Hated my First Ba of 457 Ccs Mods Now Loving my mod-plus 1050 Ccs Saline Implants - Fort Lauderdale, FL

Hi I'm 38 years old 5'2 & 96 pound female
This was my second ba first ba was done in 2008 457 ccs mods silicone unders. I had a natural large gap between breast and began with little natural breast tissue plus found out at pre op with Dr.Revis I have a large bwd of 15 so it ate up my ccs with first ba plus huge gap still remained. I emailed Dr.Revis for about a month he always quickly answered all my many questions. I had emailed several P'S but none could even guarantee me that they could fit in 800 ccs but Revis said no problem just will need to enlarge your pockets well I didn't realize that could be done and most P's don't because it lot more time consuming plus you need to know what your doing. So I immediately booked a surgery date after seeing how confident he was in giving me large implants. I drove 19 hours to have surgery with him and it was soooo worth it :)
Once I was at pre- op and tried on sizers I realized I wanted much larger than 800 I fell in love with the 1050 ccs I always had planned on saline implants. He gave me 750 overfilled to 1050 ccs overfilling saline not only helps prevent rippling but gives lot's of upper pole roundness which I wanted he also gave me Mod-plus implants and implants diameter was 16.2 so 1.2 cm over my bwd of 15 but this was vital in closing my gap plus he properly positioned my pockets and the internal bra which not only brings cleavage closer but prevents bottoming out with ex- large implants well now at over 10 month's post op I have kissing cleavage naked actually can't get a finger in there :) I have lot's of upper pole fullness and side Boob's too didn't realize how much I would love them. Dr Revis isn't just a brilliant PS but truly one of the nicest people you will ever meet. The morning of my surgery at 7:30 am he was on time and in such a upbeat mood that calmed my nerve's because at pre op he told me he wasn't sure he could fit in 1050 ccs but said he would if could do so safely well it was my max but he fit in 1050 ccs and I've had absolutely no complications from going from 457 ccs to 1050 ccs.
I really can't recommend him enough he's truly a blessing for those of us who want ex- large implants very few P'S do them and do them so well. Plus added bonus he uses special tools so even though he goes full submuscular unders he doesn't cut any muscle so less pain and down time. He also preforms his surgeries in a very nice e hospital actually felt more like a nice hotel lobby which was calming plus if something does go wrong you have a whole team of trauma specialist ready to spring into action which is very comforting. I hope this helps anyone ????

Hi. I am very seriously considering Dr Revis for a much needed revision. Do you have any other before and after pics ? Thanks
December 24, 2014
I don't have any before pictures asI hated my ffirst ba Lol I've considered putting pictures up but this a public forum men on here so don't feel comfortable with this and no one knows I've had a ba much less 2 except my parents ;) If you come to JBI lot's of Revis girl's on there but you have to reach member status before seeing any pictures because they get rid of men and scammers trying to get on there. I'll consider putting more fully clothed pictures up but those are really not very helpful I know sorry :(
December 24, 2014
Thanks ☺ No before pictures hated first ba results. I'm not comfortable putting up more pictures as men can join this site sorry. I'm considering some fully clothed one's but they really don't help you or PS only [RS bleep],bra's, lingerie really help sorry :( What ccs are you wanting? Is this your first or second ba?
December 24, 2014
Oops double reply just ignore Shopping queen Lol
December 24, 2014
Just got my second boob job last week. 450 CC's. Not happy! I'm maybe a small D. I wanted to at least be a very large D. I'm 5'6, 130 pounds.
December 24, 2014
Well your very early post op you will have a lot of changes with my second ba they got bigger at 1 year post op I was definitely surprised ☺ What was your first ba ccs?
December 24, 2014
Please don't be discouraged your only 1 week out my 1050 ccs looked wayyyyyyy smaller than they do now at 1 week they looked weird and bruised Lol
December 24, 2014
270!! And I was a large c, small d. Then I had 2 kids. The dr said my tissue had thinned and 450 cc would take me up a bit and back to how I was before. But in my mind, I was thinking from 270 to 450 was dramatic and I would sure be a large d. :(. Not so much.
