Title: OMG...I'm getting a boob job on October 12th!!!!
Post by: jamiejo on September 20, 2011, 12:35:01 PM
OMG...I'm getting a boob job on October 12th!!!!

Okay, this was never in my original transition plan, but things just haven't progressed/developed they way I wanted.

So I found a surgeon (which just happened to be local), that had the skill set, reputation, experience and conservative approach to BA that I desired.   His concern was due to my frame and height, we needed to choose a size that was appropriate and to look natural.  I'm 6'-1", larger frame, so we are going to do about 400 CC, which should be a large C or small D cup.

So my ex-wife (who is extremely jealous and pi$$ed off at me) is going to take me, pick me up from the hospital and stay over night to make sure I recovery from surgery - what a trooper!!!

Now I need to work out how to tell my parents???

I will record everything on my Youtube Channel.  Should make interesting viewing!!! hee hee hee

Cheers,
Jamie

Jamie,

Did you and your wife break up because of your transition?

Jamie,

Yes, she didn't want to be a lipstick lesbian like me!  We are still friends, I baby sit the dog when she travels, I painted her condo, moved her.  We still have dinner and share a bottle of wine.

What kind of implants are you getting? Under or over the muscle? Where will the incision be made? I hope you don't mind the questions.

As far as your parents, I'm sure it can't be any harder than telling them about your FFS.

Mind these questions.....yes, this totally personal!!!  Just kidding!!!
Silicone cohesive implants by Allergan - Natrelle.  Funny I worked on a building design project for Allergan, I should get a discount.  Will be going sub-muscular, with the incision it will be in the breast fold.  My scars from FFS and other "incidents" do heal up very well.  Dr Spiegel had be use a cream to help with scaring and it worked great, I need to buy some.

As for telling my parents, they were troopers, along with my aunt.  They flew over to the states from Australia to be there.  They are also coming back for my SRS in April.  Let's say I have given them a few shocks over the past 12 months.  They even watch every one of my Youtube Video's and they share them with friends.  I couldn't of asked for better parents....it's just they worry about me all the time.

jamiejo you look absolutely gorgeous and very female! I had a boob job booked in for 2007 but pulled out as I felt I wasn't good enough or looked good enough. I still feel like that but if I looked like you I wouldn't have hesitated. I'm not sure how I will over come my problems of not being confident about myself.

Hey Jaime,

Obviously let us know how you go.

I remember hearing a surgeon saying that they always try to get the patient to go a little bigger that they initially wanted, because after surgery they are swollen and most ladies get used to it. They then get a little depressed when they go down a bit.

I will ask - How much touch up surgery is need after a BA?  Will you need to fix things every 5 - 10 years ?

Would love to know.

Congrats,

Jenny

Hey Jenny. I know what you mean. I got 375 CC's and although I love them, I wish I would have gone a bit bigger but I'll be okay. When I have to replace them, I'll get them bigger.

I've had mines for a lil over 4 years and everythings great. If I remember correctly, my doctor said they can last 30 years. I could be wrong though.

Per the surgeon, don't mess with them until you start having trouble, pain, shape change, etc.  He believes the modern implants will be a good 10 years.

Thanks for your comments.  There is nothing wrong with being jealous, it's makes you work harder then you do for something you really want!!!  If you a really really jealous, I will share the pain with you.

Hope all goes well with the boob job.  C or D cup sounds good.  A friend of mine regrets not going bigger as after her BA 5 years ago she only just makes a large B small C cup with a slightly padded bra.  She is thinking about having them redone to increase the fullness.

I regret that as well. The breast size should go according to the width of your back.

Thank you Christy!

So I have been on HRT now for 12 months (age 35), size A at the moment and that's pushing it (even with a push bra).  I do wear a 38 B bra which has a ton of padding (did I mention a ton of padding), but then i have to wear a tight fitting cami to keep it in place.  Plus, when it's is hot, this also sucks.  Stuffing a sports bra to go to the gym - sucks even more!!!  My endo didn't think I would get much, so what's another $7K.  Someone needs to help this USA economy recovery :P

It seems like a lot of money to spend if it were to only last 10 years but you can also think of it as $58.33  a month for something that makes a dramatic result. That's only $1.94 a day...  Maybe make a deal with your surgeon to bill you $50 a month then your next BA is prepaid?  :-)

A very small A - very small!  My man-boobs were bigger then the growth I had  :'(.  I have been on HRT for 12 months.

Also, being tall and a large frame/torso I pretty much knew the growth would be minimal. 

Thanks BTW.

Hi Jamie,
I wish you well. Look after them and they will serve you well. I know the feeling of confidence they will give you. Don't be too concerned by your parents, after all this is for YOU not them. It would be nice to have their approval, but not mandatory.
I can already hear the excitement in your posting. We'll be thinking of you on the 12th Be safe, well and happy.
Lotsa luv

Thanks Catherine.

Excitement - Yes.  Don't worry I will video & youtube everything about my surgery.  But no staring at my new cleavage!!!

First I need to get through next week first - I'm back to E3000 in Dallas.  Round #8 for Face (clearing should only be 2-4 hours) & Round #1 "South Pole".....AAAARRRRRHHHHH!!!!!  While Dr Brassard does not require it, I'm doing a little deforestation and pruning to keep the hedges in alignment...hee hee hhee. 

Take care,
Jamie :)

Hi Jamie.

Well, by now you have had your surgery and are recovering now. I imagine it was a shock seeing them for the first time, I remember my first moments well. Even though you might be in pain and shocked by their size and position, know that they get better and better each month and year.

I'll post an avatar pic of mine. It'll give you an idea of how soft they get.

hugs.
