WORTH IT$6,200
I had my consultation today and tried on a 550cc sizer. I like how it looked but would even be happy with it a little bigger. I originally thought I wanted 450cc but that is way too small for me. I definitely do not want to end up wishing I went bigger!! I think at my pre op I will see if we can do something in between 550 and 650cc because the 650cc sizer was too big. I don't want to be top heavy I just want to be evened out with my hips/butt. Can't wait for the next meeting with my surgeon!!

Hi. Did you get them done already? If so, what size did you go with? I live in SD and I'm also looking for a good surgeon.

No I'm scheduled for my BA August 15th I'm going to Dr Pousti in la Mesa so far I really like him! And he has the most reviews that I've seen. And right now I'm wanting something in between 550 and 650 cc but I'll decide at my pre op.

Oh cool! Ya im thinking I want to do 600 but I'm not positive yet.. 550 seems a little on the small side on me though for some reason.

How tall are you and how much do weight? (You look vey petite) I tried a 450cc and felt big but then again I don't know once they're inside -everyone says that they wish they'd hone bigger. I'm 5'3 and 115lbs. It's hard to decide you know. I'm trying to get help on real self before having my surgery. I have a friend who had her breast done and I asked her if I could see her breast maybe so I can get an idea how they look and I don't know she's like she didn't want to let me take s look so I'm like that sucks so now I'm just trying to find out of my own but yeah she won't show me I don't know I have no idea why but she's like no I can't show you I don't like showing my boobs. -I think that's so ridiculous! We are friends so I thought I could ask but guess I was wrong. Now I'm on realself .

I'm 5'8'' and like 135 lbs I'm not petite really.. I have a very athletic body. You probably would be ok with that size or even 550. Just go to a consultation & try on sizers!

I'm so excited for you! Dr. Pousti is amazing and the office staff are so warm and friendly. The follow up care is just as wonderful. They actually remember your previous conversations, they truly care about their patients. And knowing you will see Dr. Pousti every appointment is so reassuring. I had my surgery with Dr. Pousti in 2009, and I couldn't be happier. It's so great to feel comfortable in your own skin. I was personally embarrassed to be in a swimsuit, now I look forward to summer!! I will forever be thankful to the Pousti team! Best of luck on your exciting adventure!!

I get my boobs done in exactly two weeks and I'm super excited/nervous about it. I posted some pictures of boobs I love and I just want mine to look exactly like those!! I'm just afraid my skin is too tight and I'm too small that they won't be able to fit a larger implant in me or they'll be hard and high because I'm small. I just LOVE all those pictures and would be so happy if mine looked like that. I love the more natural look but still big so I hope I can look like that.

Hey, what implants did you get? And smooth or textured? They look fab!

13 days, afraid of going too small!

Here's pictures from my pre op and the 550 sizers. I feel like from the front they don't look very big, even my friend said she couldn't tell a difference! But I know the 650cc sizers seemed too big and made me too top heavy. I want to be somewhere in between but not sure if that will even fit in me! Definitely do not want to wish I went with a bigger size after my surgery!

I was so back and forth too on sizes and originally thought 450. I finally decided on 550 and I too thought the 650s were a little too large for me. I'm still happy with my choice. My 550s can be played down if I want a conservative look or they can definitely be played up :-) They are perfect for me but I was so worried about being too small or being too large. It's definitely not an overnight decision! ;-) Good luck on finding your right size! :-)
