Almost exactly 4 months Post-Op and I couldn't be happier!
I absolutely LOVE my breasts! I still wish I would have gone to 650cc I was only going to go to 450cc at first THANK GOD I decided to go to 500cc then during the pre-op they were showing me the Netrell implants and they didn't have that size available so she had handed me a Mentor implant.... i freaked! I COULD NOT BELIEVE how DIFFERNT AND HOW MUCH BETTER the Mentor implant felt! It felt so much softer, more natural, so light it was 10000x better then the name brand, household name everybody knows Netrell!!!!! I swear to God best thing that ever happened! They one she handed me was 550cc and they didn't have the size I chose i was determined to get the Mentor implant. There was NO CHANGING MY MOND AND NO GOING BACK, the doctor was absolutely fine with the change, so either go down in size or go up.... they always say you get boob greed (100% fact by the way ALWAYS GO A SIZE UP FROM WHAT YOU THINK YOU WANT AND DO NOT BE SCARED OF A NUMBER!!!!) so I went up! I am so so glad I did! Don't get me wrong I am so happy and they are PERFECT I just wish they were a bit bigger.
No one can tell i had implants. I always wore the bombshell add 2 cup size bras so they look so similar! Obviously the people I told can tell but I have the most PERFECT TEARDROP BREASTS EVER! Idk if it is the implant or the profile (high profile) or the fact i didn't sleep with any bra after my 3rd week or so.... but they feel JUST RIGHT! I AM THRILLED EASE IF YOU WANT GREAT BREASTS GO SEE DR. SINGER, GO TO PREMIER IN TAMPA FLORIDA!!!

8 weeks post op and LOVING MY RESULTS!!!
I have never in my life felt this confidence i feel now. I am still heavier then I would like to be as far as my weight goes however, for the first time in my life I feel proportional.
You would not believe how much progress I have made in 8 weeks. So first of all shame on me... i did not listen to my doctor about wearing the surgical bra 23 hrs a day for the whole 3 months. It was so uncomfortable when your used to sleeping 100% naked every night. I couldn't sleep i was miserable. I did however sleep sitting up for 14 days straight. I changed onto a high compression sports bra that was 1000x more comfortable during the day and 3 weeks in i started sleeping without a bra at all. I would shower in the morning and put my sports bra back on. I grabbed a Victorias Secret high compression zip up bra then a puma super comfy seemless compression bra. I read so many mixed recommendations from probably 100 doctors and they were 50/50 about wearing a bra at all. I will tell you I TRULY BELIEVE i have dropped as far as I have as quick as I have because I let them breath and let gravity take over at night. I have been using mederma EVERY MORNING AND NIGHT RELIGIOUSLY since the steri strips came off and I think its helping. My incisions are a bit longer and deeper then I would like but overall I am thrilled. I still have a bit of Boob greed I wish I went with 650cc instead although my boyfriend said i would look weird and they are beautiful and perfect just the way they are... he wouldn't change a thing. I am so greatful I'm telling you if your on the fence about getting this surgery DO NOT BE SCARED BY A NUMBER, JUMP OFF THE FENCE AND RUN to as many consultations as you can research research research until you find your perfect doctor! Do not let money be a factor! Save if you have to but Dr. Singer is amazing!

I love your review!!! Thank you for mentioning NOT being afraid of a number. I was not informed as I should have been and my results are fine, but because I know that I didn't fill my pocket width to what it should have been, I definitely have boob greed.
Awe! That is HORRIBLE I know i do too! I just posted an update with photos so you can see what 4 mo post op looks like! Not bad. I am happy but I wish they were bigger. I was so scared of that number that that is what I thought about. DD really is NOT that big in retrospect lol. Plus I gained some weight so they look proportional. I dont want them too lol I want them too look A BIT bigger then proportional lol NOT CRAZY BUG or anything but you know what I mean! I'm so so glad they don't stick straight up and look fake. I LOVE the Mentor gummy teardrop look they are brilliant! My daughter has a friend that her mom got them like 10 years ago and there sailine and they look like 2 punching bags on her chest there so high and hard looking it's awful she couldn't believe i had mine done and how great they looking. She's having a revision done with my doctor lol. Can't be scared of a number....

8 days post
8 days PO!
So I went to see the surgeon yesterday for my one week follow up. She was shocked at how well I was doing. She said I had minimal swelling and bruising which shocked the hell outta me. It gets worse then what I had??? Lol. On the plus side she said I have dropped more then she expected as well and I can finally sleep on my back laying down and i am allowed to lift my arms above my head!!! Yay no more dinosaur arms!!! I am E-rex no more I have minimal pain and discomfort every once in a while I'll have a sharp pain in my left incision. She told me to start wrapping the top of my boobs in an ace bandage to give them an assist in dropping. It's pretty uncomfortable though. Theres a lot of pressure underneath at the incision doe to the pressure of the bandage pushing them down so hard. I must confess I slept with no bra on the last 2 nights which I 100% saw a huge drop in them each morning the swelling is a lot less as well. They feel very heavy while sleeping but I am sleeping very slightly propped up for gravity reasons more then comfort. Half the doctors say dont wear a bra at all for the first few months others say wear it constantly for 6 months...
I don't think there is any proven theory one way or the other so I am doing what's best for me. I told my doctor and she just said ok... so I'm going to continue. It is such relief when I first take it off for quite a while after. Here are some updated pictures in a sports bra with a tank top on. The look GREAT in a tank top!!!! I am so so happy 100% worth every penny, all the pain, discomfort, worry, research and everything that goes along with it! Again any questions or comments I'd love to hear them! I'll post more topless ones soon for progress!

Omg you look so good already. They will heal into beautiful DDs.. what i wanted :(
Happy healing and keep us updated.
Happy healing and keep us updated.
I'm still swollen and high as well- most of it is from my incision to my nipple because mine was done thru the armpit. I have a feeling mine will take longer. I'm still in a lot of pain and discomfort and I might try a bandage around the top! I know after I last down and relax I feel great after it's after the day is done I feel tight and hurting- I love seeing your updates because we are neck and neck on appearance wise! Makes me feel better knowing someone else is at the same rate as me- I did get 650cc tho so mine might take longer because they are bigger
I almost wish I went that big. Now my cruise is cancelled which I'm so dissapointed about but more time to heal!
Congratulations on your new boobilicousness!!!! I waited until I was 35, and absolutely love them!!
I'm 34 I waited all this time too and I wish I had done it sooner. My boyfriend thinks they are the perfect size but there not as big as i thought they were going to be. I am kinda sad there not as big as i wanted but I think that's how everyone feels. I will tell you I love the way they look in a sports bra now. I cant wait to see when they drop and fluff more. Not wearing the bra at night has helped CONSIDERABLY with them dropping. Every morning I wake up and there lower then the day before. I really am glad I did this! Stitches come out day after tomorrow CANT WAIT!!!!
Oh trust me, I still have the gawd awful boob greed!!! It's only because I realized after surgery that I didn't pick an implant size to fill my entire breast pocket.
I was afraid of a 'CC' number and didn't ask the right questions.
I went with 390cc and should have been 425cc for my pocket. It would have just been a bit duller in the width
Live and learn