December 24, 2014
It roughly takes 200 ccs to go up a cup size. Do not judge your results give at least 3 month's I understand your frustrated but your wayyy to early to be judging results ☺ And also I've learned not too go by cup size I want to be but I get boobie idol pictures and show PS exactly what you want but in your case because you had thinned out skin your PS did right thing not taking you to high risking complications. If in future you want to increase ccs they can do what they call Strattice which is pig skin or cadaver skin and that's how they get your skin stronger so it can hold more ccs plus you might need internal bra for more support if go larger but this is all pretty expensive especially strattice. I really think you will be happy just give it time ;)
December 24, 2014
And I have a huge gap! :(
December 24, 2014
I had one too with my first ba 457 ccs mods but Revis took care of this through several things he did first gave me Mod- plus implants and the diameter was 16.2 and my bwd is barley 15 this also gave me side Boob's ☺ Second thing he properly positioned my pockets and internal bra plus overfilled saline all equaled kissing cleavage naked but lot of times depending on how large gap is you have to get larger implants too feel in gap plus all the other things I mentioned and you definitely need a experienced PS like Revis for ex large implants or Dr.Hunsaker at his private practice he does amazing work and cheaper. I can't recommend Coral gables location heard too many horrible stories about this place.
December 25, 2014
What's bwd?
December 25, 2014
And do you suggest saline or silicone?
December 26, 2014
BWD is the width between boob to boob your PS has a special tool to measure it just call PS office they should have it on file :)
December 26, 2014
It's really a personal choice ☺ Some girls prefer silicone because softer more natural look although saline in can too. I personally love saline overfilled gives ton upper pole roundness basically a fake [RS bleep] boob look Lol
December 29, 2014
Hi. This may sound like a dumb question but is strattice different than an internal bra? Or, is strattice what is used to make an internal bra? Thanks so much for all of your posts!!
December 29, 2014
Not a dumb question at all ☺ They are completely separate things but do have one thing in common hold up extra weight of larger implants. Strattice is either pig or cadaver skin placed on area's of your Boob's were there is thinned out skin to strengthen it so it will hold up larger implants. Internal bra used for two reasons too prevent bottoming out and bring cleavage closer but this can only be done on a second ba because like my PS uses permenant sutures that he attaches to scar tissue from first ba and every PS does internal bra different and some don't do at all because it's very time consuming and typically used for larger implants but I've seen girls get it with 600 ccs if they have thin skin or prone to bottoming out or latural displacement. I hope I have explained it clearly I'm still learning myself. I do have a internal bra because I have 1050 ccs and needed cleavage brought closer. Oh and your welcome for all my post ☺
December 29, 2014
Thank you. For someone who is just learning you certainly know quite a bit. It has been 20 years since my first BA. I went to several surgeons several years ago and no one could give me a satisfactory answer. I have waited and waited for years. I am so glad I didn't just go with any of those surgeons for my second surgery. I have CC And I look a mess. I can't tell you what it's like to go for years with terrible looking breasts. But this time I am going to be much, much smarter. Thanks to the wonderful ladies on this site! Thank you so much you are truly a gem!!!! Best wishes to you!!
December 29, 2014
Thanks very much I've learned a lot from girls on jbi forum and Dr.Revis. I too am glad I waited 6 years before I had second ba didn't know anything about bwd and how important a role it plays in outcome and actually learned lot more after second ba like never go by a cup size you want but find a boobie idol you want your Boob's too look like and for me since I wanted 800 ccs I needed a ex large implant expert otherwise I was told it will depend on your pocket size if we can fit in 800 ccs well I knew mine were small due to having so little breast tissue but when I spoke too Revis he said no problem just will need to enlarge your pockets Iddidn't know this was even possible and few P'S do it because it's time consuming and they have to know what they are doing or they will enlarge them too much and this leads too complications. Of course once I tried on sizers I realized I wanted more than 800-900 ccs liked the 1050 ccs which ended up being my max he could safely put in anyway. Sorry for your complications what size implants do you have now? And what size are you wanting now? 20 years long time too deal with complications I'm sorry. I didn't have per say complications but huge gap and my ccs got eaten up by my large bwd of almost 15 plus no natural breast tissue equaled tiny looking 457 ccs and no cleavage at all. Good luck finding the right PS ☺
December 29, 2014
Doe's your cc cause you pain?
