37 Yo - No Kids - 5'2" - 180# - Finally Getting the Boobs I've Always Wanted!!
ORIGINAL POST
I have gotten so much great...
WORTH IT$12,000
I have gotten so much great information/tips/advice/etc. from this website, so I wanted to document my journey, in the hopes that I can be of help to other people!
I met with my AWESOME plastic surgeon (and his incredible wife, plus the rest of their awesome staff) last month and they immediately won me over. Dr. Michael Vennemeyer (Southlake, TX) is so amazing that, even though he was my first consult, I "signed up" for surgery that same day of our first appointment! I had to cancel the other pre-consults I made =O It was just one of those feelings, where I instantly knew that I was where I needed to be for this procedure.
He explained all the ins and outs and warned me about the possible risks, while explaining all of the steps that he takes to ensure that the risks are minimized. I think he and his wife were pleasantly surprised to see that all of my wish boobs looked, basically, the same LOL Apparently, many women come in with pictures of all different types/styles/sizes of boobs... I explained that I've been dreaming about this day, for as long as I can remember, so I know exactly what I want =)
My surgery is set for Thursday, January 5th, 2017. It seems so far away, yet I know it will be here before I know it; especially, with all of the upcoming holidays. The end of this year is going to fly by!! During on the initial consultation, we decided we be doing silicone, over the muscle, with a lollipop lift. We're looking at the 600-640 cc range, which we'll settle on during my pre-op consultation, which is scheduled for Dec 13th =) I'll have the moderate-plus profile.
When I was last sized, by VS, they told me I was a 36 C... I laughed, as I swear I've always had to push stomach fat up to fill up an A cup!! The problem, I guess, is that I have no upper fullness - so, while a C cup does feel comfortable around the band, there's nothing but space at the top of my bra. Dr. Vennemeyer explained that I would require the larger implant, in order to get the fullness that I desired. He also advised that even this size of implant may not be enough, so I may require a fat grafting revision after the initial surgery. He explained that he didn't want to go much larger than the 600-640 cc due to the amount of breast tissue that I have; implants too far outside of that range would increase my risk of bottoming out.
I can't wait to get rid of my Peter Pan Slippers (that's what I call the girls now!) =) I'll be documenting my progress along the way, including taking (lots) of before and after pictures. I haven't started the picture-taking process just yet, so, for now, I'll just include shots of the wish boobs that I sent to my doctor. I just wanted to start the whole documenting process before I forgot =)
Much love and well wishes to all my fellow boob girls (and all of you others!). Feel free to comment, ask questions, whatever... I'm an open book and I enjoy sharing with people =) <3

Thanks! I just had my pre-op appointment this past Tuesday. The excitement is really starting to set in...just under three weeks to go!! I know that with the upcoming holidays, that time is going to fly by =) I dropped off all of my prescriptions last night and will pick them up today. I will be doing an update soon...including some before (sad) pictures =)

theyblook great! How did you feel when you woke up?
February 22, 2017
Thank you!!
If you mean "right when I wore up", then I felt fine (I was loopy as heck) - I don't even remember getting home afterwards. I really just remember waking up, going to the car, and then waking up the next morning in my recliner (my surgery started around 2pm).
Now, I'm not going to lie...the first three days were miserable. I didn't think they looked big (like, at all) and I was in a lot of pain (and that's coming from someone who tends to have a pretty high tolerance for pain). I was regretting it and asking my husband what I did to myself LOL After those first three days, there was still pain, but it was MORE than manageable. I think I only took pain pills for the first five days or so. Every day got better and better =)
