No Regrets, my 200ccs Are Perfect for Me!

Debated whether or not I should post, but I am so extremely pleased with the whole experience I just had to. My BA took place exactly three weeks ago.
I am in my 40s and had my kids in my 20s. I nursed all of them, evidently so! I requested a "mini boob job" during my consultation and expressed that I wanted to look natural, a cup size larger at most. Dr Chen wanted me to not focus so much on cup size and but rather on how I felt when I tried on each sizer- 175cc and then 200cc. I decided on 200cc, Mentor smooth round, medium plus profile silicone implants placed submuscular.
I couldn't be happier. Recovery is going well. No pain. Still getting used to feeling the muscle on the implants as I become more mobile in my upper torso. Included a before pic with a tube top wearing a lightly padded strapless bra and the same tube top with just the new boobs one day post op (you can still see the pen marks). And current 21 days post op pics. No regrets ladies, I love my new "mini" boobs!

Feeling awesome at a little over 6 weeks post op. Last Thursday, Dr gave me the ok to resume all normal activity. Yay! I can't wait to get back to upper body workouts! Boobs are feeling so much softer after a weeks time, so much so that I love massaging them! Lol. As instructed, I massage for 15 min in the morning and 15 min before bed using Bio Oil. Love that stuff. Sorry not the greatest pic I posted.
Ahh, and I finally did my own bra measurement. Band size 31.5 and bust size 35.5. That makes me a 32DD. BUT, I tried on a 32 DD bra and the band was way too tight! I tried on a 34C bra and it felt much better. Still not sure what size to spend money on. As for the scarring. I think it's healing pretty well so far. Dr did a fabulous job keeping scar thin and flat. I alternate between Prosil and MedDerma to help with the scarring. So far I am still very happy with my BA with no regrets!

You look amazing! I'm a 39 y/o mother of 3 weighing the pros & cons of fat transfer vs modest/200 cc-ish implants for a more natural look. Can I ask what size you started out as and maybe your height and weight for comparison's sake? Thankyou for sharing! I hope some day I will have results as beautiful as yours!

Thank you very much for sharing your experience. It helps a lot. You look great! I am having a mini boob job next week and still hesitate about the size. Do you have more recent pictures ?

Would Love to hear how your recovery has been & your thoughts on having BA

Can I pls have before / after pictures? I wonder if I should go with 200 cc. I’m small, only a 34AA, I don’t want too big. I want to be natural

I’m scheduled with Dr. Chen in April and planning to do 200cc as well! Thank you for sharing your experience with him. I’m also 40, mother of two, breastfed both for a year and wanting a “mini” boob job! :) I LOVE your results and am saving your photos in my “wish pics” file to show what look I’m going for to Dr. Chen!
