Too big .... Now too small??  Empty Too big .... Now too small??

Post by Jess.C x 12th November 2014, 2:56 pm

Omg I think I'm driving myself mad!! 
I first decided on 450cc/425cc but thought they would be too big so I went back to see Dr Frati and decided on 400/425 instead. 
Now I'm in two mind again!! Ffs!!! 
I'm 34a (I think) wanting to be atleast large D or DD. Want to be able to get some side boob and be able to hold up stroppy dresses/tops
What's making me so confused is as I mentioned in my previous posts I'm not telling my mum so don't want it too look like a massive difference. I'm currently wearing a (small boobs girls best friend) chicken fillets to make them look bigger (ish)  lol
I've got my pre op next week, might ask my PC to order me the bigger ones for the day too or ask if I can have a look at the implants again. I keep thinking if you go for the smaller you can always go bigger but go bigger you can't go smaller. Also worried about stretch marks?
 What do people think?

The bigger you go, the more chance of stretch marks yes, also rippling etc. You can go bigger a second time easily or make them look bigger but you can't make boobs look smaller and going smaller is a lot more complicated op which comes with extra scarring. Bigger is not always better x

400 is a big implant, especially for a first op. I wouldn't worry x

I think 400cc will be fine, what profile are you having? And are you having behind the muscle or in front? I've got the same problem as you can't pick size, the lovely ladies on here have recommended taking pictures with you to show surgeon exactly what you want, so that's what I'm doing when I see him again x x

Im a little confused...do you mean 450/425 >> 425/400? Reducing them both by 25cc?

25-50cc doesn't sound like a lot, but it can be the difference in a cup size. I wouldn't ever say bigger better, but would you rather wake up with them too small or too big? 400 is a large implant, I think you'd definitely hit at least a DD.

Can I ask why you're not telling your mom? And why it would be an issue? Mine are barely noticeable under clothes because I used to pad out...but sooner or later it will be obvious. Assuming you have a relationship with you mom, Id maybe tell her yourself, rather than have her find out 2nd hand (and they will), as it could cause more trouble than its worth (saying from experience here, though mine was that I hadn't gotten round to it yet).

I told my mum and she is fine, but some people just fire back with negative comment. Like oooo you silly girl what do you want to do that for!! It's quiet annoying . But going back to size do you trust your surgeon? Ask him and tell him how you feel xxxx

I forgot to add, that you need to get a size that you are happy with and not worry about other people all be it your mum. It's a body altering op and it should be something that's right. Get the size you want and not a size so you can hide the fact that you have had a BA .
I hope that didn't come across blunt. Good luck with what ever you choose but remember your body your boobs and you need to be happy with them.

The best piece of advice I was given was if you're choosing between two sizes then go for the bigger one! Few people feel miserable because they went bigger rather than smaller. I appreciate though you could go bigger if you had them done again in the future.

I had 415's, have ended up a 30FF/G, and they're not that noticeable in terms of people just think they are mine if that makes sense. They do suit my frame though so that may make a difference.

I trusted my instincts, go with what you want rather then what you think you should have. make yourself happy first and foremost.

I get so confused when everyone talks about weights! The all seem so different! My friend had 340cc and she asked for a DD and I think there big! They definitely look big! But she only had hers done a week ago so once the swelling goes down hers will drop and shrink a bit! She's dreading that because she loves them how they are now haha! I'd just find celebrities or pictures that you want to aim for instead of size! That's now in decided! Blake Lively's are the ones for me haha! Xx

My surgeon took printed goal photos into theatre with 3 implants sizes and said he'd try each one and see which looked best!

Sorry I'm odd sized so I'd either have 400cc/425cc or 450cc/425cc. I can't tell my mum yet it's not the right time, one of my brothers had cancer two years ago and in the last few weeks my other brother is now showing signs. I can't put the stress and worry of my BA on her as well. I've taken pictures in before I think boob greed has come early! Xx

If you're already worried about boob greed go bigger! So long as your surgeon is happy with the bigger option go for it!

I drove myself crazy over sizes! I was undecided on a 700 and 800 , I have 3 close friends who have had surgery and they wish they had gone bigger. They got used to the swollen size and was gutted when they went down. Have you done the rice test? I'd recommend making up 2 lots with the 2 sizes you want in tights and wear them in your bra. Xx

Go back to see your surgeon again & take pics with you, discuss your desired result again & see if he can take both sizes into theatre. That way with your pics & discussing the look you are after you can let him decide from there which size is best implant for your desired result. They use disposable sizers not the actual implants when trying various sizes out in theatre so shouldn't be any extra cost issues. XXX
