Hi,

I never grew boobies! before BA I was flat as a board! I had my first BA back in April 2004. I did all my homework before the procedure of course (research, meeting different surgeons, etc) BUT I still don't know how I ended up choosing the worse PS there was, well, maybe I do know....I wanted to save money, YES shame on me!

After the surgery it was obvious that something went wrong, I had agreed with the PS that naturally one breast was slightly bigger than the other so we decided that he was going to put a SLIGHTLY smaller implant on one side.....well, the difference was ridiculous so within only 3 months I had to have a revision. It's been 10 years after that and I can tell you that I have never been happy, I have no cleavage, one implant bottomed out and the other has a capsular contraction, my nipples are uneven and it is very very obvious. After my surgery I was never able to go braless, not only because the unevenness of my breasts but because these implants are way too small, so without heavy padding and push ups my breasts are soooo tiny!. I know I am petite, I am 5'6" 112lbs but I do like large breasts. Right now I have round, saline 350 and 375 I think (I don't remember the exact cc's)

I have scheduled a revision with Dr. Ary Krau on May 22nd 2014 and I seriously CANNOT wait, I have read so many good things about him, not to mention how understanding and patient he was the 2 times I saw him. Now....he mentioned 700cc's for me as I told him I want to be large but I am a lil nervous, I don't want to look like a circus freak, I just want to be a skinny girl with big boobies :). He has recommended HP, silicone and maybe 700 cc's. I still have to see him again for the Pre-op so things may change...not sure.

Any thoughts? Suggestions? Advice?

You loook frkn amaziing!!!! I am 5'2 115lbs and am having my revision on feb 20. I currently have 325mod silicone and am wanting to go with 600-650hp silicones I definitelt want the upper pole fullness look and told my dr that I don't want to have to still buy push up bras after this revision. I was thinking 650 might look too big on me but seeing that you have 700 makes me fall inlove. You look incredible

They look a 1,000 times better! Now your new pics are going to be my wish pics! I had smooth, round, high profile 500cc saline Impants in January. My dr has put be on Singulaor because my left Breast is firmer and slightly higher than my right. I actually prefer the higher, harder/rounder look but apparently the medicine is supposed to help prevent capsular contraction since it appears that I may have the beginning signs of it. I've been doing the massages and taking my medicine daily and it feels softer but isn't 100% symmetrical with my right. I'm praying a revision surgery is not in my future, although, I love the appearance of your 700's. But even with 500cc's my back is killing me. How is your back with the 700's. Also, if you don't mind me asking, approximately how much was your revision surgery?

Thank you for the kind words :) I don't know if it's my huge desire for having big boobs that prevents me from feeling back pain but I am super tiny and I honestly don't feel any additional weight. The revision costed me $6,000.00 because he had to remove the capsule and old implants etc.

Wow, you look beautiful and must feel fantastic after having waiting so long to fix previous problem. Congratulations

I wish you the best! the size is certainly between you and your doctor. Does the doctor have any of the new bras that you can put on to see what size best suit you and your body size. I assume your doctor has measured your chest (horizontal and vertical) to assess what size your frame handle best. I had BA a few years ago and in my anxiousness and eagerness to increase my bust size, I did not consider when buying two piece clothing sets that would be a problem since top and bottom would be significantly different.... good luck and post after pics.

Thank you for your input! I tried on the sizers at my Dr's office and that's how he came up with that number. I think that I am in the same mental state as you were...I just want to have big boobs! I've lived all my life unhappy with the size (and shape) of my breast that now I kinda want to go overboard. My surgery is only 18 days away, I will post pics then but I will post some of my ideal sizes to see what you guys think.

I love the look of your ideal size, that's what I would love also.I'm in a similar situation to you. I've been living with my hard implants for even longer. I'm 5.3 and 98lbs and just wanted big boobs all my life my sister has a natural 32 e cup and I was a flat as a board.525cc is the largest the Ps can do on me. I'm will wait with anticipation to see your results, good luck

How do you like your large implants? Do they feel heavy?
May 6, 2014
They do feel heavy...I don't feel like going braless for sure. Also at they gym any kind of jumping sucks...I need 2 sports bras for that

Oh my!! Crazy how I read all these not positive things about large implants and i still want them. I guess going 10 years with small implants that I was not happy with has made me want to go as large as I can :-/
May 6, 2014
I still like large ones too....
