Hello, I'm 31, 145, 5,2. After 2 kids decision was made:))) so far I'm 1 week post op, got 400CC witch looks perfectly proportional ( even tho I wanted to go for 350CC, but my doctor explains me everything perfectly).
Very happy with a result!!! Don't have pic before, but it was a huge difference!)

Thank you girls!!! Recovery is going smooth, I had pain for the first 2 days, but from the day 3 I never even took a Tylenol. Breast did't hurt at all, since I had lipo almost everywhere - that was most painfully. So far, on day 4 I went shopping:)))) on day 5 - mani and pedi, on day 6, I went on the beach ( but was hiding by the palm tree:))))))) But, ill tell you - if u r kid of person who always see a glass half empty .... You will need to get ready for a longer recovery . I'm just very positive person with 2 kinds, so I don't have time to " feel sore, in pain, dizzy, shmizzzy, lol) So good luck for everybody!!! For now, the only thing that really bothers me a lot- that I need to wear confession suit for 6 weeks:((( and can't really go swim and tan.... I live in Siberia, Russia, and need to go back on May 25.... This is only thing so far!!! Love my doctor and his girls. Woooooo hoooooo!!!!

Congratulations! You look great! Did you have anyone to help you the first few days of recovery? I can't believe you went shopping on Day 4 post op...that's amazing! Just curious why you chose to do your procedure in Florida? Did you tell your friends and family in Siberia why you were going to Florida? :) Thank you so much for sharing your story on RealSelf!

Hello BethH!!! Thank you for interesting! I didn't pick Florida on purpose, we just have a home here and coming here twice a year. What about doctor, I just made an appointment for Botox and after he got it done I asked him couple Q, I wanted to do a mommy makeover, but Dr S told me that if I want to have more kids- it's not the case ( and we do want to have a baby girl:))) so he gave me a brief consultation and I just felt that he's a right doctor, with sense of humor and realistic, very professional. So I scheduled a consultation 2 weeks after my Botox and he just went step by step, telling me what he can do, what he won't be able to do ( regarding lipo) and he suggest me an implant size right away ( 400cc), first I thought is too big, but he explained that if I'll go for 325 or 350 I might end up with pretty big distance btw my boobs since I have a pretty wide chest ... And now.... U can c on pic and 400cc is not too big, very good proportion and just a right size!!! For the first day my mom and my husband was helping me a lot. Next day after surgery a nurse came and checked everything and helped me to change my compression suit . Day 3 I got up from the bed by myself ( it was hard, since my back hurt, but I knew I have to do it:))) and that's it. Of course, as I said before, anyone will need help for the first days, but don't let your self regret what you did just because you r in pain. I have 2 kids... It was painful, but I will never regret, so here is the same... Good luck to every one and I will post new pic soon!!!

Thank you for your response! Glad to hear everything worked out perfectly for you. It's nice that you have a home in Florida that you visit every year so you can visit your PS for any other future procedures. :)
