4/18/17 - I am officially two weeks out from my BA and am conflicted on sizing. I have Crisalix results ranging from 400 - 550 cc, and would love feedback! I've decided to go with round, Sientra gummy bear implants under the muscle.

Hi! Dr Obaid is my PS too! My surgery is scheduled for May 5th! What are your stats?
April 19, 2017
Hi! We definitely need to keep in touch! I don't remember my stats, though.
April 19, 2017
For sure! No I just mean how tall you are and how much you weigh! :)
April 19, 2017
Oh, sorry! In the pictures, I was 115 lbs, but I'll be around 125 lbs at surgery! I'm 5'6".
April 19, 2017
We are pretty similar, I think all the sizes from 400-500 would look good, based off the 3D image that is! You could carry more CCs depending on the look you're going for and you're pretty tall. Which are you leaning towards? Can't wait to see your results and hear about your experience!!
April 20, 2017
Thanks for taking a look! I'm glad to have an objective opinion! Really leaning toward 500 right now - I want to balance out my relatively wide hipbones. Have you firmly decided on size?
April 21, 2017
Yes I want proportionate as well! I've decided on 355cc moderates plus but as I still don't know my BWD, I'm not entirely sure if I may end up with less since I'm pretty petite. So I guess we'll see! I just want a little bit of curve and to fill back in what I lost breastfeeding.
April 21, 2017
Nice! I'm super paranoid of choosing the wrong size, so it's comforting that Dr. Obaid will be able to make the call in the room using sizers. Happy 2 weeks out!
May 6, 2017
How are you feeling? My surgery with Dr. Obaid was around 1:45-2 yesterday. I ended up with 435cc's... excited to take off this bra and look at them, even though results will change over the next 6-8 weeks.
May 6, 2017
My surgery was at 10:30am with Dr Obaid and it went really well! I'm feeling better today! I took the bra off and I'm really happy with them. I think I ended up with the 355ccs
May 6, 2017
Awesome;) Dr. Obaid called me last night and said he did SEVEN augmentations yesterday. I love how much experience he has and the new techniques he uses to keep us from having any complications.
April 25, 2017
Ha! My surgery is also on May 5th with Dr Obaid. I'm 5'5, 130lbs...& also torn. I decided 400 at appointment but wonder if I should bump it to 450! I'm not totally flat now, but need volume from nursing 3 kids. Were you told he would help get perfect size right before the surgery?
April 25, 2017
You surgery is on the 5th with him too? That's awesome! Maybe we'll see each other at the facility, lol! I haven't heard yet about times though and am hoping they call soon. I read your post and can totally relate. I have a 20 month old and I am so nervous about not being able to lift her or anything bc she is very "mommyfied" right now and always wants to be with me and on me. That's been the hardest part for me about making this decision. I am currently getting the 350cc Textured Round but he did tell me that he has all of the sizers there and we will go over everything again with measurements, etc. I really want the Mod Plus profile but I won't know if I can get that until the day of surgery. I'm 5'4 110lbs so I don't want anything too big.
April 25, 2017
Also are you having a breast lift as well? I know you said you are getting the Ideal Implant but I didn't know if a lift was needed based on your other post.
April 25, 2017
Yes!! Too crazy to see 2 others on here with same doctor & day. We will have to stay connected as we all recover together. I actually chose the 400 silicone & unlike others, he feels I'll like my results without the lift. I agree... using round 400 will pull things up. I've never had large breasts so there's not a lot of tissue to fill. Excited & super nervous!
April 25, 2017
Agreed! I'm super excited too! Yes he told me I would be good without a lift as well which I was happy to hear! And yes I'm nervous too!!

Your just the day after me, looking forward to following your progress. Best of wishes xx

Yay! I guess we all three have new boobies together & are in recovery! I'm feeling pretty good... able to move my arms all around & easily get up out of chair, etc. but I can't open my prescription bottles! Lol. Hope you're feeling good!!!
May 6, 2017
I'm so glad to hear that!! I've found that pushing the end of the prescription bottle against a wall, then turning helps! Best of luck to you in recovery!!
May 6, 2017
Oh good. I didn't try a wall. Just waited for hubby to return home & open all of them. How are you feeling? I expected to feel SO much worse based on everything I read... slept like a baby in my recliner chair and woke up with only a little soreness up top. Can lift my arms and even wash my own hair if I needed to. Wild how everyone recovers so differently.
May 6, 2017
Oh, girl, you're so lucky. I can't even dream of washing my own hair right now. I can't even pull my own underwear up! Did you go under the muscle?
May 6, 2017
I'm feeling pretty good too and can semi lift my arms! I want to wash my hair so much too! Lol
May 6, 2017
Wow really? What size did you get? I'm assuming my recovery is so easy b/c he only did 435 cc's? I take the meds just like our sheet says. But yeah I could totally take a shower on my own;/ I've heard each woman recovers differently. I've had 3 kids, so I read that helps.... and smaller cc size helps. And yes, I went under the muscle... & I had strong muscles since I carry a 20lb baby all day every day. I'm in shock at how I feel. Was hoping you guys felt like I did!
May 6, 2017
Glad you're feeling pretty good!! What size did you end up getting? I expected to be in SO much pain and unable to lift my arms over my head for days, but apparently what I read was true... every woman's response varies.
May 6, 2017
I think I'm the oddball out! I definitely don't have much chest strength, so that probably contributed. I got 505 in each breast starting with very little breast tissue and no kids, so I'm thinking the skin stretching is playing a large part. So glad to hear you both are doing so well!!

How tall are you?

I am so incredibly happy with my surgery. I won't get to see the finished product until I shower on Thursday, but I can't stop staring at them! Regarding the sizing dilemma, I ended up with 505 cc in each breast. As wimpy as it sounds, I was most worried about the starting of the IV (needles are scary, etc.). That being said, Dr. Obaid and his team are AMAZING. I've never felt so well taken care of in a medical situation. Honestly, after the IV was in, I went into the room with no fear. Waking up, I was in a lot of pain. I expected some, but this was intense. Breathing was incredibly difficult, as well. The first few hours after surgery were pretty rough, but thankfully the anesthesia helped with sleeping on and off. My surgery was around 10:00 a.m. It's currently 7:00 p.m. and I feel so much better. I'm so so so happy with my results! I'll post pictures when I change into a regular sports bra on 5/4.

Awesome;). I'm about to have mine tomorrow. I wonder why the pain was so intense? Did the pain meds just not work, I wonder??
May 4, 2017
I've determined that I just have a really low pain tolerance. I'm really curious to see how you feel! Please keep me posted. Today has been a good pain day, though! I got to see them!
May 4, 2017
Great. Did you just create a review & then you posted updates under your review? Super helpful so I'll do with my journey, as well!
May 5, 2017
Yes! Good luck to you tomorrow! Please feel free to reach out if you'd like to talk about recovery!
