Topic: RE: Who has had breast implants? &other ramblings on plastics
RENEE, I had the purse string lift and my implants were inserted under the muscle with about a 3 in*****ision under my breast, you don't even see it you also don't see the lift as it was just around the arreola. I have lost no sensation from day one there. Now my tummy and thighs that is a different story they are still numb... I had the gummy bear implants and ended up a d with the tissue I had left. Your Dr should tell you what will look best with your chest measurements. Yes about the shirt issue I am wearing a comfy sweater today and it fits great on top and tents out at the bottom and I was just thinking I should take it in on the sides at the bottom. HAVE A GREAT DAY TORI

My sister had implants, it was a big huge secret and then there she was one day with big ole ta-ta's - and thought nobody would notice. Ha! She was also an A and wanted D. On the table the doctor downgraded her to a C and initially she was quite upset - but D would have been TOOO BIG. Now she looks proportioned - at a D she would have looked funny. The doctor downgraded her for cosmetic looks as well as there not being enough space for the D implant. She had the incision underneath and has not lost any sensation. And she did silicone, to. This is a permanant decision so dont be afraid to spend the extra $ if you can and it gives you the right comfort level. Suggestion: go to the store and try on C and D bras - bring some apples/oranges/socks to fill out the cups and see what you feel comfortable with. Your shirt size will definately change. But be assured...a flat tummy is nicely complimented by bigger boobs, I have really come to enjoy that look. (I am barely a D)

Hi Renee....I am so jealous you are getting the body I want..... anyway here are my thoughts..... Boobs are important and so is the nipple sensation. I would not want to lose that feeling. :shock: Anyway as far as size....If you go big C I think you should be fine but the bigger you are the bigger your shirts will be and will the size make you feel fat? It would for me...Just a thought. As for your girls I think you handled it well. They need to know we messed up and are trying to repair our damaged bodies...You are doing great... Hugs, Chris

TODAYS QUESTION: IF YOUR LIFE SO FAR HAD TO BE DESCRIBED AS A WEATHER FORECAST WHAT WOULD IT SAY AND WHAT DO YOU THINK THE COMING FORECAST WOULD BE? Mine forecast was started off Stormy with damaging winds and along came the sun (John) and then calming clear blue skies for many days. Some light rainy days scattered through out the past and the future looks bright and sunny with scattered clouds...... HAVE FUN........ hugs, Chris

Hi Peeps....I am taking a class called Personal growth and it is supposed to get us to know more about ourselves and to improve our relationships with other people. Every week the teacher gives us a question for the day and her question yesterday made me think of helping us all here. (Perhaps) Maybe if appropriate I will post them here every Friday and it may activate te board a little more. Have fun because I know I did... TODAYS QUESTION: IF YOUR LIFE SO FAR HAD TO BE DESCRIBED AS A WEATHER FORECAST WHAT WOULD IT SAY AND WHAT DO YOU THINK THE COMING FORECAST WOULD BE? (I tried to peak over Brittany's shoulder to see her answer but she would not share....I hope hers is sunshine and roses..... ) Hugs, Chris

Topic: Who has had breast implants? &other ramblings on plastics
Just curious as to what you chose, silicone or saline, what incision you got when you had them done and if you lost any sensation. Also were you happy with the size? I'm supposed to get my augumentation done March 5th and have a lot of decisions to make and I'm not sure. I'm actually sort of freaking myself out, and considering not doing it. I wasn't scared so much with the other surgery... it's just that the breasts, for the most part ARE totally cosmetic so if something screws up, I didn't HAVE to do it! With the skin I figured it just couldn't possibly look WORSE! Here's the situation... I have size a boobies... there is a slight sag from losing weight... he wanted to do breast lift, I don't want one for cutting out a pinch of skin. Plus I've seen people with small breasts that sag do just the augumenation and have great results... dilema.... I wanted the incision in the fold underneath the breast. Chance of losing sensation is 5 percent. He wants to do through the areola so when he puts the implant in, and if it doesn't look right.... he can just trim a bit of the skin up that way if he HAS to! So great right? I cover my ass, BUT... the chance of losing sensation goes up to 25 percent from going in that way! That's a HUGE jump, and sorry if I'm being graphic, but it would really suck to lose that feeling you know? My other decisions are silicone is 1500 dollars MORE than the saline. Huge dollar amt. The feel more natural for sure but not 1500 dollars worth haha, and DR recommended them too because i basically have no breast tissue for the implant to hide under. I'm just kind of scared of the silicone even though they are thought to be safe again. And the last issue is size. To not have a lift and just use the implants I need to go large. I told him a large C big D, like a 450 cc implant for sure. My mom, b/f, almost everyone freaked out and said it would be way way to big on me. DR thought it would be okay, I think it looks okay. I have big shoudlers and hips to pull it off, although I have to admit since I've never had big boobs I'm worried about how clothes fit... like buttons popping off! haha! or just having to buy clothes that fit in the breasts but then don't fit your waist well, but bag on it. Is that the way it usually is? Sorry really stupid question and I'm sure you're laughting, but basically you're talking to someone that really never went through puberty for boobs... they didn't really grow! Thanks everyone!!! Hugs!!! P.S. People were right about this be addicting... on my consult Wed... he mentioned touching up the tummy tuck areas and I'm like great BUT, I want my back down now, and the thighs of course he knew about, but now I want lipo too. Ugh! I THOUGHT my back part was okay ... but you sit down and that back/hip area .... POOLS around when you sit/lay. And the pants fit great in the front, well now in the back I have like a baby mini inch muffin top from that skin being pushed up! I'm also getting a little concerned about my teen daughters. One is calling me barbie now. I hope I'm not sending them the wrong message. I did set them down and tell them that I'm not trying to look perfect, just fix what I did to ruin my body from being obese... that I would never have considered plastic surgery otherwise. I hope they understand but teens' minds seem to work a little different you know?
