His scarring however is so nice and neat. Very impressed with that three weeks post surgery.

Wish the swelling would hurry up. Starting to get worried he/I choose the wrong size implant.
I am getting a bit concerned about the size and style of implant chosen. I need to ask him what my BWD was. I am measuring 6 inches across which is 15ish cm?? I guess I am wide and that is why he choose that wide of an implant. I even asked and was hoping for high profile but he said no because of my BWD was already too wide it wouldn't look right.Let's hope the swelling goes way down. It has only been three weeks as of tomorrow so I am sure it's too early to tell the size and width.

I wouldn't worry too much about the sweeling..the size you have in Moderate Pluses have has a smaller base width than 15 cm. That is probably just swelling still hon. And your incisions look amazing!!
Happy new year;-)

You too babe. Not sure if you got Mentor..but if so..those mod pluses in your size have a 12.5 approx. diameter ..google mentor implant dimensions and click on Product Reference Guide. So DEFINITELY do NOT worry. Mine are 13.6 and 14 cm diameter implants..so you definitely must have residual swelling! !

Yes Mentor! I hope so! I have been so worried about the size. I do not want to put myself back in the position to need a lift again anytime soon. =( So painful and expensive.

Are you kidding? Your LIFE looks INCREDIBLE! !! I thought you were worried about the width;-)
NO worries for YOU at all then. You are in genius hands;)
With a lift...they tend to look wider and more "square" for.months. .and I don't see the square Ness at all.on you..they do look full..but trust...THAT will subside..you are so early..my entire STERNUM was swollen for a month after my full lift.
Hang tight baby girl.
Xoxo

I think the swelling is going down a bit. Starting to feel a little better and moving around a lot more. I can't wait to get back on that treadmill!

Hi, you're looking great ! I think your breast size suits you (body proportion).

Dr Kim's paperwork says no vitamin E for 14 days after surgery but he told me to start taking it at my one week checkup. Maybe he's looking for signs of bleeding or hematoma first before he gives the go ahead. My scarring looks so fine and precise I barely notice it when Iook at them. If you end up going with someone else I would wait the 14 days just in case.

Thanks for letting me know. I'm glad I asked you. Vitamins can have an adverse effect so I will wait 2 weeks. Im already booked in. I know I can change my mind at a cost but seeing Dr Kim is difficult, due to distance , time , recovery. And it would cost double with flights, accommodation. Im very confused but it's ok. I'll let you know the outcome. You're results are looking great. I've seen a YouTube video of Dr Kim's breast lift & the scares heal up surprisly well.
