Hello! I decided to start my own review since I haven't seen many just like mine and I thought I'd share my experience with all of you. I've always wanted to have big breasts and I knew if they didn't grow I would have breast augmentation surgery. I am currently a 34A wanting to be a small C. I don't want to go very big at all, I just want to be proportionate to my body. I went to one doctor a friend of my referred me too, for a constilation and when I got there he's assistant had me try on sizers and asked me everything I wanted to have done. I liked the 350cc, under the muscle, silicone. When the doctor finally came in he told me he can do everything I wanted I would just have to put lotion on everyday before surgery so I wouldn't get stretch marks...
I felt like something just didn't feel right so I decided to look around and I saw Dr. Marc Malek's website and noticed he does a wonderful job at what he does so I made a constilation appointment. When I got there I sat down with him first, he talked to me about how the fact I am young and not done developing yet my breast tissue could become thin. (Which is worring me...) He took a look at my breasts and told me he could do 200cc - 250cc but would not go any bigger than that because they would just not look pretty on me and I completely agree with him. I am so happy I was smart enough and trusted my gut to not go with the first doctor I went too.

How tall are you and what's your weight? Im 5'4", 124 lbs was a 34A before surgery. I think possibly an AA but never bought bras that small because it's just sad really! I got 425cc and am now a 34D but it's early in post op so it could end up bigger once I "drop and fluff". 250 would give you between a large B and small C. It's hard to tell without seeing how much breast tissue you have. Good luck on ur journey! So excited for you!
July 14, 2015
Thank you:) I am 5' 1" and 108 lbs. I'm really hoping for at least a small c. My doctor was also afraid to go bigger because he said it would make the placement of my nipple a little off.
July 14, 2015
Happy to hear you're being smart! Approximately 200cc will give you a cup size bigger. Give or take. But hey at least you'll be a bit bigger and once you're older you can go a little bigger when the time is right (:
For now at least they'll look very very natural and no one will know lol (; good luck and congrats I hope you post pictures and keep us all updated (:

Thank you :)) After I have kids in the future I'm going to go back and get the silicone implants and I should be able to go bigger my doctor says. I'm probably going to post some pictures tonight and definetely after surgery :)
July 14, 2015
I don't see why you wouldn't be able to go bigger that sounds like a great idea!
But awesome we can't wait to see your results and help you out and support you (:

I forgot to mention in my first post that, I am 18 years old, 108lbs, 5' 1", and a 34A.
The past couple days I keep looking down and trying to imagine myself with bigger breasts and I just can't.. I've wanted this done for so long now and i don't want to wait any longer especially since I already paid and worked hard to get the money for it. I guess I just don't want something to happen and end up young with ugly boobs? I trust my doctor completely. He does a beautiful job but I just keep having these nightmares that something goes wrong with my surgery.. Hahahaha I think I may just be being a little ridiculous. Other than all that, I am so excited and I can not wait for the outcome of it all. I am going to get my prescriptions filled today and buy some sports bras for after surgery :) I just don't know what size to get I am normally a size small.
Im so glad I have the best support team. My dad was the one who told me to get it done now instead of waiting because I may not have the money for it down the road and he says he knows I'll regret it which is 100% True. I've told all my co workers hahaha I don't even care if they know Ive just been that excited. I have kept it from people that I feel would have a negative response because I don't think I need that added stress.
I have a question for anyone who has had saline implants and then had children afterwards, how did your breasts look after kids and was breastfeeding hard? I know I am young and don't plan on having kids for awhile but it's still something I wonder about.

I was writing a review last night and then fell asleep in the middle of doing it haha. I had my surgery Tuesday morning at 9 AM. The surgery went great! It was very quick it only took 45 minutes and about an hour for me to actually wake up. I was in great hands and I'm so happy I choose Dr. Malek as my surgeon. When I came home I was in excruciating pain in my arms, back, and chest. Even my tummy has been in pain. My boyfriend has been taking care of me day and night and I couldn't be anymore grateful. I've been taking all my medications on time and sleeping a lot. I went to my post op appointment yesterday at 1:45p.m., I feel like getting up off of my couch and actually doing something (even though I really didn't do anything) helped with the pain a lot, like it got my mind off of it. Today I woke up in pain as expected. I had my dad come pick me up and I've been at his house, since my boyfriend has to go to work today. I walked around the house for a little bit but now I'm just relaxing and ready for another nap lol. I must say the pain was way worse than I ever expected it to be but I think as of right now it is totally worth it! I'm going to post a before and after photo for all of you :)

Congrats girly !!!
It'll get better I promise (:
I think you're almost over the worst (pain wise) as the days follow you should just become more sore and uncomfortable rather than being in a lot of pain. Plus you didn't go super big so your recovery should be too bad!
Keep us updated and feel better (:

Thank you! And yes the pain kinda, sorta seems to be becoming just soreness now. When did you start going out of the house and doing things?
I'm starting to also wish I went bigger :( but this is the biggest my doctor would go because of the placement my nipple is, he says if I put a bigger implant in then my nipples would just look weird :/ but once I have kids and what not I should be able to go bigger blah. Am I having boob greed already? Hahahaha. I also really want to go get new bathing suits and bras... When do you think is a good time I should go and do that?

