So I have had the same little boy chest since I was 13 years old. Every fe,ale in my family has at least a D cup and I'm rockin' itty bitty [RS bleep]. I have always had a smaller waist & a bubble butt, but no breast. I'm ready to do this but I have lots of fears. I have had 3 consultations and have 3 more scheduled. Both surgeons were very nice, informative and seem to have a lot of experience. 2 surgeons said I need to have a lift to bring my nipples up, 1 surgeon said it was not needed. I want a full C small D cup. I don't want my nipples touched at all. I don't know if they really need a lift or not. Maybe someone here could tell me. I'm a nurse and my very first patient experience (13 yrs ago) was a breast augmentation gone wrong. Did a dressing change on the patient and her nipples came off (with lots of green drainage) with the dressing change. So I'm terrified of my nipples being touched. I have a lot to think about, but would really like some input.

Final consultation done
Had a final consultation with another PS. I believe this will be the physician that I'm going to go with. He has all the credentials that I'm looking for, years of experience, personable, but most of all very genuine and caring. I'm discussing details with my husband. I hope to pay my deposit and set the date soon.

Thank you for starting your journey on RealSelf! Have you shared your plans with your large breasted family? :) Glad to hear you may have found your PS. Did this PS say you needed a lift? Let us know if you schedule a date for surgery!

Thank you BethH,
My family supports my decision for BA. My husband continues to tell me I don't need it, but he supports my decision. The PS I went to yesterday said I did not need a lift. I wanted to schedule my surgery for next month, but I'm not sure yet. I'm going on vacation in August so I'm trying to figure out the timing.

If you're going to have an active vacation, maybe you could put it off until after your trip? Just a thought!

What do you do if you find a negative review for the surgeon you have been leaning toward? I found 2 negative reviews about 4 years old & 12 years old. Neither were for breast augmentation, but idk if I should let those reviews make my decision.

It would depend on what the negative reviews were about. You can get a feel for weather or not it could pertain to you, or if its more of an opinion that someone had that was petty. However no negative reviews would be favorable. Keep looking, I've noticed that photos I have seen of boobies freshly done, many girls look all bruised up! My surgeon was super gentile, I didn't have any bruising at all. He truly is an artist and came highly recommended by others in the medical world. Call the hospital and ask Whitney send their breast cancer patients to most often. That's a great place to start your search for a reputable surgeon.
