The Boob Backstory
But first, let me really take you on my journey to get to a mind-set in which I would consider altering my body — even for just a day. My blouses have gaps around the neckline; my swimsuits include lumpy, "floating" pads; and I still qualify for training bras. Sexy hasn't been a feeling that comes easily to me. In fact, I wasn't comfortable going topless in front of a guy until I turned 22. I am the ideal textbook candidate for breast implants (something I have been dreaming about since high school). But am I ready for the physical, emotional, and financial commitment that comes with plastic surgery?
So by the time I was introduced to Manhattan plastic surgeon Dr. Norman Rowe and his Instabreast treatment, I felt grateful that there could be a trial-run solution to my lifelong insecurities. Dr. Rowe had identified a problem in women like myself: there were limited options for us to see how we would look if we actually got breast implants. We could wear a seriously padded bra or look at a photoshopped image of ourselves presurgery, but there was no way to actually test-drive the feeling of larger breasts.
Dr. Rowe's brilliant plan started with facial fillers. He would inject his patient's faces with saline so that they could see what they'd look like with plumper laugh lines, lips, and the like. And then it clicked that the same strategy could work on the body. "Before we perform surgery on the breast, we inject local anesthesia with [saline], and I always thought to myself after I injected it, 'Well, it looks great, I'm done! Let's go home,'" he joked. "But, since it looks that good, I realized it would be great if the patient was awake and could get an idea of what she wants." Thus, Instabreast was born!
