I am a 35 yo mother of two. I have thought about getting a BA for years but it was really nothing more than a thought. After having two kids I looked pretty good. I was thin and breast were a large B cup and pretty perky. After turning 25 I began to put on weight and of course my boobs grew. So the thought of getting a BA was less and less. My boobs were pretty nice I was probably in a large C cup. The weight kept increasing and I got to the point that it was too much. I had gained about 40 lbs. I decided that it was time to shed some pounds and so I began my journey of healthy eating and exercising. After about 6 months I dropped 30 lbs. with that much weight loss I lost my boobs too. They went from very inflated to extremely deflated. They were no longer the perky B cups before the weight gain. I talked with my husband about getting a BA and of course he was all for it. I spent about a year researching doctors, pictures, breast sizes, options on position of the breast such a High profile or moderate, type of implants, and incision sight. I felt like I was ready to this. A friend of mine turned me on to Dr. Robert Bolling. I called and set up a consult. I went to the consultation and I must say that his assistant Darlene was great she talked with me and my husband about everything and answered many of the questions that we had. Dr. Bolling came in and he was very nice and caring. I told him that I wanted to go as large as I could because I only want to do this 1 time. He told me what he was comfortable doing and did not try to persuade me to do anything that I wasn't comfortable doing. He said he was comfortable doing 650cc HP overfills. The cost of surgery through him was extremely affordable. It was $3000 if you decided to do it in the Fayette office and $3600 for the Fairhope office. Darlene explained the pricing was low due to the low overhead and that Dr. Bolling wanted to make this affordable for everyone. I will say that the low pricing concerned me a bit. So, I decided to do more research before scheduling my surgery. After a couple of months went by I came to the conclusion that expensive surgery does NOT mean a better one. I called Darlene and told her that I was ready. My surgery will be on Aug. 1,2016. I am very nervous. I have gone through this process in my head a gazillion times. I have a fear that they will be too small, too large, or lop sided. I have thought about postponing or just cancelling. When I would start feeling like this I would go look at more pics and read reviews on Dr. Bolling and I would get right back on track. So, as my surgery approaches I will post up dates and I will post throughout the process. I really hope that my experience helps someone else.
