Hi everyone,
I have been very insecure about my flat chest since forever.
Some times I'm very glad that my flat chest doesn't limit me with any kind of sport of movements, some other times I just wish I could be able to wear a strapless dress or bikini.
My small boobs are pretty and even (probably because there's nothing there lol), but I'd like to have them bigger that I could feel more confident wearing anything.
Right now I'm around 34AA/A, and I would like something not grossly huge since I really enjoy doing activities like climbing and I don't want my implants to be in the way.
I am 160cm/48kgs, so yes, I am small but I have a pear shape.
I haven't had any consultation since I'm still saving. I'm thinking of getting it somewhere after August/September.
Eva, the manager of the community, sent me some links to read, but they are very long and some are not very relevant for me.
So I thought I'd do this for myself.
Any thoughts/opinions/questions I need to ask/preparation/things to consider are welcome.
I'll summarise the comments into updates. It's probably also easier for others who'd get a BA too.

I am a very active climber too. I went for a smaller implant, 300cc under the muscle. I am almost two weeks post op now and happy with the size, I look very proportionate and my clothes fit nicely. But I am a little worried about how it will effect climbing, with the implants being under the muscle. I know a lot of fitness models and bodybuilders have implants and they seem fine, so it's probably ok?

OMG! I was just writing down your name as one of my perfect example for my intake appointment tomorrow!! So glad you commented.
I hope you are doing well.
My current boobies are really small, like almost flat. So 300cc will give me a smaller result than yours. I'll ask what my PS thinks and I'll let you know how it goes tomorrow. Again, thanks for this! X

Hey I also had my breast augmentation about 10 weeks ago and went with 330cc under the muscle and they are moderate profile plus, but they are filled to the max so that makes them high profile. I am 5,4 and 112 lbs. I was an A cup before and now I measure a full D or DD. I would say I look a D cup. I also have gained some weight due to the procedures. If you have any questions you can ask me. Mine came out exactly how I wanted them to look. It just depends on the look you are going for. :) I hope your consultation went well.
May 28, 2015
From reading your review so far it seems like you would be happy with 350cc. They told me people always regret playing it safe and then wish they had gotten bigger. Anyway, good luck with everything.
May 28, 2015
I don't know how it's like to have boobs so I've been indeed thinking of playing it safe because I don't want bowling balls on my chest and that they would jiggle all the time. Mind i ask why you think 350 would suit me? Thanks hun youre so helpful x
May 29, 2015
I for sure do not feel like I have bowling balls on my chest even after being flat chested. You won't feel like that I promise. Of course they will feel like that at first though. I'm very active. I train very hard and I was supposed to compete in a bikini division bodybuilding competition this year but I decided to have the surgery instead. They don't seem to get in the way of training I just make sure they are well supported. I love they way they balance out my body. They actually don't jiggle at all since they are not made of fat so you don't need to worry about that. Usually the high profile implants tend to me more firm than say a tear drop or lower profile implant. Since you are getting silicone, yours will still be squishy, but not jiggly unless you had some breast tissue to begin with. The reason I suggested that size is because usually people who have very flat chests look great with that size. If it's too small it looks kind of weird. I had mine done by Dr. Fiala. He is on this site and you can view his photos if you'd like and he's really an amazing surgeon. I know you don't live in the US, but at least you'll get an idea of some really good before and afters photos for reference.

I just realised that I should have replied to this comment as well. It looks like I'm ignoring your comments lol. But all noted, thank youuu! Xx

I had mine done may 7 i was an a cup. I went 300 under muscle moderate profile and they are perfect! They are purportioned and they look real. They are identical to what i wanted. I wear a dcup bra but they look like a full C i think... I would say 315-330 would suit your body type. They wont get in the way and you can still be active. I went with saline as they felt more real. I went in armpit. As well i can still wear all my old shirts just new bras and swim tops i am inlove never been happier!!! I am in canada so i had them done in Toronto
July 7, 2015
Thank you for dropping by! I am so very happy for you that you underwent this surgery. I hope that I would be so happy too! Can't wait for next week. It just feels like the day can't come quicker... I am 5ft3 and 103lbs, so we have similar stats! But I have to go with HP because I have narrow chest. Are you planning to write a review here? Would love to read and follow your journey. And see pictures of course! Sorry that sounds super creepy but pictures really help :)
July 22, 2015
Hi there! If you don't mind me asking, who was your operating doctor? Would you recommend him? I am pretty well the same stats as you and am seeking a BA within the year!
July 22, 2015
Are you in Germany or in The NL? I had my surgery in Germany but based in The NL. I had a deal the clinic where my PS works, but I kind of took my shot with him. I know one surgeon which happens to be everyone's favourite in the NL, operating in a hospital instead of a clinic. And his works are just extremely beautiful. Message me any time!

