About 9 years ago I went to a consultation and decided to wait to have breast augmentation since the doctor then recommended me to wait until after I was finished having children....so now I have 2 children and I think we're done having kids. I'm 31 and excited to change my B cup to something more substantial. I'm not wanting to go too crazy, but bigger. I've ALWAYS worn padded bras, I've ALWAYS been self conscious about being small chested. I've wanted boobs since I was 14 and they never really came in. I was an A cup until having children. While breast feeding, I'm sure i was a C or D. I loved the way that looked. Now I'm finally at a point where I can do something about it! Wohoo! So the journey starts here.
I am 24 days away from my surgery. I am 9 days away from my pre-op appointment. I feel like time is going so slowly! I'm excited, nervous and scared.

My Consultation
I called Dr. Butler & talked with Angela on the phone. She said the consultation fee is $100 ($50 will go towards the procedure, if you choose to go through with it). She said the consultation will be an hour or longer. They'll do the vectra 3D imaging, give me an exact quote (his fee & hospital). So I had called May 21 and scheduled my consultation for June 20th. They were booking a month in advance for the consultation.
On May 23, I received a packet from them in the mail. I was so excited to receive information from them.
On May 31st, I realized June 20th seemed like forever away. I'm the type of person who does research and wants to learn as much as I can as fast as I can. I'm ready to meet with Dr. Butler. I want to hear what he has to say. So I called today to see if they could move up the consultation. Angela said their schedule changes all the time...She would make sure my name is on the move up list. So they might call me the morning of and have an opening.
June 3, I got a CALL!!!
11:15am I arrived, turned in my paperwork and paid the $100.
Nurse came in and asked basic questions.
Vectra system: I posed for pictures with the nurse.
Consultation
- nice room, 4 chairs, round table
- got to touch the implants. They were squishier than I thought. Not as hard. They're pretty pliable. Got to touch the gummy bears and the silicone
- The gummy bears are anatomical in shape and firmer
- The silicone feel SOOOO real and nice
- My hubby squeezed the heck out of one and it didn't break
Dr. Butler came in and basically:
- He recommended an under breast incision because he can see exactly where the implant is going
- He recommends under the muscle
- He HIGHLY recommends the cohesive gel natrelle implants over the gummy bears and I was surprised.
MOVED TO THE EXAM ROOM
- he took my chest measurements
- He said my left boob's chest wall is out and bigger than my right
VECTRA
- when we 1st looked at the vectra, he made the cc's 533. I thought the vectra would be helpful for me to see myself with bigger breasts. Unfortunately it wasn't. The vectra made my boobs look just bigger. Any size looks bigger to me. It was hard for me to differentiate the sizers. I'm looking forward to trying them on.
