No pain. Full movement. Incisions are a line only. Still a little firm but massage is working. Very even. Very natural looking which was what I asked for. Perfect size. I LOVE them.
Yayyyyyy ????
I think the bra cups are a size small but i bought them when my boobs were still high.

Feeling great, started my massages, virtually no pain in left breast, burning sensations and sharp pains in left but nothing unbearable. I am happy :)
HP is not that high - my nurse asked me what size and HP I got because she thought they were perfect on me and will pass as natural when they've dropped.

They look fantastic! I can see that they'll drop just that tiny bit and be perfectly natural. That's a great size too. You must be so thrilled! I hope I get as good of an outcome. I'm broad shouldered so I'll probably have to get a bit more cc to acomplish that size. Are u a C or D cup now? Congrats Hun!
December 4, 2014
Thanks! And I am so thrilled, I'm sureyou will get an amazing result. The incision is so neat, nothing but a line.
i haven't been sized yet because they are sitting too high. Mmaybe I should go and try some bras on. hahah
My sugreon said I'd probably be a C cup, they look like they'd be a c cup..

OMG you have BOOBS :D They look so good, you can tell after a few more weeks they will drop and look so natural! Yay!
December 4, 2014
I know! hahahah And there is virtually no pain anymore. just the random stab nut otherwise my chest feels normal!
December 5, 2014
Omg lucky you! I hope I have no pain as well...omg this time next week ill have boobs too :) Do you think you had no paid because you didnt go really big? Im planning on going back to work on the monday as I didnt get time off lol it seems crazy but im a receptionist so hopefully it wont be too bad! Also, i wanted to ask how it is sleeping? Did you find it easy to sleep sitting up lol...thanks :) xx
December 5, 2014
oh my! I am reallly excited for you! what look are you after ?
That might be the case actually, they are still tight sometimes. My max was 345ccso I went for 2 sizes below.
I think as a receptionist, I would have been able to go back to work (assuming you are sitting upright most of the time) but if tou are on pain killers , they might make you drowsy.
I can sleep anywhere so sleeping isn't much of a problem. I have an aching back from not being able to crack it lol. but to be honest, i think ive been sleeping at more of a 300degree angle.
I've been sleeping on a recliner and cheat. lol but i don't wake up in much pain :D
December 5, 2014
I don't know I'm wanting to be a D cup but I'll see what my max is when I go for my consult. But I will let u know. Hahah oh I dont have a recliner

Looking good already! Congratulations !! Please post some updated pics. How do you feel a month later?

Hey Abigail,
2 months post op and they are F@$*ing amazing. I love them. Theyare still firm but the massage is helping alot. They are not that big so if i wear a loose tshirt I can completely hide them which I love. I havent taken that any photos but ill post one up :)
January 26, 2015
They look great :) why do you think the Cosmetic Institute is able to charge less than other clinics? It's not because of their sub-standard materials or anything like that? Also can you tell me - was the pain bad post op? I worry a lot about the pain. I'm an A cup too... Asian lol so I feel your pain (before the op haha).
January 26, 2015
Hey ☺
They charge less because they have their own operating room, their own full time nurses and everything. 1000dollars goes to the surgeon and the remainder to TCI. Other surgeons hire hospital rooms and nurses and thats why the costs are higher.
January 26, 2015
The service quality is impeccable. I had a minor problem because my body was rejecting the stitches and was healing. I emailed TCI, they had a nurse on call and she responded to me immediately. This is was 10.30 at night.
I am 2 months post op and they look amazing! The incisions look great, just a line.
I havent had any complications thus far.
January 26, 2015
Post op pain was nothing. Seriously just tightness and dis comfort. Every now and then Id get sharp pains and a burning sensation but thats just nerves awakening again.
You do need to sleep at a 45degree angle for 3 weeks though, it helped me heaps with stiffness and swelling.
January 26, 2015
Oh thanks. :) So how bad was the pain post-op? I'm so scared when I look at the scars and some people say it's excruciating. Did you get them under or over the muscle?
January 26, 2015
oh sorry I didn't read this you did answer my question! Was this under or above the muscle?
January 26, 2015
Under the muscles. I know I read off putting reviews too but I experienced none of what i read. They look great under the muscle.
I went to the GP and had a nurse change a dressing for me. She used to work for a plastic surgeon and she even said, they looked amazing and natural. ☺
Have you booked?
January 26, 2015
Awesome. I sooo want to. Waiting for some money to come to me. No money now :) would be AMAZING to finally have breasts haha. Thanks so much for your review. It's so helpful. x
January 26, 2015
It is amazing. I totally recommend TCI. I was going to pay over 10k and I am sooooooooo happy I didnt.
Xx take carr

Hi Suz so after a few mths how do you feel about your decision? What do your breasts feel like - do they feel a natural part of you? I worry about the health risks like if they leak etc. I'd be curious to know what you think. :)
April 12, 2015
Hey Miffy!
I feel Freaking fantastic - one of the best decisions of my life.
They are soft and not too big, I feel so feminine.
They are a part of me - i dont feel like ive had implants.
No health risks thus far for me ! my recovery was so quick.
I am a fitness freak and train 5-6 times a week, and have been doing alot of core/upper body work. everything is fine!
My chest and arms are weak, so I am in Struggle town but it doesnt feel like anything foreign is there.
i can sleep on my belly, its just strange to have something there hahaha but no discomfort at all. :D
What are your thoughts on it for yourself ?
April 17, 2015
I am thinking about it still. Thanks for your thoughts! Am considering whether to do fat transfer to breasts or this. I know fat transfer is more expensive but it seems to me more natural than implants and removes the risk of leaking... Hmm
