I wanted a BA because I'm in my mid 40's, no children and had a full hysterectomy. Ever since my hysterectomy, I lost weight and lost breast tissue.
I'm 5'5", 110 lbs and I went with Sientra 415 cc HP. I'm still getting used to them but am thrilled this far.
Dr. Harris and staff were AMAZING! Dr. Harris was patient, thoughtful, responsive, good listener, knowledgeable and professional. She is truly an artist. If I could give her more than 5 stars, I absolutely would!!!
Thank our Dr. Harris for all you do!
I'm on day 7 post-op.

I can’t believe how well recovery is going. On day 8 and feel great. Looking forward to the drop and fluff as they say but I know that will take a while.
Thank you Dr. Harris. You are amazing.

I had my BA on 4/26. Recovering and surprisingly not feeling bad what so ever. Just feel some tightness and my left breast seems more tender than the right. After my full hysterectomy a few years ago, my boobs shrank...lost tissue mass. Thought 415 might be too much for my frame but based on my measurements and discussion with Dr. Elizabeth Harris, I think it's just right. Thought I would share some pics as I'm I'm recovering. It's interesting to see the little changes daily.
Dr. Harris and staff were amazing! You just know when you find the right doctor. So thankful.

I'm so blessed to have found Dr. Harris. Just love her as she is so talented, highly skilled, professional, kind and caring. She spoke in laymen's terms so that I could understand and ask questions. However, next tine I visit with her, I'm taking notes because I'm extremely forgetful and don't want to have to call the office to remind me what she said. So ladies, be sure to take notes and write down questions to ask.
Update since my surgery on 4/26. This wasn't nearly as painful as I had anticipated. Just more tightness and tenderness than anything. Would do it all again..no regrets.

Wow. I can’t believe I am already 9 weeks PO. Stats: 5’5” 108 lbs, 415 Sientra silicone 107, HP. Just started running again at the 8 week mark. This makes me so happy. I was a little worried that with 415 cc’s, it might make it harder for me to enjoy my runs. Still feel a little numb under the left nipple and both nipples (especially my left) are still tender. No more pain though. My right breast seems smaller than my left but I had asymmetrical breasts before surgery. I also had a gap before my BA. Just my anatomy. I love what I see thus far. Just hope that my left catches up with my right. Even though they are asymmetrical, I seem to notice it more now than before.

Can't believe it's already been 4.5 months since my BA. So far I'm happy with the results. I'm back to running and the bigger boobs haven't been an issue with the right sports bra. The only concern I have is that my nipples are sill very sensitive and still kind of hurt/tender to the touch. Hoping that feeling goes away.
I have a wide breast plate so I don't have the cleavage that I wanted but that's fine by me. Can't change my anatomy. They were wide apart before too. It is what it is. As far as boob greed, I'm happy with 415 cc's and am happy I didn't go any bigger. I probably could've gone with 385 and be just as happy. Here's some updated pics. One before and the rest are most recent.