December 29, 2014
Hi. No pain at all. Just mental anguish! The ps I chose years ago should never of used saline in the first place and especially should not of put them above the muscle . They looked terrible even very early on after the surgery. I never went back to him even for a post op check and he didn't care. He was board-certified with 20 years experience at the time . What a joke! I have since learned that it takes a lot more than being board certified. Also, I truly don't know what he did with his 20+ years of experience. One thing I do know, however, is that he didn't know a thing about BA. I havelearned the hard way, that it is best to go to someone who specializes in BA. This time I will be looking for the best revisionary surgeon.
December 29, 2014
Hi. Could you please explain jbi forum. I couldn't even tell you what size I have now they are small and they just sit there like two round things on my chest with CC. He Didn't give me any options. I was such a fool, and just so grateful that I found a board-certified surgeon withyears of experience, that I just let him do his thing. That's why am so happy about this site, I think it will save so many women a lot of anguish.! As for what size I want now, I want to be fairly large. I am guessing I would go with 800's. I am thin skinned and also quite small so I am not sure what can be done. Thank you so much for all of your responses. You are a sweetheart!!
December 29, 2014
I too went to a PS board certified in both US and Canada but he really didn't know what he was doing in my opinion. Overs are tricky you definitely have too have plenty of natural breast tissue but my PS prefers full submuscular unders they last longer give better mammograms and don't stretch out the top layer of skin although he thinks some patients are good canindates for them but he told a girl who was had large overs 800 ccs I think that if she would have too start the process allover again so she decided to go back with overs because she wanted larger implants not what size she had currently. Revis is definitely good a repairing issues he isn't cheap but worth it at least for me I don't know were you live so not sure if you could drive to him like I did he's in Florida. Dr.Pousti is supposed to a very good ex large implant expert he's in San Diego California.
December 24, 2014
Where is he located? Do you mind sharing price? Do you have any before/after pics withOUT clothing? Maybe just hiding nipples? Clothing/bras makes it hard to tell the finished product. Thanks so much!
December 24, 2014
He's location is Fort Lauderdale Florida. No before pictures hated my first ba and I do have current pictures but this is a forum guys can join so I would never show [RS bleep] of my Boob's actually I don't even on a forum called JBI which is for woman only but men do manage to get in sometimes but they are quickly banned from site. I understand seeing bra's and [RS bleep] and lingerie wayyyyy more helpful sorry :( JBI forum has lots of Revis girls with pictures but you have to reach member status before seeing any pictures except tiny avatar pictures. Sorry :(
December 24, 2014
Forgot price it's actually listed up top 8,500$ ☺ we'll worth it ☺
December 24, 2014
Wow. Is that because of the size??
December 24, 2014
And what's 'member status'?? :)
December 24, 2014
Yes ex large implants more $ because lot more work involved enlarging pockets too accommodate 1050 ccs plus internal bra etc.
December 24, 2014
At first when you sign up your considured a newbie only can post questions member status allows you too become friends with other girls and view pictures and private message
December 24, 2014
How do I become member status?
December 24, 2014
What else should be considered with going "large"? You mentioned internal bra? Saline vs silicone? Etc....
December 24, 2014
No one knows how it is determined if you become a member the moderators decide this and say not too ask them how ;) Basically you ask any questions you have and help other girls out who have never had a ba before. You have had a ba? How many ccs ?
December 24, 2014
Oops sorry you told me your CCS Lol
December 24, 2014
Internal bra doe's two things help ex large implants from bottoming out and brings cleavage closer. As far as saline verses silicone well silicone only goes up to 800 CCS but coming in 2016 it's going up to at least 1000 ccs Dr.Revis say's. But I still would choose saline implants I love the upper pole roundness basically fake [RS bleep] boob look Lol they are definitely harder in beginning although the larger the silicone implants you go the harder they get too. I just love my overfilled saline implants but I like the fake look and don't mind firmer feel it's all about personal preference no wrong answer ☺
December 28, 2014
hi there! you seem to be sooo knowledgeable about all this boob stuff and I appreciate your help! I just posted some updated pics and I wanted to see if you would mind looking at them and sharing your opinions, suggestions, insights....? (if they are not posted yet, it might be a couple of hours or so) I'm going back for a revision as I've told you before, but just confused were to start with the PS. I'm basically a 34C and don't think i'm going to "end up" where I want to be in 3 months or in a year so i plan on getting fixed within 3 months or so. Plan is to be a at least a D. do you see the big gap between my boobs? i'd like that closed.. what about the way my breast point down a bit; is that normal, in your OPINION? any help you can offer, I would be so thankful for. Talk soon!
