Im 24 years old and after being on BC for 6 years,...
$3,500
im 24 years old and after being on BC for 6 years, the hormones got the best of me. I started to feel like i had no control over my emotions, i would get SOOO angry at the drop of a dime. My poor boyfriend got the blunt of it, poor guy. I also noticed my L breast growing and growing until i knew i had to see a doctor. I had many tests and an ultrasound and all they could say is "well iv never seen this before". My breast, at 24v yrs old decided to grow a cup size. One doctor suggested it could be the hormones from the bc and i stopped taking that day! Needless to say , i feel 100 % better and back to my old self. So now iv decided to get a BA not only to be even, but to be larger, more full, and most of all more PERKY. i feel like my boobs sag so much, esp for not even having any kids. Im 5'5 and 150 pounds, (most if it is in my booty) no one believes i way that much. Im a 34 b/c currently and only wear padded bras! im SOOO excited to wear cute bras and not worry about padding or one nipple always popping out because that breast is way larger! YAY. im going to a doctor in Beverly Hills. She is a double board certified plastic surgeon with years of experiece and only GREAT reviews. Here's the hitch though. Im not rich by any means and never though i could even afford a BA, let alone one done in Beverly Hills, but my surgery is only costing me a total of $3500. crazy right? thats what i get for searching high and low :) surgery is june 14th and this site has been SO helpful. Pretty sure im addicted!

I know it! i couldnt believe it ! and every review is great and her office assistant told me shes worked for several different doctors in Beverly Hills and my doctor is the only one she trusted to do her breasts and also her own daughters so i feel very confident and assured. im just really excited now!

at first i wanted 475 cc, saline, moderate p, but now im thinking im going to tell my doctor on friday when i go in to fill those babies up to 500. So they will be 450's o/f to 500 CC. she didnt even bring out the 500's i had to ask to see them, and when the asst went to get them, my doctor told her to tell me she wont go over 600 cc for me, so she gave me a lot of wiggle room. After reading and seeing everyone on this site and others, i decided to go to 500 cc because im going under the muscle and they all say u lose cc's when you go under. Anyways im just scared they are A. going to be too small and il be dissapointed or B. they will be way too huge and il be self conscious. I have a little bit of breast tissue already but im aiming for a DD. sorry to ramble. I LOVE yours though, cant believe they are 700, 800 cc? crazy they are so perfect. Im jelly lol

thank you! i think its great that you can go up to 500cc your 1st BA: most surgeons are very conservative: my past ps did' nt like going over 600cc either! he thought 600cc were big enough! so i found a ps who gave me the max 800cc! i wanted mine big!Â

woops i think i replied to this is the wrong spot... any ways your boobs dont even look like outa control or over the top... i think they fit you very well and if i had the guts i would do it too! Im getting saline. Im the kinda girl whos always sick with the weirdest stuff, so just getting implants for me is risky enough. I would only feel comfortable w saline.
June 8, 2013
Welcome and congrats!! It's so exciting!! Do you know how many CC's and what profile you are getting? I once had my BC script changed to another brand and I was a basket case from it, finally switched back to my normal brand and was fine. Surprised my husband didn't divorce me it was that bad. Def didn't make any of my boobs grow though, Keep us posted and wishing you the best on your surgery day!!

