27 Years Old, 1 Child, 34A Wanting 500cc Breast Augmentation - El Paso, TX
ORIGINAL POST
Hello all! First off let me start by saying like...
WORTH IT$6,000
Hello all! First off let me start by saying like many of you smaller chested ladies out there I've been waiting to fill out my bra since puberty... And I'm still waiting to this day. I'm about 5'5" and roughly 115 lbs with a slim build. I have a 6 year old daughter, while I was pregnant my boobs did fill out to about a B cup but soon after I had her they deflated to a barely A cup. It's to the point where the cups pop open in a 34A bra and a feel like they're a bit more saggy than pre pregnancy.... I've always wanted a breast augmentation since I realized I was never going to grow my own and now with a supporting husband I'm finally going to go through with it.
I had a consultation with Dr Humberto Palladino here in El Paso, TX after much deliberation on who to go with and I'm pretty set with him. He was very polite, yet personable, he answered all my and my husbanded questions (he had more than I did lol) and I did not feel rushed at all during the consultation. Don't get me wrong it was awkward being topless in front of 2 other people plus my husband but I'm glad we finally went through with it. I got to try on different sizers and was between 450cc and 550cc, to my understanding about every 200 cc is an additional cup size up. We finally decided on 500cc round silicone which on myself will get me to my goal of C to a D cup. (If they end up bigger than even better LOL) we also set a date for the surgery on September 10th, about a month away!! :)
I'm filled with both so much anticipation and anxiety. I can't wait to have a curvy womanly figure but of course I'm still struggling with the size... I'm both nervous about going to big or too small. And of course I keep getting people telling me not to go so big because I'll look "weird" since I'm so slim. At the end of the day I think I've decided that I do want some nice large boobies, hey if I'm paying for them then I might as well get my money's worth out of it right?? I've also convinced myself that if I don't like them... Then later on I can always get a reduction... And by later on I mean in my 50s :P
So here is the start of my journey.... Not to mention that since I found this site it has definitely helped me with what to expect... And since I haven't found too many girls with my size and my desires I thought I'd try to help someone else with my story. Here's to a beautiful beginning!

Vectra 3D imaging during pre op
I forgot to mention at my initial consultation they used the Vectra 3d imaging system to give me an idea of what I would look like with the implants. I also have the version without the bikini top but I'm not sure if I'm ready to post something like that lol excuse the bad lighting. Also there it's showing 400cc but I'm still aiming to go for the 500cc instead ;)
I have my pre op appointment scheduled for August 19th which is next week! I can't believe how quickly time is going... Before I know it I'll be getting my new additions. It's crazy! The hubby doesn't understand my anxiety/excitement as I keep sending him pictures of boobs that I like ha! What husband wouldn't enjoy that though lol

To exparel or not????
Hello lovelies.... It's officially a little over 2 weeks til my BA and I'm sooooo excited! I just want to cross to the other side already! My anticipation is though the roof since I've been waiting for my boobies to come in for about 14 years already lol well it's almost time.
Last week I had my official pre op labs done with and EKG and also pre op photos for the dr office. I also received most of the needed vitamins and post op creams, along with a surgical bra. It's officially real!!! Not to mention that I was also billed for the surgery as well lol money well spent I hope!
Here is my question to you all. My dr mentioned since I was concerned with the pain management afterward that he recommends an exparel injection into the surgery site. Apparently it helps with pain management for 3 days after the surgery (which based on the reviews seem to be the worst for pain) and is usually used for tummy tucks. I decided to go ahead and pay the extra fee ($500) for the injection and I'm hoping it's worth it. Have any of you ladies opted for the exparel and did it work for you??? That is the main concern I have at the moment.

Never heard of that but percocets were plenty good for me after! Pain is not so bad, just uncomfortable! Good luck, I got 500cc too! :)

I seem to be one of the few that's considering it lol I'm not very good with pain so I figured might as well give it a shot... Not to mention a was prescribed all sorts of pain meds too. I looked through your story and it got me even more excited! Can't wait to see how yours end up, they look amazing already! Congrats :)

I was a deflated B wine r with 301cc silicone and now I'm a full C. I also had an added surgery of a lollipop break left and to be completely honest there was zero pain involved. None. Nada. Pressure? Yep. Uncomfortable? A tad bit but nothing that Tylenol couldn't handle. Never took the pain meds either. Oh and my implants were placed under the muscle (and I heard that was painful). GODD LUCK to you!!'

Sorry for the typos! My 6 ur old twins are wrestling on the couch next to me!

No worries lol that's good to hear, I think I'm just freaking myself out by reading horror stories on BA that involved a lot of pain. I need to stop being a wimp lol

During surgery, I was given injections all around my breasts of some kind of local numbing solution. I don't know if it was exparel. Mine was included in the procedure, but my surgery was over $7,000. I wanted to experience as little pain as possible and took Norco/Vicodin for almost 7 days straight, so naturally I was thinking both were worth it! I also was given an optional eMend prescription which 100% guarantees no nausea. It was $100 and worth not dealing with heaving over a bucket or a toilet with my new additions.

Awesome. It sounds almost identical to my situation so it looks like it's going to be worth the money. Did you healing process go well? How was the pain?

Never heard of that, I found the first 3 days very painful. If you have the option for a pain free recovery go for it! Best of luck :-)
