I'll be turning 30 here shortly and with that, I am getting a breast augmentation finally! I am 5'0 and weigh 104lbs and am hoping to have 425cc or 450cc (whatever my skin can handle) silicone- submuscular. I have been wanting this for myself for a long time, but have always been either too scared or felt selfish for spending that kind of money on myself. I went to a consultation in October with one of my friends and met Dr. Andrew Smith and his amazing staff and instantly felt comfortable! I tried on "my could be boobs" and was so happy! I always had what I thought to look like a boys chest... And when I saw myself with breasts, it was instant happiness. So I'm putting my fears...and money aside, and getting my breast augmentation!! I can't wait. I'm nervous and excited, but have full faith the Dr. Smith and his staff will be amazing. My friend and I are getting our surgeries 2 days apart from each other. Come summer, we'll be ready!

I am 15 days away from my surgery, and I almost feel like it's crunch time before a final exam. I'm looking at so many different BA before and after photos that I feel like they are all looking the same... And maybe even confusing myself more by doing this. I know what I want... But my fear (since I have no idea what to expect) is that it might not be what I want in the end... If that makes sense. I would hate to get 6 months down the road post op and think man, I should've gone a tad bigger. I hear that a lot from women. I've looked at women with the same cc's and body style as mine and I really like the moderate profile rather than the high profile. Any thoughts on the two? I can't wait for my pre op appointment....

I agree on profiles. Moderate is a little more natural. I am very thin like u. And the thing about round implants is, u go from a very thin body from your neck, passed your shoulders down to a large round boob. With shaped implants, at least you are getting somewhat of a transition. And you end up with a more naturally shaped breast. Some ppl like the cleavage they are able to have with high profile without wearing a bra. And if u like that look, go for it. But for what I personally like, it's too unnatural looking. I do have great cleavage with a bra.

Unless you have an unusually large breast width for your frame, you probably wont be able to do moderate profile. I am 5 feet 112 lbs, BWD 12, and at 400cc's high profile was my only option. Do you know your BWD? The diameter of the implant base shouldn't really be wider than your natural breast width, or you could end up with complications (symmastia, boobs in arm pits, etc.). I know that there are a lot of negative opinions about HP implants but depending on the person's dimensions and natural existing tissue they can look great! One of the most common comments that I get on mine is how natural they look. When is your pre op appointment? Keep us posted on what your PS says :). And don't ever feel guilty about this decision, you deserve it especially after breastfeeding 2 babies!!

My pre op appt is jan 6- next Tuesday. I'm sure at that appt he will measure me and I will ask him at that time about the high profile. From what it sounds like, i will probably end up with the high profile then because I really not that wide across. I'm pretty petite. I can't wait for that appt! My consultation was back in early October and at that time I was sure if I was really gonna go through with it. So I didn't talk about the different profiles or measurements. We mainly talked about the size I wanted to be. So January 6 is a big day. 1- it's my 30th b day! And 2- I finally get to pick my Dr's brain :)
I'll definitely post on Tuesday what we decide! Thanks for everyone's support and help!

Excited for you and mrsb. I told Andy, "listen when someone sees my Boobs I want them to think, nice [RS bleep]", and that's how we decided on size. Lol. My girlfriend said to me don't worry about them lookin like fake Boobs, first they are fake Boobs and second every women who wears a padded bra, which is like 95% of the world has fake boobs, the other 5% have implants. I have appointment in 3 weeks which will be your one week follow up. Looking forward to seeing your results.

So I'm 3 days away from my pre op appt and 10 days total from my big day! I'm getting so excited. I'm filling my next week with extra work and things to keep me occupied so the time can pass quickly. My husband was lucky enough to take family sick leave and vacation time so he can take care of my babies. I'm so lucky to be blessed with the man I have. He is supporting and encouraging my decision to do this ( what man wouldn't? Haha) and he is happy to take care of the kids and me while I'm down and out. I have to say reading everyone's journey helps so much!! The only surgery I've ever had was to have my wisdom teeth out under sedation haha. So I have nothing to go off of, and just reading everyone's post op experiences help. :) can't wait to be one of those girls that can help someone in my position!
