8 months post-op
WORTH IT$8,150
I had another follow-up with Dr. Kim. I'm a little over 8 months post-op. I have the slightest asymmetry, the left breast has dropped a tiny bit more. I hardly notice it, but Dr. Kim is a perfectionist and pointed it out. We agreed it's probably because I'm a side-sleeper. So to fix it, I just need to switch sides. Besides that, everything is going great! I love them and I think they are just perfect for me! Before I hated trying on bathing suit because I never filled out the tops, now every suit I try on, I fall in love! (I've already bought two suits for a vacation in Palm Springs=) )
I've resumed all more normal activities like running, cycling, and lifting weights. (I ran a half marathon 5 months after surgery, no problem). Dr. Kim said I can do push-ups and other chest exercises, but my chest muscles are pretty weak and I'm still not comfortable doing push-ups, I feel like the implants move and my muscle really stretch. Otherwise, I'm totally satisfied!

4 months post-op: 339cc Mod+ Silicone implants
I haven't posted an update in a while, because I feel great and feel totally normal! Its been 4 months since my surgery and my breast just look and feel more natural and softer and softer over time. I love them and I love them on my body! I scar pretty easy, so my scars are really pink still. But I'll see what Dr. Kim says when I see him next week at another follow-up.

You look great! We're similar, I got mine right after I got engaged too! I had plans to have them done before we got engaged, but it was crunch time after it actually happened!

Love your boobs, after I accidentally did it too big, now I'm just drooling over smaller boobs.

2 months + Post-Op
I'm a little over 2 months post-op. I had to cancel my appointment with Dr. Kim today due to a work conflict and being 4 hours away. Also I feel like I really didn't need to see him. Not much has changed since my last appointment. I called his office and they were okay with my cancellation. Instead, I emailed him some pictures and an update on how I was doing.
I feel totally normal! No pain at all. I have returned to my normal exercise routine: running, lifting weights, and kickboxing (still no chest exercises). My breasts look and feel better and better over time. They continue to feel softer and softer and continue to drop. I fit into a 32C normal VS bra and a 32D strapless VS bra. I am still doing a lot of massaging (very important!). I also still put on the Bio-corneum scar cream twice a day and take 1000mg of Vitamin E once a day.
I'm still very happy with my whole experience! Now I love wearing bathing suits! This summer has been so fun! I plan to see Dr. Kim in another 2 months. :)

You look awesome! I am a small 34A and getting 350 also. Reading your story just settled some nerves because I would be very happy if I had similar results. I also currently wear a padded bra under my sports bra...not for long!

Aw thanks! I'm such a perfectionist and was sooo worried about the size and end result! I couldn't be happier!... I love just wearing a sport bra and tank top to the gym and having perfect cleavage! It's the best!

Looks great! I'm your size and this really has helped me make a decision. Thanks so much for sharing!
September 26, 2014
That's awesome!! I had such a hard time deciding on a size, not too big and not too small. Stick to what YOU want!
August 23, 2014
Thank you so much for your post! I am also getting 339 ccs. I'm looking forward to it!
September 26, 2014
You're welcome! Good luck! I could have gone up to 371cc (the dr tried that size on me in surgery, and he kept encouraging me to go bigger). But I stuck to my wishes and wanted a modest size and I love them! I have a petite bone structure and didn't want a TOO BIG or FAKE look :)
