I just had my surgery Friday night. I got 50 cc gummy bear implants under the muscle on each side. I was maybe a 34 a before hand and I literally look like a B right now. Will they get bigger? Or is this as good as it's going to get? They are still sitting high but will they really actually push through my muscle and get bigger. I told the Dr I wanted a D minimum and she assured me it would get me there maybe even a DR but they look tiny.
Answer: Why do my Breast Implants look so small? Thank you for the question.It is much too early to evaluate the results of surgery at this point. You should be aware that there are often “disappointments” with the results of breast augmentation (too big or too small) early after surgery; these disappointments often resolve as patients adjust to their new “body image”. Also, you will find that your breasts will change significantly over the course of the next few months.
Preoperatively,
I suggest to all my patients that they concentrate on achieving a certain “look”, not a specific cup size, with their breast augmentation surgery. In other words, my patients know not to base their communication and/or level of satisfaction with the results of surgery based on an arbitrary cup size that will vary from one bra store to another. Unfortunately, no plastic surgeon is able to accurately predict what cup size you will end up wearing after breast augmentation with a certain size implant. Again, in my opinion, it is best to set your goals and level of satisfaction with the results of surgery, on achieving a certain look/proportionality, not a specific cup size.After you have waited a few months to see the final results of surgery, don't be surprised if you are pleased with the results of surgery (regardless of cup size). If not, communicate your questions and concerns calmly with your plastic surgeon.I hope this helps.

Answer: Assessing the results The tendency for patients is to attempt to assess the results while they are healing. Allow youself time to heal which may take 6 months. At that time, you and your surgeon can assess to see if your results meet your goals and objectives.Moreover, check the size of the implants used. 50cc seem to be a typo.

Answer: Implants settle but the volume doesn't change much... it just shifts from being high to being lower. I assume 50 is a typo and if you had 500cc implant placed, you will be much larger and more than a 'B' cup. If you had an active role in choosing your implant, it should be very close to what you envisioned.

Answer: Breast augmentation early post-op I assume you did not mean 50 cc implants to get to a "D" cup , but you have to give it time for the swelling to subside int he chest and the implants to sit appropriately in the pocket.

Answer: Give it time You most likely had 500cc implants as 50cc implants are not made. There is only a certain amount of space to place and implant and looking at your pictures, I think you have a great result. Relax and recover and see what you look like in a few months. If you want to go bigger you can always do that at a later date.
