So I received my medical package in the mail from Dr.Brassard's office in Montreal and I have a quick question.
The photos that you are supposed to take..
1) Do they have to be nude front/side profile photos or clothed (thats the part i'm most confused about because it says that if you cant make it to montreal for the consultation you have to take two photos of your breasts to send to them)
2) if they're supposed to be nude how do you go about sending that in the mail since you can't exactly get them developed at shoppers or wherever, and i don't have a home printer. or can you put them onto a memory stick and stick it in with the package?

i would say it would be best to email via attachment to josee or suzi.

its the yes/no on the nude photos that im confused about because its says if you cant make it there for an in person consult then you have to send two pictures of your chest. so what? i'd be sending two sets of the same photos?

I would ask the office but if it's for consultation I would say birthday suit.

They do a before hand mark up and that would be more personal.

Always best to just ask the office for any specific in they want a long shot or close shot picture.

i can help you with this, and any other questions you might have as i just went to them for my surgery during the march break.

they have to be nude. i took a nude photo from the front and from the side. i took it with my tablet so it was better quality, uploaded the pictures to my computer (as you would with your phone or w/e else, you know, with a usb cord) then i attached them in an email to them.

Dude you should really ask the surgeon's office, how are we supposed to know all this?

I was asking people whom have gone to brassard/belanger before.

I just did this for a different surgeon's office because I'm also doing a long-distance consult.  The pictures have to be nude from the waist up but do not need to show your face.  They cannot tell anything about your chest if you're clothed.

I took four pictures because I had to take them in a mirror with my phone cam.  If you have a SO or willing friend/ relative, that would be better but I think mine worked out fine.  I took two frontal pictures - one with my arms raised and from directly front-on; the other with my arms to my sides and a bit of an upshot.  I then took two profile pictures (one each side), one with my arms raised to shoulder height, the other with my arms raised to mid torso.  You should also include (regardless of if that ask for it) your basic measurements (weight, height, bra size or measurements if possible). 

I uploaded my pictures via a file-sharing service that doesn't require an account (only the link) to access, and sent the link to the doctor's nurse with whom I'm in contact.  You could also simply send it as an attachment.  Make sure that the photos are well-lit, and that you've cropped them to your comfort (I cropped out my artwork that was in the background, for example).  You *can* opt to include only your chest but I included most of my upper body so that the doctor could see how I carry both fat and muscle.

Hope this helps!  It looks like we're in the same boat; pass me an oar, will ya, mate?
