On the 14th of December I had my breast augmentation at the Belgian Breast Clinic (BBC). I myself struggled with certain questions before and after surgery. Therefore I want to provide you some pre- and post-op information and advice. It is quite a read but I hope it will help some of you out. Please note that I write this bases my own experience, further literature and information I gathered on RealSelf. As the title showed I got Motiva ProgressiveGel PLUS (round), 295 cc (full profile), dual plane, inframammary incision and went from 70B to a 70E (European measurements). I am petite, have a athletic posture, train 5 times a week, have no kids and I am 28 years old. Pre operation 1. Be aware of the risks Not to scare you, but be aware of the risks. Despite technology and knowledge nowadays, there is no guarantee for a 'good' result. 2. Expectations versus (im)possibilities of your body - Ask everything. What I believe that is the most important is to communicate your expectations. If you are picturing the 'round, big cleavage wish boobies' show these examples to your surgeon and ask if the result that you are picturing is (even) possible. The only thing (s)he can and will guarantee you is that your boobs are going to be bigger. Everything else is an expectation, like bra size. There are simulator that claim to predict 'the result' of your breast augmentation. (I personally believe that is a waste of money and may lead to disappointment afterwards). A breast augmentation depends on the (im)possibilities of your body. I bring this up because I have read a lot about the ‘gab’ between the breasts (intermammary cleft in medical terms) and how to get rid of it. (Mostly this question is asked after surgery and therefore I want you to realise this before surgery). The answer to the question is simple; you can not undo this gab with surgery. If you have a wide gab now, you will have a wide gab with implants. As you can see, I also have I wide gab. It was there before and it is still there (my gab is approximately 3 fingers wide). Implants have a certain diameter. If you don’t have a wide chest, you won’t be able to get really big implants, because there is simply not enough space. If you insist on having really large boobs with a small chest, you can, but half the implant will be wider than your chest which can cause inconveniences with day-to-day activities. - Make pictures When fitting implants make pictures so you will remember what it looks like later on. If you struggle with the size or what to want to know what it is going to look like in a bra surgeons recommend tot fill bags with rice (make sure you put your scale on ml because ccml). I did do that myself. See picture for reference. 3. Size does matter Proper size prevent displacement. Be aware that larger implants (500cc or more) are typically more prone to displace downward or outwards. 3. The surgeon Because I stated that your own body and the size of the implants effect the result I highly recommend to listen to the (objective) surgeon especially with downsizing. In the end (s)he does know best. But if you have the idea that the surgeon does not know best (and thereby I mean when the surgeon is subjective) I would recommend to get your breast augmentation elsewhere. I have read a lot of reviews claiming that the surgeon did e.g. push to go bigger. I believe a surgeon should inform you what your possibilities are and what not, but needs to stay objective and should not force you in getting a certain type or size of implant. 4. Motiva Implants The Motiva implants consist of gel. They use the ProgressiveGel (round), the Progressive Gel PLUS (round) and the ProgressiveGel Ultima (teardrop implants or ergonomix how they call them). The profile you can get are: mini, demi, full or cores. They use different names for this. I think you can compare this to low, moderate, high and ultra high. If you are wondering what profile you are getting (or other girls got/have) you can look at the amount of cc’s. In the table on their website you can see which volume correspond with which profile. E.g. 380 cc (purple column) demi profile. 5. BBC If you want fair, honest and professional advice, and a fabulous result I think BBC is the place to be. My breast were uneven and the one was bigger than the other. Dr. Verdonck managed to even my breast out and make them the same in volume with the same implants (295 cc on both sides). 6. For the girls who lift - Exercise pre operation It is recommended to not go to the gym the week before surgery because this will increase pain after surgery. I stopped training my chest two weeks before surgery but went to the gym till one day before surgery. I keep going to the gym not to be stubborn but I simply didn’t know. Despite that I did not experience a lot of ‘extra’ pain. I have not been in pain at all actually because of the prescribed medication. I would recommend to stop training your chest way before surgery because the looser the muscle the easier for the surgeon to put the implants in place (if dual plane). - Exercise in the future I was really worried that I would not be able to train my chest anymore but my surgeon told me not to worry about migration of the implants (well at least if you are not ‘a real bodybuilder’). Despite this I have decided not the bench or train chest anymore. Better safe than sorry. Post-operation 1. Do not peek If your new chest is covered in bandage that is a total bummer. But, as excited as you are, leave the bandage on the time recommended. This is important for the placement of the implants. Also make sure to keep the bandage dry. Wet bandage is a dream come true for bacteria and you sure as h*ll want to keep those lill [RS bleep] away from your wounds. If you are wondering why: Google 'breast infection - implant gone wrong'. (I highly recommend not to watch that tho). 