Thrilled with the Results So Far!! Best Decision!

Not even 24 hours post-op, and I am already thrilled with the results and feeling amazing. Dr. Wallace is truly a master at his craft. I completely trusted him and his expertise to know what would look good on me.
The surgery was easy and recovery so far has been that way, as well. Pain is minimal, only slight pressure and tightness on chest as is typical. I've gone about today pretty normal, able to walk around in the house as much as I'd like, talk and hangout with my friends while watching TV.
I am wearing a bra for comfort-sake (though, I don't have to if I don't want) and won't take it off until I shower, but from what I can see, there is no bruising or redness. Recovery has been a piece of cake, but I'll be careful not to overdo it and keep relaxing and taking it easy. I credit the minimal signs of pain, bruising, and redness to not only the pain meds lol but also to the hands of a masterful surgeon.
I am 5'10, 132 pounds. I was previously a 32 B but hardly filled out the cup unless it was a push up bra. I will find out what I am in my post-op appointment, but currently wearing a 32 D bra and fill it up completely. I did under the muscle! Photos below!

Looks great so far! What size and type of implant did you do?
June 24, 2020
I did 385cc, silicone, under the muscle! I let my surgeon take control on my size and trusted his expertise on what would look best on my body. Very happy so far!
June 25, 2020
They look great! Did you do high profile or moderate? I can't decide!
June 25, 2020
I'm not sure yet lol! I'll have to ask him in my post-op, but I'm pretty sure it's high profile. That's what he thought he'd need to do on me anyways
June 26, 2020
That's exactly what I'm doing as well!! They look great!

They look amazing! I can't wait to see more of your journey!

So far everything is going super smooth! Pain is so minimal now that I don't need to take my narcotics. Tylenol works fine. My breast feel very tight, firm and swollen currently. It's definitely discomfort, but not painful. They still have that torpedo look to them, but I can't believe how great they look after just one day. Insane! I can only imagine how they'll look in a few months!
I haven't lost my sensation in my nipples. If anything they're more sensitive. I do have some numbness on the right side of my breast, but that's it. Still no redness or bruising which is awesome!

I am so glad you posted! I am looking into this practice for a mommy make over.

They look amazing! When you say tightness, do you mean the implants just feel tight against your chest or is it affecting your breathing?

Depending on the size you go I thought mine felt like tightness/heaviness. A few times I panicked thinking I was struggling to breathe but you get used to the feeling eventually. I got 500cc. Just my experience and I had a BL/BA almost 3 yrs ago.

Thank you!! It's just a level of tightness around your entire chest and slightly under the arms. Definitely hasn't interfered with my breathing. Imagine a really tough chest workout leaving you tight and sore the next day -- that's what it's like for me! Not bad at all.

Hopefully as they d&f you'll gain a little bit of cleavage. I know BA only enhances what we have aka:fullness but isn't it so exciting to see the transformation? Congrats on your BA! Happy continued healing and please continue posting!!

Week 1 Update

Abuffy
A little more than a week since surgery and each day is a new adventure!

I'll try to note the biggest changes I've seen throughout this week.

Days 1-3: Little pain outside tightness, heaviness on chest. I also took my pain meds on time which helped a lot. Mornings were the worst were I'd feel the most tight. Getting out of bed was difficult, I'd need my mom to come the first two days. And times when I was on the couch, I'd need my brother to help me up. Drove in a car the second day (passenger), big mistake!! Little bumps hurt so bad! Also realized the side of my right breast is numb, though I do have hypersensitive nipple sensation. The worst part of the first few days was getting extremely constipated. I took stole softeners, mirolax... nothing worked. And I started getting dreadful cramps, so I took magnesium citrate. That fixed the issue lol. I stopped taking the opioids on the third day since the constipation wasn't worth it. Now on Tylenol, but I think I can stop tomorrow (Day 9). Finally, go extremely freaked out because I developed air bubbles under my skin and had no idea what it was. Of course I googled and it said "gas gangrene infection" so I almost went to the ER. Ended up calling the surgeon and found out it was simply air from the surgery that my body would absorb (and it did!), but man don't freak out if that happens... it feels like rice krispy treats under the skin and you can even hear it sometimes, but it's totally normal! Definitely scared me though.

Day 4-6: Tightness still there but now able to get out of bed by myself. Much more mobile. Ability to lift arms increased. Now can ride in cars with no problem as long as it's not gravel road lol. On the 5th day, I drove around a lot and walked almost all day... on day 6 was incredibly swollen. Had to dial back on the activity. The most pain in my boobs at this point was my left incision.

Day 7-8: Breasts are 15% softer. I can move them slightly though they are very firm still. Mornings are worse this week than last. I feel tightness, tenderness, burning sensations in the morning. It's when I feel my nerves awakening the most. Also morning boob as well. It's not bad, just uncomfortable and annoying (like a pulled muscle that sometimes burns inside sporadically).

I still gotta remind myself to take it easy. I want to workout so bad and that has been the worst part of this. I think they look a little more rounded and "fluffier" since the first photo. Excited to see the changes for week 2!
