So glad you're sharing your journey with us! It's great your original implants lasted so long. I agree, you still have some wonderful shape but I can see the look you are going for has a bit more fullness. Can't wait to see your results! Keep us posted on your PS selection!

BethH you are so sweet and so encouraging to everyone on here! I cannot believe the support this community gives to one another. When I was expecting my last child I had to get off so many boards because the women were ridiculous and judgmental!!! I'm so excited for my upcoming BA revision and I will definitely keep the updates coming. Thanks again for running a great community!!! YEAH BOOBIES!!! (•)(•)

I'm in the same boat as you. I've had one revision but did not achieve upper pole fullness I was looking for. Will your doc be doing any inner pocket work, or are you simply going bigger?
November 6, 2016
I am simply going bigger. I had a consult almost 2 years ago where the PS talked about inner pocket work because the right pocket is a little large (too much massaging I guess) but no other surgeon has suggested needing to do so. I think going from 325/340 cc to 625cc may take care of it. Are you looking at doing another revision? What are your stats?

You look so young. I would have never guess your 47. Maybe you meant to say 27.

I'm still trying to decide btwn 2 PSs ugh!
They both are great and have gotten positive reviews from friends that have used them both
My only concern is the office staff and nurse
The more expensive quote ($1200) has an amazing staff AND love the nurse
The other is ok staff and the nurse was kinda rude (just really matter of fact/no warm fuzzies lol)
So fellow BA ladies...what would you do???

I LOVE my PS and his staff are awesome, I would go with your gut and spend a little more for it. Remember the nurses are the ones you will see the more after surgery.

I hope you're feeling well (I know today was surgery day) but just wanted to update...
I went with the ps w/the rude nurse. she's still rude but the PS was a tad better than the other and I can put up w/rudeness but I can't put up with bad boobs! (•)(•)

I am feeling pretty good for it being just 48 hours! I have new pictures to post, my breasts are pretty high so I am not alarmed as that is how they were before. They will drop and we went with the : gummy bear" implants 400 CC's which look the same to me when I had 450 cc's. When is your surgery???
December 3, 2016
Good to hear! Can't wait to see pics. December 9th is my D day or should I say DD day lol My final consultation was Thursday and not sure of ccs yet but going UHP textured Mentor implant under.
November 9, 2016
And that's where I'm torn!!! My gut says the PS with the rude nurse but the other PS I felt so welcomed and encouraged But the price difference is $1200!!
