I've been interested in in having breast augmentation surgery for quite some time now. I've always been unhappy with my breasts since I was a teenager. My left breast was smaller than my right, and I hated the way they appeared in t-shirts. I would look in mirrors and the first area of my body that would stand out would be my chest - it looked weird to me, although no one else probably noticed.
I would talk to my mom about it, and like all mothers, she would encourage me and tell me to just have patience and that they would eventually even out and grow. Negative. To this day I remain a 34A, and now that I'm in a solid position where I can afford it, I'm going for it!
I met with Dr. Aisha McKnight-Baron after a disappointing consultation with another plastic surgeon, and I could not have had a better consultation experience! She was very knowledgeable as well as kind and helpful!
Upon making it to her office, within 10 minutes, I was placed in a holding area. She entered the room, and I immediately felt a sense of comfort. We discussed why I was there and what I've experienced with my breasts. We also discussed what my expectations were and her suggestions. She explained the information very well, and it was definitely more like a conversation.
After that I was placed in a room where I undressed and she took pictures of my chest area from different angles. She also took some measurements and explained to me that I had tuberous breast deformity in my left breast. I had heard of the condition, but didn't think it was what I had... So it was good to hear that from someone professional. She also explained what it was and how she could help to correct it. Dr. Baron also helped me try on the bra and sizers so that we could determine a good, natural-looking size for my implants. We settled on 350cc that could increase since my breasts are two different sizes. I'm thinking about going up to 400, but I'm not sure yet.
After the fun part of trying on the sizers, I proceeded to speak with someone about pricing for all implant options. As of right now, Allergan Smooth Round is my choice, and I'm so excited!
The entire experience with Dr. McKnight-Baron from beginning to end was amazing! She made me feel so comfortable, was sincere, compassionate, professional and extremely helpful in my decision. My surgery date is the day before Thanksgiving, and I can't wait!

Thank you! I'm definitely thinking higher as far as numbers are concerned. If not 400cc, I think 375cc will be my happy medium :)

What I Look Like Now & Wish Pics - Hoping For Full C after Surgery

So, here is what I look like now at 34A. I'm so excited about this surgery. I would love to be a full C after surgery, although I know it's not totally guaranteed after they drop and fluff.

That left breast has been and eyesore to me since high school. Padded bras have been my best friends for the longest time. I've read several posts here of successful surgery of tuberous breast deformity, so I'm looking forward to seeing my breasts be a little bit more even.

Here are my wish pics! I just love Kelly Rowland's size after her augmentation! Dr. Baron and I discussed 350cc which may increase depending on how much she wants to use in the left breast. I want a very natural look, but I'm thinking about going up to 400cc. I keep hearing that the implants will look smaller when placed under the muscle, so I'm thinking bigger may be better in this case... But I don't want it to look like "BAM! In your face!" Decisions... Decisions.

29 days until surgery! Question for all of you into Fitness...

I can finally say that I'm under a month away from surgery. The week of Thanksgiving cannot get here quick enough! This website has been so great in the meantime; I've read many reviews and tips here, so I have a pretty good understanding of what to expect. I'm so excited for the day to come.

Now I'm still stuck on the size. I know the title mentioned 350ccs, but I'm thinking that may be too small. I have a 140lb small frame with broad shoulders, so I'm thinking going up to 375 in the right and 400 in the left (since it's smaller) wouldn't hurt. My pre-op appt is on Nov. 10th, so hopefully after trying the sizers on again I'll feel better about those numbers. We shall see.

So for all of you ladies that are into fitness, train heavily, teach aerobics classes or even compete professionally... Were you definitely back in the gym at or around 3 weeks post-op? I workout heavily 4-5 days a week, and although it'll be tough not working out for that long, I know it's best to rest. I know any heavy lifting of the chest and maybe the shoulder muscles will be out of the question for a while, but how soon were you able to do cardio aerobics classes, teach a class or get back into heavy lifting?