2. For the girls who lift - Wait Do not use your breast muscles to early. The surgeon will burn an incision in your muscle to place the implant (again if dual plane). I am glad I knew this afterwards and maybe you rather don't want to know but by sketching this image I hope that you will understand the importance of not using the muscle. If you do, your muscle may tear and therefore the implant will shift/move; you will be in serious pain and your breast will look weird. If you want to know what that looks like Google 'implant displacement' (which means shifting or migration from the implant up, down or to the sides) '. - Wear the elastic band Especially when muscular wear the elastic band above your breast all the time as long as required to prevent your implants from migrating upwards. I hope this is useful information. If you want a breast augmentation please inform yourself. If you have your surgery planned I wish you the best of luck! Updated on 6 Feb 2019: As requested an update with pictures from the sides. This is zeven weeks post surgery. My follow-up consult is planned on the 21st of February. Hopefully Dr. Verdonck is going to tell me that everything looks fine. Updated on 6 Jan 2021: Update after two years. Within the two years I had no pain, other complaints or whatsoever. I went for my yearly checkup half a year ago. Everything was fine, although Verdonck recommended me to use some oil to keep the skin elastic (which I have to admit, forget regularly). Powerlifting is going good, including bench. Updated on 21 Jul 2022: Still loving them as I did from day one. Still no pain in the chest while (power)lifting. And still working out 5 times a week. Actually, the years after I got my breast augmentation are the years I gained the most muscles in my upper body. I can workout as I please (boobwise). (I added a picture of my physique for those who want to know what lifting entails for me and want to compare physiques if questioning breast augmentation).
31 years old, 5'4, 140lbs, 34C/B, no kids, no real sagging but naturally lower nipples to begin with. I've always wanted to have breast implants, even though I really liked my breasts and felt comfortable with them. As i got older I became less satisfied with the size and the changes. I thought I would need a breast lift as well, but the augmentation without a lift was suggested by my PS. I think in the future after I am finished having children I will get a lift and perhaps go even bigger. I did get a BA sooner because I always thought I wanted to have children first, but that hasnt happened yet and I didnt want to wait any longer! Plus these days getting breast implants are so routine and many women have children after implants. Before I got implants I was at a stable weight within 3 pounds, healthy, active and in a good place about how I felt about my body. This helped me make the decision. I decided to go to Wellness Kliniek in Belgium because of the good reviews, low price and location. BA in the USA can be very VERY expensive and not necessarily render good results. I looked up the clinic and got in touch, emailing photographs of my breasts. Within a few days I heard back and the secretary had shown my photographs to the surgeon who gave some initial thoughts about surgery (no lift needed) but if I would really like to raise the position of the nipple on the breast I could see another surgeon who does lifts. I was seriously on the fence almost until the day before surgery. I opted for "Next day surgery" which means you go for a consultation and then have the surgery the next day. This is a service especially for international clients. I paid my deposit 500euro about a month before and since it was refundable I thought about it. Updated on 25 Mar 2016: 3 days post-op! So I am really sore, it's very painful to be outside or be cold. it causes the muscles to contract. Also, Taking down my clothes to go to the bathroom can be really painful and difficult . it's a humbling experience having to ask someone else to pull my pants up, put my hood on, zip my coat, tie my shoes.. Etc. My belly is flooded with fluid and very swollen! this happened in the first 24 hours following my surgery. I'm trying not to worry about it because it's normal for some women to experience it after a breast augmentation. But Naturally, I really don't like it. Sleeping is a challenge because I do it on an incline. sitting up and laying down sends electric pain through my breasts especially the left (?) still trying to find my comfortable spot and get used to sleeping on my back as I normally sleep on my tummy. First night I slept only 2 hours, second night 5, last night about 5.. I wake up wanting to stretch and this hurts! the bandage is still on and I am wearing the strap 