WORTH IT$6,700
I had my first BA at 21 years old due to the unfortunate fact that I had tuberous breasts that were also almost 2 awkwardly shaped cup sizes different (left was barely an A cup, right was almost a C)....its been 12 years and I am dealing with rippling of course, but more so my aggravation is the huge space in between..these things swing out to the sides like crazy lazy eyes, as well as, when I lay down they disappear off into my armpits! I have ZERO upper pole fullness and find myself stuffing my bra on a regular basis (annoying, considering I paid to have these things!).....I was relieved at my consult appointment to learn that, in his words, "a lift will do nothing for you"...one, because I dont want those scars, and two, because I wouldnt be able to afford it if a lift was needed. To my surprise, he told me I could easily go the max of 800cc...I do have another consult set to discuss this further, so in the meantime, just here to get some professional and personal opinions on size...Also, not sure how he plans on correcting the "boobage side swing" problem. I shouldve asked, but of course didnt think of it at the time:/ Excited, but concerned.

Ya, you go for it. But 800 cc just seems tremendous, but I don't know.
Did you try on those sizes how people do. Best of Luck whatever you decide.

Hi, thankyou for your comment!...I tried on sizes at the consult, but it is so difficult to tell what its going to look like when you already have implants in..What I did was put in the additional cc's that would make it 700-800 on top of my existing ones, but it was so lopped out to the side and off center, I just couldnt wrap my head around it. Also have tried the rice sizers, its just ridiculous looking because my current girls are so far off to the sides that I cant get a clear picture of what it may look like.

Can't he show you some pictures. When I was young you went to the plastic surgeon. He said I can see your problems by the dress you've chosen. You could be a D. So I became a 34D. I was pretty flat. Maybe, a B. Just Maybe. ANyhow, then as years passed, the present PS said this is silicone you need to have them changed to saline. SO he removed the silicone in many pieces and then for one week I had sad looking breasts.
Stretch out skin with no umph. So I said OK put D back in. That has been the only redoe thing. Now, I see people know sizes projections hi profile, I don't even know what to say. I love the tear drop look. So stunning. I am about the same size as you in high and about 160 lbs. Very tall, I think. But 800 cc
under the breast muscle, I don't think people will ever see your
face. their eyes will dart right to the gigantic breasts. you will
be the final rule. Don't let anyone tell you not me, not anyone.
If you want people to say, MA Ma Me A. then 800 but if you want them to say Wow, what a great shape, then 550 is plenty to make you a d to dd. Let us know, it's been fun, hasn't it
thinking about what we want our bodies to look like. Once again, just my opinion of life.

Hey there! Just wanted to ask your opinion on my results. Your comment above in December was so thoughtful, and meant a lot. And I am honestly curious as to what you think. I was terrified of 800cc, thought it would make me look cartoonish and top heavy. I did end up following my surgeon's advice and going with 750cc. I am surprised, and pleased at how NOT huge they are. Anyways, thank you for any input you might have:) this journey, and sharing with others has def been fun:)
December 28, 2015
Good luck!!! Hope it all goes well & you get exactly what you want! That size should look amazing on you :)
December 28, 2015
Thank you! It seems like so many PS on here are against the large implants (700 and up), and now I am having major second thoughts on going that large...ugh, I dont know, I dont want to end up having neck problems and issues with thin skin in 5 years. Then again, I dont want to regret not trusting that my PS knows what he is doing, and has my best interest overall in mind.
December 28, 2015
Yes I find it so confusing reading about the larger sizes and the PS who are so against them but places like JBI have stories of women with larger implants which last for years and years with no issues! I completely agree you need to trust your surgeon & Im sure you will be fine & you will love them! I'm hoping to go larger in a few more years...hopefully lol Cant wait to hear how you get on with it all! Try not to stress but if you do find yourself second guessing it all too much have another consult with your PS or email him? I needed to just to get everything clear in my head & make sure I had made the right decisions X
December 28, 2015
JBI...huh, I'll have to check that out! Thanks! I did go ahead and schedule a pre-op consult for 1 month before surgery...I didnt ask enough questions at my initial consult because "know it all" me over here felt like because I had it done once before, Im an expert lol....then I get on here and feel totally in the dark on what his plans are. I will post updates, hope I can help you in your future size increase conquest;) lol
December 29, 2015
Haha well you would feel more relaxed initially having done it before but then you realise that you're in the same position of not knowing at all what they will turn out like again lol!! Glad you have another ap to go through everything then you can feel settled with it all Let us know how you get on at your pre-op :)
December 28, 2015
Thank you for your input, I appreciate that!:) In all fairness, I did not ask very many questions...literally only asked if I was going to need "a lift" (he told me that a lift will do nothing for me)...I was so excited to hear I would not need that with those scars that I didnt bother to ask him what his exact plans are to correct my obvious low sitting, out to the sides swinging, awkward tilted left nipple.....etc etc etc...his office was very accommodating about getting me back in to ask more questions and encouraged me to write it all down so that we could better understand each other's plans for outcome...I must say, your comment on "people will never see your face" is one I have really thought about a lot. Thanks again, I'll keep updating!

Hi, I think your before pics look a bit like mine, I have that wide space between implants too. Have you had your op yet?
January 14, 2016
I have not:/ Scheduled for March 10th, also have another consult with my PS scheduled for Feb. 2nd so I can wrap my head around what it is he plan on doing besides just "out with the old, in with the new"...I will let you know what he says then if you want, and I will def post my surgery:) Hope it helps!
January 14, 2016
Yes please that would be great if you let me know. I'm going for my consult a week after you and will mention moderate plus to the surgeon
January 14, 2016
no problem! will def do an update...just make sure you follow me so you can see that my review has been updated:)
UPDATED FROM dianamarie083
1 day pre
Sizing/misc. ?'s appt. Complete!
Went in for another consult to ask my PS questions that I've come up with since my initial consult and finalize size. He will be doing internal sutures to attempt to correct my pocket, which was initially made to be too large causing my implants to fall into my arm pits when I lay down.... He was realistic about the outcome stating that I don't have the "best" tissue in that area. Chance of failure is at about 30%. I asked about the strattice and aloderm I've read about here... He said it would cost about $3000-$4000 more and would only increase my chances of success by about 10-12%. He assured me that I can accommodate his suggestion of 750cc mod plus silicone implants. The reason for this size is too achieve the desired volume in the areas that are currently flat. Difficult to imagine the implants in, while I have implants in now, but this was the best pic I could get to wrap my head around it!

Not to be rude but I can really see why you want this surgery. Your girls really fall into the sides.
How did it go? You must be a day or so out as me now? Looking forward to see new pictures and hear about how it all went! Wish you the very best of luck and it's not a 30% chansen of failure, it's a 70% possibility of success!

Awww thank-you! And no, not rude at ALL! It is what it is, and if you were to say "oh they look fine!"...I'd be thinking..yea whatever...haha....My surgery is on 2/22 so I'm not on "the other side" just yet...FINAL COUNTDOWN!!!
February 15, 2016
I'm getting either 700/650 or 750/700 March 14. I'm 5'8 170lbs. It's rare to find people getting these sizes. So I'll be following your progress. So exciting!
February 15, 2016
I know, right?! Seems like anytime someone mentions anything 650+ on a q&a on here it's met with such negative feed back too! I will do my very best to keep you posted on my progress:) hope I can help!
February 20, 2016
Your surgery is almost here! Wahoo! I am excited for you! Go big or go home! Lol so glad there are more ladies posting about bigger implants! I have decided to go with 750!
