How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

First off let me just say how happy I am that I found this site. Everyone on here seems so friendly and helpful, it's such a nice community!
Now, I haven't gotten the procedure done yet. But it's only two weeks away, with my pre-op appointment later today! I am beyond excited. I developed very early (C cups by the 4th grade) and have never in my life had "normal-sized" breasts. The fact that in just two weeks I'll be small and free of neck and back pain makes me cry with joy.
I feel so much optimism towards this procedure. I believe that for the first time in almost ten years I'll be comfortable in my body. When I developed, I developed FAST, meaning I had some horribly gigantic stretch-marks on my boobs as young as 10. I stopped going to the pool and beach because other than the fact that I couldn't fit into any bathing suits, my peers would stare and make fun of me for them. Some thought I had been scratched and hurt, some thought I had scribbled on myself with red marker. I remember a rumor started at school that I stole my mom's bras and stuffed them with paper towels.
Before I end this update, I have a few questions for those who have already had the procedure done. What sort of things do I need for the surgery and post-op? I know I need a surgical bra and some button-up shirts, but are there any other things that are useful enough to invest in? Thank you very much, any info helps!
I'll try to update after my pre-op. Til next time, friends.

February 23, 2016: Pre-OP
Just got back from my pre-op appointment! Nothing to say really, it was actually pretty short, just went over some basic stuff with the doctor, made sure I had the prescriptions for my pain meds for post-op, things like that.
The one thing that is really making me worry is that the doctor said I would most likely be coming out somewhere around a D. That just still seems large to me! I really really really want a C cup, just to be nowhere near where I am now, get it? And C cup just seems like the most ideal size....
Probably just my anxiety talking. And who knows, maybe I'll get lucky and come out with a C after all. I have lost some weight since the consultation and was wearing a pretty baggy shirt today, so maybe he just couldn't see that I was a bit thinner? (not as thin as I wanted to be during the surgery sadly...even with diet and exercise I didn't lose as much as I wanted....)
Alrighty, that's about it....I'll probably update again sometime next week!

February 24, 2016: "Before" Photos
I never thought I would be confident enough to upload pictures like this online, but this website has such a great community that I was actually looking forward to doing so today!
Other people's photos have helped me so much and have been great reference, I hope these help out some other folks as well!