24/7. I think I was wearing it a little too tight for a while and the swelling made the pressure unbearable. I called my PS and he advised that I can cut into the bandage if need be and to also not To wear the belt too tight. Had some troubles with the clinic and pain but I will write more about that experience later. I can't wait to see the result, but I am also nervous because they are a little high; maybe it's better not to see them at this early stage. I go back to work in a few days and I'm very nervous what that will be like. I hope I don't have to call in sick. Updated on 29 Mar 2016: Today is the 7th day. In general I have less pain each day and more range of motion with my arms. On day 5 I felt great and did a lot even Had (careful) sex... But afterward my breasts were very painful, and stayed that way the next day.. So probably won't be doing that again for a while. woke up with back pain and shooting pains in my left breast. Boobs were pretty swollen all day and I swear they appeared to be "rising", I tried to wear my strap in the right position but it was still u comfortable and I often had to take it off to breathe a minute or two. Dr said they will swell if I do too much so I assume that's what's going on. Felt a little grumpy from the discomfort and inability to clean or do much around the house. On the evening of day 6 I took some pain medication and it helped me relax a little. Today day 7, I am functioning pretty well. I am back to work. Carried a small bag of groceries and my backpack to work. still walking VERY slow cause I am out of breath easily and takes me long to sit up and lay down. there is a big pressure on my chest and I can feel the weight of the implants. Wearing a sports bra and the strap the last few days. some moments are more comfortable than others. Grateful to be able to wash my hair (bent over the tub) and sit in a Shallow bath. sleeping inclined seems to help with the swelling. my skin around the breasts is very itchy due to the skin stretching. have numbness in random places around the bottom of the breasts, but luckily I still have feeling in my nipples, it's the least of my worries. The first 5 days I had the rustling bubble sound in my upper chest and now it has disappeared as well as much do the abdominal swelling. Gently stretch my arms up over my head and try to do small stretches. Painful things: extending the arm with pressure like when wiping the floor, pulling open a heavy door, pushing in from a weird angle like when plugging in a heavy charger, walking too fast or being in the cold, sharp shooting pain when I do things too fast like make the bed, and carrying a heavy purse. I'm already obsessing about when they will drop and soften more. it's barely a week and I constantly check!! Really hard to be patient and calm my anxiety about developing capsular contracture.. Looking forward to getting stitches out and hopefully showering!! I am happy with the result so far. I like that it simply looks like an enhanced version of what I already had. this is enough for me. I am glad I didn't go for the lift to raise the position of my nipples too a) it's a major surgery b) my boobs were good enough to begin with c) I'm happy with what I have! Updated on 12 Apr 2016: Three weeks exactly So much has happened! I got my stitches out last week, which was brutal because the doctor just ripped off the bandage and started pulling at the stitches. Needless to say, there is hardly ANY scarring.. the incision is very small. about one inch or less on each side. It was very itchy before the bandage came off and continues to itch a lot. unfortunately I scratch in my sleep and it seems to irritate the scar and under my left great my scar is slightly raising. I will go to the pharmacy to buy special temporary silicone patches to ease the scar. Pain wise I am pretty much completely back to normal! I am able to get up and down and in and out of bed without that awful pain I had the first 10 days. I think really until about day 10 I had a lot of pain if it was cold, using certain arm motions, and having sex. still very sensitive nipples and they hurt a lot more after sex. I had my period for the first time since getting breast implants and my breasts were soooo tender especially the nipples! so that's something I will definitely prepare for next month. I used ice packs on my period to help with breast pain and swelling. and a lot of IBprof. I have been allowing my breasts to just be without a bra, and without the strap with light massage each day. they are dropping very nicely and it's helping with the shape. They are softening each day and massage helps a lot I think. I try to stretch my arms and squeeze my breasts together. At night I go to sleep wearing the strap and then end up unhooking it and resting without it. I do notice that if I do a lot of activity, they swell and I have some discomfort. When this happens I wear the strap, and rest and they feel better very quickly. Yesterday I had my first real shower and it felt amazing but also scary. afterward my incision sites seemed a little delicate and I think that's to be expected after a shower. I have some bruising from wear the bigger bandage was, and hopefully that goes away. I am very very happy with the results, although I wish I had gone bigger ;) 450-500cc :) maybe