December 29, 2014
Don't see any pictures which is wierd as soon as you post them they should show up. But you should really ask Dr.Revis opinion his email address is on his website send him your pictures and questions ☺
December 29, 2014
i sure will.... pictures are up now! :)
January 24, 2015
Wow, you look great!, I'm jealous. Im on my 3rd BA and still not happy. I don't think my doctor is happy with me. I know the look I want and I haven't achieved it. I had saline, switched to silicone. I like the way the feel but really want mor projection and would like them higher. Guess I need to just be happy with what I have, im broke lol
January 25, 2015
Thanks your super sweet ☺ I'm sorry your dissatisfied with your implants after 3 BA's what size CCS do you have ? And what profile? I know with silicone UHP definitely for some girls gives great projection. Sorry understand being out of money I got my first ba 6,500$ 457 ccs mod silicone implants I hated them no upper pole or projection and still had gap between Boob's and my large bwd ate up my CCS and I began with little natural breast tissue so they looked tiny and couldn't get cleavage with a push up bra. For me I didn't care about feel I wanted to have bigger Boob's and upper pole roundness and I didn't know to ask Dr. Revis to close gap didn't know possible but between Mod-plus profile and he gave me implants diameter 16.2 my bwd is not even 15 so that's at least 1.3 over bwd which not only helped close gap gave me side Boob's and he properly positioning of my pockets, Internal bra which not only prevents bottoming out, Symmastia/ uniboob but brings cleavage closer together and large overfilled saline also helped close gap plus upper pole roundness and overfilled saline implants are like having HP so I got projection too and now I have kissing cleavage naked ☺ actually only a pin can fit in there Lol Dr. Revis is a boobie genius especially for ex-large implants but he does amazing work on smaller implants that's why right now he's booked past April for BA's he's just that popular not cheap but I had to have an ex-large boob expert because few are willing to give someone especially like me 1050 ccs because I had little natural breast tissue so that meant enlarging my pockets a lot and it's very time consuming in OR and so is internal bra which few P's do and he also uses permanent sutures like used in tummy tucks some P's just use stitches I feel safer with permanent sutures they are supposed to last 10 years but read they have lasted longer than this. I waited 6 years after my first ba because I couldn't afford upgrade. I don't see any of your pictures so I can't comment on them but if your really unhappy save up and I suggest a new PS not saying yours is bad but maybe a different PS would have different ideas too achieve the look you want because my first PS definitely was never going to give me the results Dr. Revis gave me. Oh and if you wanting to go larger Dr. Revis said in 2016 no date given but we in the US are getting silicone implants at least 1000 ccs and maybe more. So don't give up just save up I did and I am happy now well I do want 1650-1700 ccs now but that's just boobie greed because I'm very Happy to finally have the Boob's I didn't think were possible ☺ How long have you had your latest ba implants? I ask because my Boob's have continued to change actually increased in size and projection past my 1 year post op date ☺ I had and still do have super tight skin ;)
March 29, 2015
I was thinking about 800hp silicone im currently in 840hp saline.
January 26, 2015
Thanks for your response. I currently have 750cc's HP silicone. I'm 5"1 120lbs athletic tones... Im surprised you cant see my profile, I do have current pics up... Im currently saving for a tummy tuck, after three kids I'm due...lol
January 26, 2015
Okay I see your 650 ccs posted to doctors but I don't see pictures of 750 ccs HP? Your 650 ccs were very nice big size I'm assuming the HP 750 ccs are bigger more projection although I realize 100 ccs usually takes 200 ccs to go up a cup size. So just seeing your 650 ccs and could tell you were early post op saw steri strips to me they look big and gorgeous ☺ but I understand if you have a certain look you want . How far post op are you from 750HP? Tummy tuck good for you 3 kids you deserve it ☺ I'm not sure why I don't see any pictures except 650 ccs and that's not on your page but posted to doctors on here I'm obviously doing something wrong sorry
January 26, 2015
Okay found 750 ccs HP posted to doctors that's why I'm not seeing them not directly on your page. They look huge and fabulous and close amazing cleavage ☺ If you are looking for a more fake look like you mentioned to doctors I think you need internal bra, and overfilled saline implants. You could email Dr. Revis your pictures and your boobie idol pictures of what you want to look like and he can tell you what you need to achieve your goals his email address is on his website he replies quickly. But just my two cents your Boob's look amazing and huge ☺
User Avatar
January 26, 2015
Marcymodj...I think they look great as well! But if you want bigger and better...Dr. Revis is definitely your guy! Good luck!
