WORTH IT
I just want to start off with this: getting a breast augmentation is the BEST thing I have ever done. Initially, when I saw them on day 3 I absolutely freaked out and thought I hated them. I believe that was due to the shock factor of going from being absolutely flat chested to having boobs and thinking that they were MASSIVE. I also believe that the muscle relaxers were causing me confusion and the inability to think straight. Luckily I was able to recognize this by day 3. By day 6 I stopped the muscle relaxers after consulting with my doctor and that’s when I really knew how much I loved them.
The surgery: I did what is called an awake breast augmentation. Sounds scary I know. But the surgery itself was not bad at all. I was actually able to talk to my surgeon during the operation and learned some new things. The only thing that hurt was the sternal shots. (Those left some scabs). I watched videos on it prior to the surgery so I knew that I could do it.
Post operation: the first day I threw up twice once I was home. I’m not sure if it was due to the pain or if the nitrous oxide made me nauseous. The first 3 days were BRUTAL. Day 2 is when I felt the most pain. Day 3 I believe I stopped taking hydrocodone and replaced it with Tylenol. Day 4 I stopped all medications that alleviated pain because I was no longer feeling pain. Just very tight. Day 6 I began driving and returned to work. Driving was challenging bc of how tight I felt. By day 8 I felt completely fine and could perform most movements. I am currently 17 days post op and feel great. I have not removed my tape to see my scars yet however
Sorry, I don’t have many before photos as I always tried to hide how flat chested I was.
My doctor did a PHENOMENAL job.
This is my personal experience. Of course, do what is best for you and consult with your doctor.

My scars aren’t pictured but they’re looking better and better each week. The implants have softened up quite a bit. I can’t wait to see the results when they reach their final resting positions and feel more natural. Sometimes I think that maybe I should have gone bigger but I’m still in love with the results thus far.
