225cc teardrop implants BA

Two days before surgery!! I’m 5ft 1, weight 51kg and have a 26-28 inch back which results in a 30B bra. I remember when I first started this journey and I was adamant I was having the smallest possible breast implants. I’d urge anyone reading this that assumes that 225cc is “too big” to reconsider. Personally for me, the rice test was very inaccurate and 225g rice tests seemed ridiculous on my body. However, I was very lucky to meet a surgeon who actually STOCKED small sizers and when trying on 225cc as a proper sizer, they really suited my body.
From research, I think there are more options of sizes in round implants but I’m severely lacking in body fat up top and wanted teardrops. When I saw the difference between a 195cc and a 225cc sizer, there was no doubt in my mind that 225cc was the way to go.
I’ve seen girls with 180cc rounds and they look amazing and not too big so it appears (in my opinion) that rounds look bigger than teardrops as the 195cc teardrops wouldn’t have been worth the surgery.
I’m still incredibly worried that the 225cc will be way too big but something is better than the nothing I have at the moment.
The main reason for starting this blog is because there isn’t much AT ALL out there for girls who want to read about/see examples of smaller implants. I was determined I wanted much smaller than I’m going so join me and see!

Operation done!! My left boob is awesome. My right boob is 10/10 with pain even with morphine and codeine. So strange. As the one boob was hurting so much more than the left, the nurse wanted to check it so I managed to grab a quick picture whilst I was undressed. Obviously just swollen and definitely need to drop but I’m a patient person and that will take weeks/months. Hope you like!! 225cc teardrop over the muscle. According to my surgeon, the nurses said they were jealous when he was doing his final checks so I must look pretty good! What an amazing surgeon!

It’s been a very tough journey so I wanted to use this space to be honest with people about how tough BA can be. I recently left some comments on MYA Space and was told not to be negative on the forums by admin staff so I feel a lot of people go into this thinking everything will be great! This is not the case.
Day 1 post op: I ended up with something really rare called Neurapaxia which meant my nerves were severely damaged in my right breast. This was so painful I couldn’t breathe. I think hospital staff thought I was being a baby about the pain and it wasn’t until the consultant saw me the next morning that we realised something was severely wrong. I was then heavily sick from the painkillers which caused a haematoma in my right breast too and I was told I might need to go back down for surgery. Cue huge pain attack. I was finally discharged once I was put on the right painkillers and it was established there was no longer any bleeding. However, I decided to put a hot water bottle on my breast for the pain and burnt it!!!! Please don’t do this ladies. I was just so desperate I didn’t know what else to do - 5 weeks post op and I’ve still got scabs and blisters from this.
The neurapaxia is slowly going away. BUT the tightness, the pain, the inability to sleep properly, the inability to move your arms (regardless of neurapaxia) is something which is never discussed. I still have pain 5 weeks post op, can’t sleep properly, they’re sore all the time and hard so buying clothes isn’t easy.
I’d also recommend having the surgery done in winter due to the Macom bra. Now the weather is getting better, I could do without wearing it but they’re sore if you go without it for longer than an hour - I’m not used to the “weight” on my chest.
The size and shape are incredible. My surgeon is amazing and I’d never fail to recommend him - I’ve also had a rhinoplasty with him and he’s jut amazing. BUT please don’t take BA lightly, it’s a painful, life changing procedure which takes a long time to heal. Once you start talking to girls who are also post op, you realise you’re not alone with the pain and the inability to move and the sleeplessness and the tightness. It’s a big op. Make sure you’re prepared!!
I also have pics of my scars and blisters and other such healing pics before 5 weeks if anyone wants to DM to see them. I just haven’t been able to write till now as it’s been such a long, hard journey that I didn’t want to comment until I was feeling better.