January 26, 2015
Thank you platinumbarbie. I elk definitely check out his website. Best of luck to you.

December 24, 2014
Thanks ☺ I've considered putting up a tank top like I have on another forum JBI but it's not public no men can join or at least they try and keep them out ;) so I'm not comfortable posting pictures braless in tank tops I understand those would be most helpful :(
December 26, 2014
is ur name platinum barbie on jbi too i think men as perverted as they r will find some way to get on thats y i did not put up pics of mine
December 26, 2014
I like to think that they can go to hundreds of free [RS bleep] sites and picture than this site :) I just leave my face off.
December 26, 2014
Yes and most probably do but I'm not taking any chances ;)
December 26, 2014
I agree about men ;) I think safer too leave pictures at least no naked and lingerie,bra pictures I feel somewhat okay with my clothed one but it is showing cleavage which I never do in public I'm very conservative dresser ;) oh and yes that's me in picture the only one I have up on here ;)
December 26, 2014
dakota1020 this last post was for you it's getting confusing who it's posted too ☺
December 26, 2014
Interesting and neat to know that you're a conservative dresser. Big boobs but still classy!! =]
December 26, 2014
The way I dress raquelatex no one would guess I have 1050 ccs ;)
December 27, 2014
;-) how soon am i able to get a revision done?? =)
December 27, 2014
raquelatx every PS vairies from 6-12- months Revis told me I could 3months post op but I'm glad I've had too wait because now skin has stretched more so he can definitely fit in more ccs now ☺ Plus gives you time to see if you still want to upgrade. My Boob's actually got bigger little after my 1 year post op date so I'm definitely more happy now but still want 1700 ccs Lol darn boobie greed ;)
December 27, 2014
Yeah I think I may just wait 3 months. I'm impatient! I don't I'm sorry honey. I wish it was only me she disrespected.wanna go too crazy, just want around 600 CC's. I'm at 450 now. And I already know i want an upgrade. No questions there =]
December 27, 2014
raquelatx I'm confused? I don't understand your statement"I don't I'm sorry honey" and another statement I don't understand " I wish it was only me she disrespected?
December 27, 2014
OMG!!! Haha. That's was a text to my husband about my 20-year-old daughter. Somehow it copy and pasted!!! That's hilarious. Sorry about that.
December 27, 2014
Are yours high profile?
December 27, 2014
Lol no worries ☺
December 27, 2014
No I have Mod-Plus profile
December 27, 2014
But yours are hp right?
December 27, 2014
Sorry just saw this. How are mod-plus profile different than high profile?
December 27, 2014
Revis used mod-plus because I have a large bwd and with overfilled saline implants it's like having HP in silicone when overfilled and uhp if a lot overfilled. HP gives lot of projection and mod-plus gives width which I needed to close gap and gave me side Boob's as a benefit ☺
December 27, 2014
Wow... can you be my PS?? lol.. you know so much! what is bwd and uhp? what bra size are you again? height and weight? do you have any pictures at all.. even with clothes on? :)
December 28, 2014
Lol I've had too learn along the way otherwise you don't get what you want ;) Bwd is width from breast too breast I think I told you just call your PS he has it because they have special tools too measure it with so they know what profile you need and diameter of implants. I do have pictures I might put more up not really comfortable with it being a public forum don't want to be recognized by family or friends only my parents know about both of my BA's Lol Uhp is the highest projection profile implant and most projection especially with silicone because if you get really overfilled saline implants it's like uhp. I have a 750 shell overfilled too 1050 CCS I haven't been properly measured so not sure on actual bra size I know because my ribcage is 27.5 I'm supposed to wear a 28 bands at most 30 but I have scoliosis so painful to wear small band's I do have a 34G UK size US size I and I'm spilling over the top of bra so bigger than that size but I just live in a comfortable 40 band size sport's bra's Lol I'm 5'2 96- over 4 1/2 pounds from implants. Actually if you read my story all that information is there :)
December 28, 2014
Thanks so much!! I guess I can start with finding out all the numbers of how my body is right now before any future revisions, right?
December 28, 2014
Definitely ☺
