Hi there!
First off id like to start by saying that I have been obsessed with Real Self for a few months now and have found several reviews very helpful. My hope is to help and answer as many questions to women looking to get a breast augmentation. Iam a 23 year old mother of one and also a nursing student. Iam soooo excited to start this process with you all and share all of the details of my procedure with you all. I decided to write my FIRST review today because I literally just got off the phone with Liz from spectrum aesthetics in Dr. Mel Ortegas office. She was very helpful and answered all of my questions immediately and professionally. She immediately sent me a text with her email address to send photos of my breast for review. (They do this to see if you are a good candidate for a breast augmentation and if you will need a lift as well.) Liz texted me back immediately to let me know the doctor felt I am a good candidate. I've agreed to set the date for May1st (Dr. Mel is only available Monday, Wednesday and Friday). They require a $500 deposit to set the date which I will pay for this weekend. So excited! I'll attach the pictures I sent in. :)

8 weeks away!
Today I am 8 weeks away from my surgery which means I have 6 weeks to pay off the remaining balance on my account. My concern today is that I stopped breast feeding 7 months ago and just last week I started developing milk again only in my right boob. Has anyone ever experienced this and knows if this will effect my surgery? I have added more pics because I also notice that my left breast is droopping more (saggy). Man! I can't wait to get this done! Hoping for a full C or even a small D.

Best of luck ladies! I'm new on here but I went for my 6 week Ck up and everything is looking great. I just wish I would of listened to my PS on the CCS I got scared after peoples comments and down sized that day darn!!! But I'm still at a 34DD.vs size which they exaggerate so if I go to like Macy's I'm a 34D. Better than the 34A I was. So when in doubt listen to your PS after showing your wish picture and don't listen to anyone else. They are the professionals. After showing my picture and measuring me he put me at 500cc HP mentors. Then I freaked out and went down to 450cc they look good like I said but they hide with my clothes unless its a tight shirt :/ when in doubt between size especially going under go bigger.. Good luck!

****paying off the balance has changed** they no longer take debit or credit over the phone. They told me to bring in my balance of $1,000 in cash the day of surgery***

Hey! Okay so If you are debating going bigger-I say 100% YES! It is much better to be just a tad bit to big than a tad bit to small. Trust me! You will LOVEEEEE your new girls!!!

My PS put 390 and filled them to 425CC. I would say you should go 450 or 475 CC

April 1, 2015
Wow really?
Lately I been thinking more of the 375- 425 cc range. IM scared I might go too big.
