I wasn't going to write a review and share my experiences, but during my research, I keep coming back to this site. It only seems fair to share and post my before and after.
I often have thought about plastic surgery, but never though I would actually have the nerve or money to do it. I'm now 45 and wished I would of thought about this more seriously ten years ago, but here I am, YOLO! For about a year now, I have been super dedicated to going to the gym and eating right, which resulted in two sizes smaller and ten pounds off the scale. I know by the way my clothes fit that the weight has come off all over, but I swear it came off of only my boobs..LOL. I was a B, but now for sure an A. Therefore I started seriously thinking of breast implants. I did a TON of research on the web and asking those I know who had done it. After consulting with three different surgeons, I picked the first one I consulted with, Dr. Hardesty, at www.imagineplasticsurgery.com. I liked him from the start, but I needed two more opinions to feel like I really did my homework. With that being said, I have decided to go with silicone gel, high profile implants under the muscle, going through the nipple. Probably 450's, I want to be a small D. My last pre surgery appointment is on 11/6, I'll make the finale decision then. After I had made up my mind on the implants, I started thinking of my eyes, the whole "while I'm at it, I might as well" attitude started settling in. My eye lids have always been droopy due to a family trait, and with the brow lift I will get the maximum results. I talked it over with my husband and he kept saying, if you don't do it now you probably won't, so again, YOLO.

My eyes look scary, but besides the little strings they attach, they feel good, forehead hurts the most. It's day two and it hurts less, and from others pictures I've seen my bruising isn't bad. Can't wait to heal and see the true results!

I got the stitches out of the corner of my eyes today!! Just have the big nasty ones on my hair line left to come out and those will be removed on Monday, can't wait. My right eye came out perfect, but my left eye still droops a bit. PS said give it 3 months and if it still doesn't match the right eye he can fix it in the office, no extra cost, was very glad to hear that!! LOVE my PS. I go back to work on Monday, and my bruising isn't completely gone, still trying to figure out the best makeup techniques :)
