Hi guys, today is post op day 17 and I'm feeling alright. I am supposed to return back to work today but I'm too afraid to so, I called in sick today and start tomorrow instead.
My breasts are healing nicely, but I'm starting to worry all the time, and it's not good :(
They change everyday and they are changing in their own way and time, and so I kind of freak out for every little thing.. not good :(
I'm back home, I returned a few days ago, and I've had still alot of contact with my contact person Grace, who works there. And she is the sweetest person ever, The staff and especially her have helped me with every little thing, and comforted me with all my annoying questions.
I think that because I need to massage all the time, I keep getting reminded of them, and then I start looking and examining how they are healing, instead of just living my life and not paying to much attention to them.
So I'm just going to try to stop doing that, and try to just live my life and still be careful of course.
Other than that, I'm massaging my breasts just like they informed, 3 times a day and they are dropping and getting more fluffy everyday.
My left has dropped a lot more than my right, and it's a little softer so I'm massaging my right a little more, to help it drop.
I got a rash from the bandaid I was using for by belly, so right now it shows on my stomach and I'm justing putting some lotion on to help it disappear, but it's taking some time.
I have full sensation in by breasts, if not more and sometimes it hurts so much, when it's cold outside and my nipples gets so stiff haha
I attached photos to you guys from post op day 16! :)

I am also considering travelling to the U.S to get my surgery. How long did you stay in L.A after surgery before you travelled back home? Did you go to consultations with other doctors or had you decided that Dr Kim would be your doctor while you were still in your country? Did you hire a caretaker in L.A to help you with the recovery?

They're AMAZING! You should be incredibly happy. This is exactly why I am also going to Dr. Kim - June 6th! Did you say you got moderate profile or mod+?

Hi guys

today is post op day 6! And I feel great, my surgery didn't hurt and I've been feeling great since day 3.. I have been massaging my breasts since day 3 and I feel that they already feel very soft and squishy :) I am reeeeally satisfied with the look and feel of them so far, I just hope that they are going to go down a little bit in size, and i know they will so I'm just happy until then..
I feel that they are a little bit too big for me right now, so we'll see how they turn out :)
Second post op appointment in two days, I'll let u know how it went! xx

Omg they are so lovely. I'm so glad I made the decision of doing them with him. I'm having my incision done through the belly button, did you have a sore stomach or how did you feel afterwards?
March 14, 2014
thank you! :) yeey! when is your surgery? Yes it was sore a little bit, and I had bruises and it felt kind of wierd, don't know how to explain it but you could feel that something was inside your stomach! But it wasn't bad at all!

My surgery date is the 27 of March. I'm super excited. I'm nervous of the anesthesia but it sttill hasn't hit me yet that I'll soon be getting my surgery.
March 24, 2014
How exciting! hope you have a great experience! Don't be nervous about that, it's fine, I had the best laugh ever before I fell asleep, just be happy before you go in and you'll laugh too :)
Are you going to put up a review? would love to see your transformation :)

sorry for not updating my profile after surgery but I have had a lot on my mind.
So today is post op day 3 I believe, if I'm counting right? I had surgery friday morning and everything went great.
I wasn't that nervous going in to surgery, not as much as I thought I would so that was a relief and then before I knew it I woke up ready to go.
I LOVE the staff, they are unbelievable! they are so helpful with everything and they take care of your every need.
and Dr Kim is great, after reading a lot of what people said about him I went in to consultation and surgery thinking that he was going to be really rude. Complete nonsense! He was the opposite of that, he was so kind and laughed at my poor jokes, and he really listened to what I wanted, and gave me the information I needed.
I had complete confidence in him going in to surgery so he could pick size and shape, because he knows best!
So he chose 295 and 320 cc moderate profile and so far they look great!
I haven't taken any good pictures just because it's difficult for me to stretch my arms, but I'll try to give you better pictures tomorrow!
Other than that, I don't know what to say, I have so much to tell about these past three days but I'm so tired that just want to finish this review right now haha, sorry
Have a great day!

Sadly, I have to get my hip surgery done first and wait till that's all healed up. Can't wait to get my boobies, hopefully early next year.
March 14, 2014
ok! hope you feel better now, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you'll have it as soon as possible! :)
Wow. that is 2 and a half weeks post op? They look amazing! What are you worried about? Those are some of the best boobs I have seen on here so early on!!
No-don't! Dr. Kim is one of the best breast surgeons in the country, probably the world. Wait till six months from now- omg, you are going to be one of the girls everyone envies because she looks like she was born with perfect, big boobs! I'm really starting to wonder if I should go to Dr. K instead even though it will cost me close to 4k more. He does really great work! You look perfect. :-)
