Hi everyone, I decided to write a review and document my breast augmentation journey for those who are interested in having breast implants in the future or are just curious about what size 255cc implants would look like on them.
I had my ready augmentation on January 27, 2021, during COVID with Dr. Larry Nichter in Newport Beach. I chose Dr. Nichter while looking through RealSelf and found that he had the most experience out of all the surgeons in my area and he had a lot of positive reviews.
My goal initially was to have implants that looked natural and fit my body proportions. I was debating between 215-255cc and ultimately let my surgeon chose what looked best on me and what looked most like the picture instead.

Went to see Dr. Nichter for a post op checkup. He said everything is healing perfectly and that my implants are already dropped and now I have to wait for the fluffing to happen. Overall I felt little to no pain and I stopped all of my medication on day 3. I did not even have to use my prescribed painkillers and just used Tylenol to manage the little pain I had. I can do almost everything by myself without assistance. The doctor told me that I can sleep however way I want if I feel comfortable to and I can go without a sports bra.
Overall I just feel some tightness and some numbness near the incision site. My breasts feels firm but it should soften up soon. My nipples are half sensitive and half numb which is kind of weird but the doctor says that it’s completely normal and that feeling should return in the following months.

We are very grateful that you took the time to write about your breast augmentation experience. As you know from doing your own research, hearing from actual patients is very helpful to others when deciding whether or not to have surgery and which surgeon is right for them. As for being just 6 days post-op. wow you look great!

Thank you for posting about your experience! I’m thinking about going with 255cc or 235cc sientra moderate plus implants in early April. We have a similar body type, so your post helps a ton! I just have some questions if you don’t mind answering them: Do you know what bra size you are now? Do you feel fully healed now?

Hi! I was debating on whether I should go 235 or 255cc and ultimately I let my surgeon choose for me based on my wish pics. To be honest there's not a big difference between the two but in my opinion you should just size a little because you will get boob greed. I am currently a 32C at Victoria secret. I can fit both a 34B and a 32D depending on how padded the bra is. Overall I'd say that I am a small C. Hope this helps!

I forgot to add that I felt fully healed by the end of week one. But I had to take it easy on lifting things til week 3.

Thank you so much for responding!! This really helps a ton. I’m planning to just take 1 week off from work right now. Do you have all feeling back now? I think in the previous post you mentioned that you were experiencing some numbness. If you can provide any information you think is useful in general, I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks again!

Happy to help! In regards to breasts and nipples feeling numb, I am slowly gaining back some feeling in the surrounding areas of my breasts and my nipples are currently sensitive but not numb anymore. You may feel some numbness after surgery but according to my doctor it takes upwards to a year for feeling to fully return. My advice for pre surgery would be to take arnica supplements for bruising and practice sleeping on your back until surgery. I think the hardest part of recovery for me would be sleeping elevated. Good luck with your surgery!

Your BA has amazing results! I just did 280cc sientra and wishing I went down to 250-260. I don’t know if it would make that big of a difference but I just feel huge with my small frame 5’3 106lbs! Still swollen at 10 days post op so hoping they drop and become more natural looking... I wish I had seen yours before!

20cc isn't that big of a difference if you really look at it. I believe 20cc is about the size of two table spoons. I am sorry that you are wishing you went a little smaller. I'm sure you'll grow to love it more when you are fully healed. At the two month mark my breasts have dropped and the swelling has gone down and everyone thinks they're natural!

They look amazing!!! I'm getting 250cc mod plus and I am so worried Its going to look to big for my frame. I'm very small. Like 95lbs. Always have been. The day I gave birth I was full term and 135lbs. My mom is around 110 120 so I'm not gonna grow anymore lol I'll be 26 on April 22nd and thats also the date for my BA! SO EXCITED!!! could you post some more pictures? And are the mentor silicone gel?

250cc is not big at all and I think it fits my slim Asian frame. If you are starting off with an A cup like me then you will not be any bigger than my post op size. I will post some pics of me in bralettes and bikinis for reference. Also I got sientra mod plus silicon gummy bear gel.
