breast tissue. I would like to be a full firm C/small D. I am afraid that anything over 235cc is going to push me to a double D. PS also noted that I would need at least a 12cm base. So that puts me into the mentor moderates as opposed to the moderate +. Ugh, decisions decisions!

I am shooting for June 6. If I wait until may 1 to schedule the surgery I can save over $1000. I'm thinking that will buy a lot of new bras and tops!

I think you are smart to decide on a size and let your surgeon decide on the cc's. I was already a d/dd but very empty. I explained to him that shape and placement were more important than size and that I would let him decide once he got in there whether we were going with the d or dd to get the results I wanted. I wanted beautiful breasts regardless of the number or letter size or cc that gave me that. I didn't know until after surgery, actually 3 days later, at my first post op what I actually got. It ended up being 350 and 375 I believe. I still in a sports bra so I don't know what size I will be but it looks like a very full D. Trust your surgeon and remember what you are starting with, its only up from here literally lol!!! You are going to be thrilled no matter what! Good luck , can't wait to see what you pick!

You look great after just 2 weeks! I have plenty of time, I just hope that I don't start OVER thinking things! Everyone looks so fab after their lift that really, i probably can't go wrong!

In my opinion if implants are even a thought , do it! You don't want to be "I wish I had.. " later. Also as my PS told me they will appear smaller after because they won't take up as much area.. & even with my small implants I still feel like they are smaller than before! But I still live them!!:)

ps I am 5'3 128lbs and think I had way less breast tissue than you if that helps give you a visual with my before and afters since we are similar in stature. The photos you see of me post op is still very swollen keep in mind!

Well i officially scheduled my BL/BA today! The big day is June 6! I'm excited yet nervous. I have my pre-op appointment on 5/22. I think I'll feel better after that appointment bc that is when we will really discuss size. Right now I'm stuck on 255 cc, moderate profiles. I know that seems small but i really do have a lot of breast tissue. I could almost have a lift, reduction, AND implants.

So the count down is on! Thank you to all who have posted.

BTW, how do i get my post moved over to the Breast Lift board?

I also went quite 'small' with 235 in one breast and 275 in the other. (I also needed a minimum of a 12cm BBW.) I was a little concerned that they would be on the small side or 'not be worth it'..... Now 2 weeks later i am grateful I left the decision to my PS. They are perfect. I cannot imagine having larger breasts, especially since I only want to do this once, and not have to re-size in my 50's with larger-make-me-look-fat-and-matronly boobs. You will be pleased.

You have the same kind of boobies as me!!!! I'm going to get mine done too, just working on the where/who....I am a little larger tho, 34DD. I'm excited to see your results! I'm debating the implant...to get posts removed, email the moderator with the Contact Us button :)

One week tomorrow! My ps, friends, and the web convinced me that I wouldn't be as happy w/ out an implant so I'm going to it! I need about a 12-12.5 cm base so that appears to be around 255-275 ccs of the mentor moderates. The hope is that they fill me back out and give me the upper fullness that I currently lack. I know everyone says not to get hung up on the amount of ccs but I can't help myself! My PS will also be doing a full anchor lift. Hopefully, I will love them and post pics right away ;) Good luck to you!

Tomorrow!

Tomorrow, 8 am is "d" day! At least I'm guessing that I will come out as a size D. I'm trying so hard not to get hung up on the size. A pretty D or DD is better than the saggy c that I am now! I am getting a little nervous and hoping that I can sleep tonight. I have all of our laundry done and the house picked up and someone to come and give the house a clean while I'm having surgery. I think I am ready!

Good luck tomorrow!! Can't wait to see how they turn out. I had my consult yesterday - looking like I'm getting the 270 cc moderate profiles with my BL...so sounds like we're on the same page. Can't wait to see how they turn out!
