Hey ladies! So I've been on RealSelf for a year...

Hey ladies! So I've been on RealSelf for a year now just reading the stories & basically just doing tons of research here & everywhere else.
Well I can finally say that I can now share my own story!! in hopes that it will help ease your concerns and nerves while hopefully doing this could even ease my mind too. So I did it, I have locked my surgery date in for August 11th and it feels so surreal to me and I'm nervous about the surgery.
I went for my consultation on April 21st at Dr Tehranis office in Great Neck, NY. I felt excited and confident choosing him. He does beautiful work and Im with the more natural look so that's what Im aiming for. We were both in agreement on my body type what would look proportionate and the size and shape was all so easy because what I had wanted is what he would've recommended for me so it worked out for the best and made me pretty excited and hopeful.
We agreed Im getting the sientra anatomical textures implant under the muscle with 300ccs in my right breast and 350ccs in my left bringing me from an A cup to a full C.

Oh ok so I'll be going in first ahh. I'm so nervous too and it's all I think about. I bet you can't wait to be on the other side :) I worry a lot and it has been mentally exhausting Lol I'll be following your journey as well! Also I've thought about the pain too & ive never taken pain killers before so I'm a bit nervous about that not knowing how I'll react on them. Anyway something good is that hey!

Ahhh I know!! Thanks for checking up on me I've been MIA for a while on here & Im so so nervous. I was actually going to write an update since my surgery is so close but I couldn't find the words to express all of these different emotions lol I'm excited most of all, sad in a way about losing my small boobs, nervous as all hell, a lot of "what ifs " going through my mind lol. I can't wait to be in bed relaxing trying to recover already.
August 9, 2016
Im so with you im actually getting not so nervous about the pain and more nervous about the surgery itself..and sad that i cant eat for so long lol
August 10, 2016
I can't believe our surgery is tomorrow!! how are you feeling about it? do you have everything you need? It was the first thing that came to mind when I woke up this morning. I am nervous about the surgery itself too aand the whole journey lol just everything. I hope its like what a lot of people say that they got worked up for no reason.
August 10, 2016
Definately nervous but ive heard its more of a tightnesss/uncomfortable pain like someone standing on your chest. I can handle that! I need to grab straws other than that i hope i have everything.
August 10, 2016
Yea i've heard that too but I also heard some people are in pain but every ones different, I can definitely say I can handle the tightness and discomfort too. I still have a few things to get but nothing crazy. I hope everything goes awesome tomorrow for you and me both lol
August 12, 2016
Hey everything went way better then I expected! I was the first patient of the day, everything went smooth and quick, cried some happy tears when I awoke lol so glad to be more symmetrical. It's been tolerable so far just a lot of tightness and hard to breathe with some soreness but I've been keeping on top of the pain medicine, overall I'm so happy I did it! How about you? I can't wait to see your results too! I have a strap and a surgical bra, not allowed to fully see them until Monday for post op
August 12, 2016

Trying on sizers
About a month ago now I tried on sizers at Dr Tehranis office and I was honestly surprised within the first few minutes of trying on the sizers I felt really self confident and proportioned and i wish I could've taken the sizers home lol Imy doctor recommended getting textured implants and I've heard they're more firm.. Idk I'm on the fence about it, does anyone have textured implants that have any regrets ?

I'm not sure exactly where you're at in your process but I have textured implants and I love them! I have two videos to help women out like yourself get more of an idea since I myself had a really hard time researching and finding videos. I'll tell you this though-they do take longer to settle/drop/soften compared to smooth. Not sure if it's a combo of not massaging as wel as them just needing to adhere to the tissue but that's one thing I did notice so just make sure you're patient (:

I mine as well get this over with..
So this is my before picture, I was going to post it after the surgery was done so i can have both the before and after look but I figured it would help for you guys to see what I'm working with here lol.
Also, this is a little embarrassing to me posting my small uneven boobies on the Internet haha
This was at my PS office.. I'll have to take pics on my own of all different angles.
