These blogs helped me so much I wanted to write down my experience.

I think I have always been very confident, but part of being confident is being well aware of your strengths and weaknesses. Mentally and physically. I work in the service industry in vegas and I have always been aware that I have a nice body but when it comes to my boobs I need to do all sorts of tricks to get them looking good. The corsets and outfits are flattering when I work at it, wearing three bras and stuffing but I notice it stings when people compliment you and they are complimenting all the things you are faking. (Eyelashes, boobs, clinched waist, hair extensions, nails, smile cause I've had braces. ) I just see that a little bit of effort goes a long way. "There are no ugly women. Just lazy ones. "

So after being scared of surgery, not sure if I want to spend the money, talking myself out of it, I'm finally fdoing it.

I asked around and found a doctor who is reputable. At the initial consultation he told me what I already knew. that my boobs are a little tuberous, sagging, and set wide apart and small. All of these things are hidden when I pull all my tricks to make them look better, but at the end of the day when I get naked I know the truth and I want them to be nice for real. Not just when I dress up.

He said he understood and knew what I wanted.

I pulled together the financing, my boyfriend cosigned for me. Then I booked the date. I went for my blood tests and had surgery in a few days.

This is where I was thrown a curve ball. I got my test back and it revealed I was anemic. My iron stores were very low. Too low to operate.

My surgery was cancelled.

They said I needed to see a blood specialist and that would accumulate more doctors fees and I was just not going to spend the time and money to have someone do what I can deduct on my own.

I rescheduled my surgery and started taking
ironpills.

After three weeks I took my new blood test Wednesday and got my results yesterday. I'm good to go!

My surgery is Tuesday and I'm scared to death. I'm scared of hospitals so I'm putting myself in my worst nightmare.

My doctor and I didn't decide on how many cc's. I just told him I don't want to be a D, and I like the full round "upper pole" and kinda want it like that all the time. I don't care about natural, I just want sexy. I am 5"3 115 lbs, my rib cage is very small and I am athletic, I want boobs that I don'thave to be buying a lot of specialty clothing for. (Who makes a 32D? No one sold offline)

Everyone knows and everyone is supportive.

Good luck! I know surgery can be scary, but it's over before you know it! It goes by soooo fast. You fall asleep, and then it seems like a minute later, you are awake and have boobs! Easier said than done, but try not to worry about it :)

To give you an idea of what I'm working with. Ugh I have never really taken a hard look at them until recently. I do a really good job of not letting my boobs get me down. Its been a life time lesson in self acceptance.

I was an akward plain looking adolecent. I have come a long way. So I struggled with "why now" and "will this improve my quality of life or is it all in my head? " I thought about how much the 3 years I spent in braces improved my quality of life and I felt sure I was making the right decision.

I am so careful to not allow unflattering photos of myself online, so this is weird for me posting these photos. I am happy for the anonymity.

Honey, Join the awkward in adolescence club:) Sounds like me..lol. Chin up, head high, look yourself in the mirror and be confident in everything you are doing for YOU! No one else needs to be happy with your body, but you do. I once I had a boyfriend in the 9th grade tell me- "You would be pretty if you would get your teeth fixed." Now I'm 33, I model, have had braces, kick ass makeup, highlights, and more, and I'm finally getting my boobs done. So what, they can't touch me now..lol. I think self acceptance is always a journey. Self improvement is a way of life. It is seeing yourself for what you could be, then changing to meet that ideal picture of yourself. Then if that changes down the road, so be it. We are constantly changing. And that's a good thing:)

Cheers to that. There is no problem with self improvement. I think fewer people question my motives because they all know I wouldn't be doing this unless it was for me and me only. Now I'm going to use it as an excuse to throw a party. After surgery Boobie Shower!

Some Specifics

User Avatar

I decided to go with High Profile Saline Subpectoral. The incision is going to be through the nipple because he is going to perform a lift as well. So I will have a "doughnut" type scar.

I want the round and high look and I am not too concerned with looking "fake".