in the future. It's not noticeable at all in my clothes and nearly everything still fits. which is nice, but also disappointing. the most important thing is that they look and feel GREAT. I would rather have amazing smaller breasts than big mangled ones. But most of all I can't wait to start exercising again!!! I will probably start lower body soon... And take it really easy. I am supposed to wait until week six.. But I will see! Still need to review the clinic and my experience there. But I do want to say, Dr Verdonck is very available by phone and on point :) he is a fantastic surgeon!!! ***** I don't know why my pictures upload upside down Updated on 12 Apr 2016: Pictures for the previous post :) Updated on 19 Apr 2016: Almost back to normal! biking, fast walking, no strap the last few days, able to move and do everything really well. boobies seem to be settling and I am taking care of them. got a new little sports bra but I wonder if it's not enough support. Scars are healing well, silicone gel on it and it helps and feels better. lotioning the skin a lot too. something I have some strange pains in my breasts but it seems to be related to over activity. A couple nights ago I started sleeping on my side, oops! trying to stay on my back but is so hard. and in my sleep I forget; then the pain wakes me up. nipples still a little sensitive but nothing terrible anymore. the skin around my breasts where the bandage was is very itchy and I hope that passes. I'm not sure if this is related but since my surgery I have had a lot of acne, more than normal and I wonder if it's something with my body chemistry changing, it's rather odd. Going through this feeling of "not big enough" and not liking the results in terms of size!! it's a terrible feeling but I comfort myself with I would rather have great looking breasts than giant ones with bad results. I have great results, and I am happy! it will be nice to exercise again and get a real bra ;)
this site helped me so much, that i have decided to do my own review, especially because they are not a lot of reviews about any other countries... i live in Belgium and i have decided to got the Wellness Kliniek in Genk which has fantastic reviews and is one of the best in Europe... i made an appointment with Dr. Verdonck and I really liked him, he explained everything to me and he took his time. He is also one of the best rated cosmetic surgeon in Belgium and he only specialises in breast augmentation .... he uses the MIBIS method (Minimally Invasive Breast Implant Surgery - The MIBIS method is ideal in order to minimize the length of the incision, so as to keep the scar as small as possible . The MIBIS method is carried out with the aid of a special surgical devise which ensures that the incision , in order to bring in your breast implant, will be less than 3 cm / 1.2 Inch in length.) He also uses Monobloc SoftOne prostheses which are the new generation of implants. They are safe, soft to the touch and do not leak! Monobloc SoftOne prostheses are made from (high) cohesive silicone gel. This medical gel, with its thick sticky consistency, sticks together even if the prosthesis is dissected. Which made me very comfortable choosing this type of implants.. On the appointment Dr. Verdonck told me that the max i could go for was 350 cc due to my small frame... and the results that i was looking for is extra high profile... I was having really difficult time choosing between 225cc and 350cc because i didn't wanted them too big on me... when i was breastfeeding i had a C cup and i wanted them slightly bigger so at the end i chosed 350cc... i made a deposit and reserved a date... Updated on 27 Feb 2016: i didn't know how to feel, in one way i was really excited and happy but in another way i was really scared because i've never had an operation before or anaesthesia ... i've arrived at the Kliniek at 8am with my husband and the nurse checked all my details and escort us to my room, where i prepared for the operation... we waited there about an hour and then a nurse came to pick me up and we went upstairs where my surgeon marked me and answer any question that i still had and to confirm the size.... after i went to the operating theatre where they prep me up, and i still had mix feelings, i just couldn't believe this is actually happening.... then the anaesthesiologist came and i was out in 3s! i woke up sore and shivering but otherwise ok.... couldn't believe it was over.. when i arrived to my room i started to feel the pain so they gave me something stronger... i could eat and drink in the next 30 min didn't feel nauseous at all.... Dr. Verdonck came to see me and gave me prescription for my pain killers (ibuprofen 600mg, paracetamol 1g and antibiotic)... he also asked how i was feeling and that everything went well, he said that i need to have this bandage and chest band on for 2 weeks 24/7, no shower for upper part.... both of them are really uncomfortable, i don't know how I'm going to manage 2 weeks... in the next hour we went to the hotel, where i took another dose of painkillers and just rested... my husband actually managed to hit me with his elbow in my left breast!! i wanted t kill him... i was sore a little bit more afterwards and was really pissed off... during the night i slept for about 6h, which i thought