WORTH IT$7,500
I've always wanted to have my breasts fixed. I was heavier as an adolescent so it set the tone for my saggy boobs throughout my life, especially when I lost off my childish fat. Now that I'm older, married and mother of two adorable kids -I'm ready. I've had a hard time justifying this purchase, I feel tremendous "mom guilt" and it doesn't happen that my husband likes my boobs the way they are. So finally committing to the procedure feels like a milestone in itself! I am nervous, anxious and most of all excited!
So I am 1 month pre-op and after doing lots of research decided to go with a doctor six hours away and out of state in Utah. Dr. Brzowski and his staff came highly recommended by a friend who had her augmentation there years back. I originally looked for a PS in Denver but it is considerably more expensive! At one office a basic silicone implant starts at... $9800!! Needless to say I was extremely pleased to have my implants and lift cost $7000.
Dr.Brzowski's office has been beyond accommodating! They have handle everything via email and phone thus far, saving me a trip to Utah. I will have my procedure Sept 11th. Exactly 1 month before we head to Cabo for my 30th birthday. This was another huge concern. The shower water in Mexico with freshly healed incisions, physical limitations etc. But Dr. B and his staff feel that if all heals well I'll be able to submerge my chest and be as active as comfortable ! I decided to chance because I refuse to feel uncomfortable In bathing suit any longer. Won't be long until the surgery gets here- I will update closer to. I'll also upload some "before" photos! My breasts are saggy and my nipples are not proportioned with my size- I'm about a B cup. With this procedure I hope to be a large C or conservative D but I won't know until my fitting th day before, which size will look best. This particular lift, circumareola, is great because it reduces my nipple size, removed excess skin and allows the implant to be inserted through the nipple without any scarring.

Girl it's only going to get better from here, long 28 days huh? I'm 6 days postop and these babies are worth rocking already. Cabo is going to be a blast! You're so fortunate to do this before 30 instead of having to wait until 40 like I did.

I know, 28 days feels like an eternity- couldn't imagine if it was longer!
So overall were you pleased with Dr.B, his staff and office? I had my consultation with him last Friday and he was super friendly and very professional! Taylor has been a huge help as well.

Have you seen pics of his circumaerolar lifts? This is a very tough lift to get good results from. I know I had one. I don't care for permanent suture that is used- it is palpable, scars typically widen especially if large implants are used - not being Debby downer but don't you disappointed like me- best of luck!!!

I'm glad you commented Rsmith175 about the lift because I totally overlooked that part. I don't know how he does with lifts and the circumferential lift was an option that was presented to me. After researching the forum in general, I decided that type of lift was not right for me. It's more like a nipple adjustment lift at most and doesn't seem to be for appropriate for breasts with much tissue or sag to them. I found a lot of reviews where women regretted this type of lift. You're not being Debby Downer at all and you did make a valid point, especially if she was not examined in person yet. Other lifts might be better for you Mtnmama. At least we have lots of resources available to make these types of decisions and you have time still to do so.

Oh no, I'm sorry you don't like your results! :((
You've given me something to research more, thank you.
Did you say permanent sutures? They told me I will need to get my sutures removed here locally. I have seen a few of these lifts he has performed and they looked good, as far as nipple shape and visible scarring. I will definitely talk to them about these concerns. Thanks for the insight!!!!

Prepping for Surgery
mtnmama12August 23, 2015
Hi all, a little of two weeks till surgery time for my BA! I'm so ready to get this over with.
So I am doing some shopping online to prep and was wondering what items were essential to your recovery? I have a zip up sports bra, just got a big one since I'm not exactly sure how big I'll be. I ordered some button up pajama tops and a larger zip up hoodie. Anything else? Thanks in advanced!

Per my PS office the only prepping for surgery is 1000mg of Vitamin C a day to ward off illness and a multivitamin. Post surgery I should be applying anything to my incisions unless directed by my PS- in the event of a problem. Sounds simple enough!
