22 Years Old, No Kids, Breast Augmentation with Lift, Cannot Wait to Finally Feel Great About Myself! - Pearl River, NY

Hi, everyone! So, I've been using this site constantly since I've learned about it a few months ago. I made an account as soon as I had my consultation with my surgeon. I never made any posts, but I decided to finally share my story and break the silence.

Ever since my breasts started to develop, they never looked right. They are extremely uneven (one being a D cup and the other about an A cup), and they sag a lot. I never knew what it was it was like to have nice, perky, normal shaped breasts. So after years of considering surgery to help with my poor, sad breasts, I finally decided that I had enough. I thought about it long enough (about 3 or 4 years), and if I never took that first leap, I would be stuck forever wondering "what if." Immediately after I made my decision, I started making appointments for consultations. In the end, I decided to chose Dr. Michael A. Fiorillo.

I had my consultation in December with Dr. Fiorillo and instantly loved the place and people. It was a cozy office and everyone was considerate of my opinions. I told them that I wanted to go a bit bigger in general, while also getting rid of the horrible asymmetry that I have. Dr. Fiorillo explained the whole procedure for me, but told me that because the asymmetry and sagging of my breasts were so severe, that there is a possibility that they won't come out how I envision them. I was a little sad hearing that I might not ever get the perfect breasts I've wanted forever, but I kind of saw that coming due to my understanding of the severity of asymmetry and sagging. In the end, I'll just be glad that they'll hopefully be somewhat close to what I wanted!

After a couple of weeks, I decided to call them up and schedule my surgery on the date we had previously discussed, which was July 13th. It's coming up so fast! I made the appointment back in December, and it's already May! I'm really excited, but also nervous the closer my surgery date comes. I've also been on a diet and lost quite a bit of weight! I want to be in the best shape possible before my surgery, so wish me luck! I'll post my before pictures as soon as I get around to taking them.

Oh man, the closer and closer my surgery date is coming, the more of an emotional roller coaster ride it's becoming! I go from being super excited, to extremely scared in an instant. I begin to question myself and if I really want to go through with this decision. Then I come to the conclusion that I want to do this.

My boyfriend must be thinking I'm going nuts. However, he just keeps reminding me of how much I really love him the closer my surgery date comes. As much as I keep talking about my surgery and all of my concerns and wishes, he always listens to them and offers me advice and his shoulder to lean on. He must be so tired of listening to me freak out about my surgery, but never shows it. He truly is an amazing guy.

So, I've been pretty happy with my weight loss so far. I haven't hit my goal weight just yet, but I'm closer than I was before. I finally hit the 50 pound mark, but still have 30 more to go. I know I really wanted to be at my goal weight before my surgery, but I'm beginning to realize that it won't happen. However, once I'm able to lose weight again after the surgery, I will make sure that I'll get there.

I also got all of my paperwork from the surgeon's center. There's so much of it! I read through it yesterday and man, was it overwhelming. I have to initial so much, but oh well. Getting the paperwork really opened my eyes to how fast approaching the surgery is. I remember thinking, back in December when I had my consultation, that July 13th is so far away. My pre-op is on the 27th of this month, so in exactly 2 weeks, I'll most likely post again with more information.

Included with this review, I finally decided to upload my own pictures of my breasts. I really hope that the day will come when I can look back on these photos and can't believe that they used to look like that. I apologize that they aren't the best photos I could take (I took them with my phone, by myself), but they at least give a general idea of what they look like. Until then, wish me luck with this emotional roller coaster ride!

I know I just updated, but I forgot to add some more photos! So included in this update, I will include some wish pictures, along with the 3D Imaging photos my surgeon emailed me a while back. It includes a before picture, and a (possible) after picture. I get excited every time I see it!
