I can't wait to have my BA with Dr. Desai! Though I waited over an hour for my consult it was well worth it. Truth is he wasn't available for a consult until the end of the month but the woman who booked my appointment after asking him first squeezed me in. When I did get to pick his brain for a second time, since we met before under different circumstances, I was so happy I waited! He is very attentive and really knows how to discover what you want by asking his patients very important questions to understand your personal goals. He cares about giving you what you want and it shows. He also puts your health first which makes me very happy I chose him to be my surgeon. So far, so good!

I can't wait to have my BA with Dr. Desai! Though...
This Friday is the day...
I wasn't nervous until now. I decided on 425ccs and am starting to wonder if that's too big. I wanted to be a C cup and now I'm wondering if they will be too big as they get settle in. I don't want to look ridiculous! I am currently barely filling a b cup bra at VS so I hope I made the right choice since I read 200 ccs is the equivalent of one full cup size.
Excited, I Did It!
Dr. Desai and his staff were warm and attentive to all my needs. I
will continue to monitor my progress but so far so great! Pain meds are
helpful for sure but I am overall excited and happy I went with Dr.
Desai for my augmentation. I chose 400ccs and went with a moderate plus
profile under the muscle. Mentor memory gel implants

1 week post-op
It's been a week and I have to address the things people don't seem to talk about. My pain is less but the discomfort continues. I don't like to take a bunch of medication so that may be part of it but there is definitely sharp tingling pain that comes with the healing process. I'm happy the elephant that was on my chest finally decided to go sit somewhere else lol. That heavy weight on my chest is definitely gone so I'm happy about that. My nipples do perk up for no reason at all but I'm glad the work :-) I will say as of today I don't feel like I have breasts yet. It's an unusual thing but they just don't feel like they are mine yet. There is some numbness but it's only been a week. I started massaging them yesterday and now it's time to attack the appearance of this scar. I just can't wait for them to drop because they really are super high and still swollen of course. I've included a photo. Good luck to all!
I love them
I am happy with the size I decided on. Healing is getting easier. Learning how to sleep upright is never going to happen. Started sleeping sitting up but a bit sideways as a compromise. Scars are going to take a while to heal. They are starting to soften so massaging is getting a little easier though pushing them down is still a challenge. So far so good though, I love them!
Beginning to get used to the new me
This journey has had its ups and slight down. It takes time for you to accept your new body image. After all the excitement of the process you have to begin becoming accustomed to how different clothes are and bra shopping is super challenging but can be fun. I'm at the two month mark this week and finally feel like the boobs are really mine. Different companies will tell you you are different sizes but don't get stuck on numbers. I love my new boobs and can say confidently the pain is all gone! Thanks to Dr. Desai for helping me be able to see the version of myself I always wanted.
Sometimes you do have to help them along
I forgot to mention a few points. At my follow-up appointment after 1 month my implants were still high and I read online about using a band to help push them down. Before you try anything please be sure to ask for your surgeon's imput first. After speaking with Dr. Desai suggested I wait another 2 weeks and continue massaginh my normal twice a day before I try to use a band. He gave one to me in case I needed it and now that I am 2 months out he feels that the results have improved. I decided to wear the band periodically for 3 weeks and it made a huge difference. I've included some pictures of me from yesterday's bra shopping. Feel free to ask me anything if needed.
Attentive and takes safety very seriously. For him your health comes first which is really important.
