WORTH IT$2,800
I'm getting my breast done in march in miami Fl,. I picked my doctor #1concern was I want nice breast! So like I was saying I picked him because not only did he have great reviews but his work looked great! I've been online for a while looking & some breast augmentation didn't look good to my eyes, lol. I have nice perky 34By that are full & round so I didn't want ruin my nice breast. I've seen & heard horror stories on breast augmentation so I'm pleased with picking Mel Ortega from miami florida at CG cosmetics. I've been online everyday doing my research getting ready for march 10 :) I also have two of my friends joining me doing procedures as well. I have no kids & Im pretty curvy so would like to enhance my breast for my own liking. Im at 5 weeks & excited cant wait to see & feel my results. Im also happy my two bbf's will be joining me! So high five to bigger beautiful breast! Im 5'1 at 120 pounds going for 500cc I hope they dont look like in gonna tip over :( I want a full look not a "THATS TOO BIG" LOOK.. comments on girls with my stats & what they got & feel are welcome :) thanks all

So what is your doctor's full name? He's located here in the U.S. in Miami, Florida? Is the $2,800 price just for implants or are you getting a lift or anything else?

Im seeing him at CG Cosmetic maybe you should call there & ask for him. That sucks sorry to hear :( is everything ok with your breast? How do you like them so far? How far long are you now?
February 5, 2014
How much did you pay? And when did you get them done?
February 5, 2014
Is he not certified? I can't find him anywhere on the certification search. I'm starting to think of going with him as well. I emailed his staff today so we'll see what they say. I will be following your journey!

Yes he is certified & is on the boards of certification. Im not sure why you cant find him but I would not go to anyone that was not certified. All his credentials are on here as well. I wrote his name wrong on my profile its Mel Ortega & all his info should pop up. They have 5 I believe plastic surgeons all board certified in that location. You can put his name on the search bar here on realself as well & see his work and even realself as well have him certified. Do you want my coordinators email?

Ugh so frustrating loll imma send some pics I found of 450 to your inbox hopefully I know how lol and they look big but not 500 big ! I'm thinking 500 is gonna be like "all boob" n that's deff not what I'm looking 4 either ]=

Today I paid my remaining balance & got 3 1/2 weeks till my new editions! :) super happy as I'm going with my 2 bff's! As time goes I get anxious, excited etc! I cant go shopping because I want buy every thing in site but not knowing my outcome I gotta be easy! Passing victorias secret is painful not buying any bras :( im going for 475cc at first I was at 500cc bit figured I did not want look like a walking boobie at 5'1 119 pounds "/ My mom told me today why I dont need it meanwhile shes double D's on her own.. times ticking I can't wait but I cam hold off on the pain! I talked to my coordinator today & dicussed to her about my not so good ways with painkillers. Thr painkillers make me sick & I always throw up so I suggested nausea pills as well sleeping pills. I had surgery a few other times on a ankle break & ectopic pregpregnancy & my body did not do good to painkillers so those are my only worries. .... well till next time boobie lovers

Omg I'm 5'1 120 pounds too! Lol, well currently 130 (still havent recovered from giving birth) but my normal weight is 120 and I will be at that weight for sures by the time I have my surgery. So you are going with 475 cc then for sures? I was originally thinking 450 cc but now I am actually starting to think 475 too. Do you have a big booty? I'm just asking because since having kids, my bubble booty has disappeared and I don't want to look like all big on top and small on bottom you know what I mean?

Hi lily i have the same problems with the nausea after surgery. The last time i had surgery the nurse gave me a motion sickness patch to wear behind my ear. It was amazing i wasnt sick at all. Im going to ask them at cg if they would prescribe me one. I think it could really help you :)
