I have been researching breast augmentation since the beginning of this year. I have never had a surgery and am a little hesitant to sign myself up for one voluntarily. However a part of me thinks why the hell not?! Life's short and I am not planning on having kids. I've never hated my boobs but have wished I was a little more endowed in order to balance the rest of my body. I've been researching both implant and explant reviews and have learned a lot. I recently went to two consults with two different surgeons (Dr. Salemy and Dr. Rand) who seem to be top of their field based on what I've found. I actually liked both doctors equally and they both put me at ease with their confidence and knowledge which makes the decision to choose a doctor a little more difficult;/ Size wise I would like to be a full c/small d cup and both doctors recommended between 275cc to 310cc moderate silicone implants. My bandwidth is a 12. I am thinking about booking my surgery in January and would love to hear from anyone who went to either of these doctors and what your thoughts and opinions are on your results and experience with them. Thanks! Will be updating my posts once I choose my doctor and have a date set!

I have appointment for consultations with both the Dr.s you mentioned. So, I would also be interested in any feedback.

Have you had your consults yet? Curious to know your experience. I'm opting for Dr. Salemy and am booked for surgery Jan 4th.

I had consultations with both Dr. Salemy and Dr Rand as well. I have friends who have used both of them and were extremely happy with the results. Dr. Salemy just performed my BA on Tuesday afternoon 11/17. He and his office staff were excellent! I debated between 275 cc and 255 cc. I am 5'5" and weigh 122 pounds. I finally settled on the 255 cc's for fear of going to large. It's easy to add padding or push-up bra, but you cannot downplay what you have. Additionally, I have three young daughters who knew about the procedure and they played a part in my decision-making as well.

I had my post op appointment yesterday and they appeared smaller than I thought when I tried on the 236 cc sizers (went up a size to 255cc to take into Consideration for going behind the muscle. ) I think as they settle, they will look very natural.
Looking forward to showering later today so I can check them out for myself :-)

Sorry for the late reply. How is the recovery process going for you? Are you glad you went with the smaller implant size? My surgery is next week and I'm still torn between sizes!

Hi! I am not familiar with the docs... However, I just wanted to suggest looking into s fat transfer
December 29, 2015
Sorry, I hit send by accident! Looking into a Fat transfer before going ahead with implants. It's much less invasive, and more natural looking. Not to mention no health risks compared to implants. Either way you go, best of luck to you!

So my daughter was much smaller than you, she wanted to look natural but enhanced, she ended up getting 250 cc but now wishes she had just s bit more. People have no idea she did this because she looks very natural.

I would definitely look ino fat transfer. Breast implants come with so many risk and a lifetime upkeep. I wanted them myself after having 3 kids but after tons of research I decided against it. I'm sure you've done your homework but just thought I'd give it a shot. Best wishes

I looked into fat transplant, but I am not a good candidate, I don't have enough fat on my body.
