53yrs Old Getting GummyBear Implants for my Birthday - Marietta, GA

I'm just starting this journey. I have been unhappy with my size A breasts since I was a teen hoping they were going to get bigger...they never did. Now in my 50's at a 42A size I can never find bras in the stores. I can only get them on line. After much research and deliberation I'm going to do it! I have decided on Dr. West with Marietta Plastic Surgery to do the procedure. They were great in letting me actually try on sizes and put my shirt back on to see how they would look. I am going for a fluffy C. Not sure yet what that means in cc terms. I'll keep y'all updated during my pre op visit and post op surgery. Very excited!

Best of everything to you! I hear your story - it's very similar to mine and I'm hoping to be able to finance a MM by mid winter so I'll be up and running by summer. I am apple shaped and like you need an odd size bra - 38A and I hate it!!! Think I'd like the Sientra shaped gummy bear implants with a moderate profile to help with getting a little cleavage (I hear they are the softest of all the gummy bear brands), with the right CC's for me to nicely fill out a sexy C cup bra. I sure would love to see your before and after photos - it so helps the rest of us in making our implant decisions. Take Great Care of Yourself!

Pre op today
I go for my pre op today! It's getting close. I'll get my prescriptions and try out the sizers again just to make sure on the CC amount. I think it will be the 400cc. I've got my list of questions about my limitations on lifting stuff and exercise. Definitely going to let them know I would like some nausea medicine before and after surgery as I have had trouble with that with past anesthesia. (I have had quite a few knee surgeries so I know how my body reacts with anesthesia.) 2 weeks and counting until the arrival of my new girls!

Had a good pre op. Tried on the sizers again. Tried the 450cc on one side and 400cc on the other. Hard to tell any difference but the nurse did tell me when you do the unders you loose about 20cc in volume which isn't really much. I decided to go with Doctors suggestion at time of surgery as to whether to use the 400 or 450cc. Getting excited!

Glad your pre op went well! Good idea on the anti nausea medication. Have you taken pictures with the different sizers? You're almost there!
