Hello! My name is Leslie and for the past few years I have completed extensive research in regards to deciding between mastopexy and Aug or mastopexy alone. I have a significant amount of breast tissue which starts me off with a full c to d cup. I've met with my PS a few times in the past few years. Since I have so much breast tissue and I'm still young enough to have pretty dense tissue I have decided to go with a saline implant under the muscle with a high profile because I particularly love the look of fake boobs. If you love natural looking then I can tell you love, you're reading the wrong review. :) I'm currently scheduled for my pre op appointment on 6/3. 31 days away!!! So excited. The only bummer is I'm currently addicted to the gym so staying away from weight lifting during recovery is going to be such a drag but I've waited long enough to do this!

Hey, I see that your pre-OP is on June 3rd. What's your surgery date? Mine is June 5th. :)

I have a review with more specifics, but yes, I'm getting a lift with implants. I'm getting silicone though. I also have lots of breast tissue, so saline probably would have been a fine choice for me. I liked the idea of silicone gel not deflating even when punctured though. Do you know how many ccs you'll be getting?

I did take a moment to go read yours. Good for you! Not sure on the CD's yet. Won't know until pre op and haven't tried rice sizers yet. But will soon. Another reason I chose saline is because I will know if they deflate. PS's usually order Breast mri's to rule rupture yearly and most insurances do not cover. Those imaging appointments are so expensive. Anywhere from 2500 to 4000

Oh wow. I didn't realize that the MRIs were so expensive. I know my PS recommends getting them every 3 years, but that's still a lot of money every 3 years. I'll look into that more. Thanks for the info!

I just checked with my insurance to see if they cover the MRIs, and the website said they do cover them annually starting at age 30. I'll be 30 next July, so as long as I stay with my current insurance I will be okay. It's still something that I hadn't really thought about before, so I'm glad you mentioned it.

Besides the little asymmetry of the nipples, this is the look I'm going for. I'm 5'9 and weigh around 200. So having larger breast on myself should go with my body type.
