The initial consult was with the nurses. I got to see the Dr after I decided on the size initially to get the all clear on the sizing and type. I saw him just once before surgery, the day of surgery, and twice after surgery. Overall I was happy with the Dr and the process.

            thanks for posting your video; your results look good: ill have to check out ypur other videos on u tube! 
I like the video. I am going to check them out on youtube too. You are similar frame to me so the visuals give me s good sense of what mine would be like. Thanks so much
They look great!

Thank you for sharing your story and videos on RealSelf! You look great! Glad to hear you are doing well. How was your recovery? You mentioned some minor difficulty with your right breast incision. What happened with the sutures? Congratulations!

Hi! Yes the issue with the incision was the suture was pulling/digging into my skin. I went in just before 1 week post op, and the nurse just snipped of that end the rest of the sutures stayed on until the normal time. They were self desolving sutures.

Oh, good to hear it wasn't anything too terribly uncomfortable or serious. I love the dissolving sutures...they're great! I can't recall if you mentioned who helped you out the first few days of your recovery? Family?

Hi, yes my family and 2 of my friends were always around. I would not have been able to get through the first week without them. Very grateful. Tips I would say, is leave the pill containers open before surgery because you won't be able to open them on your own.

Sounds like you have a great support network! You're right, it's so difficult to open even a water bottle post op! Will you maybe be adding another video to RealSelf someday? I loved the first one!

Hi, I'm contemplating having a breast augmentation. I was just wondering how you feel 10 years later. Did you have you have any revision surgeries since 2013? Would you recommend having the procedure done?

ORIGINAL POST

I got my breast augmentation because I wanted to...

I got my breast augmentation because I wanted to feel better about myself. I am 31 now, I got the augmentation just before my 31st birthday, and I felt like a young kid. I still dressed like a young kid, and with small breasts I didn't feel sexy. I am finally getting used to them, but at first I went through some feelings of regret because of how they looked. They were really square, and I never thought they were going to look normal again, and they were looking weird a lot throughout the healing process. lol. I ended up at 34DD now after the surgery. I do feel they are a bit big. I initially wanted a full C cup, but I am starting lo love them, big or not. I've done a few videos on YouTube of my progress, you can find them here...
