Hi! So just want to give a little background info! I am 21, 5'3 and about 130-135pds, the past few years I have been gaining/losing. So any how, I thought that i was a 34C/D but since going to my first consult for a breast lift/implants I was told Victoria's Secret has been LYING to me! I am actually a 34B (I still don't know how accurate that is, I fill out a 34D and haven't been to VS since my first consult to confirm this so-called B cup I am)! Anyways, I have always been unhappy with my breast size or look. First I was completely flat chested and then when I turned 15 they popped out of nowhere, 34C (for sure), then by my senior year of HS I was a 34D, and stayed at that size until I lost about 20 pounds (which I am now supposedly a 34B, will confirm maybe this weekend!) So needless to say, with the weight loss my breasts sag a bit, causing my nipples to point in a downward angle (unattractive to say the least, to me!) I finally had the courage to see a professional about getting a lift/implants. The first doctor I saw recommended the following: Benelli lift (which would only leave a scar around my aerola, and would be touched up by tattoo to cover up the scar, however, I found out at my second appt with a different doctor how the procedure is actually done and could cause a tug-of-war over the year with my skin and aerola's and cause them to stretch over time -- yeah no way! but still doing research on it to confirm!) He suggested Allergan implants (which "supposedly" are the best, but from research they are just as good as Mentor, I think the only difference is one may be insured??) He suggested silicone implants (which is what I wanted anyways because I want a natural look and feel, I don't want someone to be able to say "those are fake!") He suggested smooth vs. textured, round, through armpit, below the muscle and 300-325cc (that would give me about a C/D cup) Now let's get to the nitty gritty... the price... it was about $11,500-$12,000 which disappointed me to say the least.
I went to my second consult with a different doctor that a co-worker had went to (who is very pleased with hers, shes in her third month of recovery i believe) but this doctor explained to me that the weight loss had cause my breasts to sag (go figure lol) his suggestions: Allergan, Silicone (270cc-290cc), Lollipop (which I'm a bit like ehhh about because of the scars, I haven't googled or looked on this site to see what they would look like a few months after or years even, but my big thing is how they look when I'm naked, so why would I want to see the scars... he said they would be very light but Im a little skeptical) he suggested textured vs. smooth because I am already prone to sagging and the textured implant will stick my muscle vs the smooth will progressively slide down. (not sure how accurate that is either) I don't remember if he said below or above the muscle, but I think he said above because I want the fullness. The price with this doctor was around $11,500 (with a discount smh) and again disappointed! I currently in Hawaii so I'm not sure if it's that expensive because the area I'm in or what. I know that silicone is more expensive, but damn! So I am currently contact other medical facilities that are CONUS to get an estimate I am more comfortable with. I am hoping to find a doctor that I like and make my decisions and appt for mid 2014.

So it's kinda sorta for sure that I have a Skype session next week with two doctors in the main land! Super excited! If I decide to go this route I will figure out the logistics of it all (plane tickets, leave etc) after! :)

Size!

So I've been talking to friends as well as profile stalking some girls on here to see which size might suit me BEST!
As I said previously in my first consult the PS recommended 300cc-325cc & the second consult recommended 290cc. And my friend said nothing less than 400cc! Which IMO is huge! But I don't want to be disappointed with my size after the swelling goes down and they fall. So... Decisions decisions & can't wait for my consult via Skype next week!
