I was originally going for a bbl in LA but changed my mind and decided to do boobs first then bbl maybe next year...I already put deposit for LA but hopefully that can count till next ur....I decided to find a local dr here in the bayarea for boobs...I emailed many doctors most didn't get back and some did but didn't answer my question if they where in my price range, just an estimate is all I asked, which turned me off. I totally get it all depends but I just wanted a rough estimate...Dr. Parhiscar, I think he's the one lol!!! He was very honest, kind and answered everything I asked...no pressure I didn't feel judged and he was very real...he explained all the bad first which I liked then the good, he also seemed very humble:) I want to go big maybe D or DD not past that though I was thinking 475cc or 500cc...oh and Melinda she is so kind!!! emails me right away answers all my silly questions lol!! I really enjoy the vibe they give me in that office...I will be sending my deposit maybe next week...I really feel I don't need to look any further. oh and may I add prices are so reasonable especially for the bayarea...but that's not why I think he's the one but it is a bonus :)

Hi thx for posting your story. I was considering Dr. Parhiscar as well. I am in bay area as well. I booked a Doctor in Beverly hills and now I'm regretting it. Don't know how I could be away from my kids that long. I want 500 CCS but I do not want a lift. (Scarring) how is your recovery going did you do a lift?

Recovery is is pretty hard first 4 days then it gets easier...Dr P is great! I ended up with frankenboob nothing Dr P did...I guess that's how my body reacted....at first but now they are dropping slowly but surely and I have no doubt it will look good in the end :) I did not get the lift he said I was borderline he said I can have a good outcome without it but eventually I will need one...right now I like where my nipple position is, it's good to me so maybe down the line I will get the lift with Dr P...try a consult with him I recommend him. Let me know how it goes

So my dr tells me I'm borderline need a lift...I will like my results without but it will make it even better with a lift....so to lift or not lift? I really don not want a scar on my boobs at 33yrs old so I might skipped it till later on down the line...anyone on here borderline and just went with implants for now? I'm 5'1 130lbs I think I'm going for 500cc I just do t want it looking like two balls on my chest..dr recommended moderate plus silicone...he told me I can go with 500 but it will be noticeable and recommended 450cc...but after thinking I think I will go with 500cc I don't want to wish I went bigger if I go any smaller than that...any advice?

What do your breast look like? You read my review one doc said I did. The other Sao I could do without. But that I was borderline and the implant may or may not be beneficial alone. And the one I'm going with said I do not need a lift. I'll do well with the implant. Although I look at myself and wonder if I truly do need one

Do not be! Lol I was as well. I just didn't post my face. It could help with getting others doctors opinion on if you need a lift or not.

I am scheduled for surgery in April 2016, and I have also had various doctors tell me I needed a lift, or no that I was borderline. The doctor I chose said I was borderline and most likely would be very happy without the lift if I go with the larger size implant I would like (about 500cc). If I need to or want to, I can do the lift later or not at all. Also, he cautioned that there might be issues of safety if doing a lift and the larger implant in one surgery. Another surgeon had told me that as well, so it was a big part of my decision too.

Ok I think I will ask if 535 would be ok on my body frame without looking like soccer balls....500cc or 535cc silicone moderate plus...I wonder if 550 would be pushing it? Lol 5'1 I'm 130 and I'm pretty meaty...after I put my deposit in (waiting on refund) I will ask :) sheesh bbl girls where more responsive to me than ba girls are...lol!
