BA 400/425cc (3 Weeks Post Op)

WORTH IT$5,799
So I live in NY and been searching for a good surgeon for my BA in NY and Miami for quite a while. A year has passed and I still didn’t find anyone who would satisfy my criteria. I was looking for somebody who:A) has great reputation and tons of reviewsB) has the same vision for aesthetics as I doC) provides comprehensive post care (more than one night in the hospital under supervision)D) assures satisfaction guaranteeSo I made a decision to fly to Ukraine and see their Top surgeon for my BA procedure. All the necessary tests and lab work was done at the clinic the day before surgery. The cost of the surgery was $5800; that included surgery, implants, medication, compression bra, 2 days stay at the clinic under professional supervision, VIP luxury room, private nurse and a chef who cooks you delicious meals at any time of the day or night.[Day of surgery]After consultation my surgeon and I decided to go with round high profile non-textured silicone implants placed under the muscle (425cc on the left and 400cc on the right since my breast were slightly different in size to start with). I’m 5’7” and 130lb. Bra size 32B. See before pic below for reference.The surgery went well, they used gas general anesthesia, and special medical glue instead of stitches for the wound to make the scar less visible. I woke up 15 min after the surgery was over, tired, but clearheaded, felt totally fine and no pain just yet. They escorted me to my room where I spent a couple of days recovering. The pain and soreness started in a few hours but medications were helping me cope with that.5 days post op still in pain, can’t move my arm much, and breasts were tight and looking slightly weird. Lost sensitivity and numbness in certain areas of one breast and hypersensitivity in another.12 days post op back to New York, feeling still a little sore but can already move my arm better. The swelling is going down and the breasts start looking a lot better.2 weeks - soreness is almost gone, still a lot of sensitivity in one breast. Random shooting pains here and there but nothing that lasts more than a few seconds.3 weeks Yay - still wearing my compression bra 24/7, feeling a lot better and very happy to see the early results in the mirror. The breasts look symmetrical and are already sitting in the right position which is very rare for such short recovery period. I can see how do bottom halves start to fill up and look more natural and feel a lot softer to touch.Still have 3 more weeks to go in a compression bra; which is so uncomfortable.The full recovery usually takes 6 months but you can already see the more/less final results in 2 months. I’ll keep you all posted once I hit my 2 month mark ;)

Congrats! My stats are almost exactly the same as yours-- and I'm getting 405cc except mine will be moderate profile bc my chest is wider. Can't wait to see your progress. They look great! My surgery is in 2 weeks!
