This has been on my mind for YEARS! Dr. Young answered all my questions (and believe me, I asked a ton) and I am so anxious for my procedure. I am currently a 36 small B/A hoping to soon be a full C or small D. I will be getting silicone unders through my armpit but am on the fence with sizing... 450-550cc. Any word of advice? I'm active and not a petite type, in fact, the nurses said I could go larger if I wanted and still not look "[RS bleep] star". Also, what pre-surgery advice do you have ie: stretch mark prevention, exercise, etc... Thanks in advance and can't wait to join the boobie club :)

Hi I am 9 days post opt and Dr. Young did my BA and they look like they are coming out nice.. I started 36 A and i am 5'6 and I went with 650 cc under the muscle saline and I also was scared I was going to look too much but now that they are here they aren't as big as I thought and I am glad I didn't go smaller and listened to Dr. Young advice. I'm sure whatever you pick you will be fine just tell Dr. Young what your goals are and it will be great! Btw Good luck and congrats on your BA!

Are you going high profile? I feel like I'm the only 5'9 person going with moderate plus 533cc. I go in monday 3/23.

I'm going high profile but will determine during my preop on Thurs. Alot of girls I know with mod plus wish they had a little more fullness up top. What do you weigh? I'm curious bc I also feel like I was the only somewhat tall girl getting a BA. :) Would love to see your before/after pics so I know what to expect.

Well, I've decided on the 550s subpec, armpit incision!!!! It'll put me at small D. Only 15 days to go :)

I've started using Palmer's stretch mark cream morning and evening for prevention. Any others out there more nervous about anesthesia rather than the actual procedure/recovery?

We have the same stats, I'M 5'9 165 was a 36a/aa cup and went with 304cc mod plus allergens. I went under the muscle and under breast incisions. I am now a 36 c. I think you will def be in the d range, maybe even dd. Have a great day
