Will be having my procedure done in 3 1/2 weeks now. I'm trying to decide on the implant size. I'm 5' even and weigh 113lbs. I'm thinking about going with 500-525cc implants with a lift but I'm not completely sure yet. I had really big breasts after my 4th child and really like how it looked. Now I'm extremely deflated. It's crazy how much I changed with this last baby. I'm pretty droopy too. I'm going to upload some wish pics of the look I want.

What bra size are you currently? I am 5'2 118lbs and was a 32dd/34d. I just had a BL & BA 350cc hp under the muscle put in last Tuesday. I am day 5 post op. So far I am loving them. Since I already started out big, just really sagging, I was scared I would be way too big but so far they are looking great! Are you going with saline or silicone?
June 21, 2015
Honestly I have no idea what size I am now. 36D was my bra size while I was breastfeeding. While I was breast feeding I started working out and then stopped breastfeeding and became so deflated that I was much smaller than my pre-pregnancy size. I'm still wearing a 36d bra with a silicone bra insert and I still don't fill it. So I'll be excited to be at least a 36d or DD again. I'll be getting silicone unders.

Oh yeah, and high profile, I just haven't decided on the size yet. I made some rice sizers and liked the look of 500cc so I may go with 525 or 550 since you lose some size when you get under muscle we will see what my PS says. I have my pre-op appointment on July 13th the day before my surgery. I'll finalize details then.

Good luck. Go bigger because you lose some going under the muscle don't be scared!! If your going saline their gonna be bigger and rounder, silicone is the best! Keep us updated!!

I'll be going with silicone under the muscle. Thank you!!

Pre-op photos and phone consultation

I had my phone consultation a few weeks ago. I live a few states away, so this will be my only contact before my lift/augmentation. I was hoping to just be able to have an augmentation, but Dr. Hochstein says that if I want the look in my wish pics than I will definitely need a lift. I've seen lots of amazing after pics of his patients, actually, most of my wish pics are from his patients on this site. I'm just a few weeks away.

Good luck! I am having my procedure done this Thursday. I also had a phone consultation with Dr. Hochstein, but I decided to schedule my pre-op appointment the day before my procedure. I would drive myself nuts if I just had the procedure and not at least 24hrs to let it marinate.

Check out my page in a few days to see how it goes. I have heard a lot of great things about Dr. Hochstein and I feel confident that he will be able to deliver the look I am going for. I just don't want to go too big.

Wish me luck! :-)

Thanks for sharing your story. I take it you are traveling to Miami for the surgery? How long do you plan to stay there?

June 22, 2015
Yes, I will be driving with my husband from a couple of states away. We will be staying 7 days. It will be a couple of days before the procedure and 4 days after.

I think your before is kind of similar to how mine were. Trust me they will look beautiful after surgery! :)
June 26, 2015
That's what I thought too, but you have a lot more volume than me, so I'm thinking about 525cc instead of 475cc like you got. We'll see what the Dr. Thinks! Thank you!

I'm nervous and excited at the same time about next week!!! I've been working so hard to get a healthy and strong body. I have 4 kids under 5 years old. My youngest is 13 months old so it is been hard on my body in a short period of time with 4 different pregnancies. Each baby I put on 50 pounds and I always worked hard to lose it. Where I am going with this is that I feel that I can almost handle anything, but I am still so nervous about the fact that I am getting cut open and the pain that I am going to feel after the surgery! I am a stay at home mom and we hired a nanny to help me with my children after the surgery and my husband is such a good help so I am not worried about that. It's just that I've seen so many pictures of women showing their stiches and it looks so painful so that's why I am so nervous. I am happy overall. I know Dr. Hochstein is going to do a great job! And after the healing I am going to feel great!!!

For those who want to compare themselves with me for future procedures:
I'm 5 feet tall.
I have a 25.5 inch waist.
My breasts measure as a deflated 30B right now.
Hips measure at 33".

I've included my before pictures. I'll share my after results after the surgery.
