Wanting Perky Boobs for So Long

Age: 28
Height: 5'7 3/4"
Weight: 138-149lbs (I fluctuate cuz I weightlift)
Dress Size: 3
Breast Size: saggy 32DD
Since I was in middle school and first developed I had these HUGE saggy boobs! They were 36DD at one point after gaining weight and were so heavy that they created indents in my shoulders from my bra straps. I never wore cute little bras like every other girls, I had these huge 4 clasp old lady bras that were so not cute. I lost a bunch of weight (at one point I wore a size 16 and now I'm a size 3) my bra size is now a saggy 32DD but I swear they don't seem that big cuz they sag so much but then when I try on bras I always got into DD and a couple months ago I was a 32DDD!! When I had 36DD I wanted a breast reduction but after losing weight I want a breast lift with small implants. I want to remain about the same size or maybe be 32D. I've already seen one PS but he quoted me $15,000 and that seems way too high when the average is $8,700 and he also wanted to lift them only a little where I still have sagging underneath to cover the scars and I don't want that, also I didn't really care for the before and after photos I saw. I don't want any sagging and it's fine if the scars underneath show, I rather have perky and scars then sagging and scars covered. So the PS search continues! I'm actually considered Dr Pousti in San Diego, ca. I really like his before and after photos.

We're about the same size (I'm a little bit heavier) and I just had a breast lift with implants three weeks ago. Went from a 36B to a 36D. Love the results. There are scars, but I'm starting silicone sheeting next week, and everything is healing perfectly. I work out a lot too, and lift, and when I started back at the gym last week (just light cardio) I LOVED how I looked in the mirrors. I 100% think scars are worth it to get the perky shape/look I wanted!!

Yay for perky boobs! Yeah I'm a litter scared about working out after cuz I do lift weights and I know how much you use your chest muscles/shoulders/arms even when you don't realize it. I'm also confused on whether working out your chest is good or bad, I would think bad cuz you build up muscle but then you'll lose that muscle and what if your implants drop more cuz of that lol
Also I have some sort of allergy to tape/bandaids so I hope the silicone ones are ok and don't create rashes or blisters

I have really sensitive skin, and the steri-strips after surgery didn't bother me. I'll start silicone sheets next week, and report on how it goes! Also, I've read different advice on how long you should wait before trying to work your chest muscles. Shortest time: 6 weeks. But one doc recommended waiting up to 3 months to do chest-only exercises! Personally, for the next few months I'm going to focus on other muscle groups (especially legs), and give my pecs a chance to really heal.

:) Thank you! I hope they will look amazing! I'm still scared about scars cuz I'm not married and don't have a current BF so I'm just scared a guy will see them sand be like eww why do you have scars all over your boobs :(

15k is high! The highest I've heard is 11k. I paid 9k myslef. 20% held my booking and I paid the rest 3 weeks before surgery at my preop appt.

You'll definitely love any results. I'm still just 4 days postop but its better than I could have ever of dreamed.

Good luck choosing a doctor and booking your date!!

Yeah and 15k was WITH a discount and then when I wouldn't make a second spot they put it down to 14k but geez that's so high! 9k seems so reasonable. Does it feel different that you can't really feel them sagging anymore? I once duct taped my boobs up( yes I know crazy right? Haha) but they were almost like a big B, I did it for my 21st birthday to fit into a top that I couldn't wear a bra for and OMG it felt amazing! As soon as they lifted up though my balance was off, I basically leaned backwards!

