Finally! And only three months away..

I met Dr Rezai last month and as soon as my credit card came through, booked for November!

I'll be having my surgery @ Highgate Hospital in London.

The only question is size. He suggested 350cc Mentor HP. I'm worried it will be too big and that I won't get a natural slope. Edging more towards 250cc - 300cc MP+ but I'll only really be able to decide at my next appointment in November.????????????

Hello there! I have the same desired results as you with a natural slope as opposed to the roundness in the upper pole. For that reason, my Dr suggested Mentor moderate profile. High profile would give you more roundness up top. Though, I think if you are getting them placed under the muscle, it might not be as high. If you are going over the muscle, moderate would be better for that natural slope. I think I am going to choose 350cc as well. That's about has much as I can go with my build/frame and still look natural. Good luck :)

Aah and you're only 5 weeks out! You must be so excited! Every time I try and look at your review it jumps back to mine for some reason, probably a glitch with RealSelf. I'll keep trying

Yes. 5 weeks! Yikes. I'm new to this site as far as navigating and all...hopefully that glitch works out. I will try and add more, post updates to my review. It's been so useful that others have been so good about doing that. Your 3 months will be here before you know it. An early Christmas present for you :)

Went I went to the initial consult, my Dr gave me 250, 300 and 350cc to try. I think I was in boob shock and was like leaning towards 250 or 300, but after reading all the stories and seeing before and after, 250 seems non-existent...why bother?! When I go back for the pre-op consult, I'm going to request 350 and hope for the best. They will be placed over the muscle, so I don't want to go too big, but also want to be worthwhile.

Hi there! Good luck on your upcoming surgery!!! 350cc will not be big... If anything you might want to go larger. Please check out my review. I was a flat A before surgery and 325/350cc HP gave me a 34B cup! Now I'm wanting to revise and go larger (at least a C cup). I encourage you to try on sizers and go up one size from what you like the look of cause they look smaller once under the muscle. Best of luck and hope that you get the results that you desire. xx

Thank you! How different was the sizer compared to your actual result? 350cc HP felt enormous on me x

Honestly, they look way smaller. The 350's look like 300's when under the muscle. Go bigger of whatever size you like the look of. Good luck :)

I tried them on in a loose sports bra and they looked huge but they are really compact on my chest and not the bouncy breasts that I imagined.

Hi! I had a consultation with Dr Rezai back in February found him fantastic! Am struggling to tie down a op date due to 2 young kids and a busy schedule. Interested to follow your story, he suggested 350cc high profile mentor for me too and I'm a similar shape to you. Have you decided to go with 350cc? Did he suggest under the muscle for you too?
September 4, 2016
Hey lilw77, I'm swaying more towards 300cc mp+. I've looked at so many reviews with HP and in just worried I'll have too much upper pole. As with 300cc, I'm just worried that will be a bit too big! I will be going under the muscle. Are you looking for a date next year now?
September 4, 2016
Im very torn between the 350cc and 300cc. I trust his expertise and he said that I could still get the natural look that I want with 350 but I'm still not sure. I would rather regret not going bigger than regret not having them smaller. Yes I think I'll have to put back till January, I've not set a date with him yet. It's really difficult for me as I don't want to tell anyone, I wear triple padded bras since having my son a year ago, after BF for a month I literally have nothing left! It's a case of finding the time where I can have my inlaws or my mum watch the kids for a week without giving it away, I dont think she'd agree with me having it.

Hi
I had a consult with Dr R but he could not fit me in as I had specific dates that I needed to work with. You are in good hands though from all my research!

I had my surgery with another highly regarded surgeon 5 days ago. My review shows me before and post. I ended up with 300cc. I let the surgeon make the decision on the day. We had 3 sizes ( all moderate profile) 275, 300 and 330. I wanted a natural look with not too much In The upper pole to avoid that fake look. I had overs also. I gave my surgeon pictures of results I liked which he took into theatre with him and which he used with the sizers to get me the look I wanted. Whilst it's early days and I am swollen I am really happy with the result and the shape and profile thus far.
Good luck with your surgery - it's very exciting and I could not wait for mine once the date was settled!

Pre Op done

Went into London for my pre-op yesterday. Decided on 275cc MP+ under the muscle. Cohesive 1.

250cc was too small & anything larger would have been too wide for my chest. HP looked a bit too fake for me.

Less than two weeks to go, I bought a 45 degree angle wedge pillow and a piece of memory foam to fit on top. I'll upload photos of the bra I found soon, too.

Exciting! You must be counting the days now. Keep posting and keep well. Cannot believe mine are nearly 3 months old- feel like they have been with me forever!!
November 13, 2016
So close now!! I'm excited to see your results, I'm wondering if I should go with mod+?? So confused
November 13, 2016
Suppose it depends on what you prefer? The HP was too obvious for me

Good luck..cant wait to see your results..wishing u all the best on your day hun!! Lol my turn is april
June 13, 2018
Your results look great! Could you please tell me what your base width diameter pre-surgery was? I'm looking to do the 275cc MP+ as well (in my smaller breast), but my PS measured my BWD at 11.0 cm, and the width of the 275cc is 11.7 cm...hoping it's not too wide for me! Thanks!

Operation complete

I got to the hospital at 7am yesterday, surgery about 8am and back in my room just after 10am.

I was most worried about being put to sleep but it was actually fine and felt really nice to wake up. Lots of naps since then.

I'm very tight, not heavy like a lot of people describe but sore, a sharpish pain and not too different from a really heavy chest work out. The more I move the more it hurts, and I can't stand up for too long.

Will post photos soon, haven't had a chance to look myself! But they don't feel weird, just feel like mine and normal.

They also don't look very big right now but I can feel them all the way up in my armpits