was quite good... what do you think about the size?? Updated on 27 Feb 2016: on my first day i felt sore but ok, really difficult to get out of bed.. mostly i just relaxed and watch movies with my husband but in the afternoon we've decided to go for a little walk and i wanted to go to the Kliniek to ask some more questions... the nurse checked me because i said that yesterday my husband accidentally hit me in my left breast, but everything was ok, i was so relieved and i could actually see that i have a cleavage :) which was nice... so after 2 weeks, i will have a post op consultation, where my stitches and dressing will be removed and i will need to wear a sports bra for the next 6 weeks. i can also start doing massages and using scar gel.... after that we went for little walk but returned quickly to the hotel because i was starting to feel sore again... Updated on 27 Feb 2016: i woke up sore but the pain was manageable... slept for about 6h as well... i let my husband prepared the bags while i rested, because we need to take the train back home (3h).... before train we went to the store to buy some snacks and because there were a lot of people we needed to walk a little bit faster to catch our train = not good i felt really sore in 5 min and all the way to our home was really uncomfortable even when i took pills ... i arrived home and my 2.5 year old and 1year old were waiting for us.... i forgot about the pain in the next 1h but then my 2.5 year old hit me with his head in my left breast by accident!! omgg the pain.. and i was thinking really ?? left breast again!! during the day it was really difficult of not picking them up, because both of them love to be in my arms but my sister was here until we put them to bed... during the night i woke up because i was quite in pain i had a burning sensation in my breast especially my left one, i couldn't even put myself up from the bed to take a pill i needed the help from my husband... Updated on 27 Feb 2016: i woke up 6.30 and the burning sensation was back.... i was in quite big pain, i couldn't do anything, this was the worst pain since i had surgery, i think yesterday i did too much, (the train, the kids, didn't rest enough). i can't believe it was only my second ay from the surgery, i don't know why but for me it was like a week has passed.... i am trying to do nothing today, and taking pills nonstop... i just hope that my left breast will not have any problems due to my husband and my baby?? freaking out a little bit... the surgeon said that if my breast doesn't swellow double in size or i don't have any liquids coming from my dressing, all is good... but i still worry... i can't believe also that i will only see them in 2 weeks!! i wonder how they are already .... Updated on 28 Feb 2016: so i woke up yet again super sore and my left breast was really painful.... its so painful that i can't get out of bed, the burning sensation is super strong... during the day i can only feel pressure in both of my breasts (its similar feeling when i was engorged with milk), but when the evening comes I'm just terrified of the morning... i've sent an sms to Dr. Verdonck and he called me to see if i am OK and if i have any extra swelling or a fever or liquids coming from my stitches.. because i don't have any of this symptoms he said that everything is ok and that maybe i should sleep a little bit inclined for a few days and not on my back to relieve the pressure in the morning and that it will be better in the few days and that i can call him anyday and anytime...i just can't believe he called me on a sunday, he is super nice and you can see he cares about his patients... omg 10 days to go and i will see my boobies :))) also i've decided that today I'm gonna try to sleep on my couch and hope the pain will not be as strong as other days. during the day I'm quite active, playing with kids and helping to dress them up, can't do much which is really annoying, especially because my 1 year old has a 39 degrees fever so he isn't feeling well and because i cannot hold him its really tough for me, i try to cuddle him on my lap when I'm sitting, but its not enough :( so sometimes i feel quite stressful and upset i cannot soothe him properly... i think he realised i cannot hold him because now he goes to his dad all the time, he needs to carry him nonstop, which in one way its cute... i just want to feel better soon, that i can pick them up Updated on 29 Feb 2016: so i slept more inclined than usually this night and it was less painful to get up from the bed... I'm still taking pills for the pain...and i just felt super tired today, i had a little nap when my baby was sleeping.. and today I'm going to bed early... its so annoying i can't show any photos of my new boobies but I'm counting the days: 9 days to go!! its so weird that some surgeons recommend a sports bra or no bra at all or this compression bandage.... anyhow I'm thinking of buying this two sports bras after my 2 weeks.. what do you think??? Updated on 2 Mar 2016: so nothing changed much, i still need to take pills, especially in the morning, today i removed my blue bandage, my skin was so itchy underneath i could take it anymore.. mu husband helped me washed and then we went to the bra store to buy a sports bra because i didn't know what size to order... omg