35yo 5’5” 130lbs Breast Aug; 385cc/415cc HP under the muscle

I called the office and scheduled a surgery date, before my consultation and before my pre-op were even scheduled; put down the deposits and everything! They were like ooookay. I’d been contemplating and researching for YEARS! Talking to all my friends, asking questions on social media, and doing my due diligence on choice of surgeon. I competed in body building for many years, and originally thought I wanted implants to help me in the sport. Turned out, I never needed them to do well, and figured it was for the best NOT to make such a permanent change to my body in state that wasn’t sustainable. Three years later, I felt my body was finally back in homeostasis, and when I knew I STILL wanted boobs, it was time to schedule! I called Dr. Browns office mid February, they were able to schedule me April 5th for surgery and then combined my consultation/pre-op appt on March 18th. It all happened SO fast, but I’m that kinda gal. I do my research and GO! I’m writing this post op day one, and so far, am feeling great! It’s not that I couldn’t use it, but haven’t needed help for anything as of yet. Haven’t needed pain killers, but have been staying on top of the muscle relaxers and am feeling surprisingly mobile. Staying put in my post-op bra as instructed, feeling some crackles in my ribs and chest, no major bloating (yet) and nothing real crazy to note. Will try to post updates as anything changes! Sitting real high and tight for now, so I’m sure the changes in shape will be the most notable thing to update. Super, super happy so far, and highly recommend Dr. Brown! Not only is he an awesome surgeon, but he truly exemplifies the health and wellness lifestyle that I feel EVERY medical provider should preach. ESP a cosmetic surgeon. Whether you’re able to get in with him or not (logistically) he’s definitely worth a follow on social media outlets if you’re contemplating any kind of cosmetic procedure.

Feeling tight, but no need for pain meds and stopped the muscle relaxers 36 hours post surgery. Implants are still very high and tight, and the belly is definitely feeling the bloat! Super happy so far and can’t wait to watch them take shape!

No news is good news! Really nothing crazy or exciting to report. I can’t tell if they’re starting drop, or if the swelling is just going away, but they’re definitely changing every day :) Tried on most of my swimsuits and a bunch of sports bras and was pleasantly surprised everything still pretty much fit—obv just a different look than before. I’ve never wanted huge boobs, just some boobs haha. To match the rest of my frame and I really think my surgeon nailed it with sizes he picked in the OR. The purple things in the last photo, sticking out of my PO bra, are nursing ice packs. I got them for $9 on Amazon and they’ve been perfect because they easily cleanable and reusable! Still icing prob 2-3 times a day. Feeling great so far and back to work tomorrow!
