23 Years Old, Excited to Get my Implants Next Month. - Minneapolis, MN

I got my breast implants a little under two weeks ago, and I couldn't be more pleased with my results. I was a bit nervous going into the surgery because I've never done anything like this, nor have I even known anyone who had breast implants. I was worried that I might choose the wrong size, or I might have something go wrong. I am excited to say that Dr. Tholen and his team did such a wonderful job, I didn't even have much bruising. Dr. Tholen says not to give him any of the credit, and that it is all due to his wonderful team. While his team was really amazing and skilled, I have to say that Dr. Tholen deserves the credit. When I was researching which doctor to choose, I came across his name, and researched him a little further, deciding that he was the one. I immediately felt at ease with my decision after watching videos of him and seeing pictures of his results. I didn't go to several consultations as advised; I met with only him and scheduled a surgery right away. When I tried on implants, I had originally picked 550 ccs for my procedure, but Dr. Tholen used 640ccs for my sub-muscular infra-mammary incision, and they are perfect! I have a wide chest and had almost no boobs, so these implants fit me perfectly. (I'm 5' 3" and about 185 pounds.) I have been feeling amazing, even the day after surgery. I have been going on a small walk almost every day to keep my blood moving. I have had very little to no pain at all, very little swelling, and hardly any bruising. I go braless all day, and only wear the band at night, and my implants are moving nicely. It is such an exhilarating feeling to not have to wear a super padded bra just so that it looks like I have boobs. No more worrying that when I bend over, people will see down my shirt and be able to tell that I have no boobs. I feel like a whole new person. :) This whole process from start to finish has been wonderful. The doctor and his staff were all lovely and answered all my questions and helped me feel at ease. It was well worth the money, and I would highly recommend others to go here for their procedures to have a similar experience. It changed my life.

In about 24 hours, I will finally be getting the boobs I always dreamed about. I'm so excited. I scheduled my surgery for a Friday so that I would have the weekend to recover, and I also took Monday off to give myself an extra day of rest. Everything has gone smoothly so far, and Dr. Tholen's office has been very helpful in answering any questions I have, as well as giving me guidance for the surgery itself. I'm going from having what looks like chubby boy "man-boobs" to hopefully a full C. I'm trying not to go too big, but I definitely want them to be close to a C. (I'm getting silicone, infra-mammary, sub-muscular implants.) I haven't settled on the implant size yet. I thought I wanted quite a large one, but without much breast tissue to cover it, I might have that "fake boob look," and I want to avoid that weird round molded implant look. I can't wait though! :)

I have my BA scheduled for June 3rd with Dr. Richard Tholen. I have little to no breast tissue at all, so I'm very excited to finally get some boobies. (It's about time!!!) I have no kids, and I'm currently a very small A (If I wear a very padded bra.) I'm aiming for a C cup afterwards, but I would honestly be happy with anything at this point. I'm 5 ft 3 and about 180 lbs. I'm eagerly counting down the days until my surgery. Right now, it's exactly 4 weeks away. :)
