WORTH IT$3,600
I wanted to share my experience to come with all of you since your reviews have really made me feel a lot more comfortable with my upcoming breast augmentation :) I am 30 years old, 5'6", 112lbs. I used to be heavier when I was younger (155lbs) but still was only a B cup at my heaviest. I got into fitness, dropped the weight and, big shock, all the boobs I had went with. I am a fitness competitor so I live in the gym and keep by body fat below 15% year round. I guess I am just tired of having the upper body of a 16 year old boy :-/ So, with the support of my husband, I am competing on the 20th of April and having my augmentation done on the 30th!
I live in Spain and am having it done in Prague, so a bit nervous that I won't have a face to face consultation with the surgeon until the day of the procedure. Also, nervous about the cc's and profile to get. I really love the high profile look but a lot of surgeons don't like to use it because it gives a fake look...
I'll update as things get closer!

Post consult feelings...
So I just had my consult over the phone with my surgeon. Definite downfall of not being able to meet the surgeon face to face before the day of my surgery! Based on pics and measurements I sent him he recommended 350cc moderate profile, silicon under the muscle, incision under the breast. Was going along with it until he said it would get me to a B/C, which is considerably smaller than I asked for. I want a C/D cup :-/ When i told him this he started talking about how my body couldn't handle it and he would order 500cc if I wanted but the normal size in Europe is 350cc... Yeah I had to cut him off there because I was thinking 375cc or 400cc, not 500cc! When I told him that he calmed down and said he would order those sizes for me.
I also have been very specific that I want high profile implants, so when I asked him why he recommended moderate he started talking about how high profile don't look natural. Let me stop you right there. No wish pics that I have sent through look "natural". I love that upper pole roundness and am not looking for a natural look. I currently have 12% body fat, no matter what you stick in me nothing will look natural!
As you can tell, feeling a bit frustrated. Cherry on top, he said no exercise what so ever for 4 weeks??? I have had friends get implants and started back to light cardio after 2 weeks, lifting weights (not upper body) at 4 weeks. Anyone else have experience with this?? I don't want to do anything to jeopardize my healing but at 4 weeks of doing nothing I will be climbing the walls o_O

hola, check out my progress. I'm currently two weeks post op from 325cc silicone under my pectorals/over serratus muscles and I agree with your doctor! Your pec muscle attachments will be stretched to the max and if you ever want to lift weights again you MUST rest at least 4 - 6 weeks after BA before slowly getting back into chest exercises. I'm a fitness trainer and competition coach, fitness model. I can relate to you. Don't go too big right away or you can damage your pectoral muscles.

Hey! great to see another competitor :) I'm actually a bikini competitor and personal trainer, so will have less developed pec muscles (I'm no where near 70lb flyes!). You said you agree with my doc on no exercise at all for 4 weeks or for 350cc? In your review you started back to light cardio and low body work after 5 days? Good to see things from your view :) x

Afternoon surgery
So I got my surgery time, looks like I will get sent in at about 2pm... I am afraid I am going to eat my own arm with all that time of nothing to eat! :-O

I was told my pec muscles were very tight and thick, lol.....he urged me not to start training back up for at least 4 weeks! I'm at six days post op and feel like I would have no problem with some light stuff even next week-I guess we'll see;)

keep me updated! being out of the gym is going to kill me! (clearly i am a terrible patient)... also you look great for being only 6 days post! that is the look I am going for as well, however you had more breast tissue than me so I will need a more CCs. But your high profiles are just another perfect example of the look I want :)

If you read any studies the actual reccomendation is no food 6-8 hours before surgery, no clear liquids 3 hours before.....I read that it is ridiculously unnessecary to make a patient wait that long when they have a later surgery, but they do it because its easier to keep it straight across the board 'no food/drink after midnight'.
I originally had a late appointment as well-that's why I researched, lol;)

Thanks for the info!! Makes me feel a lot better. I asked about having an earlier surgery time and they said it just wasn't possible. so I will just get up early to have a small bite to eat :)
