Breast Augmentation in South Korea: Seoul Cosmetic Surgery and Banobagi Clinic

It’s the 3rd month mark and things are still going well! The implants “dropped” a bit, but not too much. Because they’re still a liiiitle bit sore to the touch, I know I still got more healing to do. I know they’re still going to drop even further. I’ve still been rubbing coconut oil on my breasts to help with the stretched skin. I’m back to my normal workout routine of lifting weights. They feel fine when I run and do back workouts. I still haven’t done push ups yet though. Maybe after the holidays :) But I can tell that they are healing nicely!

Hey guys,

So my implants are nestling well. A lot of it dropped and starting to take a more natural form. My nipples are still sensitive to the touch and that general areola area. But overall, I’m happy how the recovery is going. I know they still have more “dropping” to do. They still feel a little hard to the touch, but it hasn’t even been 3 months yet. I’m just glad the implants dropped like they were supposed to.

Activity wise, I’m back in the gym. I did an upper body workout for the first time. I know they say that you can start working out after 6 weeks, but I wanted to be safe and wait at least 2 months. Did I gain a bit of weight? Yeah, but at least I can work out now. I can pretty much do things normally at this point. I can also sleep on my side comfortably and everything.

Pain wise, there’s no real discomfort. I would feel a ping of discomfort or so, but I was told that’s cause my nerves are getting they’re feeling back slowly. One thing I hope is that as they continue to drop, the breasts come closer together so I have a more natural cleavage.

Overall, super happy with my results.

I'm 3 weeks post-op and I think I'm healing great. I had my check up yesterday and Dr. Han checked my stitches and my overall progress. He seemed very happy with the results and said they should look much better over the next couple of weeks. Since I'll be in Korea one more week, he said he wanted to check on me one more time before I leave, so we set an appointment for that.

As you can see from the photos, my implants are still sitting high and my skin is still taut. But, not as bad as before. Of course, the doctor said it's still too early and as the skin relaxes over time, it'll look much more natural. I believe him, and since I already did a lot of research beforehand, I knew this was to be expected. But, I'm very happy with the size. I can't tell they will look great once they "drop" and soften. Most of the discomfort is gone and I feel somewhat normal again. They still feel stiff to the touch. I still can't exercise much which sucks, but I know I have to take the recovery seriously for optimal healing.
