Ive lost 80 pounds over the last two years, and while the experience has been good for my self esteem, it's also left me with a lot of sagging skin and deflated breasts. On top of the weight loss, I also had two full term pregnancies and breast fed one baby. I plan on also doing a tummy tuck, thigh lift, and BBL over the next year, however I decided the first procedure I wanted was a breast lift and augmentation.
I had one consult with a doctor who lived closer to me in New England, but he had limited experience with extra large implants, which is what I eventually want. I decided to do internet research on who the best docs were for xl breast implants, and whose lifts I really liked (as many end up with an unfortunate square bottomed shape I find unappealing). The doc I found whose work and reputation seemed impeccable was Dr. Don Revis. I now have surgery scheduled for Jan. 8th, and I could not be more excited. He's answered my every question with kindness, warmth, and best of all, speed! I feel completely confident that aside from the typical surgery risks, I have the best chance for a desirable outcome with him.

I thought I should include current breast pictures, as I appreciate seeing others before and after photos. I'm 5'9, 195 lbs, and I wear sz 14 pants and sz 12 tops, and my current bra size is 38DD - though as you'll note, that DD is compromised of two floppy pancakes that I basically drop into well shaped bra cups :(

Good luck

Thanks so much, it sounds like we're going for similar amounts of cc's! Do you mind if I ask if you're going for moderate or high? I'm hoping 600 will be at least a DD on me, though I'm assuming I'll go back for a larger implant in the next couple years (ultimately id like 800-1000). Good luck with your surgery too, I can't wait to read your updates!

I can't believe how happy I am - it's almost here! On Sunday I fly to FL, Tuesday is my pre-op, Wednesday is SX, and Thursday is post-op, then back home on Saturday :) I hope I feel okay flying that soon after surgery, but if nothing else I'm sure some pain medication will get me through.
Thankfully my boyfriend is going with me, so he'll be taking care of me during recovery and helping me out on the way back - I can't imagine how much harder this would be if I had to do the whole thing by myself.
I have to say, I'm getting a little nervous about the pain. Seven years ago I had lipo on my arms, chin, thighs, and knees, and I remember being incredibly uncomfortable for several days afterward. I remember though that one of the hard parts was that it felt like everywhere on my body was painful and covered in gauze - at least this time it will just be my breasts!
I have to admit, I'm already looking into Docs for my next go round - TT and BBL! Hopefully next summer....
If any other ladies are having lifts around the same time, I'd love to hear from you and follow your stories - it would be great to have buddies to share the experience with :)
