Post Op-What Size Am I Now and What Will I Be in Few Months Time?

2,5 weeks ago I had a breast augmentation, I was 75B, 165cm tall, weight 50 kg, t-shirt size XS/S. I wanted to go to Full D or DD. But my surgeon advised he couldnt place anything more then 255cc so I got 255cc and now wondering what size will I be as a result? Will I get at least to D? How does it look like at that moment? Also how come can I still fit almost all my old 75B bras?Yes they look fuller in them now but still! Was it really impossible to go with300cc? Photos below Thank you

I would suggest now that the surgery has been completed that you don't base your happiness/satisfaction with the procedure on a specific cup size or specific breast implant size... more

Cup size and volume

Cup size does not always match the volume of the implants placed. The best thing for you to do is try on bras in a few weeks once the majority of the swelling dissipates.
