Hi ladies! Its been so helpful reading your stories, they have helped tremendously! I though i should share mine to help others considering upgrading their girls :) Also, i'd be so nice to hear some feedback or advice, this way i wont feel like im alone in this!
My surgery date is only 4 DAYS AWAY. I'm so excited and can't wait to have it be over so I can't get the healing process out of the way!
Here are my stats, hope this helps someone!

4ft 11in 3/4 (lol) so round up to 5ft
Current weight : 100lbs (fluctuates between 98-103, I'm trying to maintain or gain weight!)
Pre op bra size: Nurse said I'm 34A/32B (I wear padded 34B though)
Rib cage: 28 in.
Breast width diameter (BWD): 12.5cm

Okay, so I have done months and months of research and this is what me and my doctoe have chosen so far:
Mentor gel silicones, smooth, round, inframmamary, DUAL PLANE tequnique to help with the sagging. I think it looks worse in pictures than in person because doctor said I didn't need a lift. I definitely plan on getting one in 10-15 yrs depending on gravity or if I decide to have one last child in a few yrs (don't want to right now!) He did talk to me about a periolar lift (I think thats what he said) but I declined. I don't want to go through the areola because it's more visible and they have to dissect your breast more than with inframmamary.

Okay so with that out of the way, the only thing that I'm struggling with now for weeks is the size and profile. I'm at the point of just telling the doctor to pick for me! Of course right after I show him my wish pics.
I'm between 350cc moderate plus (doc said that's the biggest I can go in that profile) and with 375-400cc HP (sound huge). I feel like I 350s are a little smaller than what I wanted but going a little bigger means having to go to HP implants. This scares me because I'm scared they will look fake! :(
Anyways, I've included 3d pictures with the 350MP. What do you ladies think?


PS: on Monday I'll be getting the 3d images with the 375 HP and 400 HP (yikes!) .I'd prefer 375 but the diameter ( 12.cm)may be to small for me? Im worried about cleavage. I'll have I'll keep you ladies updated ! :)

Have you decided on profile and size???

March 1, 2016
Yes, she looks amazing! I know hers areally natural thoigh, but still! I'm still debating on size, also I'm still waiting for my 3d imaging with the 375hp and 400hp. It should be available to see today! I will post those babies up today. As of right now, the best advice I've gotten is to focus on showing my doctor the 'look' I want to achieve instead of going crazy about how many ccs's. So I'm thinking of asking the doctor to have all 3 sizes available in surgery and once he opens up my breast he can see what would fit me vest to give me that look. Wish me luck please! Getting very nervous...

Changed mind about size?!

User Avatar
jcn22322
I've been going back and forth between sizes ever since my post op appointment! I'm so afraid to not like my results. I'm afraid of going too big, going too small, having rippling or not having enough cleavage. I don't think I was ever content with the 350 MP. I feel like they are the same size or maybe even smaller than when I was breastfeeding. I got some good advice today from another realself doctor (it's on my profile, under the question 350 vs 375cc?). To trust my doctor and focus on showing him the look I wanted, preferably from women with similar height and weights. Less than 3 days away and I'm searching frantically foe more pictures. Anyone out there 5ft tall and with 400HP??? It sound so big though...maybe I should go with the 375...sounds less scary but then again. The width for that one (375) is 12cm...my BWD is 12.5...I'm scared of not having proper cleavage. I wish I could trust my doctor, but I feel like he was annoyed by my questions (and they were very few! I did my research for weeks non stop)....
He has such great reviews....I guess we'll see....so nervous what if they're too small and nobody notices, or what if they're too big they'll look fake or show rippling?.....any one out there with a similar situation?

ALSO, everytime I do more research I'm convince the 350cc will look bigger than the 3d image. But then I find something else and think they might turn out way too small. How accurate were YOUR 3d images from what you actually got?

Ok so size is the hardest decision!! I was my hardest decision anyway. I didjt get the 3D images so I don't have the answer for that. I do know that the rice test is pretty accurate so you could give that a try? I'm a bit taller than you and maybe wanted smaller than you want but I'm so happy with my size and wouldnt have wanted bigger. Good luck in your decsion and surgery I will be following!

This really helped! I'm thinking I'll stay with the 350cc MP!!!

My gf is 5'-00", 115lbs , went with 425cc HP. They look great, but she wished she went a little bit bigger (at t time the doctor said the were the biggest he could fit). Don't be afraid with the UHP; I know that sounds really big and fake but in reality all it means is that the base (diameter) . . Implant will be more narrow with the same cc amount. You will get used to the new boons so fast you will think you should have been born with them. Good luck!

Hi, bigger better! I'm 6ft tall and I had 2011 breast augmentation 650 cc mentor silicon. Sounds like very big but not all. I can't wait do again and getting bigger. I'm doing lipo all over on my body. Next week second round lipo. I hope you make the right choice. Good luck!

Sorry I missed this. So I have 425 HP implants and I'm 5 foot 2 100 lbs. My implants are design for a BWD of 12 and I have 11.3. If you were looking to go the HP route you would end up bigger than 400 based on the width. I have sizing charts on both of my reviews. At 500 (or 525) cc you get 4.5 cm projection and are at 14.1 BWD. You shouldn't be scared by the size or volume of an implant. Even though we are the same height your breasts are wider so you need a little bit more volume to get the same projection/ look. It is really common to have size concerns early on and in my experience doctors can be very dismissive thinking its a normal unsure feeling. It took me 10 months to finally get so fed up that I made my doctor pay attention. The way you get them to pay attention is to call their office and ask the receptionist for a quote on revision. This way the doctor knows you are serious and will set aside time to discuss this specifically with you. You will likely at minimum pay for implants $1200 or $3000 if you have to pay for OR and anesthesia. You look beautiful but it doesn't matter what anyone but you thinks or feels. If you decide you don't like your size revision is a lot less painful than BA. I don't regret going through the second surgery at all. Sizing is tough and you shouldn't be expected to know exactly what you want right off the bat.

Ignore what I said about the 14.1 sizing. When I post I can't see your original post so I messed up with the sizing. Although my BWD is smaller by a very small amount than yours you could fit my exact implant since it is 12.0. So 425 cc would be a good HP size for you. If you want to decrease any gap between your breast you could go to 450 cc which has a Width of 12.4. I chose to go 0.7 cm over my width so going 0.3 over is do able.
