I have been thinking of getting a breast Aug for awhile now but it wasn't something that I dwelled on, it was actually kind of a spur of the moment thing to where I thought, "you know what! I'm sick of this and I'm going to do something about it!!" And a month later I had my consult and set my up my appointment for my operation.
I chose may the 25th so it would give me enough time to ask off of work (bc if you're smart that's first priority, no job, no money, no money, no boobs). That also worked well with my schedule as I was off that Friday and the following Monday would be Memorial Day and I HATE asking off so I wanted to take as less days as possible. If all goes well I should return to work a day shy of one week which falls on a Tuesday.
At my consult he took me to a room and let me watch a video about the procedure and then took me into another room where they had sports bras and silicone sizers and basically I just stuffed the bra until I was happy with that size. Now I will say that I have read that most people go alllll the way up until they say "nope, too big" and the size down from that is the perfect size for you. I on the other hand just tried on 2/3 sizes and picked the last one I tried on before he came back to the room because it seemed big enough.
My stats are 5'2 120lbs and he said my breast width was 13... (Whatever that means) I went with 350cc silicone moderate plus profile with an areola incision. Now I will say I did call him back and ask about 375cc and he suggested that I stick with what I have due to the lack of difference being one and also the fact that I would have to change my place of incision and it would be more likely to show since I have so little breast tissue to start with. I have a few starting pics and I will do my best to post after!!!!

Glad you got your schedule figured out. Maybe you could squeeze in one more day off just in case? ;) You're going with a nice, average sized implant so your recovery should ideally be smooth. Great idea to stick with the original size and incision too. Feel free to join the May 2016 breast augmentation surgery forum for some pre op support!

I will be having my surgery May 31st. I never thought picking a size would be so difficult. I'm going back and fourth. I first said 325cc. Now I am wanting at least 350cc. I'm 5'4 and 100lbs

If you have Instagram you could go follow Dr. Tavakoli all of his girls just about have around 300-375. They are anatomical but I think they still give you perspective. Also there is a forum on this site that's labeled something about 325cc and it lists a lot of girls with their story I actually saw a 325 mod plus last night and thought that they looked awesome!!
