I'm nervous, excited and scared all in the same breath!! 10 days to go until my big day!! I can't wait to finally have boobies for the first time in my life!!
I'm hoping to go to a full C. Debating between Mentor high profile silicone unders 400-425cc or 370cc Sientra teardrop silicone unders. I just don't want to go too big but not too small either. I want to look natural and proportionate. Any comments, questions or opinions are greatly appreciated.

Hi!! Good luck! Your day will be here before you know it!! I am 5'9" about 153 and just got 400-425cc 2 weeks ago and love them! The size is perfect for me! I will probably end up a good size C I think! Sizing was the hardest to pick for me because we are so tall I didn't want to not do big enough yet I was afraid I would end up too big if I went with more cc's! Can't wait to see your results!!

Thanks a bunch!! I'm leaning towards 425's!! You're right!! With being so tall I don't want to pick too small if an implant! Thanks for your support!

Thanks!! I'm I between doing 300-425cc. My husband wants me to do 425 or 450... I jugs don't want to be too top heavy looking. I workout a lot and I don't want my "prized possessions" to get in the way!! LOL

I personally can say 425 cc high profile round gave a very natural and proportionate look to my small frame and I bet it will do the same for you. Good luck on your choice and surgery. You will be so happy, and going to look fabulous.

congratulations on getting your new boobies ! I have done a ton of research on the mentor implants and see most Doctors use them. I have decided on the high profile silicone as well. I am having trouble deciding on size ...lol. I see from your photo I have much smaller breasts than you ... so maybe I should go up to a 350cc/370cc...as I would like to be a full C as well. I am having my boobies done April 9th!!! Good luck....I hope you love your new boobies!!!

You're smaller than me??? Lol hahahahaha I feel like a boy....I hope for a natural look but a nice size. I think I'm leaning towards HP mentor implants. I just hope that the smooth round ones don't cause malpositioning or capsular contracture. My ps switched to using textured implants recently to decrease the incidents of these two complications but with a small amount of breast tissue I'm afraid of the rippling side effect. Plus they have a shorter life expectancy and higher incidence of rupture. What are your thoughts on this? Thanks!!

My dr. said the new gel doesn't rupture easily.. he had me squeeze and push as hard as I could and nothing happened, it just bounced back. He took a needle to the implant and the gel started to come out then it sucked back into the implant. even cut one in half with a scalpel and the gel stayed in place...pretty cool! as far are rippling it helps if you go under the muscle, however it is less likely to happen with silicone because it is smooth all around. massaging will help scar tissue to be less. malposition is nothing to worry about as long as the pocket wasn't to large for implant. hope this helps you!

I'm super excited and nervous all at the same time. Going to do the rice test this weekend so I can wear them all week to see if I'm comfortable with the size I'm thinking of going!! Had anyone else done this test? Is it worth the time and effort? I love this site. It's great to connect with so many like minded people!! ????

Today was the big day!! It was a super quick surgery! My surgeon ended putting in 400cc smooth round high profile sub muscular silicone implants in. I couldn't be happier even though I'm swollen. I'm just groggy from surgery and my Vicodin. I love looking down and seeing cleavage now! FINALLY!! I will keep you guys posted on my progress, but here's some three-hour post-surgery pics of my prized possessions!