I didn't discuss any specific cc's with my doctor so I'm really just trusting him. I am trying to not get too caught up in cup sizes because I know a C in one brand can be a B in another brand. That stuff can make me crazy.

My boobs are very far apart and my nips point out towards the sides, not to the front. My doctor and several friends have warned me there is not much you can do about these things. After the implants your boobs will still be your boobs, only bigger. You can't do a lot about shape and distance apart. If anything the surgery could magnify these issues. He did say he would do what he could.

I'm having all the same freak out second thoughts that I see in almost every review on this site. My main freak out is, Should I have gone with silicone instead of saline??

My other freak out is wondering what to do in preparation for the week I'll be the most helpless. what foods do I want around, and I should probably clean before so that I'm not tempted to clean while I'm drugged up. I have no idea what to wear the day of surgery. A girlfriend said I'll be freezing when I wake up so wear some sweats and a hoodie. I guess I should have bags of frozen peas to use as ice packs. What else?

Also I am terrified to be left alone at all during the first few days. Is this rational? Should I make sure someone is home at least for the first 48 hours?

Any other advice for what to do to prep for surgery?

Why did you choose saline? And as for post-op, I think you should have someone either checking on you, or someone nearby you can call. Have someone around if at all possible (the BF?). There's just a lot of times you'll want to have someone get you something or open something. Like when you just got settled in bed but you forgot to take your antibiotic. Or when you need to open a jar or the door handle is sticking. You know what I mean. When you wake up they usually have warm blankets to put on you because most people do shake and shiver as the anesthesia leaves the system (I did). If you're going to be alone just make sure to take the pills out of the bottle beforehand (it hurts really bad to do the whole, 'press down and twist' thing).

That is exactly the advice i was looking for. I never would have thought about the strength you take for granted to open child lock bottles. The boyfriend will be home with me but needs to be away from the house for about 3 hours that same afternoon. So I am thinking of having a friend come over during that time just in case but I wasn't sure if I was being silly. I chose saline because I have a few close friends with saline and I really like their boobs. They are about my size and build before surgery. My sister has silicone and wishes she did saline, and my grandmother has saline and her boobs still look amazing 45 years later. I asked my doctor if I had enough tissue to have good looking saline implants and he said I did because I'm not going too large. What do you think?

Why does your sister wish she had saline? Thanks.

I think they'll look good- the main difference, I'm told, is in how they feel to the touch. Also silicone implants these days have a lower likelihood of rupture I believe. But I know you could be happy with either. I personally like the squishiness of silicone but I've never actually touched saline implants in the body!

And I wouldn't worry about 3 hours. You can just nap during that time (and you'll def want to nap a lot especially if you're on Percocet like I was)

My co workers let me feel theirs up and they were soft, both pairs were years old, not new. Nice and jiggly. Even side by side they were soft and I couldn't feel the difference. I was told you can only get that result if you have enough tissue. Otherwise there is more of a hard vs firm feel. I do worry about rupture but I think that is luck of the draw. Like I said, no problems for gramma in 45 years but my 24 test old girlfriend with two year old breasts hadone deflate

She thinks hers would be rounder and more stand alone. We both like that look more than the natural "can't tell if she got a boob job" look.

I thought I responded to this? She thinks it would make them rounder and perkier. We like the push up bra all the time look.

Good luck!!! You def have a lot of tissue for saline but they probably won't feel as nutural and if they deflate you have to find money to replace them right away . I wanted saline I still kind of do but these issues stop me and plus I have no breast tissue to begin with lol

I read your review yesterday! All the stuff about chemicals and all that, that's the stuff I think about. Saline feels "safer" and I've had so many people agree with me. I'm not worried about replacement in case of a rupture, though it sounds horrible. It happened to my close friend. I think my existing breast tissue will allow it to feel more natural. If I was going D I would change my mind and get the gummies.I think you are making the right call though!

Oh, to go with silicone. If My doctor said I didn't have enough tissue I would have gone w silicone.
