It's been a little over months now and I honestly forget that they're not my real boobs. Aside from feeling a little strange when I use my pec muscles too much, I feel totally normal. It's exactly what I wanted at this point in my life. I even did a boudoir shoot for my husband for Christmas and I never would have done that before. I never felt sexy enough. This has been a great experience for me and I'm truly thankful.

6 week appointment
I went for my 6 week post-op appointment with my PS yesterday. It was great! She said everything looks perfect, and I agree. ;)
My incisions are still slightly red, but totally healed and I have absolutely no pain. The mondor's cord is almost totally gone.
The only time I am aware that they're even there is when my husband lays on top of me and I can feel them move a bit. Other than that, it's awesome!
I have run a little, but no big workouts yet. I think I'll still wait a while for that, and just get back into cardio.

Hi. I got 175cc, cohesive 2, silicone Mentor, mod+ profile,over the muscle. I like the size which is definitely not more than a B but I do not like the big space in between the breasts. It was a good thing that your doctor picked mod profile because the base diameter is wider than the mod+. You have to wait for some months though to see the final results. Mine felt huge and very heavy at first and for a few months but now they are much smaller and feel very natural. So, yours will become smaller in time, I think. I do not know why some women say that they become bigger when they drop and fluff. They move naturally as I move my arms and when I lie down they are pretty much the same like when I am up. I could not touch mine or take off the surgical bra for a long time after the surgery, they hurt so much if I did not have the bra on to keep them in place and the doctor wanted me to wear it especially if I went dancing or something like that. Anyway, enjoy them, they good perfect and do not worry looking at them all the time to see how they progress, let nature take its course.

you look great, when did you start working out again? are the implants obvious when touched/squeezed? thank you

September 7, 2013
Not at all. I can barely tell they're there when I touch them. I started running last week. All good so far!

September 13, 2013
So what profile did you end up getting? Did your ps recommend the size or yo didnt want to go bigger?

September 14, 2013
I got moderate profiles. I actually wanted to go smaller, but was confident with the size decision by the last pre op appointment.

So, as of yesterday it has been 4 weeks since my BA surgery. I feel totally normal and comfortable now. Aside from my incisions still being a little red, and the mondor's cord still a little visible when I stretch, I am totally recovered.

I'm 8 weeks post-op and I tried a light jog the other day. I meant LIGHT as in 30 seconds long. I was SO SORE the next day. So I definitely say 4 weeks is too early. Just walk for now!
August 11, 2013
I was approved for light cardio no resistance at 4 weeks... So I started with walking. Mind you, I had a tummy tuck with my BA so I was truly not ready for more than that!

I'd ask your doctor. I'm nearly a month post op & my doctor okayed me for cardio as long as it felt comfortable. A week ago, bouncing felt uncomfortable, but a couple of days ago I did a bunch of jogging & plyometrics w no pain. He said a good test would be to jog up a few stairs & if it hurts, don't do it. Still, i recommend following your own doc's instructions! He knows your condition best!

Oh my gosh, I'm so glad I found your review!! I'm leaning towards getting a small augmentation. Could you please tell me how yours look lying down? Are they very stiff? I hope to find a post with a side angle lying down pic. My biggest concern now is softness and bounce. I'm having such a hard time deciding on cohesives (like sientra). I want more protection so I can do lower volume, and a low profile to look natural and bc I have a short chest to chin area. But I I really want soft bouncy boobs. Aggh! This is so hard! Sorry to write so much, but I'm probably going to bookmark your review and ask lots of questions because your situation is so similar to mine. Thanks so much!

Mine are now very soft and squishy and bounce when I walk! They also do spread to the sides a little when I lay on my back. My hubby says the only reason he can tell they are "fake" is because the skin is still tight like when you are younger! Ha!,I told him no one wants to have saggy boobs, duh!!

Hi! Sorry I haven't been on the site in a while.
My implants spread like normal boobs when I lay down. I've been wearing a tube bra at night to sleep in just to keep them in place. They're really soft now, but they were pretty stiff for the first 4 weeks.
I don't ever HAVE to wear a bra, I just do so in order not to have nipple showing. I absolutely love the size I chose.

Thanks so much for your posts! We have similar body types. I'm 112lbs and 5'4". After breast feeding my son my breast shrunk to a 32 A. I really just want to be a full B, small C. I live in Lebanon, TN so I am considering you doctor since she seemed to do such a great job! I'm getting married next year (no date set yet) and I really want to have them before the big day. Did you have to get on a waiting list for your surgery?

August 28, 2013
I highly recommend her. She's a great doc and such a nice lady!
I am now a 32C but before I could barely fit into a 32A. 190CC was the smallest my implants came, and that seemed big to me, but it feels perfect.
