So where to start?! I've been on this site for awhile now... Mostly just researching Dr's. I'm a 37 year old Mom of 3 who gained and lost a lot of weight each pregnancy. Finally about 5 years ago I underwent breast aug surgery, at the time I was borderline needing a lift. So here I am 5yrs later getting a lift! I have chosen Dr. Ary Krau, thanks to reading many awesome reviews on here! I currently have 400cc high profile implants (done by another Dr) I started with a small C naturally. I'm considering going to 500cc with the lift because I realize I will lose some size.. I'm pretty happy with my current size, just lacking perkiness! Any advice or encouragement would be greatly appreciated.. As I'm extremely nervous! Thanks in advance!

What size were you at 400? Love your look and want your size, but bigger. I'm currently 5 months post-op 2nd BA and got 500cc mod plus. At first I wanted high profile and now realizing I should have done for more projection, but said more natural and got mod plus which now regret, because I don't see the difference at all.

Hi there! I'm currently at 400cc high profile but will be getting a lift in January and considering going to 500cc since I know I'll lose a little size with the lift! I definitely feel like high profile is the way to go..

Super nervous! Pre op appointment tomorrow! Not sure if I should stay at 400cc and the lift or go up to 500cc with the lift? I need ADVICE! As it is it's very hard to find appropriate bikini tops because of size and they hurt my neck when wearing a bikini top now ???? but that could also be because I'm using my bikini top to give me a lift ???? HELP!

100 cc diff is about half cup size so if you want to go up that much. Or if you can't decide then you can settle in the middle and go up 50 cc. I went up 175 cc and I can see a very noticeable increase in size. I like big boobs but now they look enormous at times and I am scared they might sag. I think big boobs like nice but staying smaller won't sag them overtime specially that you are putting money into getting a lift. If I was unsure I would just settle at 450 cc. Decisions decisions

500 is fine they are not big you have now saline or silicon you going to loose 100 cc if you have saline and going to convert. To silicon

So here's 4 days after surgery! Loving the results but a little concerned with how close they are?! Needing some reassurance! Ended up going with 600cc's high profile, under the muscle with Dr. Krau's suggestion!
