Good experience so far

Sharing my experience because these were super helpful when I was looking for a surgeon. I'm 5'8 and 134lbs. I was previously a 32B, I'm guessing I'll be around a 32D/DD when sized. I ended up with 345cc in my left and 365cc in my right. My rib cage is slightly uneven so we used different sizes to help fix some previous asymmetry. I had over the muscle subfascial placement. Both implants were high profile, soft touch (AKA cohesive silicone) natrelle. I'm only a week post op but I feel almost back to normal, aside from the incisions occasionally hurting when I first stand up in the morning. I think Dr. Nimtz did a great job. I chose him over several doctors that I consulted with in Louisville because he offered subfascial placement. His wife (she's the office manager I think) was super friendly and kind and gave me her phone number in case I have any questions or issues. On surgery day I had a great experience. They have an on site surgical center. I never had anesthesia before so I was very worried. The anesthetist was super nice and explained everything very well. Surgery day happened so quickly that before I knew it I was awake and the surgery was over. The pain after surgery lasted only a couple of days, and I regained full range of motion in my arms quickly. I was prescribed a nausea patch that I put on before surgery, antibiotics for after surgery, and both painkillers and nausea medicine but I barely needed those. I am also taking singulair for capsular contracture prevention. I am attaching some pictures, even though I am only 1 week post op I am super happy with how they look so far; I know they will continue to settle and look even better. I didn't care about looking super natural, I wanted a round, slightly augmented look so that's why I chose above the muscle despite not having much tissue to start with. I was thankful that the surgeon let me make that choice; some surgeons I previously went to would only do over/under without letting me choose. I had some previous asymmetry before surgery where my left breast fold was slightly higher than my right so I am waiting for the left implant to drop slightly to be even with the right side. I'll keep this updated as I heal.
