dr bartell ONLY uses saline mentor moderate profile implants. His results aren't bad, but look elsewhere for better results!!

So I have been considering the BA for a really long time even as I was developing I wanted them to grow and be bigger. Lately I have become obsessed with getting them so I have scheduled a few consults to see what dr I want to go with. Hubby was not happy and I seemed to have finally talked him into it! I don't know what to get for a size just yet but I want them full and big--not huge. But I also don't like that weird fake round look I see some girls have when they have a bra on or go too big. My consults are next Friday and the following Tuesday! It can't come soon enough! I think I want silicone or gummy bear but I'm concerned I don't get the nice fullness I'm looking with that!

Question on sizing

  • 30 Apr 2015

I am 29 5'4 170 lbs. and I'm currently a 38a my husband keeps telling me I better not get this size or that size which all look normal or proportionate on their body. I can't decide on the sizing for myself but I don't want to go small and regret it. It seems like they always look smaller when naked. Does a real bra actually make them look bigger if you don't have all that padding? I really wanted to be a small D No bigger. I fear a full C will be too small and I will be unhappy. What to do?? Just get them and hubby will have to deal with size? Not like I'm trying to go with a DD OR DDD

Wish boobs

Can't decide on saline, silicone or this new "gummy bear" implant.. Most of my "wish boobs" seem to be more round rather than tear drop. Which I THINK I want tear drop but my natural breasts aren't full on top no idea what to do!! I found most of these pix of wish boobs on this site..not sure where else to look but this is what I envision. I'm 5'4 170 lbs 29 yrs old

After reaching my 3 month mark and having my follow up appointment with my dr I am completely done and over it! Dr bartell seemed nice at first , his receptionist Katie is rude, standoffish and I don't feel welcome to ask questions or have concerns. My breasts looked ok, the same old boobs but just w more volume. Since the beginning I have been highly upset with the shape and size and lack of knowledge my dr shared with me! For example I never knew what my breast width diameter was to know what implant size I wanted or needed to chose. he made it seem like moderate profile was the ONLY size option I had, when Come to find out after my surgery I could have done moderate plus or high profile and now I have to pay more money with a new dr that I trust will give me the results I am looking for and to top it off he was going to make me pay another $6000 for a revision. I feel I was done a dis service by not giving me this information and spending the time with me to help me get the results I am looking for. My boobs are wide and flat! No upper pole, no projection and I had to schedule a revision with another dr. Thanks for the waste of money!! Perhaps this is why the office is always empty and you get in the second you walk in the door! Now that it's been a little while, I also want to add that I have always had this constant ache and pain in my left breast. Dr bartell slightly over dissected my left breast causing pulling, slight animation deformity and constant annoying pain! I don't know if this will ever be fixed without completely removing the implants and allowing the pockets to heal so I can "start from scratch". Dr bartell offers "natural" results but u have seen him stick implants in woman who clearly need a lift and that is doing the patient no good!! Don't let the risk of scars scare you away.. You want long lasting results so that you don't need them re done in a year or 5. If I were to do this all over again I wouldn't have chosen dr bartell... Keep searching and find a better dr with better patient care!
