Decided on BA/BL... over just the BL alone WAS so Indecisive. EXTREMELY HAPPY - Paradise Valley, AZ
ORIGINAL POST
I am a 27 year old with one son (6yrs old). 5'6...
WORTH IT$10,600
I am a 27 year old with one son (6yrs old). 5'6 and 140lbs(but will be back to my preferred of 150lbs shortly) I always had large breast for my small frame (34D/DD) but as the years passed these boobs of mine seem to be falling more and more. I have never been able wear backless/strapless shirts as no strapless bra could ever hold up my juggs. I originally wanted to just get implants to give myself some upper pole fullness and wanted to stay far away from a lift as the thought of scarring terrifies me. So finally I went to a PS in June to do a consultation. The doctor I went to does amazing work, but I felt like he was rushing me and didn't connect with me the way I like to do when i am shelling out thousands of $$$. Can you blame me for wanting to feel like more than just a number? Anyway... The first doctor told me that all i needed was a lift and no implant. I was disappointed to say the least.
As the summer went on I contemplated it more and more and more. I did some more research and came across Dr. Cohen's website and was thoroughly impressed by the number of quality before/after pics he had. His work looked impeccable. After that I researched reviews about him and felt comforted that patient after patient gushed about how happy they were with his office, the staff, and his craft, I finally scheduled a consultation with him. During my visit to his office, the staff was very kind and welcoming. Dr. Cohen didn't rush me at all and always asked me if I had any questions. Now to my frustration, he to recommended i do just a lift, and that i didn't need the implant. UGHHHH... He did say that i could do both if i chose to and it wouldnt be any problem at all but he just didn't feel like i needed it. So in any event, I felt confused as I left his office about what i would end up doing. So for the last couple days I have gone back and forth about both options. I am happy with my size although i would like to go bigger if i got the opportunity. With just a BL I am nervous about the possibility of losing some of my tissue and looking any smaller. Also, over time (who knows how soon) gravity could still get the best of me and leave me saggy and sad. The Plus side to it though, is that it doesn't require me HAVE to have another surgery down the line where as the BA would. We all know that implants dont last forever, so I would need to get them changed out at some point.
Through my life experiences I have learned to live in the now and appreciate today. And that is the attitude that makes me just want to go for it and get some additional boobage. Who knows what the future holds?? the next 10 years are going to be the prime of my life, so I figure I should look my best. I do want to have another child sometime down the line but I am not planning anything soon soooo.... I will cross that bridge when I get there. Oh boy, What to do??....What to do?? Its so super late right now, I have been up reading other ppl stories and researching as per usual. I need sleep. Good night Boob babes!

Thank you for starting your journey on RealSelf. Many women your age enjoy a lift with a small implant, especially when they are accustomed to having full breasts like yourself. On the other hand, many women find it a huge bonus not to have to deal with implants. You're lucky but you're not, as it sounds like you have a choice whereas most women don't. You could do a lift now and maybe implants in 10 years when gravity really does kick in. Your wish boob photos have fairly full breasts. Has your PS seen these? Keep us posted...is your surgery really next week?

You sound like my PS. He said the same thing "I am lucky, but I'm not"..lol... I have showed my PS. some photos. Not these ones. But i will on my pre-op appointment this wednesday. And yes my surgery is next week Tuesday!!! I am excited. Not nervous yet, but i have anxiety so I know that the nerves will be kicking in shortly.

Thanks for posting the pics. I'm so excited for you as I know you'll soon be marching around naked in front of every possible mirror in your home! How did the pre op appointment go? Did you determine a final size? Did you hand over your saving? You'll be poor but sexy so don't worry! ;)

7 days pre
Decided. I will Be getting implants!!
I am so thankful for this site. Reading your stories has helped me beyond measure. So after days and nights of researching and looking at the stories of so many brave ladies, I have decided to GET IMPLANTS!! I only live once. I want to have larger full sexy boobs. Thankfully, PS is a master ant making breast look natural so I have complete faith in him that he will do me justice. So I am now leaving to go to get my blood work done. And make my final payment. I am super excited... I will upload my before pics when i get home today.
