Super excited to be a future Revis girl! I've been researching him since college when I lived in other states/cities. I happened to move to Fort Lauderdale for a job, secretly one of the first thought I had was "OHMYGOODNESS I WILL LIVE IN THE SAME CITY AS DR REVIS!" but I kept that excitement on the inside. After having a wonderful and informative consultation as soon as I moved down over 2 years ago, I finally decided to take the plunge and book my surgery. The images attached are some of the goal images I showed the Dr, he complimented me on the consistency of the breasts in the images and said my goal was attainable with 600-650cc silicone implants. I do not have implants right now and fit in to 32C VS bras and 34A Agent Provacteur bras, but my boobs are by NO MEANS what you think of when you say "32C". The implant sizes sound bigger than what most other doctors would quote, but based on other reviews and images I can trust Revis will make it amazing. I lined the surgery up for the Monday before Thanksgiving so I could take the week off from work no problem. So far everything has been great, but I do have a weakness in this process. I am not a strong communicator when it comes to making decisions or changes in my life.
My boyfriend and I have an AWESOME relationship, but he does not agree with my decision to have this surgery. I booked the surgery without consulting him (which was not fair on my end, this is a big decision and $$$) and when I told him about the surgery he was not happy. He is insistent that he loves me the way I am and that breast implants are a waste of money. He is not just saying this to cover face, his opinion is honest - our communication is solid and I know his family and values very well.
Since breaking the surgery news to him he has been supportive, but almost to a worrying point. He wants to come to all pre-op appointments and know exactly what is going on. I get where he's coming from, like I said our relationship is wonderful. We value open communication and when a big decision is made we always discuss together. But I am worried if I am honest with my goals during my pre-op, he will be upset and really try to influence my decision to the point that I might end up with a MUCH smaller size than I want. He knows I like the fake look and has always expressed his extreme distaste for "bolt ons". As you see in my goal images, I am not messing around. I want BOOBS.
Has anyone been in a similar pre-surgery situation? How have you dealt with with loved ones disagreeing with your decision to have surgery?

Don't let go of your wish size! Your BF/Hubby gonna love them either way, but if u don't get what u want u gonna hate your decision that u went smaller and coz of that comes resentment which definitely not gonna be good for any relationship... My Ex wanted me to have 800ccs but I insisted to having 1100ccs and guess what? He loved them! That he became my ex had nothing to do with that. Now single I went recently to the 1500s range. Best decision ever! Thx God here over Europe we're allowed to have those as custom made silicone gel implants:) if u like take a look at my review...
Xo and good luck and best wishes!

Hun even with a vacation and flight tickets is still cheaper in Europe than in the USA... The only downside is that u're not near to the doctor who would do your OP which's of course an issue...

That is a concern for post operative care reasons. I know this site is for all women to voice their own opinion. Yes you're entitled to that. However, I feel that women who are thinking or have already chosen larger sizes implants get a negative response. It's not only from the ladies it's from the doctors as well. We all do research, we all are told the risks. Big or not it's a surgery that you may not make it out of. There is no reason to try to be negative about another's goals with their body. Okay so they don't recommend larger sizes in implants. They also used to say drugs like acutane a chemotherapy drug, was good for acne as well. The patients had a warning of its side affects but still wanted clear skin. It's just that we need to support each other. Yes I like larger breasts, I'm a larger sizes woman. Is it risky? Hell yes. I love them and that's all that matters in the end. This is not confrontational Sexylatina it's just my opinion as well. I too work in the medical field, I feel where you're coming from. Btw you look great!

Yeah got that;) and it's Mrs. I haven't divorced Roger ;)))) LOL gags hahahaha just kidding I'm enjoying the hell out of my sexy, single and [RS bleep] in Berlin situation;o) and thx to my new gals not spending many nights alone either;o)
Yes I understand completely the postoperative concerns, that's why I'm living 90minutes drive from my PS's facility and 15 minutes walking distance from his assistant;) when I got really sick over 2 years ago he picked me up in 5 minutes after I called and brought me immediately over to the hospital of my PS. I also wouldn't be comfortable otherwise... So I really understand, it's just sucks that the FDA's sitting on the approval like a lazy biatch;)

Thank you. And I do understand that thicker women need bigger implants otherwise it looks weird, but I do see women here who are thin with disproportionately large implants to the point where they cross the line between looking sexy and looking like a freak show. I guess it's more a psychological issue, like dysmorphic syndrome, and it just saddens me that they put their body through such health risk. Anyways not looking to offend anyone as much as trying to keep someone from risking their health.
October 25, 2015
Definitely it is. I call it supermammorexia;) but hey people're doing strange things to their bodies since human kind exist on this planet;o)

I hear ya... You know my boobie greed is terrible.... That's why I take so long with my research... Every few years they change what's good nd bad.. I did hear of a manufacturer trying to approve a larger silicon implant in the US. I can't say I won't be tempted to ask for more info lol. Your opinion is needed here to balance diversity in the forum:-)
October 21, 2015
yes! my hubby said he didn't want me to get them.... i had wanted them for 10 yrs!!!!!! unfortunately i got them and the dr botched me so i had to have them fixed by dr revis who is a god!!!!!!! anyway fast forward 4 yrs and my husband LOVES them. I honestly think they just say that in fear we are gonna leave them once we become more self confident. My ONLY regret is not going bigger.... boobie greed has me every day i went with 425's and altho i am a 32dd i feel like i look like a full c cup. I wish i had gone with 600-650's!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 21, 2015
I feel like your pics look like 800's but since you already have "tissue to start off with thats probably what u would look llike. i was a 32a b at best. go BIG girl!!!!!!!! or you will regret it like me.

