Like most, I have been contemplating this surgery for years. After befriending several wonderful women who unabashedly made the decision years ago to upgrade their boobies, I finally found the support I had needed to feel good about this choice!

After deciding where to have my procedure (decided local was best because I don't really have the means to travel far for appointments), I selected Dr. Paredes based on research and recommendation. At my consultation, I told Dr. Paredes and staff I was hoping to increase by a cup size. But the longer I wait (and browse RealSelf), the more antsy I become about my sizing. I'm intending to try on sizers again at my pre-operative appointment.

My biggest concern is my breasts looking noticeably larger under clothing or fake. I have worn heavily padded bras for ages, but if my mother ever knew I had made the decision to actually enhance what nature gave me, she would be very upset.

Currently, I am 5'9" about 117lbs, athletic, but very slender. I wear a 32B-C depending on the bra. At my consultation I selected 250cc silicone, under-muscle with a breast crease incision, moderate plus profile. I am certain I do not want high profile implants, but I'm wondering if I should size up to 300cc.

Any input is greatly appreciated!

most women's biggest regret is not going large enough. try out some bigger sizers and see how they feel. i am 5'9 and looking at about 450cc. ( i have my surgery on tuesday :) check my profile to see how it goes if you'd like. Because we are tall, we can handle a bigger size and still look natural. you do however have a smaller frame then my so perhaps somewhere in the 300 range? just a few thoughts :)

Can't wait to see what you decide! Good luck tomorrow! I was told today 275 will be the maximum implant he'll do, and if it looks too unnatural, he will use the originally planned 250.

We literally are the same height and weight! I don't know how big you want but my doctor was telling me today that if I went with 350cc or 375cc I'll be around a 32D. (I am currently a 32B, unless you count VS then I'm a 32C haha) but yea just to give you an idea on where you'd end up :)

Gotta say, your before pics look AMAZING!!! You really have a great body, i'm sure the surgery will help your confidence. I had a consult with Dr. Rawlings at Tally Plastic Surgery, and also one from Dr. Kirbo at SE Plastic Surgery, I decided to go with Kirbo and will be getting lipo on my abs & flanks on June 2nd. Good Luck, I'll be following to see your results.

Yes, that's pretty consistent in this area. About $3500 for saline.

I was in the same boat and have very similar stats! (5’9”/130lbs) I am super modest, but athletic and didn’t want to look fake or have something so big that they would get in my way. I was dead-set on 250cc, but went with moderate profile 295cc because EVERYONE said that it was only a tiny bit more by volume and that most people wish they had gone bigger. I LOVE them, they are perfect, and exactly what I need. I am so happy I took their advice! (Pics in profile)

Currently a 32B or faux 32C if wearing Victoria's Secret! I'm 5'9", 117lbs. Thinking 250cc silicone, but planning to try on sizers again tomorrow at pre-op!

I went with 500 cc hp. Before my surgery I was set on mod profile and when I was able to try on sizers and play with the implants I liked high profile better. I also struggled with the thought of my dad finding out about me getting implants. I told him I had to get some cysts removed and that I was getting implants after because I didn't want my boobs to look funny. I know horrible I had to lie but I just didn't want to hear his lectures haha. I also wish I went bigger sometimes but then glad I didn't because I don't want some people to notice. Really take your time with the sizers and be confident in that size they are pretty spot on with how you will look after. Just remember if you go under the muscle it takes about 25-50 cc's away. Good luck :) excited for you.

Thank you, dear!! My doctor told me this morning 275cc maximum. He said he will try to fit the 275, but if he feels they look unnatural, he will put in the 250s. Only two weeks to go!

You have very beautiful natural breasts. People pay for breasts to look like that.

Pre-Op Appt

Just finished my pre-op and paid my bill in full (yikes!!). Compared the 250cc to the 275cc and really preferred 275. (You can see the poor quality photo of the 275 versus my natty boob.) My doctor was not going to let me try on 300 because he said there was no way they would fit. Despite being tall, I am very slender. He said he will try to fit the 275, but if they look too cramped, I will have the 250.

Recieved all of my scripts for my meds and my pre-op instructions. It's only two weeks away! Getting excited!

I couldn't get 300 or more in Mod plus either, I did end up going HP, but I weigh more than you, I feel more proportioned now than I ever have been.
