My BA surgery w/ small lift is next week! I Feel so overwhelmed by all the flood of info out there!! I'am a small B 38b-28-40 and want proportion. I'm "still" trying to decide between Sientra 695cc & Mentor 800cc I prefer Sientra cohesiveness, reputation but the sizer looked just right on my frame snd I want something more noticeable.
The nurse recommended mentor due to me liking larger size but I also want long lasting implant but I'm also nervous because I've read it is better to have a internal bra w/ larger inplants which my PS did not mention and he did not seem concerned about me wanting larger size? He is very reputable, my friends and their cousins have gone to him and people from out of state come here all the time for surgery but I'm having second thoughts on my surgery.

Thanks did you have more than one BA? I noticed others with multiple surgeries had faster recoveries on their other BA's.

So I have a appt. at 9:30 am w/ my PS to go over some questions I still have and to finally pick a size and brand of implant.
As of right now I think I'm leaning towards the bigger Mentor 800cc although I really like the Sientra cohesiveness. :-/
I have read too many times how everyone has "boob greed" after surgery. So I guess it's better to Go big! or what's the point? Lol

I picked this person I believe her name is Ashley Alexiss? because we have similar body types (very curvy, short/small waisted w/ big hips) although I think she looks shorter than me but In better shape. Lol :'( Hopefully after my surgery I will have motivation to get back into shape. ;)