Today's surgery...
sparklebunnieNovember 24, 2015
was AMAZING!
Since my first review, I had an informative pre-op with the team at South Florida Plastic Surgery, including Dr Revis himself. Everyone was incredibly polite, professional, and knowledgable. Dr Revis seemed even more excited about the surgery than I was! It was very reassuring to see the man really has that much passion about a procedure he does so often. We decided on 650cc silicone implants to be inserted under the muscle with an incision under the breast. I felt wonderful about my decision after my consultation, but the pre-op really sealed the deal.
The surgery was bright and early this morning. I was calm, a little sleepy, and completely prepared for the aftercare. The hospital is very nice and the staff was wonderful. I even fell asleep before anesthesia was administered - coupled with my sleepyness, the nurse put tons of warm blankets on me and little foot massager boots. I was out like a light without the anesthesia! Hehe.
Surgery started at 7:30 and I was out a little before 9. I woke up from the anesthesia good to go and with minimal pain. BF picked me up no problem and I was home by 9:45. My boobs looked how I expected them to look immediately after surgery, a tad swollen and high compared to what the final outcome will be once healed. There is quite a bit of swelling, but they look just like the day one images of his other patients with final outcomes I really love. I will be patiently waiting for these babies to drop and fluff.
I was prescribed antibiotics, pain killers, muscle relaxers, and anti-nausea medication. I psyched that my insurance actually covered the cost of most of these drugs! Ladies, ask you pharmacist to check with your insurance because I managed to save about $100! I did not need the anti-nausea medication but the other 3 prescriptions I am taking regularly, especially the antibiotics and muscle relaxers. The painkillers have been helpful, I've taken a few today but I anticipate needing less as the days go on.
In the meantime, I will be wearing bras without underwires and taking it easy for the next week. I will post pictures soon!

Wow! Congrats!!! Yeah during the day pain is usually manageable, but when u're going to sleep take some strong ones with muscle relaxers and maybe 1 antinausea pill that u won't wake up in the middle of the night in pain or worst pain and vomiting;) sleep on your back in half sitting position with a lots of pillows or in a reclaimer... If u're unable to fall asleep take a Valium to help with that :)
Wish u a quick, healthy and eventless recovery!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!! I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU!! 650 cc is a great size and you won't regret it or wish you had gone smaller or bigger. Make sure to take it easy for the next couple of weeks even if you are not in pain or think you can do things you are NOT suppose to do. Healing will be a lot easier and quicker with better results. LOL! Did you get the internal bra done with it? Would you mind keeping us posted on your result and updates? I need a revision myself after a doctor botched me, been looking to Revis but very nervous. Thank you so much! Wishing you the best recovery and all the happiness with your new additions!! lol! :)

What is your BWD? Do you have any pre-BA photos? My BA is scheduled for January 14th and I'm still trying to decide on size.

How are you feeling? I hope your recovery is going well and you're happy with your new girls!
December 22, 2015
4 weeks later and I feel really good! Surgery was totally worth it and would do it again in a heartbeat. Hope you experience the same with your surgery!

