28 Years Old, A-Cup and Tired of Padded Bras

ORIGINAL POST

I've always wanted breasts. I first had this idea...

WORTH IT$6,601
I've always wanted breasts. I first had this idea when I was 18 to get them done but because I was so young I decided to wait to see when I was older if this would be the right decision for me. 10 years later, I got them! I am a fit, 5ft woman and having a flat chest just didn't make me feel confident or sexy. Don't get me wrong, I do love my body but I felt like I was missing that sex appeal. I hated shopping for dresses or tops where the cup area was loose or baggy on me because I didn't have anything to fill that space. It was the worst feeling possible. I'd have to stuff my tops and dresses with padded bras or sew in padding to make them fit. So embarrassing...it made me super insecure. Who wants that? So I did research on breast augmentation from the best to the worst of the worst experiences. I researched surgeons and compared so many, but when I found my surgeon I knew I was ready. Breast augmentation was the best gift I've ever given myself. I couldn't be more happy as I've gone from an A-cup to a small C-cup. The only con is the recovery. I am the worst patient ever and hate people taking care of me, so please listen to your surgeon when they say no lifting, carrying or pushing. You can really injure yourself and possibly have surgery to fix what you've torn or moved.

Dr. Scott Engel is amazing! As soon as we met, I knew he was the right surgeon for me. Since plastic surgery is still a major surgery, I was very nervous about getting my breasts done. Dr. Engel put all of my nerves at ease while also being very honest about the risks involved. He truly has your best interest at heart which made me really trust him more. During our initial consultation, he was very informative with helpful tips on what to look for when picking a surgeon even if I didn't pick him. Who does that! To me that showed a lot of character and I instantly felt comfortable with him. I reviewed his work of other patients and loved what I saw! A lot of plastic surgeons oversell that "wow factor" by photos of previous patients that they try to sell you a breast fitting that isn't achievable for your body type. Dr. Engel is realistic and will give you his professional opinion but he truly wants you to be happy at the end of the day. So if you don't go with his opinion that's totally fine, but I did go with his professional opinion. The implant size and shape he suggested fit me perfectly! I am so grateful. He made my breasts look incredible! I seriously couldn't have picked a better surgeon. I am so pleased with him that I will be seeing him for future things down the road. So if you are looking for a skilled, knowledgeable, honest surgeon, please see Dr. Engel, you won't regret it!

I also had that idea at 18 and am glad I waited a while to have surgery. I know what you mean about being tired of padded bras! Congrats on your results!