during the walk i could actually feel my implants it was really weird... when we arrived to the store i was really in pain especially my left breast and nipple and i could see that left one was still higher than my right.. the lady measured me 75 C but i could not fit it at all... at the end i could only fit 85D but the band under my breast isn't tight as it should be, i think i would need 80D but she didn't have it, so i needed to satisfy with this one, hope it will not interfere with my healing???? as soon as i came home i bought Lipoelastic PI Extra New post op bra and it should arrive on friday.. hope this one will fit... but i feel so much better without the blue bandage, but i worry about this stupid bra that dopant fit properly, what do you guys think?? it will be fine for 2 days?? since the operation i am soooo bloated its crazy, i feel so fat, i know i still didn't loose the baby weight (7kg) and i just don't feel right... i really ned to start exercising after 2 months.... otherwise I'm in love with my size they look so nice without a bra in a top, everything i always wanted :) can't wait for the to drop completely Updated on 3 Mar 2016: so because my sports bra doesn't fit properly my boobs hurted more than usually and the end of the day i had enough and my husband sewed my sports bra (yes he can sew and i can't) that it is more tight and what a relief when i put it on, he did an excellent job.. i still have a morning boob and my left one is still higher and have zingers than my right... today i could actually walk up straight for the first time with no pain/tightness... can't wait for them to heal completely Updated on 4 Mar 2016: just received my Lipoelastic PI Extra Postoperative Bra!! and it is soooo comfortable, I'm really happy with the purchase Updated on 7 Mar 2016: so tomorrow i will get stitches removed and i can see how the scars are looking... since yesterday i don't have really bad pain in my left breast, when i want to get out of bed i still get the burning sensation at the side of my boob and it goes to my nipple but no where near when i was scared to stand up, because the pain was just awful... i can also see the left one dropped a little bit and maybe its due to that, that my pain got manageable... so happy with the results can't wait for the 3 months mark.. gonna post some photos of my scars tomorrow and progress of dropping :) Updated on 9 Mar 2016: so i have just received my Lipoelastic PI Unique post op bra but it is the wrong size!! they sent me 70C instead of 75C.... i have contacted them and they will send me the right size today which is great :) i will also show you how my incisions look later this evening... I'm completely off my pain medications, my left boob still gives me sometimes a burning feeling but its not something i couldn't endure... and i don't feel so sore anymore at my left arm which is really good because sometimes i couldn't even move it.. feeling better each day and loving the results :) also you can see that my left one dropped nicely, soo happy Updated on 9 Mar 2016: the nurse said that the incisions are amazing and they are I'm so happy :) i took a shower and i can start massaging them as well Updated on 10 Mar 2016: just received my correct size lipoelastic post op bra :) and talking about the fast shipping, i emailed them yesterday i already receive it today :) its so comfortable, love it Updated on 11 Mar 2016: Updated on 11 Mar 2016: Updated on 14 Mar 2016: hi ladies, i have been feeling a lot better for the last couple of days... i don't have any zingers anymore in my left breast and this one dropped so nicely as well I'm so happy.... sometimes i can still feel some tightness especially when i want to get out of bed, but otherwise no pain.. i started to lift up my kids as well and didn't experience any discomfort at all YAY so happy... just if they brush against my boobs I'm still super sensitive and tender but i am just so glad i can lift them... can't wait for the 3 months mark Updated on 16 Mar 2016: so today its 3 weeks and i am feeling almost completely back to normal, the only thing i can't do is to reach something that is very high up... i love how my boobs look now, they are dropping and getting softer :) i will also start to apply scar gel on my incisions Updated on 18 Mar 2016: Updated on 23 Mar 2016: i can't believe it is already 4 weeks :) I'm still very happy with my results, sooooo because didn't experience any pain or burning sensations for almost a week, i thought I'm going to try to sleep on my back and not inclined last night... well huge mistake, i tried to get out of the bed and the burning sensation in my left breast came back!!!??? i was disappointed by this and actually just really pissed off... so i still need to sleep inclined... left one is just not co-operating hehehe.... i still need to be patient... on top of this both of my children have a fever and i have a really bad cold, i can't remember the last time i was so sick... hope we will get better soon i also have this urge to go bra shopping... so i keep need to remind myself that they will change and i need to wait, but seriously cannot wait for new lingerie :) Updated on 4 Apr 2016: sorry ladies for being absent but i was really feeling ill, otherwise im so happy with my results, can't wait for