Best Thing I've Ever Done!

I'm a 28-year-old mother of two, both of which I breastfed for a short amount of time (no more than 3 months). I've been flat chested ever since puberty never hit as hard as my friends and classmates, and it was always something that made me super self conscious. I was a 32 or 34 A with gapping, but have never been measured. I was so self conscious that I've been stuffing in some form for most of my life (i.e. silicone inserts, extra padding, etc.). I've always wanted to get a BA since I started doing research on it at 15/16. I was finally in a financial position to do it and so I found a doctor very close to my home in Lake Mary, FL who was more than qualified. After going to my consultation and talking with Dr. Shoukas about my wants, getting my measurements taken, and trying on sizers, I booked my appointment the same day. I can't remember my exact BWD but can find out, but we decided on cohesive gel silicone, moderate profile, under the muscle, and no less than a 375cc but he would try to fit the largest size that would look natural. My goal was to look natural but still have a good amount of cc's, cleavage, overall fullness, and to even out my bottom heavy proportions. Also, I'm 5'5", athletic frame, and was roughly 140-145 at date of surgery. I went in on July 29, 2020 for my surgery and was surprisingly calm and excited to go through with it. I knocked out like a light and then woke up in recovery with tightness and pressure in my chest, but no real pain. Day 1 and 2 post-op were the worst for me because, according to my PS, I had a very thick pec muscles that could only fit 375cc because it was so tight (I work out and stay pretty active). I felt like I was stretched to the max. By post-op day 3 and on, I felt better every day, and by day 4 I had weaned off the narcotics and was only taking muscle relaxers and Tylenol. I HIGHLY recommend to start taking stool softeners days before surgery and then take them as often as you can after the surgery because I never had an issue going to the bathroom after I stopped the narcotics. Also drink tons of water! Dr. Shoukas did an amazing job and my incisions look practically healed from the start and had NO BRUISING. I'm now 3 weeks post-op and love my breasts more every day. I trusted Dr. Shoukas to use his expertise and give me what would fit me and he did perfectly! I can't wait to see my results up to 6 months and watch them drop and fluff more. My confidence has sky rocketed and this was worth every cent I paid. I would go through it all over and over if it meant getting the outcome I did.

Here are some additional post op photos. The white band I’m wearing is the compression band and my surgeons wants me to wear it until my 6 week post op appointment. Sorry for the turned photos. I’m not sure why that happened!
