I'm 5'6 and 135 lbs currently at 36B bra size. I decided on Breast augmentation after my last pap when the nurse told me that my breasts were uneven and a little disproportionate. I had never really noticed the difference in my breasts but when I asked my boyfriend of 4 years, he admitted that he had noticed that my left boob was bigger than the right one. HA- That was the last straw--I made up my mind that I wanted a consult with the PS to discuss a BA.

I went to one surgeon (a female) at the end of March for my first consult. I thought she was really professional but she made it sound like she couldn't really make my breasts perfect or any better with an augmentation to "correct assymetry"... Also, She didn't really have much personality and I decided that I wanted to go to another consult before deciding on her (although her prices were more reasonable)...

My second consult was just Wednesday 6/12 with Dr. Thompson out of Round ROck,TX. I had chose him b/c I looked on the internet at patient reviews and he was given all positives and highly recommended by postop patients, plus I have a friend on social media that works for him and had hers done by him- they look AMAZING so I figured he was the man. :) His office staff were very nice and attentive, fixing me coffee while I waited on the Dr. When he came in for the consult, he really asked a lot of personal questions, getting to know me, and asked me how I wanted to look. Luckily I had been to this website prior to and knew that it was smart to save a couple of pics to my phone of breasts that I liked, didn't like, etc...so I showed him the pics and he critiqued almost all of them and showed me things I never even saw or considered, such as gaps between the armpit and boobs or the large spacing between the boobs, etc. Also, he said that when PS's post pics of only the side view of their patients, it usually means that the frontal view doesn't look "so hot". He stressed that my body measurements really play into effect what size he was going with. For me, I have a broad chest and very small boobs/hardly any breast tissue so he decided that a flatter, (moderate profile) with 655cc would like the best based on my measurements. I feel very confident with his decision and feel like this will probably give me a large C or even a D cup afterwards?...
Although I am very anxious to have this done, I have to wait until 10/8/13 due to saving up a little cash and also paying off my vehicle in Sept. I want all my ducks in a row before I take the plunge. My Preop is scheduled for 9/25 and I can't wait!

Your wait from time you scheduled til time you have it is about like mine.....I scheduled mine for August 8 and I made that date on April 3....a little less than 8 weeks to go!

I'm excited for you. I'm still in the deciding to do it phase, but if and when I do decide to go for it, I think I'll have to schedule the surgery quick or a will freak myself out and not do it. Good luck and keep posting for updates!

Hi! They do look great! Congrats! I am at the consultation phase. Any chance you could give the initials of the female you consulted with? (I have 3 female consults, plus 3 male!) Initially I was set that I wanted a female doc, but now I realize good symmetrical work is more important than anything else!

Thank you for starting your journey on RealSelf! I like your thorough explanation of your consult. Your PS made some excellent points about photos of women's breasts not always telling the truth. He also mentioned the importance of your body size when determining implant type and size. I have a feeling you're going to have some great results! Keep us posted!