Sorry, just saw your size response to Violet1234! Should have read furtherÂ
;-)
June 8, 2013
haha its ok. I was reading your profile and maybe i missed it but what did u get, saline , silicone? your going about the same size i am, but i have a bit more breast tissue to start w so this should be interesting to see what i end up as. agth im getting nervous. All the what if's are starting to kick in as im 6 days away. my left breast is bigger and a lil bit different looking than my R so im really worried theyre gunna be even more noticeably different after surgery. Or what if i get cc, or what if i hate them, or what if theyre too big, or too small. i think im driving myself crazy lol did u go through this????
June 8, 2013
I have silicone. I can wear a 34DD or a 36D but seriously they don't look that big! I love them! This was my first surgery ever so I def was over-thinking and worrying about everything. my biggest fear was not waking up from anesthesia. All the worrying is totally normal and you are not alone. Soon you'll be on the other side and no more worries!!Â
June 8, 2013
I am also scheduled for 6/14! Yay! Good Luck to you!!!
June 8, 2013
yay for the 14th! haha so i just read your review and if you scroll down and read my reply to luvmyhuskies i wrote pretty much the same exact thing you did. About the "what if's" ...sounds like we are experiencing quite the same feelings. Im so friggen anxious and nervous. I just want to get it over w so that i know what im dealing w. I HATE the unknown! Sounds like you do too!
June 8, 2013
Haha! That is so funny! We did write the same things! Definitely hate the unknown!! I am such a planner. With BA you can only plan so much. The rest is kind of in your PS's hands. Even though you show them what you like/don't like and try on the sizers, you still don't know what you're actually going to look like in the end. Scary!!! I'm sure we will both end up with great results!! Just 5 more days and no more unknown!!!

they dont even look like outa control or over the top... i think they fit you very well and if i had the guts i would do it too! Im getting saline. Im the kinda girl whos always sick with the weirdest stuff, so just getting implants for me is risky enough. I would only feel comfortable w saline.

2 days pre
2 more days & im freaking out a lil ! need some advice and calming words :(
I picked 475 cc. Then i was set on 500cc. I know its not a big difference. But one sec im set on 500 then i read something about a girl going from an A cup to a D cup with just 450 and im like holly woah il be HUGE if i get 500. im already a big b, small c at vs w padding. My boyfriend tells me to stop looking and comparing but i cant help it! its my body for the rest of my life and i only wana do this once, ( at least not again for a good 10 yrs). I dont have the $ for a revision nor the time. Agth i just want to feel sure and i dont. Im worried if i go 475 i will kick myself , and im worried if i go 500 il be toooo large and think wtf have i done! im only 5/5 but i am curvy, i have a BUTT. and im doing moderate plus, saline, under the muscle. Any suggestions would be SOO much appreciated! thanks ladies!

Calm down :) the difference in those two sizes isn't going to be noticeable at all so just pick either one. I'm kind of freaking out too (we are having them the same day). You'll be fine though and I'm sure you'll love your results. Best wishes :)
June 11, 2013
Thank you ! cant help it though. im a worrier! are you going above or below the muscle?
June 11, 2013
below also. My prescriptions just got called in. I got Vicodin and anitbiotics. No muscle relaxers. did you get your prescriptions yet? iv heard so many girls talk about how amazing muscle relaxers are...
June 12, 2013
I haven't gotten mine yet. She's calling them in tomorrow. I'll let ya know :)
June 12, 2013
No muscle relaxers for me either. In fact I'm only getting 800mg motrin!! I'm a little worried about that!
June 12, 2013
No it wasn't. She said I could possibly have percocet if I absolutely needed it, but this doctor doesn't like to prescribe a lot of narcotic pain killers, so I start with just motrin. I questioned why I wasn't getting antibiotics either. She said they'll give me some in my IV during surgery and also put some inside with the implants. I'm a bit nervous about all of this because pretty much everyone seems to get pain killers, muscle relaxers, and antibiotics.
June 12, 2013
That is a little strange that they're not going to give you antibiotics!? I'm getting percocet, and an antibiotic. They wanted to give me Demerol and Ultram but it has negative effects when taken with my anxiety medicine so they switched it to percocet. I'm going to call tmrw an find out why no muscle relaxers too I heard they were Great!

Thank you for starting your journey on RealSelf! Bring your ideal breast photos with you on surgery day so your PS can make the final 25 cc decision for you. I'm so excited for you to look symmetrical and feel confident. Will your boyfriend be helping you during your recovery? Here is a list of items to set up before Friday. Don't forget the laxatives to offset the constipating side effects of the pain meds! Looking forward to your updates!
June 16, 2013
Mine was basically the same thing... I wanted 500cc, but PS old me he will put in anywhere from 450-500cc depending how they fit inside me. I ended up getting the 500cc's. I love them even though they are still big right now from being swollen. :)