In 2004 I had a breast lift and implants with small saline implants 220 cc & 245 cc . One breast was bigger than the other. Wanted a more natural look. Now 11 years later I need another BL & BA & I am going for the [RS bleep] star look! Lol Good luck with finding a Dr.
User Avatar
July 5, 2015
Yeah I don't want the "natural" look. No sagging! I want them up up and in your face! Lol well at a reasonable size but up in your face
July 5, 2015
I'm in the same boat.. A 30dd totally deflated.. Looking at getting a lift with a small implant for upper fullness. I hear good things about dr. Pointy. I'm in Florida, so I have decent options vs cost... I've seen one dr. So far and I have an apt for one other locally...and then I'll try the south Florida options. I know it's a long process.. But it's so worth finding the best surgeon for your needs ..good luck

Are you looking to stay around the same size?
July 5, 2015
Yes, honestly I'm not unhappy with the size, I'd go smaller but my "breast" tissue falls out of my swimsuit if I bend over to pick up something. It's ridiculous.. So whatever skin they remove during the lift, I'd like them to replace the same cc removed for an implant with that cc or less, something with upper pole fullness, but nothing that screams "wow" she got her boobs done..
User Avatar
July 5, 2015
That makes sense. I feel like I have way more breast tissue than skin and when I lay down I can tell if I pull up on the skin there's actually a nice sized round boobie underneath! Lol of course I can only do that to one at a time cuz the other saggy twin is hanging off the side underneath my armpit lol
July 5, 2015
I feel like I'm looking in the mirror! Hahaha. Your height and weight and boobs is totally me! I've gone to 7 doctors and can't seem to find the right match! Please share your experience and any recommendations.
July 9, 2015
Me too!!! Looking in the mirror when I saw ur pics!! My boobs look like I should be on the cover of national geographic! Want to get a major lift and small implants for fullness up top. I'm flat chested from the top and round at the bottom. My friend says its like putting a baseball in a tube sock! Lwol!

Textured vs Smooth round silicone implants?

User Avatar
CaliBoobies
Ladies what is your opinion/experience??
Textured vs Smooth round implants. I'm pretty positive I want HP and behind the muscle. I don't want a teardrop natural look, I was upper pole fullness.

*want upper pole fullness
July 5, 2015
Went with textured because slightly lower rate of capsular contracture. Also, doc said because of the way textured adheres to muscle, may settle less than a smooth round, and you might retain slightly more upper pole fullness (but he cautioned that the difference would be small). No post surgery massage required for textured; in fact, you're supposed to leave them alone and let them heal/adhere.
User Avatar
July 5, 2015
Oh really no massage required? Yeah I was told that smooth feels very soft and jiggly like real boobs but textured doesn't really move and are harder. That would be nice to retain as much upper pole fullness as possible
July 6, 2015
So I have to admit, my boobs are pretty firm, but I'm at 3.5 weeks. I'll keep posting about how/if they soften up.

What size do you think you'll go with, or are you still deciding?

User Avatar
July 7, 2015
I'm still deciding. I don't want to go too big cuz I used to have huge heavy ones and the bras hurt when they weighed them down but I want to stay around the same side 32DD or 32D that I am now. I feel like I have a lot of breast tissue so maybe around 300cc or 350cc but you never know! I need to make rice sizers to try out at home

Are you in southern ca? I just had a revision by dr Chasan in San diego. All I wanted was upper pole and he did a perfect job giving me what I wanted! It was my third surgery so I was skeptical but I wish I had just gone to him from the start- give him a look! You're gonna look great!!!!

I'm in Northern California but will be moving south again. I'll check him out thank you!

I'm from Marin and I had some not so great experiences there! Call Chasan and they will schedule you for a FaceTime and that way at the very least you can rank other surgeons you meet with against the best of the best!

Oh nice! Is that what you did?

That's what I did- how I met him originally and I felt he not only listened but REALLY heard what I said even over the computer. It can't hurt right?! Check him out!

I'm going with HP smooth round. I've seen a lot on this site that look very natural so I'm happy with my doctors choice.

Nice choice!
July 7, 2015
Go with the textured and go big. At least 625 so you won't have any regrets later. You will look super hot.
User Avatar
July 7, 2015
Is that what you did?
Lol I think 625 might be way too big on me
July 7, 2015
With your stats you will look awesome. Better than the the VS models. Remember the saying go big or go home. Lol. You will look great no matter what you choose.
