5'1 Petite Breast Augmentation Review

Hi everyone!
So to begin I am a very petite girl. I'm about 5'1 1/2 (had to include the 1/2) and fluctuate weight from like 96 lbs - 100 lbs at most. My bra size is around an A cup but as of lately they kind of have been enlarging to a B cup maybe?
So my surgery is scheduled for this Friday (06/19/20) at 8 am PST and I am legit freaking out! I'm an anxious person and I keep thinking I chose too big of a size for my body frame.
I'm going with 325 CC high profile, silicone, under the muscle, boob crease incision. I went in telling my doctor I DO NOT want big boobs. I just want FULL boobs that fit my frame and get me to a nice C cup. Obviously I tried the sizes and I was debating between 300 cc and 325 and I saw so many people on here saying 25cc aren't that big of a difference and you end up losing a little bit of your CC under the muscle so I decided to go up a taaaad but I keep looking up girls with similar stats to me & their journeys and they all usually go with like 275 and it gets them to a D or DD cup and I'm legit scared af :( I don't want to look dumb!!! Anyone have similar stat journeys to share with me?!
I also keep seeing people say their doctor switches their size (to usually something bigger) the day of but I want to ask my doctor to size me down the day of but the office told me they don't keep like spare implants at the operation place?! And if i want to change my size i need to reschedule? Why do so many other girls surgeons seem to keep extras?! Ughhhhh. I'm just so nervous of them being TOO big. Too small I wouldn't even mind but it being too big on my petite frame is what's keeping me up.

So I’m about 5 hours post op currently and my pain level is about a 4/10. I’ve only take half a norco and have been walking around the living room for the past 25 minutes. I’m able to use the restroom by myself which is a good sign to me! I’m scared that tomorrow my pain will be worse for some reason.
I know I said I was nervous about sizing but I looked and they don’t look that big despite the swelling (to me) still have ways to go of course because I’m not even 24 hours post op. Opinions on them? Also my surgeon didn’t put me in a surgical bra after.. is this normal? Should I put it on?
Again my implants are 325cc, silicone, high profile, and incision in the breast fold. Prior I was probably an A cup? One boob was slightly smaller than the other but my doctor said it wasn’t a big enough difference to do different CCs. I’ll upload pictures tomorrow at one day post op.

My surgeon was adamant about me staying in the post-surgery bra for 6 weeks, he talked to my husband right after my surgery and said to make sure I keep it on because I'm so small and they need to stay in place; he also said to not massage at all because it loosens the pocket and he doesn't want me to cause them to bottom out/double bubble - BUT it's different for different people because it depends on the surgeons methods during surgery. For me, I couldn't imagine not wearing the bra for the first 5 weeks because it's so uncomfortable when I take it off, like they're going to fall LOL.
Also I wanted to say, for a while one of mine seemed more in my armpit, one seemed bigger, one hurt more, etc and it’s all normal and will even out so don’t let it freak you out because it bothered me. The swelling is crazy and I didn’t want to look at them for weeks but it’s all worth it, when they start getting soft it gets exciting again haha

I've watched so many YouTube videos and all the girls said they wore it immediately after so i think I'm going to start wearing it starting tomorrow because they have so much pressure towards the bottom of them :( thank you so much for you advice!

The surgery looks successful from the images you shared. I am curious if your pain rose from the 4/10 you mentioned experiencing on day one or if things remained about the same. I am helping a friend research and what I heard was that you didn't want to overexert and let your body heal. I am interested in your recovery because you seem to be getting back into the swing of things remarkably fast compared to others.
Thanks much,

Hi there!
My pain definitely didn't rise from a 4 at all. It decreased to about a 2 by day 3 which was this past Monday (06/22). I mainly felt discomfort but no pain if that makes sense? By Tuesday I was showering myself & washed my own hair. It probably wasn't the most thorough shower but I managed lol! Today I'm officially one day post op and can fully lift my arms above my head comfortably but I was already able to do that by about Wednesday as well. I'm so glad I'm having a speedy recovery because my Bestfriend got hers done a month ago and she was the opposite of me but she went 425cc so I'm thinking how big you go & your frame size makes all the difference. I would say my biggest complaint as of right now is I'm still not sleeping flat on my back or side but that's pretty normal. also sometimes my nipples get a little tingly lol

4 days post
No more pain & swelling it dropping!
Charming334556June 24, 2020
I’m officially 4 days post op and now feel they look decent enough to post pictures of. Day 0, 1, & 2 were not the prettiest sight of them so I didn’t want to post
Now on day 3/4 they’re starting to look less swollen but of course still a long way to go in the dropping process. I can’t wait for them to be closer together and drop in the natural crease to hide the scars. My incisions are smaller than I anticipated which I’m happy about!
Overall I’m so happy with my recovery, surgeon, and size! (325 cc, HP, under) By day 2 I was able to do a lot on my own. It was Father’s Day on post op day 2 so I went to visit my dad and of course took it lightly and just sat around. I haven’t been needing many pain meds except when I sleep just to ensure I get a goodnight rest. Today (post op day 4) i was able to shower myself and even wash my own hair!

I’m having my surgery Monday! I’m 5’2 and about 112-115 lbs. My doctor had told me 330ccs and 345 ccs would be perfect for me. Different sizes to make them even. But I’m also afraid of looking dumb and too “top heavy” I want fuller boobies but still want them to be very natural and sit pretty. Please keep updated! I feel like we’re about the same
June 25, 2020
Honestly I was so scared I was going to big and even almost changed my size a week before surgery but my surgeon & everyone there reassured me it wasn't going to be too big. Since I was also going for a natural / full look they said this would be the perfect size and it honestly really is! I could have going probably a little bit bigger and still been okay because I was also too scared of looking too top heavy. I'll post some updated pictures right now for you to see & some before as well
June 25, 2020
Thank you! They look great! It makes me so excited. I’m going in tomorrow to meet with the nurse practitioner and go over sizing one last time. I’m about a small b right now, so not too bad. But I definitely don’t have any side boob how you did! They’re just perky lol. I’m trying to think of all my questions right now to ask for tomorrow! But again thank you!
June 26, 2020
Yours look good! I’m 5’1 1/2 and weigh around 115/118. And I got 415cc I’m on week 3 you will see a lot of changes over the next days, weeks and months!
July 2, 2020
Really? That's reassuring to know... I keep feeling like now almost 2 weeks post op this is basically my final result?!
July 2, 2020
Thanks, so you would recommend this medical group?

Thank you for your help. I'm a man and would like b cups. Or c. Just so they bounce. Maybe you can help?
