Sientra 305cc Moderate Plus UTM 36yo 115lb 5'1

It's been a little bit over 6 weeks and everything has been great! Boobs are getting fluffier and dropping. I've been cleared of all actives and cleared to wear any types of bras.

I used a bra that fits calculator and my size is 30E in UK and 30DDD/F in US. 30 band is harder to find in US stores so I've ordered the US sister size instead. Depending on how they fit once I receive them, I may order the UK brands online. Bralettes are still my go-to since they're the most comfortable.

Activity-wise: I'm back to my regular workouts at the gym, but am easing into the weights. I haven't tried running yet, but I find stair master lately have been a better workout so I'm sticking with that. Attempted to do a pull up, but just hanging from the bar felt uncomfortable and tight so I stopped.

Scar is healing well. I've been using the silicone tape daily and will continue to wear them for another 6 weeks.

Overall, I love my boobs, and they feel more and more part of me each day!

Had my stitches removed today. I purchased some silicone tape to help with scarring and my PA said to apply the silicone tape for 3 months. PA said boobs are healing well and they're starting to drop and fluff.
Still experiencing some tightness, especially in the morning after waking up, but the swelling has gone down quite a bit. I've been massaging 2-3 times a day and can feel my boobs becoming softer.
I 've gone back to the gym and am just doing stairmaster and elliptical without using the arms. My PS said I'm cleared to start running in 3 weeks post-op and will probably start slow since any bouncing movements still feel a bit weird.
I have another follow up appointment in 2 weeks (4 weeks post-op). Hopefully boobs will continue to soften and fluff.

I've always been on the small side with 34A, but after picking up running, became even more deflated. BA has been on my mind since my early 20's and I've been researching on and off, but I finally decided to take the plunge this year.
Dr. Liu was great during my consultation and I felt completely at ease with him. My goal was to be fuller and to look as natural as possible. We decided on smooth round silicone moderate plus under the skin via inframammary incision. Due to my active lifestyle (running, lifting), Dr. Liu said this would give me the most natural look. I was indecisive between 285cc and 305cc, because I didn't want to go too big where it would be noticeable. Dr. Liu said that difference of 20cc is nearly indistinguishable and I could go with either. At our pre-op appointment, I decided on 305cc and am very happy I went with the larger of the two options. I think the size fits my frame and looks proportional.
Day of surgery (Aug 25):
I arrived at the surgery center 90 minutes before my 7:45am surgery time. I was pretty nervous, but my nurse was such an angel and made me feel so comfortable. She inserted my IV, gave me some pre-op meds (pain meds, muscle relaxant), and then it was a bit of hanging out until surgery time. Dr. Liu came and marked me and shortly after, it was go time! Once I was in the OR, things moved pretty quickly. My anesthesiologist said he was going to give me something to relax and boom I was out! When I woke up, I felt very disoriented and like I was in a dream. Surgery started probably closer to 8am and I went home a little after 10am. Once home, I headed straight to bed. I had a lot of nausea and drowsiness from the anesthesia. I would wake up every few hours to go the bathroom and tried to eat some soup, but couldn't handle even liquids due to the nausea. I ended up sleeping most of the day and woke up to take some Tylenol, ibuprofen, and anti-nausea meds. My chest felt very tight and sore. Getting out of bed was definitely a struggle, but I had a lot of help from my partner.
Day 1-3 post-op:
I was taking ibuprofen and Tylenol around the clock for pain management. My BM was all out of whack and I felt so bloated. Morning boob made getting out of the bed very uncomfortable. Boobs felt very hard and swollen. I tried to take a 5 min walk every hour, but arm range of motion was still very limited. I was able to wash my hair on day 3 by carefully placing my head upside down so I wouldn't have to raise my arms.
Day 4-6 post-op:
Boobs were still hard, but a little less swollen. I was taking less Tylenol & ibuprofen. Appetite and BM was back to normal.
Day 7 post-op:
Had my 7 day check up appointment. Dr. Liu said everything looked great and I should start doing massages twice a day. I'm getting my stitches removed in 1 week. I'm able to lift my arms above my head, but am still careful with my movements. Getting out of bed is easier, but I've discovered that I've been hunching from sitting so now I have to make a conscious effort to stand straight.
