BEFORE

"I guess when I look back, I was never really happy with my breast size. I am fairly small in both height and weight but my breasts were never full enough. (You can see what I am talking about in my "before" pictures.) Clothes never fit exactly the way I wanted them to.

I started thinking about having breast surgery as long ago as high school. But, I've only been thinking about it seriously for the last couple of years. It seems like I know more and more people who have had it done and they have all been satisfied with the results. This gave me a lot of encouragement.

My friends said to wait until I was finished having children so I waited a little longer. My parents and friends at work thought the whole idea was a little weird but basically they were encouraging. My fianc? was also very supportive. When I step back to think about it, it didn't really make any difference what anyone said because I was doing it for me and me alone. I knew it would help to make me feel better about myself.

My income tax return motivated me to take the next step. I knew one of the Advanced Concepts staff members from my neighborhood. Also, I had already had micropigmentation (eyelids) done and a belly button ring put in at Advanced Concepts. I was very happy with the results and the way I was treated so I didn't even think about going anywhere else for my breast augmentation."
