Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Before pictures, stats, additional first consultation notes.
Adding before pictures for reference.
Side note: I really did not realize how asymmetrical they were until I took these straight on pictures. I wonder if the left implant would need to be smaller to ensure that they're as symmetrical as possible. I'm not looking for miracles, I know that I'll probably still have some asymmetry but we can try for perfect. Right?
Stats:
5'2"
150ish pounds - have been losing weight and have a goal to be at 135 pound for the surgery.
I wear a 36B but they DO NOT fit properly. The straps slip, the band is tight, my boobs barely fill the cups. I'm hoping to be at a healthy C or small D.
First consultation follow up notes:
1) I suspected that I had tuberous breasts but the first doctor did not mention that to me. I should have asked but I was so anxious and nervous and afraid to speak up. Note to self: speak the [RS bleep] up next time. Seriously, guys, speak up. I'm going to ask ALL of the questions with the next two doctors. Even if I have to sweat my way through it. The last consultation I have is with the top rated surgeon of 2016 :)
2) The first doctor noted that I would still have space between my breasts because of my natural anatomy but that it could be slightly corrected with the right implant size, placement, profile etc. Feeling good about that and I'm not too concerned as long as it's not a freakish gap.
3) I need to call them back and ask them about what revisions they cover and under what circumstances. This is a VERY important question to ask. I wasn't inspired to ask until after my visit, sadly. Though I might not have asked due to nerves anyways.
Sigh.

First Consultation
I had my first consultation yesterday. It was free, so that was nice, but I only met with the doctor and nurse and discussed which procedure I would be interested in based on the doctors feedback. First quote is for $8050 for a lift with implants.
Ugh. The FIRST thing that doctor commented on when I pulled the gown back was the fact that my breasts have stretch marks. What the [RS bleep] lol. I've had the same purple/white stretch mark at the top of each breast since I GOT breasts. I'm not that bothered by them, honestly. With any stretch mark, sometimes they are noticable and sometimes they are not. I haven't really tried to fade them out because sometimes they are barely visible but I think I'm going to start a cocoa butter regime for the girls in case I get more if/when I have the surgery. Like I said, not that bothered by stretch marks at this junction in life but I would like to avoid them if I can.
As suspected, my nipples sit too low to just pop an implant in. I mean, I could. I wouldn't achieve my desired look though.
This doctor suggested implants with a lift. The lift would be slight. I don't need a lollipop lift, so he suggested lifting by removing and re-positioning (I think?) the nipple. The implant would go under the breast fold and would be sub-muscular.
I am pretty hesitant about sub-muscular because of flex deformity but it seems to be the preferred method for a lot of doctors and this doctor in particular. Flex deformity SEEMS like a relatively easy revision?
I'm pretty disappointed that I couldn't try some sizers or that they didn't have the 3D imaging like other places do. With this doctor, you pick the size one week before the surgery. I'm going to make my own sizers over the weekend so that I can start thinking about what would be the best size for me.
My friend pointed out that I only seem to be focused on what could go wrong and not thinking about the fact that I could end up just fine and enjoy my new boobs for years to come. She's right but it's very hard to get out of your own head when it comes to something like this.
My boobs now are not the worst and it's hard to think that I could potentially be screwing with something that I should be lucky to have.
I'm still 85% yes on the procedure though.
I have two more consultation on February 1st and then I'll decide. I'm hoping to have the surgery mid March if it ends up being the right decision for me.

It’s the year of the Dirty 30 and I’ve been a fla...
It’s the year of the Dirty 30 and I’ve been a flat chested vixen since the day I was born. I’ve been tossing around the idea of breast implants ever since I accepted that this is what I was going to get naturally.
For the longest time I’ve just been trying to accept them but I find myself at a place in life where I’m able to do something extravagant for myself and plastic surgery is first on my list. Aside from implants, I also want to suck out my double chin (thanks, Mom!) and get Botox in my pits. But boobs. Boobs are coming first.
My breasts sit very far apart and are low on my body. My nipple sits lower on my left breast and is kind of tubular and puffy when not hard. It also kind of sags to the center of my chest when I bend over. The nipple on my right breast sits a little more evenly but still very low. I’ve never had much volume and my breasts have always looked flat and deflated. The only time they look “normal” is when my nipples are hard. They seem to even out a bit but you still can’t hide the fact that they’re lacking volume and shape.
Honestly, my biggest concern is the shape. I’ve always messed around in the mirror; giving myself little lifts with my fingers and I’ve found that I don’t mind them AS much when they’re perky. They’re still too wide, in my opinion, and who wouldn’t love a full breast?! My BIGGEST gripe about the size is that I can’t find a bra that fits to save my life.
I’m grappling between just getting a lift, implants or a lift with implants if the implants alone won’t help correct the shape.
Obviously there are more PROs with just the lift IF I can achieve a better shape with just that procedure. The idea of suffering a complication or waking up and being even more unhappy gives me a lot of anxiety.
Also, yoga is my primary form of exercise and stress management and I’m worried that implants will interfere with my practice.
And then, in my heart of hearts, I really just want a nice, full set of boobs. If I’m going to go under and go into debt, I feel like I may as well just get a great pair and enjoy them while I’m young and moving into my prime.
I’m. Just. Terrified.
I’m primarily worried that I’ll wake up and not like what I see, regardless of procedure, and I will have spent all of that money for nothing.
I want, just once, to take my shirt and bra off in front of my partner and feel sexy and confident.