I think day four I went to Victoria's Secret and did a little shopping. Which I don't advise doing either so early. Haha I hurt so badly my breasts were so hard and I was so out of it! But it was like the sale of the sale at that time so I couldn't pass up not going with my friend. I ended up getting like five bathing suits and one of their wireless bras then. I REALLLLY wanted to get more bathing suits like on the vs side cause they were all 40% off and so fricken cute but I wasn't sure how swollen I was and I didn't wanna chance it and get ones that went by cup size and just stuck to the PINK side and got medium and larges. Just be careful ! After a few days you'll think you have enough energy to do things but you'll notice you wear out so easily so just listen to your body don't over do it at least the first week. Still take it easy the second week of course too.
Honestly I have boob greed too. I wanna go a little bigger but I couldn't fit anything bigger unless I did uhp ): I love my size but gosh if I went ANY smaller I definitely would have been pissed. Like I'm satisfied and happy for sure! I finally have boobs that are way more than just a handful and are currently a D...really hoping now for DD...fingers crossed once they drop they'll be that lol. but I wish I did like 550 or so instead of 475. But at the same time I think I carry these really well since I have such broad shoulders they look really natural under shirts. Which is good because I'm a nanny and was so worried about the 5 year old like wow your boobs are so big now lol. And on top of it I'll be an elementary teacher in the future lol. So I definitely have to look appropriate
How come your ps said that about your nipples like how would they look weird?

Oh yes you can never pass up a VS sale! I think I'm going to wait just maybe two more weeks, maybe just get some sports bras for now. When mine drop do you think they will be smaller or bigger? I don't know if I'm a big b of small c.. I'm hoping at least a small c but wish it was a medium c.. Ugh boob greed! Haha. I have a ton of little cousins and 9 nieces and nephews and Im always spending time with them. Today 3 of my little cousins are at my dads hanging out with me and they think I just got attacked by a bunch of Mosquitos hahahaha. My PS said my nipple is close to the bottom of my boob and if I went any bigger they would move lower and would not be even and he is all about making the breasts look beautiful and that is one of the main things I love about him. I just hope that was really the case. Lol but i think it is.
July 24, 2015
I hate when I accidentally put my comment at the top lol
I said....
I know right ! And now I just got an email saying they're bikinis are 50% off in stores only....I think I'll be there tomorrow! Haha. But what were you a small or large A? And how many ccs were put in 250?
Hahahahahaha attacked by mosquitoes that's hilarious. Gotta love how oblivious they are.
But hmm that's weird usually the implant is placed centered under the nipple so why would a bigger one make it lower...I mean I guess to some extent maybe. He's the doctor though! I'm sure he knows what he's talking about...a lot of doctors try to push you to go bigger rather than smaller I feel like anyways so....if anything when you're ready for new implants check out a few other doctors and see there opinions you know? See what they say and compare all there answers

I just did the same thing twice now but this is what I said hahaha:)
Hahaha I love VS espeically when they have there sales :) I felt a lot better yesterday so I went to the mall with my friend but I didn't really get much just a shirt, sports bra, and perfume lol. It hurt to pick things up and what not and now I'm so sore today, I splet in until 1:30pm! I was a 34A and my final ccs on my card they gave me were Right 240cc and Left 265cc. Which is weird because my right is smaller and he said he was putting more in that one but they look even to me.. so I'm thinking they made a mistake on the card? I was in a lot of pain and on my medication when I saw him my post op appointment so I didn't say anthing but on Monday I'm going to ask my doctor.
& My doctor exlained the reason why to me it's just hard for me to explain! Haha but short version I just didn't have much breast tissue to begin with and also my nipples were pretty close to the bottom of my breast already.
Yes, in the future I'm going to probably get other doctors opinion but also talk to my doctor as well.

Haha I keep doing that lately it's so annoying
But anywho yes just make sure like I said you'll be feeling good but just don't over do it because you'll be feeling it lol. I'm glad you were able to go out though!
I think you MAY get away with being a small c if you were a large a probably if you were a small a probably not. But that's not a 100% fact. I would go into vs again this weekend or even next weekend when more swelling goes down just to get an idea of what you're at right now....it'll be close to what you'll end up being I'm sure. Maybe you'll get placed at a c try it on-just ask for there wireless bra they only have one type. Since your breasts are so high right now you'll have a gap at the bottom but just see if they cup fits or not and maybe you'll get away with being a c once the swelling goes down more (:

I hope the pain eases up for you. I just wrote my 3 week post and I still feel like I just had my surgery a week or so ago. Don't worry, it goes by fast and you won't be in pain forever. You look great! I remember falling asleep one night when I was writing my post too. Sleeping is so much better than anything the first week! Congratulations and can't wait for another update! Xo
July 23, 2015
Yes sleeping is the best thing in the world right now. I'm really hoping it goes by fast, I trust all you ladies that it will
July 24, 2015
I'm sure it will. The most important steps to a good recovery are getting plenty of rest, drink lots of water, stay on top of all ur meds until they're GONE, and make sure to walk around every couple hrs so ur blood circulates good. I am so happy for you!!

They look great!! Can't wait to see how they look in a few days when the swelling has gone down! I'm glad you said the pain was worth it so far because that's what I'm most nervous about!!
July 24, 2015
Thank you so much:)) That was something I was very worried about also. But if you have a good doctor and this is something you really want all of it will be completely worth it :)
This is such a great story about listening to your gut. Good for you for getting a second opinion. Hoping other young women can learn from your wisdom! ;) Feel free to post some wish boob pictures and join the July 2015 breast augmentation forum. Good luck and please keep up posted!
