The only before photos I have of are with clothes on so it's hard to really see the difference ... Which I can post some if you are looking for some form of a before! I wish I would have taken photos prior to surgery though :(

That's ok. My surgery is in 2 days (Friday) so I'm pretty much set. I'll be doing 350cc and I'm 5'6" 115lbs. Hopefully mine look as great as yours!

I just read and saw what you have!! That's what I want. My surgery is in 2 weeks. Do you have a pre op picture? I love your look!! I'm 6ft though. I wonder if I'll be a C. Thats what I'm aiming for. I'm currently a 34AA

The only photos I have from before are with clothes, so it's hard to tell what I had (which was literally almost nothing lol). I can say though, that I started out not even being able to fill out an A cup and now I'm a full C / small D! I would think 400ccs would get you a full C, but everyone is different so it's hard to say for sure. I hope your surgery goes perfect and you get the look you're going for! :)

AvaMarie93, how long did your swelling last for? And approximately how long did you regret feeling like you went too big? That is my biggest fear going into surgery getting 400s that I'm going to come out regretting the size I got because of the swelling etc. I think it might ease my mind to hear your emotional thought process immediately following surgery. Your results at five months post op are amazing and I hope to look half as good as you do with my augmentation. I'm debating between 375 to 425 Mentor high-profile sub muscular silicone implants. I'm currently in a 34 AA bra or even smaller.

The first couple of days were mentally difficult for me. One day I loved them, the next day they were too big, then too small, it was a roller coaster ride of emotions for me lol. Thank God after everything has settled I could not be any happier! My swelling took at least 2 months to completly settle. Immediately after surgery I felt happy with my size decision, but I also was so swollen it was hard to tell what they looked like. About three or four days later I remember looking at myself in the mirror thinking "what in the world have I done to myself?!?! I look sooo fake and I've ruined my body." But when you go from barely an A cup your entire life to a C/D cup within a few hours, your chest just feels extremely tight and it was making me feel like I was a lot bigger than I actualiy was. I remember right before surgery I was afraid 400ccs were going to be too big for me and I told my doctor I wanted 325CCs instead. He told me that when you're stuck between two sizes, it's usually best to go with the larger choice. I'm glad he told me that and I'm even more glad I took his advice, so 400ccs it was! Sorry for such a late response! I'm happy to help in anyway! I hope everything turns out PERFECT for you! When is your surguery scheduled for??

I love this comment! I'm starting from a 34AA too so hearing how you coped with going bigger is a great insight to how I may feel afterwards. Thank you for your honesty :)

Thank you!! I'm glad I could help. I was stuck between 350-400ccs. I thought 400ccs would look HUGE on me, but I'm so glad I went with the larger size! Good luck to you!!! :)
