Breast Implants: Stories

Hi gals,

So I've been wanting bigger fuller boobs ever since college, but only started to search on the internet for PS recently. I have only had one consultation but really liked meeting the doctor. She is relatively young comparing to most other men doctors in the area, but I like her because she operates with another female doctor together. They are both Stanford graduates and that adds a lot of weight to her experience in my opinion.

At first I was'nt sure to get saline or silicone implants, but more and more I read and look at before and after pictures, I think I'm more leaning towards getting saline now. That's what the doctor recommended me as well. I received a saline implants quote of $5300, and will have another "official" appointment soon. Will update after the next appointment, *fingers crossed*.

Had my "official" appointment today and scheduled to have surgery on this Friday Dec 2nd. Finally decided on saline, 300cc on left and 320cc on right. I'm so excited and at the same time scared... I'm prone on getting dark scratch looking scars, hopefully the one inch incision wont look too obvious! *fingers crossed*

Surgery is tomorrow 9:30am! Wish for the best!

Hi girls,

I had my surgery yesterday morning, 270cc filled up to 297cc and 307cc. I have to say, it was pretty painful afterwards, from the tight wrapping and muscle tightness. But after taking percocet (painkiller) and valium (muscle relaxer), i feel much better.

I just came home from post-op (taking off that choking tight wrapping.) I love the results, it's high and numb right now but I'm confident they will drop and relax more within the new few weeks. I don't feel pain now, just hard to raise my arms straight up. I will post more updates and pictures later. Thank you all for your support, especially Tori, I hope you had great results and not much pain!

So today is post op day 3, I feel better and better. The hardest part is really get out of bed, i have a really high bed and it's so hard for me to use my weak stomach muscle and arm muscle to push myself up. So I slowly maneuver and move off the bed, otherwise I ask my to help lift my shoulders and that helps a lot.

The boobs feel tight and I started massaging the top parts, gently and about 3 mins on each side.. Have no problem doing laundry, walking and even went to the mall to exchange something today. Tomorrow is Monday, I will go back to work (office job), just hope the painkillers don't make me drowsy tomorrow.

I like the size and shape, exactly how I wanted, not too big and natural looking. Tried on a 34c bra from H&M today, it wasn't big enough. I will wait for things to be fully healed then go on bra shopping, I think I will fit into 32D later on.

For those of you that are in the process of consultation or just thinking about it and doing some research, I strongly suggest don't overdo it, it should be an enhancement to your body and not a dramatic change. The bigger you get, the more complications and more risk of being uneven or further failures. Just do lots and lots of research and talk to your close family or friends on your thoughts and concerns before making any decision. And only do this for yourself, not for anyone else, it's your body, cherish it and love it!

Today is post operation day 5 for me (not including the surgery day), I've been working since Monday, my doctor called me super woman! Finished taking all the antibiotics, have a few more oxycodone and valium pills left. I absolutly love my new boobs, tried on my fav dresses and shirts without bras, and love my new look!! It just adds curves to my body and my bf is in love with my boobs too! Very happy!

The pec muscles are still sitting up high but I could feel them drop and soften little by little, hopefully by Christmas time they will be fully relaxed! If you guys know any good methods on how to speedy heal and drop faster, pls let me know!

It's Post Operation day 13, I feel great! Only time I feel sore or slight discomfort is in the morning. Went to Nordstrom and Victoria Secret for bra fitting and shopping, I'm a 32DD or 32DDD depending on the bras. So happy with the results, the pec muscles and implants are dropping and feeling softer day by day. Been applying kelocote scar gel on the incisions twice a day, the incisions are well hidden so I'm not worried even if they don't turn back to skin color. I will post pictures in few days. I'm one happy girl, 5500 well spent!
