5'9" 145 Lbs, 600-650cc, 36 No Kids- Turkey Day Ta Ta's! - Seattle, WA

Like many I have stalked this sight for quite some time and thought I would pass along the good karma by also posting my experiences not to mention selfishly this will help me to document and keep track of my progress.

So I am 5'9", 145lbs, no kids with no plans, and my goal is to get 650cc silicon high profile submuscular, inframammary.

My consultation experience was interesting. At first I wasn't sure what size my wish pics equated to. My first couple of consultations were good but the doctors didn't want to go bigger than 450-500cc although that didn't seem to get me the look I wanted. The doctor's reco's were not necessarily because of my body's ability to handle the implant (I asked), but more because the doctor's felt any more was too big and not natural (I am in the Seattle area so it can be body conservative). I was on the same page because hey you should listen to what the doctors say right? Except that I kept looking at my wish pics and they were not a 100% natural look. My goal is is to be full chested for my body size plus just a tad more. Well I proceeded to go to three more consults after that. At each consult I started out with my desired size a little higher than the last just to see what the reaction would be (same wish pics however). Each time the doctors would "negotiate" but the cc size got larger and larger. Now mind you I was looking for consistency between what the doctors would say not just looking for a doc to say "I can do anything" (which one doc pretty much did say and I ran away from that place).

So the big thing I found them to all say is that I would need a high profile to get the look I want (my pocket area is 13.1 right and 13.3 left). The max size I can get is 650cc though they prefer a bit less than that. If I truly wanted anything bigger than that I would need to plan for another procedure later.

So after 5 consults and with some consistent messages, I had to choose between doctor #3 (Dr Marosan) and #5 (Dr. Salemy). They were both really wonderful, essentially the same cost, both with very good reputations. They were sooo close in my mind, but ultimately I went with Dr. Salemy because of the shear amount of good reviews out there for him and then the dumb little things too (the atmosphere at the office, the robe material, the t-shirt they give you- oh yeah I am a sucker but I liked it I am not going to lie!).

Anyway, I wanted my surgery to occur over the holidays so that a) I wouldn't have to take off too many days of work b) its colder out so I can wear bigger clothes and scarves to work so the change will be less noticeable. So I put down my $500 non-refundable deposit and scheduled my appointment for Nov 23, 2015. I will have some new ta ta's to be thankful for this year!

On Monday I went in for my last consult before surgery on Mon 23rd. It went well. I sort of had in my head that they might come back and push back on the 650 size but all they said was "it's a bigger implant than many women want but it will fit your frame and it will look great". So that was great to hear. The rest of the appointment was paperwork, what to expect the day of surgery, perscriptiob, and of course payment. Now it's just a matter of prepping for Monday. Excited, a little nervous and anxious, but also ready to finally do this.

So surgery was on Monday morning. Everything went well and had my follow up appointment yesterday. No bruising but super tight skin and swollen. Sleeping is tough so I am up every 3.5 hours as the pain meds wear off. I am hoping I can start to ween myself off the meds soon but it's tough once they wear off. The pain feels a bit more accute/sensitive as the days go on especially on the sides but it's bearable. I hope to make big strides in recovery the remainder of the week. I am sure turkey dinner will help the healing :-)
