I want to post my specs and info to help women visualize what my journey was like with my BA and hopefully this will answer some questions! I am not a doctor.. I am a patient and I will be undergoing a BA/ Areolar Lift on my left breast and light Lipo on each side of my armpits or "side boob".

I am 24 Years Old, 150Lbs and stand at 5'7" tall.
Implant Size: 450cc
Before Breast Size: 36B
After Breast Size: ??? (projecting a Full 36DD-small 36DD)
Implant type: Mentor Memory Gel, Round, Moderate Plus
Implant Incision: "Underneath breast" Inframammary Fold?
Implant location: Sub Muscular

They will be rising my left nipple, lifting my breast 2cm.
And I have opted for light Lipo on that pesky "boob fat" next to your armpit. Yes, ladies you can have this done with your BA!!!!

I have a wide chest frame, so I chose Moderate Plus so that the base is a little wider on my frame and look more natural! I wanted to go a little larger because I know I will fall into the Boob Greed category after surgery. My surgeon said I may lose about 10cc on each breast, due to them going Sub Muscular. So I will be truer to 435-440cc! This still fits my frame without being "TOO BIG".

Ask me anything you like for my opinion! I will Post AFTER PHOTOS once I undergo Surgery next week!!!!!

Good Luck to all of you out there making this decision! I am super excited!

You're so welcome! I'll post some more pics and before and afters on Friday!! Yey!

Good luck to you! Looking forward to seeing your after pics. I also have "side boob/arm pit" fat despite being fit/lean. I'm still thinking about a BA but if I do go through with it I will definitely want this area taken care of as well. I'm curious how the recovery goes in addition to a BA.

Thank you so much! And I have always been so self conscious about it ever since i was in high school . before I even asked my consultant about getting it removed when we were looking at my "before pictures".. She asked if i wanted to correct that. Apparently we aren't the only two out here looking to get this done and is becoming a must have with BA. They say it is a very teeny tiny insertion and could cause more bruising when recovering obviously. But more or less same healing process as BA and doesn't add to much discomfort. But I'll definitely let you know how my experience is with that! I'm sure it will be rough, but soooooo worth it! I wish you luck with your journey as well!! Xx

Call me crazy, I think you look great just the way you are. If I had your breasts, I'd be pleased and wouldn't do a thing.
But apparently, you're not happy with them so I wish you luck. Just wish you could see them with my eyes and you wouldn't have to go through this!

Well I definitely appreciate that!!!!! But yes it is just a personal thing I suppose and bad body image that doesn't help! Haha thank you though for your kind words!

What size/ type of sports bra will I need post op!?!

User Avatar

I am starting at 36B... and I have never worn a sports bra in my life! So I don't even know what size I would be now! I am getting 450cc in both breasts and my Doctor says I will be between a 36D to 36DD. Should I plan on buying bigger to accommodate for the possible DD size? I just want to make sure I have enough support and am comfortable! HALP!

Thanks all!

If you buy the Coobie bra, got mine on Amazon for $15-$20 depending on the style/color and it fits a range of sizes if you select one size fits all. It fits me like a glove and sooo comfy and now I'm currently a 34D! They do sell it at their office also if you don't want to get it online.

You think since i am a 36b going with 450cc that i will be a 36d? I am so debating on going bigger!!!!! To make sure i am a D!

You need to try on rice sizers about 25-50cc less so you can see what the 450cc implants will look like behind the muscle. Since you can lose up to 50cc. In March 2015 I had 400cc filled to 420cc mod+ & exchanged them to 550cc filled to 600cc in December & they look so much better! I thought the 420cc was going to make me huge! Nope they were way too small. So play around with smaller rice sizers so you know the size you'll end up with. If you want a DD you might want to go with 500cc.

Hi! Thanj you so much! So since i am 5 days away from surgery, I can't change my size without them charging me but thank you! I know j will love 450ccs!!!

Based on my size, plus I was small than u, it sounds like you should be at least a D. That was also my goal and I made sure I told him that. He worked his magic and I'm a perfect D using 440 implants. I had a firmer implant too therefore my skin/ muscles weren't compressing the implants as much as the softer or saline implants do. Make sure you express this to him :)

I'm a D or DD now with 475 and 500 cc high profile. I was only an A to start. It seems about right that yours would get you to a D or more.

NERVES ARE WRECKED! BUT... sooooooooooo Excited. I have been googling non stop in search of women who started off with the same measurements and have the same type of implant. Let me tell you, it has been a CHORE. But that is why I make my review... to hopefully help someone with my measurements, see if the size I get will be too big or too small! I hope mine are perfect for what I want. I should be going from a 36B to a 36D or even Maybe 36DD with again the 450cc Silicone Memory Gel "Gummy Bear" Moderate Plus Implants!!!!! Cross those fingers!


Also, I posted some more BEFORE PHOTOS!!! To help you see my transformation clearer.

Feel free to ask any questions you have!! :)
Good luck to all of you women seeking the new you!!!

Best of wishes on your surgery! I had mine yesterday and I'm in love, even though they're still wonky and weird. I can't wait to see how mine look in a few weeks. I did 475 and 500 hp silicone mentor bc I have a narrow bwd.
