Hi ladies : ) So I've been on this site for a whileeee and have found it so information & helpful - thank you to all the ladies that have put in such effort to share their experience :) I have recently scheduled a BA and figured, since all the other reviews on here with pictures and videos were extremely helpful for me, documenting my process would continue to add to this site's helpfulness :) To start, I had my pre-op appointment June 15th at Dr. Roudner's office. At pre-op I didn't meet with Dr. Roudner but one of the nurses named Lucy. However, prior to the pre-op, I met with Dr. Roudner at the initial consultation. After this consultation, I felt as though his tone, reviews and years of practice made him the best choice out of the plastic surgeons I had met with. Initially at pre-op, I was given a large packet of papers to read and sign. In the middle of reading the documents, Lucy came in and introduced herself. She began with taking pre-op pictures at different angles and then proceeded to provide different implants for me to try. Based on the pictures I provided and personal preferences, we started with 350ccs. From there we tried all the way up to 450, which we both thought looked too big for my physique. She spent quite some time with me on the sizes and determined a range from 350-425ccs. We even had fun with 700ccs which looked CRAZY on me LOL. After we laughed, she then proceeded to do the necessary blood work required and informed me about pre- and post- care instructions. I also was told that if any issues with blood work came about, I would be informed the next day (pretty quick results!). After this I paid, asked some questions and left the office. Didn't hear back from the office after this appointment so the countdown to the 29th begins! :D

Day of treatment

Surgery Day!

nychick88
Hey ladies! So it's done now :) Have to say I definitely woke up to pain but I'll discuss that later. But to start things off: Went to the center around 1:45pm and got signed in and taken into a room immediately. Upon arriving to the room, I was met by one of my surgical nurses for the day named Cybil. She was super sweet! She introduced herself to me, went over some quick paperwork, and made me provide a pee sample for a quick pregnancy test. After performing the test and re-entering the pre-op room, my other surgical nurse came in (I believe her name was Maria) - so sweet as well! She went into more detail about after care and what to expect. After this, she provided me with a bag that contained a exam garment, surgical panty, and surgical hair net. After placing the items on, she returned to give prescriptions and before I knew it I was wisked away to the waiting room. While in the waiting room, I was asked to sign some more papers and select two of the pictures I had for Dr. Roudner to use as a reference while in the OR. Before I got started with that, I was given an IV. Once the IV was in and I picked my photos, the nurse anesthetist named Hector greeted me with a such a wonderful attitude and smile and began giving me three different medications through the IV. One was something to calm me down, another an antibiotic and the other was something but just can't remember what lol. Before this though (I just remembered), Dr. Roudner came out of surgery and greeted me so warmly and proceeded to do some marks. I only got like two lines on me lol. He did remind me that I'm not getting a lift and that one of my boobs is saggier than the other along with has a larger areola & that would remain the same (I really hope not though!). He said "we're going to fill you up!" and then smiled and left. After waiting for a while and watching some judge shows on the TV , NA Hector returned and said they're all set! Right before that, another nurse helped me use the restroom and then pretty much right after I walked into the OR. I noted to the nurse and Hector that I was nervous but Hector made efforts to calm me down which was so nice. Before I knew it, I was asleep! Don't even know what that happened to be honest! lol However, I remember getting up and I was definitely in pain (not to scare anyone). It really wasn't a "pressure" pain as some women mention...it was just pain (kind of hard to describe). I wasn't given anything and was told that I was given all that I could get. So I had my blood pressure taken a few times and before I knew it, I was redressed and taken downstairs to my ride in the parking garage. Although my ride back is probably 25 mins, it felt longer due to rush hour traffic and the fact I was in pain. I tried practicing some breathing exercises but they could only do so much. My beyond wonderful mom helped me from the car and immediately gave me food to which I then took my first dose of Vicodin. It helped but my dad (a physician) explained I could take another if necessary. After taking that, I started to feel a considerable amount of the pain to subside and then proceeded to use the restroom, eat more soup and the type this :) I have to take Vicodin and Keflex (antibiotic) at certain time intervals but my has been a great nurse in helping me stay ontop of what I need to do. So far the pain I feel is really like muscle soreness. I can definitely tolerate this but it's like a 5 or 6 out of 10. I pray the pain goes down alot by tomorrow and the day after since my surgery day pain was more than it seems like for a good amount of women who get this procedure. One of my surgical nurses said that some women are great on surgery day but it's tough on day 2 and 3 while others have a bit more pain on the OP day but feel better as the days go by. Either way, it went quicker than I thought and it was different than I anticipated. Can't say too much on whether I'm happy since it's wayyyyy to soon to tell lol but my mom said I look great! :D so that made me feel good and she said I'm not too big which was a concern for her. Attached you will find some pics....I'll take more when I feel a bit better. Let me know what you ladies think or if you have suggestions for me :) I'm thinking to start using ice packs but I'm not sure yet ... my dad gave me the green light for it but what did you ladies do or hear to do? Oh! and I was told I got 400 ccs ... I don't know what profile but I'll find out when I go for my appointment on Friday :) Sorry for the long blurb but I hope it's helpful for some ladies :) Feel free to message me!

Did you get the same number off Ccs in both breasts?
June 30, 2016
Thanks :) ... The meds definitely help with the pain but leave a sore pain instead ... My ice packs slightly help at times but just trying to take it easy
June 30, 2016
And I'm not even sure! I really hope they're different bc he knows I have some slight asymmetry ... I was in too much pain to really focus on that at the time but on Friday I'll find out

Quick Question ladies

nychick88
So today I'm feeling considerably better than yesterday :)

So I went through my documents I got yesterday and it looks like I got the same size implant on both breasts even though I have asymmetry.

Did any of you ladies have asymmetry and still received the same implant on both sides? I really hope the asymmetry doesn't look exaggerated when I'm all healed. I'm not going to get nervous since I know my doctor has been doing this for a while & I'll ask him more when I see him but have any of you experienced this?
