Asked By:mashabonita in 19010 - Bryn Mawr, PA

Hi, I got my surgery 3 days ago. I'm 5'6 and 120 lbs. My cup size was A. I had transaxillary BA w/silicone 325 cc. I'm swollen now but I already see that my breast doesnt look big. I am aftaid that after swelling is gone, my breast will fit in my old bras. Does implant can get bigger after placement? I was hoping for size C. For now I just feel all the money and stress were for nothing. Disappointed.
