So, I have been researching BA for years, husband is very supportive. I decided to have my kids first and then get them done. So now that we are done having kids I'm ready. I chose Dr DeConti since many of my friends have been to him and had good results. I had my consultation on 9/25, and scheduled my preop for 10/2 and surgery for 10/8.
I do have some concerns, when I spoke to my ps he recommended 350-390 cc under the muscle saline, didn't talk about profile. Well, I'm thinking more along the lines of 500-550 HP saline under the muscle. I've waited a long time for this and I don't want to spend a ton of money and then be unhappy with my size. I'm hoping when I have my pre op I can try on sizers and I will feel better about my decision.
My stats 5'6", 135lbs, currently wear 34B VS bombshell push up bras all the time :(

What size ???

So I posted a question for the docs on here and they bring up a lot of good points, 500cc is a lot of weight. I really don't want to have a lift 5 years down the road. I do want to go up in size significantly. I have my sizing/pre op apt on Thursday so I think I will have a much better understanding of how the different sizes will look on me.

Have you tried making rice sizers at home? Although they are not accurate, they can help give you a general idea of size. Also, you might want to collect a few wish boob pictures that you can share with your doctor to make sure you're both on the same page regarding your results. Feel free to share any wish boob pictures here in your review too. Can't wait to hear how your pre op goes on Thursday!

So I had my pre op apt today, tried on several different sizes and decided on 550 cc also decided to do tell instead of saline. My PS came in afterword and measured me and recommended something more like 450-475cc due to my size. He measured me and since I'm mostly concerned with projection he showed me that there is only .5cm difference between a 500 and 475, the 500 is just wider which would probably give me too much side boob.
I trust my PS so I'm happy to go with the 475 Natrelle Gel high profile under the muscle implants. My surgery is scheduled for Wednesday at 8:30am so I can't wait to upload pictures.
Also my PS noted a umbilical hernia and due to crappy insurance he's willing to reduce the cost which I'm very excited about!
On a side note who knew gel implants were almost 3x the cost of saline, talk about sticker shock, good thing I'm getting a warranty!
