I had extensive loss of volume in the upper pile...
I had extensive loss of volume in the upper pile of my breasts and moderate volume loss in the lower pole.
My intention was to get from the empty B/C that I was to a full D/DD.
I had a mild amount of breast droop also and wanted to avoid a lift. I explained this to Dr Lim and he agreed a teardrop implant would provide adequate lift and volume to correct my issues.
I went with sub muscular approach with the inframamarry insision. I chose the NATRELLE STYLE FX-410450 thats a cohesive silicone gel teardrop implant, 450cc each, high profile, extra full projection. I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO HAPPY IN MY LIFE!
Dr Jake Lim in Parramatta Sydney is THE BEST! I had 3 consultations and he was by far the most knowledgable and honest and although a little more expensive you can put a price on his experience and amazing bed side manner! All his staff are beautiful and the facilities he practices and operates from are second to none. It didn't even feel like a trip to hospital!
I am not even in any pain! Mild-moderate discomfort somewhat like going to the gym a bit to hard but NO PAIN! Paracetamol has been enough to help me rest although sleeping upright at 45 degree angle is a challenge, I'm just so happy I couldn't sleep anyway!
Advice, have more than one consult, do you research in implant types and sizes as well as surgeons, you loose a little going under the muscle so go bigger and above all GO FOR IT! Do it for you!
I'm happy to answer questions and post better photos as my recovery progresses ????

My boobs look great!
So I'm not going to lie it's fairly uncomfortable right now and sleeping upright is driving me mental BUT I am thrilled with my new boobs!
I'm a little swollen right now and actually praying that I don't loose too much volume as I really like the way they look now.
I am day 5 post op. So sorry I haven't posted earlier but I've been trying to focus on resting and recuperating.
I'll give you the last 5 days in a nutshell -
Day of surgery - it was a strange feeling. A little heavy and very constricted and tight but the pain was slight and very manageable. I'm told since I've had kids that means I'm accustomed to breast pin and have a higher threshold so that's cool. Sleeping was difficult particularly because I was so so out of it from the anaesthetic. A friend lent me a wedge pillow so that was a fantastic help.
Day 2 - a bit stiff and sore today and a little more aware so I'm noticing a few strange things like squishing sounds if I move my arms the wrong way and shiny skin from the swelling. The swelling is intense, not painful just very uncomfortable. I feel like I'm engorged and want to milk myself haha. The pain relief is great and helps me be still enough to pas out and rest. Desperate for a shower!!! I've had little bird baths and needed help drying and dressing.
Day 3 - still stiff and swollen but WOW I look great! I can see a bit more form to my breasts now and to be honest I can't stop looking at them! I'm so happy! I'm finding the stabiliser a little uncomfortable and can't wait to remove it as I am getting a great sneak peak of my cleavage and it looks awesome! Still bird bathing to be safe but went and had my hair washed at the hairdressers. It made me feel so much better but I tire easily and came home and went straight for a nap.
Day 4 - I can move my arms a little more today. I'm still not lifting anything heavier than a cup of tea (hard work with three kids) because I don't want to risk my recovery so feeling a little helpless but I'm able to dress myself easily. My rule of thumb is a little mobility is healthy and good for getting your muscles working in recovery but too much can increase your swelling I've found. My butt hurts from sleeping upright! Again I'm still resting and taking it easy as I get tired quickly.
Day 5 - FEELING GREAT! Just looking forward to them softening up! I have already started looking online at bras but who knows what cup size I'll be. Right now it looks like I'll be a 34dd or 34e. At least that's my hope if they don't decrease to much after the swelling reduces.
I have my post op on Friday and I'll post a video after ????