Feelin' like a MILLION bucks 4 weeks after surgery. The boobs differ day to day at this point: some days they are soft and Boteccelliesque and other days they are hard, high, and sore. It's all part of recovery though. My nurse and doctor friends are impressed that I feel so well so soon after surgery.
Week 1 (days 1-5 post op) was rough, no two ways about that. I took the prescribed pain pills and muscle relaxers in their 4-8 hour windows. During the first few days of recovery I was definitely counting down the last hour until I was allowed my next pill because OW. I took it easy and the pills made me sleep a lot. Less Netflix, more chill on those days. Friends and family in the medical industry recommended I bathe the incision area in Hibiclens soap. It smells beyond clean, like a straight hospital level disinfectant and I LOVED bathing my underbust with it. It doesn't foam but feels very clean at the incision sight. I overheard other people having different surgeries the same day as mine - they had bathed with the same soap prior to surgery and would continue using it after surgery. Had Thanksgiving, family encouraged me to lay down and do nothing but I'm just not that type of person. Sucked it up and socialized while drinking TONS of water so I could accommodate my friend for the next few days, antibiotics. Went Black Friday shopping the next day and along with gifts for some other people, I got two Calvin Klein soft bras for less than $15, whuttt. TY Macy's. I tried on a 32DDD bra and it fit. Bahahaha - I haven't measured myself yet so I will keep you posted on my official bra size. I walked around a shopping/eating area over the weekend with boyfriend and I got tired freaking fast. I was feeling good in the morning but man, the recovery process tuckers you out quick.
Week 2 (days 6-12 post op) I went back to work. I work in lingerie design so everyone was pretty excited to see. Other places, what I experienced might be considered an HR nightmare but thank GOD I don't work other places. [RS bleep] was freaking awesome and everyone loved em! Laid off the pain pills this week because they made me crazy and stuck to some ibuprofen if I needed it. Took some muscle relaxers but then realized they made me tired as all hell despite the Cuban coffee I was inhaling. No more of those for me. I wore high neckline shirts since my breasts were still sitting really high and looked closer to crazy than crazy hot. I tried on a lot of my clothes this week and almost everything still fit. Thank youuuu everyone for telling me I needed a new wardrobe. Whatever, got some new clothes, can't complain babyy. Got raging day drunk at all-you-can-drink mimosa brunch this week and got naked for some ladies in the bathroom. They are all swearing to Dr Revis and booking appointment shortly.
Week 3 (days 13-19 post op), EW had to surrender my car to some body work so I had to take the TriRail to work, Broward-Dade public transit is not desirable. Weeks like this I really miss NYC. Got a few weird cat calls day 1 so I added baggy silhouettes to the high neckline shirts because, please, no one look at me. Had to reschedule my first post op due to my car appointment. Wahhh. By the end of this week, boyfriend finally said "Hey, I think I like these now". SCORE. Checked my measurements and have a 30 underband and 37.5 overbust putting me at a 30DDDD ,FF, or G cup depending on brand. uh HELLO I have arrived.
Week 4 (days 20-26 post op), hello Dr Revis! Monday was exactly 21 days since surgery. The steri strips over my scars came off that day and I could have started going back to the gym according to the timeline given on surgery date, but since the next day was my post op I wanted to wait for the Dr stamp of approval. Tuesday morning I got the okay to resume EVERYTHING back to normal full on - no surgical bra (which I had been wearing 24/7 every day since surgery), no being scared about working out, and that my awesome scar treatment Mepiform strips were uhhPROVED. Hell yeah to all of this. During the appointment I was instructed to start massaging 10-15 minutes 2-3 times a day. Been doing that and wow it's making a difference I am amazedDdDd. I wore some of my cute new soft bras this week and even made one of my own. I have been hoarding lace for the past few months and friggin itching to make stuff with it. Thank you healing boobiesss! Working out was a little killer this week - did Zumba, bike, and leg lifting and holy crap everything was sore. Getting back into it needs to be taken easy for sure. Underband decreased to 29" and overbust remained 37.5". Barenecessities is having a killer sale, time for some more soft bras. The Mepiform strips are making it work in the scar reduction department. I really wish I took a good before picture of the scar so I could show the difference these strips have made. I was so freaked out by the scars when the steri strips came off, I didn't even look at them and just started slapping the Mepiform on. They started out pretty raised, about 3 mm wide, and about 2.25-2.5" long, but that is really what to expect so short after surgery. Low and behold, within 1 week the scars look like dinky pencil lines. CRAZINESS. The Mepiform completely transformed the scars and they are so tiny. The only thing tiny about my looks because UNGGG these BOOBS are AWESOME and BIG just like I wanted them. MMMM.
This week I am seeing my immediate family for Christmas and all the ladies in the fam are excited to see. Glad I am seeing the fam at this point of my recovery because babes are looking good right about now and a little less scary. Recovery have been uneventful and I have gotten back to my normal life fast. Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone, sparkle it up!

Hello! I'm sooo happy you are feeling and doing great after surgery! Really glad your boyfriend is loving them too, icing on the cake!! :) Please just remember to take it easy at the gym b/c its only been a month. Your body and chest muscles are still trying to adjust to the new implants and the surgery.( I'm a gym nut and train intensively! lol). You look great and so happy for you!! Merry Christmas!! :))))

Thank you thank you! Taking my current situation and using it as an excuse to focus on legs because lord knows I need to. Feeling great though!

Hey! Hoping you update soon, you have such a great bod!
I loveee your wish pics they look just mine do. My husband loves big breast and met me with really full 34C that would overflow but didn't fit a d just quite. After having a baby and loosing a lot of weight I was left with a deflated B and want 700cc or so to achieve my goa look.. My husband isn't very fond of the idea as I know he loves me regardless of my small chest but I don't feel proportionate. Though he worries he knows that getting augmented will make me happy and confident and like he says the most beautiful thing in a woman is her confidence... If you make this decision do it for your self I love and respect my husbands opinion but in the end you are the one that will live in your body so you need to be happy with yourself to be able to love others just as much! :) wish you the best of luck in your decision.
