So like many of you on here, I've been mulling over the idea of a BA on and off for the past 10 years. 1 year ago I finally decided to commit to it and research everything and find a PS that is right for me. In my research I found Dr. Mark D. Epstein MD of Stony Brook New York to best meet my goals. I also have learned everything that I could possibly learn about BAs short of going to med school! I feel confident, informed, and above all, VERY EXCITED!!!!!

I had my first consultation with Dr. Epstein on February 23 2015. I had my pre op appt this past Tuesday and my surgery is next Tuesday May 26th!!!!! I can't believe that it's finally happening. Now that it's a week away, time is flying by!

I have all of my post op meds filled and my procedure is all paid for! I am currently a 34 large A/small B. I'm getting either 270cc or 310cc Natrelle Allergan 410 textured shaped full height Moderate profile implants under the muscle. I am 5'9" about 130 lbs. I'm taking 3.5 weeks off of work as I have a physically demanding job (lots of pec work) massaging private massage clients as well as at a spa. All of my coworkers and most of my friends have been extremely supportive!! As for the haters, haters gunna hate and I can't stop someone from turning their insecurities into envy. I can only meet them with compassion and understanding. I'll update more as I get closer to my surgery! Thank you to all the ladies that have posted reviews, questions, videoes and pictures, pictures, pictures! They were SO HELPFUL!

I always joke around that if I could walk around topless all the time I'd feel fine about them. I just hate how they disappear under clothes. Your results are beautiful! I love the cleavage!

I would walk around topless too! Thank you!- Best of luck.

you sound similar in build to me, I had surgery approx. I month ago. form stable highly cohesive mentors mod plus, 400 unders. I am happy so far but a bit rougher of a recovery then i expected, glad you have 3 weeks to recover. you have a great shape already so you will get a good result. good luck to you.

I can't believe that my surgery is in 2 days!! Just gotta make it through Sunday and Monday and then 8am on Tuesday I'll be off to get my fancy new boobs!

Today it was so difficult for me to focus at work. I want to shout it out to the world and every person that I pass by that I'M GETTING BOOBS ON TUESDAY!!! I'm so excited!! Thankfully my coworkers are amazing women that have maintained the same excited positive attitude for me that I feel now. Everyone at work is ready to see the transformation, but nobody is more ready than me!!

So 7am Tuesday morning I have to take my anti-nausea and the first of my antibiotic. Then my boyfriend and I drive over to Dr. Epstein's office, then ITS HAPPENING! It's so cute, even my boyfriend now is referencing what will be my "fancy new [RS bleep]". He was hesitant when I began this journey but now he is excited to see how excited I am about this. I'll keep you all updated with pics and deets as to how the surgery goes!!! And good luck to all the other ladies getting their procedures done!!!

I'm so jealous yours came so fast! Haha I had to wait a month for mine and that felt like eternity. I am 8 days post op now. Def ask your surgeon about exparel, it's a pain killer that works wonders. I haven't touched my prescribed pain killers at all and had no pain due to that. My friend didn't get it and had a lot of pain. Rest, rest and rest some more for a few days. Another tip I have is go to a natural store and find what's called arnica. It's comes in a gel, cream and pill and is all 100% natural and helps with swelling and bruising. I got the gel because it's nice to kinda rub it in when they are feeling sore. But by putting that stuff on I have had no bruising and my doctor said my swelling is going down faster than normal :)) so there's my novel haha if you have any questions come on and ask! :) good luck and so excited for your surgery day!!!
