Office is clean and well kept. The ladies behind the desk were kind and friendly. Bambi is awesome she really made me feel comfortable at first meeting. Amy assisted me at my pre-op and she was great, was very informative and answered all my questions. We all shared the same excitement and they were excited for me to get my boobies done. Dr. Hankins went over the sizes with me and after viewing my breast he suggested 500cc high profile for me. So with him having more experience and then telling him what I would like to achieve he came up with that, and I'm glad. He really hooked me up! The procedure was fast, and the nurses at the surgery center were great, made me feel super comfortable and were kind. My second day after surgery I got the band unwrapped off my chest and they put me in a comfortable sports bra, thank God! The band rapped around your chest after the procedure is not quite comfortable, you feel lots of pressure. Pain wasn't too bad after being sent home , but at night it started to kick in. The morning is worst pain. But I made sure to wake up at 3 am to take pain meds so it would not be so bad in the morning. I'm drinking plenty of water and aloe Vera, snacking on healthy light weight food helps also. I don't have much of an appetite but it's okay I can use to lose a little weight! Boobs are sitting high right now but I understand they will drop beautifully thru out the next month,,, yay! I'm glad I chose Dr. Hankins for my ps, he is awesome. I would definitely recommend him to my friends. His staff is great too. Very pleased. I even got a free gift of Botox or Eye lashes treatment that comes with this procedure! How cool is that!

Feeling sore but calm and collected.

Third day after surgery, still taking pain meds. I sleep on a recliner which is great, easy to get up in middle of night to use restroom. I'm drinking lots of fluids! I take a nap during the day and that feels good. My shoulders are a bit sore but I'm sure it will fade. Taking it easy as much as possible!

Thanks BoobieBound, it's so exciting and yet nerve wrecking but once you are in the surgery facility it's done deal, the nurses take care of you and share your excitement. It went by so fast! I'm happy!

Congrats, I'm sleeping on my recliner too. I had the chair lift but relegated it to the basement and felt bad making hubby drag it back up. I'm okay getting in/out of the couch recliner though. I'm one day post and feeling good. You look great!

Thank you. I can't wait to go bra shopping! It will be awhile but looking forward to it. I couldn't sleep on the bed the first night, my husband moved the recliner upstairs for me too lol. Took my pain meds during the day on empty stomach and I got so sick, I had to lay for a while for it to where off. So just FYI.

Happy boobies day! What kind did you get, silicone or saline?
December 7, 2013
Hi I got silicon gel, 500cc. Under the muscle. My PS recommend it for me and after reading some of the reviews I stayed with it. I'm pretty tall 5'9 so he took that into consideration too. What's your status? ;)

I'm doing great! No more zingers, pain, and no more ultra nipple sensitivity. Just normal sensitivity! It was so much fun bra shopping after I got into the ball park, but before that I kept opting for what felt okay then after wearing for a few hours realizing I was in the wrong size. Now that everything is settled, I am having loads of fun.
December 7, 2013
That's good to hear. I bet you feel like a new women! I do! There has been a couple times that I thought to myself that maybe I should have gone bigger but I know they haven't settled in yet.. Do you know how long until they start fitting into place? Roughly?

I meant to say that I had to take the bras I bought at 1 mo back 34DDD didn't fit. All the bras at 6-8 weeks fit great and I love them. I used muscle relaxers for the first 3 weeks and they did wonders for helping me get comfortable so I could get a good night sleep. I also think they helped my boobie "settle".i feel so womanly now!
