Breast Enhancement in Detail - Short1's Surgery on Friday, August 11.

[jenscats5]

lol.


hey. boobs get me excited, too. When you mentioned running a thread about it, I thought it was a great idea. I'm more than happy to provide info for girls who are thinking about doing the same...and I'm glad I had such a good experience. I would definitely recommend my Dr. and his clinic. They made the experience stress free, and as close to pain free as it could get.

I am SO glad you had such a great experience!! Makes it that much more worthwhile......plus they look great......thanks for taking the time to post everything up!

lol. I am just happy for the same reason you posted above. Your positive experience is awesome as well.

How often do you have to go back for check ups? I have heard of girls coming from across the country to go to a doc they truly love, b/c word of mouth/referral ... wondering how a doc may handle it if you are an out of state patient ... if you know..

For out of town patients, he schedules them on a friday with a Monday appt to get the all-clear. (Dr. Borsand's service called Jeff the night of my surgery to make sure everything was OK and to ask how i was feeling.) On my Monday visit, the clinic made a 6 week appt so they could take final pictures and make sure my boobs "settled" in the way the doctor had intended.

I would assume that if you were flying in from another state, they wouldn't schedule a 6 week appt. - so you'd be looking at a stay in Scottsdale of 4 - 5 days. It would take 2 trips - the first for your consultation and the 2nd for surgery, unless you can manage to get the 2 together, like I did. I just got lucky, I think - they had a cancellation.

I am pleased to report that my boobs made it through work without any problems. My scars itch (took the tape off on Saturday) and my boobs are still a little tender, but otherwise Okey Dokey. QT will be happy to know that my nipples are still sensitive (didn't loose it, thank goodness).

I think it is cause he went in the breast fold and not through the nipple. My gf had hers in the breast fold as well and told me here nipplage is still senstve how ever breast fold area is numb at times.

Tomorrow is the big day! I am finally taking my 'before' pictures tonight and will post before and afters next week. Wish me luck. I've never been to the doctor for anything more major than stiches or a sprained ankle.

TSO, I hope we are not over-jacking your thread. I figured this was a 'breast enhancement in detail' post so I'll go for it.

Annie, here are the answers I have for you. I am going with approx 400 cc's in one breast, 425 in the other. CCs do not = breast/cup size. For example, one could go with 350 cc's and end up looking exactly like TSO because she is starting out with more breast tissue than TSO did.

My experience so far w/ Dr. Salzberg has been wonderful! I go for my surgery (breast lift and implant) next Thursday the 24th. The cost was broken down to be around 4500 for the doctor/cost of implants themselves, plus more $$ for the anesthesia and use of the surgery center.

I am going under the muscle. I am not sure what you mean by shape. Generally, no one uses the teardrop shaped implants anymore, but they do have high, medium, and low-profile implants. I would have your doctor suggest which to select based on your size/frame. If you get a breast lift, you are a candidate for silicone implants, which tend to ripple less than saline. When you are a low body fat percentage to compete in figure/fitness/BB, you will see the ripple. Other than that- The best part about my first visit with Dr Salzberg was that on my first visit, I was very hesitant and nervous, especially when it came to size. That day, he had a post-op visit scheduled - It was a girl who had surgery the week prior... She was a personal trainer in very similar shape/condition to me. He suggested I wait to meet with her (if she was comfortable) to talk to her about her experience. It was a great great thing for me.

WonderWoman,
Thx alot for your responses to my questions. What i meant by shape was that tso said she chose the medium profile implants to avoid the torpedo looking breasts. I don't know what the difference is w/ the high, med., and low implants? Do you know the difference? I thought she also said she had them done over, not under. Is one better than the other? I originally had mine done under but wonder if i should get them done over since i think i'll probably have to get a lift as well. One problem i have when i go to the gym and wear those sports bras my nipples stick out. It's so embarressing, i even put on a muscle shirt and they still pop out! I wish that didn't happen but it occured after i had the implants. Does anybody know why this happened and i wonder if i get them done again will i have the same effect?
Thx,
annie

OK. My final boob update.


I went back to work today. For those of you who don't know what I do - a picture:

That big yeller one is my ride. It's a paddle scraper, and it picks up lots of dirt or rocks or whatever. It bounces the holy hell out of you, too. lolol. I wore 2 bras today - my new VS and a sports bra over it to protect from serious bouncing.

I am pleased to report that my boobs made it through work without any problems. My scars itch (took the tape off on Saturday) and my boobs are still a little tender, but otherwise Okey Dokey. QT will be happy to know that my nipples are still sensitive (didn't loose it, thank goodness).

Oh! I worked out on Sunday. Lower body, only...and did 45 minutes on the treadmill (walking at 4.5 mph) with a gradual incline/decline to 7 and back. (DANM, my quads are sore. lololol) I strapped my boobs up in a sports bra and a tight, spandex tank. No problems. This coming weekend, I'm going to start working out again. (YAY!)

So, 12 days after surgery and I'm roaring to go. No complications, no unbearable pain, no bruising, and very little swelling. I have more than 1/2 my pain killers and muscle relaxers left over for an emergency. The boobs have relaxed a bit now so they don't look like missiles or hubcaps. They do tend to produce more sweat now than the rest of my body...haven't figured that one out yet.

Now THAT is a cool ride. As for your leftover opiates, I'll PM you my address.
