WORTH IT$3,300
I have never been well endowed and have wanted breast implants since I was a teenager. I'm 5'3" and 104lbs. Before I nursed my 3 children I was a 34b, every time I get measured for bras they still measure me at a 34b, however there is a lot of room left in the bras especially if I wear one with any sort of padding which I feel I have to because I have lost so much volume. I had surgery scheduled when I was 24, however, I found out I was pregnant before surgery and had to cancel it. This was my third baby so spending the money on implant surgery seemed a bit selfish to me so I wanted to wait until my kids were a bit older and daycare costs were not so high. I live in Massachusetts and any kind of cosmetic surgery is very expensive here. About 4 years ago I spoke to my obgyn about it again and she told me not to be afraid to travel because there are great doctors in many places and the fee would be much less in certain geographical area's. I have a consultation scheduled in Miami with Dr. Hunker on November 17th and am hoping to schedule my surgery in early January. I will upload photos as soon as I get a chance but haven't taken any yet.

I live in MA too. I am consulting with out of state doctors because some states have more experience performing more BAs! I have met with doctors in CA but FL sounds great too! Will be following your review of the docs in FL. Best of luck!!!

How exciting! I originally started looking in FLORIDA because my obgyn suggested it. She said it's the BA capital LOL and that there are tons of wonderful doctors with a great deal of experience because it's so common down there. She also said the reduced cost versus the cost in Boston was something to consider. I will be posting reviews about my consults tomorrow night after I get back to the hotel room.

Yes. I live in Boston and all of the surgeons up here that I was interested in were about $8500. My obgyn suggested going to Miami instead. The prices vary greatly depending on where you live. As does the experience.

So I managed to get a few pics. I took them myself because I didn't want my husband staring at them. I don't think I realized how bad it actually got until I just took these pics. It's so depressing. I can't wait for surgery! They look extra weird because I wear very tight bras so it makes me look like I have double boobs. Nothing looks right anymore. I can't say Irregret nursing my children but it sure does a number on you physically.
After using rice sizers my husband and I both liked the 470cc so I think I will end up going with a 450-500cc implant but that will be discussed at my consult in November.

Some inspiration photos

Some pics of what I would like to look like along with a few pics of the before and after of some of my inspiration photos.
My favorite pic is some weird file type which I can't seem to attach or open anywhere so I will have to try to play around with that one.

Thanks for sharing your pictures. They will be great for your before and after comparisons! You might also want to search for (and post if you like,) some wish boob pictures.
You mentioned you hope to schedule your surgery in January. Feel free to join a forum of members awaiting their January 2015 breast augmentation surgery. The forum is a bit quiet now, but the monthly forums get very busy and are another great support network!
