This site has been so helpful in my long journey to getting a BA. I have always been petite and unfortunately rather pear-shaped. About a year ago, I went for a consultation. I ended up not scheduling the surgery, both in part due to finances and not feeling comfortable with the doctor I met.
I finally decided a few months ago that this was something I really wanted and was willing to spend the money. I just want to buy a swimsuit top that is not an XS in juniors! And I want to be able to buy bras without a ton of padding!! Most of all, I want my body to be proportional!! (rant over lol)
I had my consultation in January with Dr. Mabourakh. Based on all the amazing reviews of him on here, I was already convinced that he was the doctor for me. The consultation went really well and I felt comfortable with his experience and that he could give me the results I was looking for. He didn't measure me as he uses the 3D imaging technology, which was so awesome! I was able to see what I would look like with the different size implants much better than just trying the sizers on under my shirt.
I just put my deposit down and scheduled surgery for April 28 :) My pre-op is on April 4, so I'll be obsessively stalking this site and posting wish pictures until then! I can't wait!!
Stats:
5'3", 108lbs
32A-ish (have to wear padded bras so they don't gap)
Pear shape - 31" 26" 34.5"

How much did you pay. I'm thinking about going to same doctor. I'm in folsom area myself. But Georgia is much cheaper. So how much did you pay...total. for saline or silicone?

My total was about $6500 for silicone. I believe it's cheaper for saline. I'm happy with the price as Dr. Mabourakh has a lot of experience and wonderful reviews, and so far my recovery is going really well. I would recommend him.

Uploading some wish pictures...
It's been difficult to find similar stories of other women who are looking to go with smaller implants. I'm looking at 250 cc smooth round moderate plus (Mentor) implants. I've read so many reviews of women who started out trying to go from an A to a C and ended up at a D or even DD! Honestly, I would much rather go a little on the smaller side and get a nice slope/shape than go too big. Hope these pictures and my review will help other women looking at smaller implants! Don't get carried away by the boob greed!

Im 5 days post op. I am 5"3 and weight 100 lbs. I got 225 cc me tor smooth silicone round unders. Let me tell you, I couldnt have picked a better size. I wanted the natural and perky look and that is what I got. A full B that looks good with bralettes as well as push up bras. At first I though they were small, but they need to settle and drop.

That's awesome that you're happy with your size :) Hope your recovery continues going well!

I've been staring at the calendar every day this month, and have finally hit 10 days until my pre-op! When I put my deposit down in February, I was calm and just plain excited, but the anxiety is really starting to sink in. I'm hoping that me pre-op appointment will reassure me that I've made the right decision, and looking forward to trying on sizers one last time! I'm about 90% sure I'll stick with 250cc mod+, but I might try on a few other sizes just to see; also considering 225 cc. They sound so small compared to most women who go 300 and bigger, but I just remember thinking "they're HUGE" when I tried on the 250. Will update again after my pre-op with the finalized size!

Honestly, whatever size you choose you will be happy. Once you have your surgery and look down, you're going to think "OMG THEY'RE HUGE" no matter what... but the swelling will lessen and they will settle and you're going to love them, I promise! I had mine done almost 10 years ago and it was one of the best things I ever did for myself. Don't second guess anything, it's time to be excited!
For comparison, I am 5'9" 165lbs and I went with 300cc. I have a large frame and broad shoulders. Nobody thinks they are fake because they are extremely proportionate to my body. This was important to me at the age of 18 when I had them done because I didn't want my breasts to "walk in the room before I did" and I didn't desire the added attention. If anything, I just wanted SOMETHING that would make me less self-conscious. I wanted to feel normal, not the center of attention. 10 years later they have settled and they truly do look smaller as the years have gone by, so if you would like to retain that same size I would recommend going on the larger side. I'm still very happy with them and they have become a part of me but do not define me.
Good luck on your journey! Here for you if you have any questions. :)
