37 yo, nursed 3 kids, deflated breasts. 130 lbs 5ft7. Had 275cc saline Mentor implants dual plane to restore fullness

Hi! I know saline feels harder than silicone but I was terrified of silicone for the same reasons as you. If saline ruptures it is safer and it gets reabsorbed into your body. The implants are not visible and I don't notice any rippling. Another benefit of saline is a smaller scar because they blow them up via a tube inside you vs stuff the already full silicone inside a bigger opening. I will try to take a selfie boob squishy video for you this week. Don't be nervous you will do amazing!!

Hey @Angela_1990 just a tad bit of info, all implants including saline are made with silicone. All implant shells are made w/silicone so either way you have silicone in you. I know more ladies that got sick from saline oppose to silicone. Some found mold and mysterious white stuff floating in their saline implants upon removal. I initially was going to do saline but I was afraid if one somehow deflated, I'd go around with one boob. Another point I didn't know until after I got implants was "BII - breast implant illness". I always thought it was in their head until I started experiencing symptoms (review posted). I was 21 mpo when I started noticing issues (hair loss, swollen lymph nodes, increase joint inflammation amongst others). However I do not plan on removing unless I become completely debilitated. I am completely in love with my Mentor MemoryGel implants. They feel much more natural than saline which can feel hard. I hope these few things help you out. Also get whatever you want, don't let the PS sway you because their more comfortable doing one over the other. Good luck. I hope you post a review about your experience. :-)

I don't think they are harder than before kids. Possibly a tad. You just feel "fuller". The beginning of the recovery if feels like your engorged with milk and your milk is coming in. I'm able to sleep on my stomach now and I don't notice them being hard. They are firm and perky like before kids. My husband loves them too and said I rewound the biological clock!! Do the saline, you won't be worried running around about a silent rupture etc. you'll feel more confident. I am a very active mama of 3. Back to doing dancing, hip hop, ballet, hiking etc. they don't get in the way. I am glad I went with 275cc. I was going to go bigger but glad I stopped myself. Once you wear a bra and clothes they fill out my tops. I just wanted to look like I did when I was full of milk while breastfeeding, not bigger. Pre surgery I was about a 34B now I am a 34DD at VS but going to Nordstrom today to get remeasured for some of their bras

Oh thank you so much! I hope my review was helpful

I took about 4 weeks off. I work part time and make my own schedule so we able to without having to put in for any medical leaves etc. nobody knew I had them done and you can't tell in scrubs etc. I obeyed the no heavy lifting rule x 6 weeks

25cc isn't a big difference. But I am happy I didn't go bigger. When you put a bra on and clothes. They definitely fill out tops more etc. if you read my previous thoughts I was scared of looking top heavy.

Yes! My right was always higher and now they are pretty much at the same level. Just takes patience. I was worried about a revision too. Hang in there !

I noticed them about 2 months post op, but I don't see any veins on the nipples now. Sometimes depending what bra I wear it presses them Into an awkward spot. Love them naked haha. I will keep updating my journey. Victoria Secret Reopened but dressing rooms closed and they can't measure you Dang it
