not sure what to ask I'm the the pre-op side of things but I visted your page and I was reading your story(we both are going to dr oliak) and I was like..wow this all sounds like what I am dealing with..and I get down to the bottom and realize we have the same medical group (noble) lol! oh well atleast I know i need to be calling them a lot!

As a veteran of breast surgery, I would not only ask about size as you do not want a doctor to make your breast bigger than they are capable of looking natural actually. The doc who did mine said he had had many request to go ***** big, but refuses. I personally like silicone they feel very natural to me. You might want to ask what his opinion is of the difference aside from price. Silicone is approved by the American Cancer Association too and like I said more expensive that saline. I did not like the idea of having something in my body that could be filled at a later date. Also you need to know what kind of procedure he is going to do...is he reconstructing and augmenting? What kind of incisions does he make. Is he planning to move the nipple....there is not just going into the OR and coming out looking normal because when you first have the augmentation, they are huge and you might think OMG what did I do....well it does go down and you do not feel like you have boobs under your throat! LOL. Trust me I have a lot of experience with this...I have had 4 breast surgeries!

Good luck and go in there with a list!

Ahhh - you are a lucky girl.  I am still about a year out from my boobie rescue - lol. 

We had a couple great presentations from PS at the Sacto event which brought up good questions.  As the previous poster mentioned, incisions, type of implants, full scope of work planned are important.  So are cost & payment deadlines as well as any random questions like sensation issues, size option pros & cons, etc.

Good luck!
