Well, right or wrong for good or evil I have decided I would like to have breast implants. I am 37 years old, I have 3 kids (twins). I'm sad that I've always been embarrassed by my 34A's but it's true - I have been my whole life. As a teen, young adult, wife, mother. So, today I booked the date. A touch rushed I think - I will go in for consult to pick the cc's later this month.

I had gone in for Lipo, but they told me I didn't need it. I had checked off "fat transfer to breast" which is when he asked me ae bout implants. So, my original consult was late July. I am travelling for 3 weeks so I can't go back until Aug 22 and then my surgery is Sept 4. Quit quick ... very quick!

My appt is Thursday this week to decide on the cc size and to learn about all the pre-op etc. I don't know the size, but I think have settled on Natrelle Silicone and under muscle. I am terrified of the recovery. REALLY. It scares me a lot to go "under the knife" but at the same time I get really very excited. Very confusing time.

You will have those thoughts like, "what am I doing??" and ups and downs emotionally likely right to the day because it is such a big decision but I can tell you, at 3 weeks post op, I have not once second guessed this choice since seeing, what I describe as my body put back to the way it was...much like, "humpty dumpty together again." Good luck this week, happy sizing! Xo

I'm with you! Excited, terrified... Never been under the knife either. My pre-op is Sept 13 and sx is Oct 3. I'll be following your story! Good luck. :-)

Same boat...nervous/excited. But I can't wait to be on the other side and fill out a top like a woman instead of looking like an 8 year old. Good luck at your consult!

Well, this morning was the big day to pick size, incision, type... I had gone in thinking I was doing areola, silicone, under muscle. And left, with Saline and Armpit, under muscle. I completely trust the Director and PS. They both felt with my breast tissue that Saline would give me the exact same look, there is not a higher incidence of rupture, the appearance will be the same - the only difference will be the feel when touching them. Well, I'm turning 38 and happily married - my husband was with me (said nothing supports whatever and has no idea what to say!) he knows they're not real! So, if it means salt and water instead of Silicone then I think I'm ok with that. I was under the impression there was a less natural look to them or they "deflated". Since this is not the case, I save $2000 (plus 13% TAX!) So, I have changed cost to 6500+. They make it sound so very "simple". I'd say I have a high tolerance and pain threshold. I decided today on 365cc, moderate, saline, under muscle, through armpit for most invisible / to no scar whatsoever. Finished bloodwork today and it's officially less than 2 weeks away now.

My husband loves mine and he is amazed at how natural they look and feel. It is So, so great not to have any visible scars too, it looks like I was born that way! You will like the Transaxillary! I was 115- 118 pounds, 5'3" went with the narrower implant - (the moderate plus) because of my measurements. I researched heavily and bought a caliper to measure my chest space. I went with 325 filled to 375 round saline. My doctor only liked to do Moderate for a natural look but I insisted he get me the mod-plus and explained why and he agreed to order me in some. I look totally natural. My husband had nothing to say really about the whole thing. He just always said he liked me the way I was.... well, he has PLENTY to say now!! He LOVES them! He is amazed at the natural aspect -- the look and feel.

I am planning saline under as well. Do they feel hard? Do you see any wrinkling?

I sure hope not! My surgery is Wednesday and I was assured wrinkling is no more an issue for Saline then it is for Silicone.

Don't be afraid of surgery. You are not out that long. You will be fine. I dreamed I went kayaking on the river. It was great!!!!! When I woke I had NO idea - I forgot why I was there! Too funny! Oh, I left you a reply at my review too! Re: Upper Body