First appointment : question list, first sizing, info on procedure

I have been on RealSelf for way too frequent. Today I had my first talk with the consultant regarding my BA, and she was surprised as how much I know already. YOU LADIES ROCK!!!
She was basically going through all the risks and pre&post-op preparations I need to be aware of, which was really great.
I brought my long list of questions, she answered almost everything before I could even get the chance to ask. Comforting!
Here is the checklist:
1. Size
2. Silicon or saline (and the brand)
3. Incision : underarm, nipples or the fold
4. Shape : teardrop or round
5. Placement : under or over the muscle
6. High profile or moderate (plus)
7. Any satisfaction guarantee from the provider
8. Limitations before and after surgery : medicine, activities, recovery time needed
9. Risks : how fragile are the implants, bleeding, infection, etc
My preference (still, so far) goes to round, silicon, high profile, dual-plane.
I tried 300cc and 375cc today. Was asking if they had something in between but there were none.
The sizers were so pointy, I'm not sure I could decide based on those.
The consultant (and the clinic in general, according to her) tends to advise me to get the teardrop/anatomical. But the more she rubbed it in my face, the more I'm wanting the round. It's like unintentional reverse psychology. Or one just hears what she wants to hear.
I kind of like the idea of having a natural look, but I also would like the roundness.
I just haven't seen any anatomical review that I really really really love. They look way too natural in my opinion.
But on the other hand, I don't feel like forcing my own will against the surgeon's. He knows what he's doing and clearly he's a professional, so I should put my trust in him, I guess.
The consultant did not have any pictures with the round implants, so I can't really say anything until I actually talk to the PS.
Hence, I'm going for the second appointment in June, where the surgeon will be around to give his opinion. And the lovely S/O, of course. I'm kind of dragging him into this.
After all, we are the two people who will have to live with the twins for the rest of our lives.
Oh and he already took the liberty that my left boob would be his.
(we are such a weird couple, I know..)
The surgery will be done probably somewhere in October, for some personal reasons.
Anyway, the clinic uses Mentor for the round implants and Silimed for the anatomical. Anyone has any experience with these?
I've been taking pre-op pictures, but I'm still debating whether or not I should put them online right now. Maybe later..
Learning I can't delete/edit posts makes me a little more careful in typing and being weird :P

If you like the look of round implants, go for a second opinion consult with another doctor. Don't let them force you into something you won't love! Each shape has its pro's and con's....I have round and I think they look natural, I didn't get that "round" grapefruit on my chest I've seen in so many pics, but I didn't like anatomical because I've read they can "flip " in the pocket.
June 24, 2015
we decided on the final everything, they are going to be round :) the implants are ordered already for my surgery. happy! thanks anyway :)

For heaven's sake..
I stay up until 2 and wake up at 7 in the morning and the first thing I do after drinking some water is go on RealSelf and go through the reviews for BAs.
I think I'm going to opt for dual plane, crease incision and round HP.
I just need to go for the second opinion for the sizing.
Also I think I'll go somewhere between 275-350cc.
I like the idea of having "boobies" but I've never been a boob person, so I'm still deciding either going for B or a C.
I thought after 3 days abusing RealSelf for some inspiration and reviews I would get tired and stop.....nope. Lord have mercy.

I'm also going through same situation than you but a bit behind. I'm 33 with 2 kids and want to have new books in August but.. I dont know which clinic or doctor to choose.. Did you find a good one? Recommended? Will you choose clinic or hospital like St antonius? Any recommendation for me pleaseee
June 2, 2015
I'm interested in your journey .I've been wanting a BA for some time now and by the end of the year I'll be moving to Papendrecht Netherlands to live with my fiancé. I don't know of any good doctors over there or how to find them :/ I wish you the best of luck.
June 3, 2015
Hey there! I'll post as much as I can here. I promise. As good doctors, yes I know some. Please send me a private message if you'd like to know more. Thanks for your support! :)
June 4, 2015
OMG! That's exactly want I have been doing! Even this morning! Stayed up till 2:00 reading posts on Realself and then got back on at 5:30 when my husband left for work. My surgery is Monday and it's all I can think about!!
June 4, 2015
I too want to keep them small, I am athletic and still want to fit into my tops and dresses. I took the rice test and really liked the 8oz... So I am getting 285cc textured silicone. Hoping since I am completely flat right now that it will give me a full B... I would be ok if they are a small C since I am 6'0 I think it will still look small on me which is what I want. Fingers crossed for Monday!!

Just posted on your review, I'm so so excited for you, keep us updated how it goes okay! Are you going for round/anatomical? And which profile? Xx
June 4, 2015
Thanks girl, I was going to do the tear drop shaped so they would look even natural till my doctor told me they could flip upside down and they are like 2,000 more... So I said I would be paying more to risk them turning out upside down?!! No thanks! So I am getting round... Not sure which profile, I don't remember us even discussing those choices so I guess I am getting moderate if that's the norm.
June 4, 2015
I'm also getting round! The thing is that my ps is so into teardrop, so thats a little discouraging but I wouldnt like a rotation when i'm being hyperactive (like as always lol). Im getting high profile i guess as i'm very narrow and flat chested.. Pfew, why was I born this way..
Glad you started your own pre op review to help you with your research. Here are some important questions to ask during your consults. Be sure to comment on member's review that you like so they can easily find and support you. We'd love to see any wish boob pictures you may have collected!
