I'm pretty sure that whoever does the hiring for...

I'm pretty sure that whoever does the hiring for Dr. York Yates office only hires individuals that are nice, genuine and has a lot of patience. I thought maybe all these previous reviews were exaggerating a bit but there is no exaggeration at all. His staff has got it together.

As for Dr. York Yates, he's all good vibes. He's easy to talk to, honest and humble. And he really is an artist. I'm an artist and was skeptical about all the reviews insisting he's an artist. The first painting I saw at the entrance of his office is one of my favorite, La Scapigliata by Leonardo da Vinci. I was impressed but I was even more impressed with his personal paintings in the consultation room I was in. Now if he's left handed and a BYU fan, he's flawless.

Of course all of my questions came flooding in after consultation. He emailed me back every single time within a few hours. And when I emailed on the weekend, I got a response first thing Monday morning. He obviously cares about his patients and his staff equally care about his patients.

I'm about to hit puberty.

I'm thirty three years old and have been waiting since sixteen years of age for these things to grow and in a few hours it's actually going to happen!

I have been following/monitoring Dr. York Yates for about four years, I feel so good about this.

I'm a 34AA. I have been padding my bra up to a C cup for as long as I can remember. It never seemed weird to me to pad it up so much, I always felt like that was the size I was suppose to be.

I've made it crystal clear to Dr. Yates that I want to look completely natural. I think that's the beauty of plastic surgery, the results look natural. For the look I wanted Dr. Yates suggested anatomical 420 cc. It sounds like a lot of cc but he said it fits my body. I have broad shoulders and long torso. I don't know what cup size that will make me but by the look of it, I'm thinking a C cup. That's the size I was when I breastfed all my babies.

Just in case it helps anyone, here are my stats:
Height, 5 feet 8 inches
Weight, 140 pounds
Pre-op bra size, 34AA (my bust measures 33 inches)
Breast diameter, 15.5 cm

Breast Implant info:
Mentor Memoryshape (silicone)
Anatomical
Medium high profile
420cc
12.2 cm tall
13 cm wide
Inframmamary incision

And now... I need to sleep.

AM surgery

Surgery actually happened. I started to allow fear to creep in a little but then I thought of all you ladies and your success and that kept me in a positive state of mind.

While marking me up with blue sharpie, Dr. Yates kept telling me my implants will look amazing on me. That meant a lot to me, especially coming from him. And that put me at ease about the outcome.

Glenn was my anesthesialogist. He's served in the army with his skills, works in the hospital and works for Dr. Yates a couple days a week. I've never had anesthesia or surgery so I was most nervous about this. He gave me the best nap of my life! I didn't want to come out of it, I was so relaxed. And felt no nausea. The last time I had a nap that great was before my first child was born 10 years ago. Thank you Glenn.

My surgery was one hour long and recovery was about twenty five minutes long. Cute nurse Tanya got me ready wheeled me out while my husband pulled the car in by the enterance.

I came home and took some muscles relaxers and one pill of pain killer at noon.

Right now I only feel pressure and sometimes it feels like my pectoral muscles are flexing (my implants are placed under the muscle, sub muscular or sub-pectoral/dual plane). I just took some Ibeprophen to ease the pressure and swelling.

Bottom line, no pain just pressure. I was expecting the pain to be something like Mastitis and thank goodness it's nothing like it!

This photo was taken in recovery. I guess my hubby couldn't wait to to the goods, ha!
