Since I could remember I have always wanted larger and EVEN breasts...my left is a whole size larger than my right so I am a 36B on the L and 36A on the R but have to wear a bra to accommodate the larger size and I hate it!!!! So finally I am able to get my over due BA! I had my consult and we tried on several sizers and the best one for me looked to be 700cc!!! I am 41 5'5 and 165 pounds so with this and my chest width it looked fine. I will also have to have a breast lift so I am so nervous about that and will I need a pain pump and then the size!! If anyone has any advice or suggestions please feel free to help me :) I can not wait though for this surgery!!!

I got 470cc on my right which was a B pre op and 385cc on my left which was a C pre op and I am now measuring at a DD. You will prob be an E or F. I'm now 165lbs and I'm 5'6. My BWD is 16.

Yeah I think I'm going to go down on the CC..just don't know what to yet. They say if it's under the muscle it appears smaller & you lose some cc when they settle so I'm just confused!!

My nurse told me that some people feel they lose ccs going under the muscle however she doesn't feel that's true. Some people get use to them being big and swollen and then the swelling goes down and they start to settle and we begin to get use to them and start to feel that they aren't as big as they thought they would be. Try on sizers with a few different shirts to get a better feel for them and take pics from each angle.

I did go over the muscle though so I didn't lose cc's as they say you do when they put them under the muscle. Just something to think about! Good luck!

Ok what are the best support bras to buy for after surg!?! Scar cream!? There's so much running through my head!! Still undecided on size but I have 25 days for that...yikes!

I went into my pre op with 17 questions like yours. He answered 15 of them before I said a word! Your PS should be able to help with those and He/she will have a lot of their own personal preferences on post op care!

So your PS is doing the same size implant for both even though you're asymmetrical? I had a PS tell me that was the best plan for me (I, too, am very uneven), and I'm just wondering if that's standard procedure.

Need help! Do I need to purchase some sports bras prior to surg?? I have sch Aug 5 and haven't bought anything yet..If so, do y'all get regular sports bras or front closure/zip so you don't have to put on overhead..still debating on my cc size..was 700 but thinking of going down to 625/650!
