I've lost some weight and with that loss, have also lost my breast size and shape. I have always been a bit too heavy, but I believe I am now a full C and would like to stay that way, except have some perkiness and fullness. So I have a consult next week for a lift and small implants. What are some important questions to ask? Any help is appreciated

Well I had a consultation with Dr. Smoot and have decided to schedule my surgery for February 23, 2017. I will be doing a lift with a saline implant of 275, but may look at 300. Suggestions?? It sounds like forever away, but I know it will be here soon. Deposit is paid. I plan to start shopping for sports bras and getting everything in line. This forum has been the biggest help!! If anyone has a favorite or even a sports bra they wouldn't recommend please advise!

May I ask what size you are now? I'm also from Lake Charles, 36 years old with 2 kids. I had my consultation with Dr Smoot a few days ago and he suggested either 200cc or 275cc saline implants with a lift. I'm a small 36b right now and I don't want to go too big or too small. I'm leaning towards 275cc but getting a second opinion in Lafayette on Jan 31

Tomorrow is the big day! Pre-op was today. I am having a lift with saline implants. We decided on 280 cc's and possibly 300 if they can fit. I got all my meds filled and I think everything is together! Nervous as can be, but super excited. Will post when I am able! See you all on the other side.

Got home about 2 hours ago. Not much pain right now, just took a dose of meds. They gave me pain meds, muscle relaxer and phenerghan through iv before I left which was around noon. Haven't seen them yet, but tomorrow I will. I have drains!

I'm having pain, it started as soon as l left. The gave me Percocet, I've taken 4 in the last 4 hours. I didn't take the muscle relaxer yet, saving that for night. I think I'm going to get the Percocet replaced with something else. I'm suprised you're so coherent. I haven't been awake for longer than 5 min since I got home 3 hours ago.

I'm starting to feel some pain now. Just took pain, muscle relaxer and antibiotic. I slept a little since I've been home. The chair was too hard to get out of. So I moved to the couch. Have you seen yours yet?
February 24, 2017
I've not seen them yet, super excited for tomorrow! Have you took a peek?
February 24, 2017
I tried to peek but couldn't really see anything. Soon I will see. My appointment is at 8:15. How was your night?
February 24, 2017
I can only see the very tops which are super hard and round. I slept sooo well. My husband propped a bunch of pillows up behind my back and under my arms for support. I only had to get up and take more pain meds one. I have my appointment at 8:00, hopefully I can see them for the first time. How did you sleep?
February 24, 2017
Slept like a rock. Propped up on the couch. Not ready to attempt my bed, it's kinda high.
