I'm exactly 1 more week to my scheduled surgery and will be documenting the journey here as there aren't that many Asian/SG stats for reference. I'd be as detailedas I found these posts particularly helpful in my research towards what I am looking for!

- 33 year old Asian
- Mom of 2, breastfed 2 years collectively. Currently 2 years post partum and 7months since I stopped breastfeeding
- Asymmetrical breast due to mild scoliosis and my daughter had left boob preferance
- Physique is top skinny but bottom heavy hence hoping BA will help me look more proportioned
- Do not exercise but am the main caregiver for both kids so I reckon housework do amount to something :p

Prepreg I was about a full A cup, breastfeeding period I ballooned to C and after BF I shrunk massively to a deflated A :(

I honestly could never imagined my boobs could shrink even smaller than it originally was but it's possible! Terribly demoralised not being able to fill into clothes and was hoping my boobs would somehow revert; no luck!

Decided to book a consultation (that was about 1.5weeks back) for BA. Session is like what many girls describe here - Dr Shen showed me some before and after, took my measurements as well as a 3d rendering of how my outcome would look like base on his recommendation (300cc & 355cc).

He went through the different types of implants but I already made my mind on Motiva base on all my prior research.

The nurse then takes you into another room to do a T shirt fitting with the implants, also mentioning the actual outcome would be about 10% smaller. Settled with 355cc but deep inside I kindda want it slightly larger? 375cc maybe?

Dr Shen noted I had mild scoliosis on my left rib and I feel my asymmetrical breast is quite pronounced but somehow he feels it doesn't warrant a different sized implant. I didnt get to see him to clarify further after the fitting so I think I'd raise it up again on surgery day.

For now I'm just counting down to exactly 7 more days before I get to be on the other side! Wish me luck:)

Would you mind telling me about underbust, bust, and breast width diameter ?

hi! i did not get my measurements from the doctor but measured myself:

underbust: 74cm
overbust: 80cm
breast width: 11cm-ish (lesser than 11.5cm; this was harder to measure accurately with a tape)

hope it helps!

5 hours since I left the clinic and feeling a lot better to post an update!

Surgery experience:
Reached clinic about 10am, nurses prep all the medications before ushering me into the room to get changed and take some pre op photos. I got to see the actual implant inside the box with my details labelled to it so feeling very assured. Just to note my implants comes with QID which is a microtransponder (RFID chip). I did a quick research and it's MRI safe and few certification so no issues for me. Something to take note and as always do your own research! I know Motiva as the non QID version and if you do not wish to have that option it's probably better to voice out to your own doctor.

Dr comes in to do markings and I confirmed implants would be placed under muscles. Voiced my concern about asymmetrical breast (attributed mostly to loose skin and mild scoliosis and not different amount of breast tissue/fat) and whether or not the same size implants would accentuate the problem rather than resolve it.

He said it would make it much better and my scoliosis is not v apparent hence he still feels it doesn't warrant different sizing implant. So my takeaway was I may/may not have identical sisters but definitely close enough.

Actual surgery was very smooth. Anesthetist comes in to explain the process. 1 jab through the hands, slightly drowsy, then then 2 jabs on each side of the chest and before I know it it's a good solid nap!

Woke up with the expected tightness on the chest. Mothers who breastfed and had mastitis will know that engorge feeling! I was also shivering like crazy despite the nurses warming the bed I know it's probably my side effects from the painkillers or antibiotics because it was exactly what happened to me when I delivered my girl & had epidural.

No biggie cus within 20 mins I was perfectly fine. I was given the Motiva warranty card (whoa! Talk about premium right?) which I am required to register via Motiva app.

Clinic service:
Really wonderful! I was given milo and crackers post surgery and never once felt rushed to leave. They gave me a lot of privacy and was responsive throughout. Thumbs up.

Pain:
The tightness/sore discomfort became quite unbearable for me as the hours went so I popped Tramadol and felt a lot better. I'm very thankful my husband is able to takeover caring for the kids because beyond standing and sitting, I feel completely incapacitated and it sucks. I have to constantly "fend" them off cus they are so used to headbutting my chest and me carrying them. At this point even pressing down the toilet flush button is a feat.

Look of it:
Sitting high and hard as to be expected. The left side (uneven side caused by scoliosis and loose skin) is looking quite odd for now cus the implant has not dropped to fill the loose skin.

So excited for the drop and fluff!!!

Oh and I also wanted to clarify in case it came out wrongly. I was not shown the actual implant inside the box. The box was sealed with a label of my details on it left on the table by the nurse. I just wanted to be extra clear so there will be no difference in expectations for those who intend to visit the same doc as I did!

Day 1 postop - 1st post op check up, discomfort level & overall update

Pain is a lot worse this morning, coupled with the fact I had one of the worst sleep last night which made me qns why did I not take sleeping pills in the first place? Went to bed with nagging discomfort from upper chest and throbbing pain at lower half of breast and incision area. Took panadol and surprisingly it was more effective at cutting out the pain vs tramadol which is supposedly stronger. I parked myself in the living room to sleep on the recliner chair just to be away from the kids (we co sleep) cus they are all about roughhousing before bedtime and I wasn't gonna risk getting an implant punched out of place.

No matter how much I tried I just couldn't get my self to sleep!!

Woke up today and discomfort turned to overall throbbing pain. The pain migrated to the middle line of my chest and would feel sore and sensitive to touch!! I feel so much tightness and discomfort at my lower torso I can't decide if it's the pain from post op or cramps from moving myself up and down or I'm freaking bloated/constipated. In summary, pain pain and more pain.

So happy to have my first post op review today to check if all these pains I'm having is normal (it is)? Rn I'm not even thinking about the drop & fluff; I'm just counting down to when all these discomfort will ebb :(

Dr advise no big stretches exercise for now (opps, exactly what I did last night to try and "shake off" the tightness), and to dry the sealant wound tape immediately after shower.

He did a quick check and all seems okay!

Was also given 1 complimentary breast recovery therapy session at the adjacent room and it felt so relaxing.

Can't stand completely upright today though I can still manage to wear my own shorts and do day to day activities. Sensation at upper half of breast is returning but the lower half is still relatively numb to touch.

Boobs still looks almost the same so maybe more pics in a couple of days time!