the summer time.. sometimes i completely forget that i had them done, they really starting to feel like my own :) getting softer and dropping really nicely. i do not do massages, i just can't find any time to do them, do you think they are really necessary???? because im loving my results already i dont feel any pain, my nipples are just a little bit more sensitive but thats all... i am still sleeping inclined, im sure maybe i could be on my back now, but i really dont mind anymore sleeping like this... Updated on 18 Apr 2016: so for about 2 weeks now i am having boobgreed, i mean they look super nice i like the shape and everything i just wish they were slightly bigger.... they look exactly like when i was breastfeeding and i knew i wanted them bigger than that.... so im feeling a little bit disappointed... in some pictures and outfits they look a perfect size but then in all the rest they just disappear i think... maybe i am thinking like this because i dont wear any bras and im sure with a bra they will look slightly bigger, but i wanted that effect without a bra... Dr. Verdonck said that 350cc is the max that i could go ( originally wanted 400cc).. so i went online and checked the difference between mentor and monoblanc: mentor UHP 350cc = diameter: 10,1cm ..... projection: 5,2cm monoblanc UHP 350cc = diameter: 12cm.... projection: 5,2cm so im sure i could go bigger with the mentor implants... i will see how im going to feel in the next couple of months but i am pretty sure that in the future i will go for 400-450cc.... but still super glad i did this, look so much better than before! otherwise im feeling super, nipples are no longer extra sensitive, i can sleep on my back or at the side... im putting silicone scar gel on my incisions and they are healing nicely.. Updated on 25 Apr 2016: hello ladies :) well its been officially 2 months post op :) can't believe it....went a little shopping today.... i don't have a lot of choice where i am and they have like 95% only super pushups, and every time i tried a push up bra, it didn't look good, maybe they still need to get softer for that kind of bras, but i don't mind, i like to be braless during summer.... still wish they will be slightly bigger but i am happy anyway... i also started doing my exercises today, so hope i will be in shape for the summer.. [RS bleep] Updated on 26 Apr 2016: so just a few photos of how they look in clothes and my incisions.... in some photos I wear the sports bra I just bought yesterday (pale pink one) and in some I am braless Updated on 17 May 2016: I have been feeling great, I really like how my breasts look, it was the best decision EVER... hope all of you are doing great [RS bleep] Updated on 20 Jul 2016: Hi ladies I havent been on for a really long time, but I couldn't see any changes so I am gonna show you how they look now. Still have mix feeling about the size, sometimes I am completely happy with the size and sometimes I still wish I went 400-450cc. Until now they were 100% identical but today I have noticed that my right one is slightly lower than the right, I am not sure if the left one will dropped too, but I am kinda sad because I really like the position of the left one, I didn't wanted them to drop further... that is why I wanted uhp.. so confused at the moment Updated on 23 Jul 2016: I just want to show you some photos where my boobs looks huge and other photos where they look normal, its just crazy what an angle of your camera can do... Updated on 30 Sep 2016: Sorry I havent been on the site for such a long time, but my laptop was broke and needed fixing.. Still very happy with the outcome but still wishing they could be slightly bigger... I absolutely loved when they were 3 months post op.. they looked bigger and I had more upper pole... Updated on 22 Aug 2019: I’m still so happy with my results . It was the best decision I have ever made. Dr Verdonck is the best . Literally everybody thinks they are natural , he did an amazing job . I am still thinking of going slightly larger but overall I am extremely happy with my results Updated on 26 Nov 2019: Still love them and it was the best decision I have ever made
happy with results staff were helpful and the Doctor was FANTASTIC! surgery went well 3 days after surgery were severe later was better and better I have already forgotten how it was I am happy with my new size the only thing I can say it was worth it .............................................................................................................................................................................
Ever since I can remember I have wanted larger breast. I breast fed 3/4 children and I would describe them as severely deflated B. I'm 5"3 142lbs and a 34B. I went to a consultation at Harley street back in 2008, paid the deposit, but was to scared to go through the whole process. A cousin of Mine who lives in Belgium got hers done at the wellness Klineik by a Dr Kristoff Verdonck. He had done a pretty good job and two year Later and she's still loving them. I was slightly worried about going abroad however because I was able to see the surgeons results via my cousin, it eased my concerns tremendously. My consultation is scheduled for October 15th 2016. I'm excited as i will be taking the Eurostar to belgium for the day.
