Had These Puppies for 8 Years Now and Couldnt Be Happier!

So at the age of 19 i had birthed and breastfed...

WORTH IT$5,500
So at the age of 19 i had birthed and breastfed two children. My body was fine but my breasts, not so much. While nursing i was an engorged D from a small B so you can imagine how pancakey and deflated my breasts looked after. Well you dont have to. I posted pictures.
So i decided to get my breasts done because my hatred of the ones i had was affecting my every day life and relationship in a massive way. Yea, maybe i shouldn't be so vain but i just didnt feel sexy and was so uncomfortable in my skin.
So i came up with the money and went to Imaage here in Louisville. Dr. Haas would not give me the humongous boobs i wanted but we went up to 500 cc saline (it was cheaper and silicone wasnt legal in the states yet and was only available to a select few through a study if you were over 21 and i was not).
So the surgery and healing went great. My breasts looked positively silly immediately following. I was super skinny and my skin was tight as heck over these large implants. When i just went back recently and seen the pics he asked the nurse if i had had a hematoma in one of them after surgery lol. They didnt look at all nice.
But after a month they started the drop and fluff and looked pretty amazing a couple months after.
Then i got pregnant and 8 years later and 30 pounds up they look real and pretty dern good.
Im going back for a panniculectomy and lipo so i thought why not get the big boobs i wanted initially since i have the skin now. So we are going up to 750. So i will be one and a half times the breast size i am now.
So i will keep you updated because those surgeries are happening in two weeks on the 7th. But overall im happy with my realistic looking and feeling DD saline implants that ive had for almost a decade. They changed my life and gave me confidence in my clothes and naked i never thought i would have.
Doctor Haas is a great doc with middle of the road pricing and a great location in every way. Also no hospital fees. Totally recommend.

Hello! Your before pic looks similar to what I'm working with. Did your doc recommend you get a lift as well or was he pretty sure implants would suffice? I am borderline life but thinking of going with the implants for now but don't want to have bad results..

Well since I was going from about 500cc to 750cc it was going to be more than enough to fill the breast tissue and they are still a bit tight 6 weeks later. So really it has to do with what your plan is. If you want bigger and fuller breasts implants may suffice, but if you already had a lot of breast tissue (bigger breasts) that have sagged a lot I'm not really sure. I was never blessed with that issue. Pre surgery I was barely a B cup. My implants were great until after my next pregnancy. But no a lift was never even discussed. Implants filled everything out more than enough. Hope I helped some.

Did you do high profile? I can hardly fill a b cup currently, just have mild ptosis due to breastfeeding. I am hoping to let my surgeon know that I desire just implants for now. I was thinking 375 to 400 cc is the most I can get away with, hopefully that's enough. Thanks so much for your advice! ❤️

Hate my old title. Idk what I was thinking, also seen flaws in photos. Had revision.

I had a revision planned when I posted my review because Dr Haas refused to give me Pam Anderson breasts because my 19 yr old body was too small and I didn't have enough skin.
They ended up having what looked and felt like a double bubble situation, and I wanted them larger after 8 years. I also wanted silicone since I wasn't allowed to have it before because I wasn't yet 21, and that was the law.
Anyway, I went up from a D to a DD and I believe they now look more symmetrical without so much of the double bubble. They are also silicone, so no water balloon feel at the double bubble.
I'm heavier now at 33, so they fit better with my current skin and body as well.
It's been 5 years and I like them a lot better.
I also had a panniculectomy during my second surgery that I had to beg him for because he said I should get to my goal weight despite not being able to get any smaller from running 7 days per week for 3 miles per day for 5 months. I also requested lipo. It was terrible. Not one change happened from either except fat cells growing under my chin.
I wouldn't go back to Dr. Haas. He's just all I could afford in Louisville at the time. He's retired now after selling Imaage and going to what seems to be Mia Aesthetics before retirement.
Now, I'm scheduled for a 360 lipo and bbl in Miami next month provided I get medical clearance tomorrow. It's totally different having to get medical clearance, a battery of tests, and asking doctors here to prescribe pain meds for a doctor in another state who's doing the actual surgery. So, I will be going without pain meds.
I will post a review of that when it's over.
