345 cc soft touch

I’m a 32 yo mother of 2. I’ve always had a smaller chest and wanted to fill out a bra better. Before surgery I was a 32B. Afterwards I fit into a 34D. I went ahead and scheduled a consultation with the doctor I found near me. Afterwards I went ahead and scheduled my surgery for June 11th! It’s been almost 4 months since my surgery and I’m honestly not too sure how I feel about the whole experience. I’m satisfied but I didn’t get what I wanted. The experience wasn’t bad. The pain wasn’t bad. I just feel like I spent so much on something and didn’t get what I paid for. I initially decided in my consultation I was getting 397 cc gummy bear “soft touch” implants. My doctor mentioned I had a small frame and narrow chest and that he might not be able to fit the size I wanted. I understood and he told me we’d do sizers while I was under anesthesia and he’d decide what was best. Yes, I agreed he knew best. But I can’t help but feel a little upset about it anyway. Perhaps I should’ve gone somewhere else. For my surgery we went through the areola because that was the only way he did it. I have a lot of scar tissue underneath both nipples where it feels hard. My right nipple has no feeling. The doctor I would say was very professional and kind. However the office staff wasn’t really the same. Nobody called to check on me and I haven’t even heard from them since my post surgery follow up appointment. I did have to make an appointment because I had an issue in my right breast where it became hard to the touch and was in pain about 1 week post op. I was prescribed another round of antibiotics for a week and my boob felt much better and stopped aching. Since then I’ve had no issues with that boob. My left breast was high in my collarbone since I got my surgery. It has yet to fall into place. If I wear a bra i can actually feel the implant move into my cleavage. Such a weird feeling. Also when I lay down it feels tight and stiff on the left side. My boobs are actually both soft and don’t hurt at all. But the bra with the left boob and the laying down is very strange just in that one side. So I ended up waking up from surgery and asking “did they fit” they ended up putting 345cc. I was so disappointed. I want to get them re done but for the price I paid and my current finances I just can’t do it. Very frustrating.

Also for reference I am 5’2 and weigh 130.

I know the feeling, I had 350cc but wanted bigger, but due to my frame size, band width and not a lot of pinch up top couldn’t go bigger. I’m hoping after a couple off years I might be able too if funds allow it.

I’m hoping after having these a few years I’ll have stretchier skin so I can go bigger lol. What size were you before?
October 7, 2021
I was a 32b before but didn’t fill the cup up top. What size where you? Yeah I’m hoping the same too
October 7, 2021
Same exact thing for me! Same size too. I hated having to pull my boob up in a push up bra and eventually it would fall back into its cozy position lol. I think in a few years we’ll be ready for bigger and better! You’re like my booby twin
October 7, 2021
Haha booby twin, not now though. Totally know what you mean always tried to scoop them up in a padded push up for them to be like nope it’s not happening!!! Fingers crossed we can both go bigger in a few years.

Regarding your higher breast; have you inquired to see if you have possible capsule contracture? If caught early, CC isn't a real issue, but it will take medication to help break up the scare tissue

I had no idea there was options available if you did have it. I’ll have to schedule an appointment with the surgeon and see what he says. It’s just so confusing because it’s really soft but it just won’t drop!

I’m wearing a super thin bra with zero padding. Only underwire. Notice how different my left boob looks compared to the right. My scars are so bad! I feel like my nipples look wonky and deformed. Any recommendations for scars? I use mederma and bio oil. :(

Push up bra 34D

smfg1813
They look better in a bra lol. They look big when I wear a push-up bra but (I think) they’re average looking. Small even. Idk I hope these help if anyone was recommending getting around 345cc. Gummy bear “soft touch” implants.
