3 1/2 months
2 1/2 months, not in love yet!
In my head I was gonna wake up and have big perky boobs. NOT!
Healing process sucks!!!
Will they ever look the same??
I look at my before pics and can see asymmetry and lefty being slightly bigger in size. I never noticed it before, but I wasn't looking at that. I liked them just wanted fuller breasts.
Now that they are I'm picking apart every aspect. I'm a perfectionist by nature- everyone has a flaw and that's mine.
I know they won't look identical because they didn't before. I had the same size implants put in both sides. The doctor said my difference in size was minor and trying to put a bigger implant in righty to match lefty would only make righty bigger than lefty.
I never thought to look at where my breasts crease where in position to each other. It's noticeable now that they have more weight on them.
I hope righty will drop more and look similar to lefty.
Will I have to have a revision?? Don't know. Will I need it - no. Will it bother me if they stay so different - yep.
My other dilemma is I no longer fit my sports bars, they are too tight and squeeze them. I can't find one that fits around -34 and also fits these boobs.
I got two underwire non padded bras 34 DD and they fit good but after 4-6 hours my crease incision on my left side starts to hurt / it's the lower crease of the two so it takes on most of the pressure and weight.
I'm gonna be on the hunt for something that fits comfortable.
So all I can say now is I like them but I don't love them yet!
Wanting perfection....
So today I was digging in my phone to find my original boobies and found a good one.
Righty didn't look like lefty then! I never noticed! Guess it didn't bother me?
Now after getting implants I'm expecting a miracle??? I've read implants magnify the imperfections or we are just so consumed with our new boobies we now are looking.
So I'm going to relax... Well try!
Provider Review
I contacted Spectrum Asthetics in March 2015, they responded two days later. My coordinator was Emily, I gave her all my stats that I wanted breast implants. I'm 4'11, weigh 125, 38 years old, have three kids, current size 34 C. She responded that I would need a lift, all in all would cost me $5,000. I told her I didn't want a lift and had never been told I needed one nor did I think I did. I paid a $300 deposit to hold my date which was over 90 days away. I sent in my photos at that time she stated he thought I needed a lift but asked for another front view. I sent in that photo and 30 days later I emailed asking if I still needed one and she said no. So I was very happy. They requested blood work early July which I knew I would need but they gave me 24 hours to get this and the closest facility was 3 hours away, luckily I had the day off of work. My labs cleared and I got a call from the nurse all was good. I used my care credit, I took the 3 years 14.99 %. I thought silicone where $3000 but when I asked what my balance was since I paid $300 down she told me $3000 because Dr.Ortega charges $3,300 even tho the website says $3000. No big deal to me I wanted Dr. Ortega. I had pre-op July 30, only waited a minute. Went into the finance office to pay, she said you owe $4700 and I was like no I don't. She said lift with implants and I said no only implants and silicone. She cleared that up and I paid. I then had to pee for them and got my prescriptions. Was told they would call me for my surgery time. She called about 2.30 and said I was at 6:30... Yea first one! Got there July 31st and no one was there. I walked around and said hello but nothing. Me me my husband sat on the couch talking. About 6:45 some people came in. They asked me if I was there for surgery and I said yes. She said pee in a cup and I'll tell them you are ready. Went back into the room, lots of questions. They I got to meet Dr. Ortega. He was nice, marked my body up. I told him what I wanted. He said 450cc HP silicone is all he could get in there but that should give me what I'm wanting. Told me to talk to the antheologist and I would look great. Talked to the meds doctor and I followed him into the room. Layer down on the bed, one arm pissed down with a cuff, the other my IV which he started with no problems. Felt the nurses put cuffs on my legs. They put an oxygen mask on me and told me he was giving me the good stuff. All I remember was telling them it tasted bad and I was out. Woke up in pain, gave me a shot and went and got my meds and gave me a pain pill and anti-nausea. I was back in my room by 10:30 am I loved Dr. Ortega and I will be back to have a TT with him.
