Night Before Surgery

Adventurous1361
Hey everyone, so tonight is the night before my surgery. I am supposed to meet with Dr Kleinman tomorrow around 12pm. I’m 20 years old and am currently 5’1, around 130 lbs and am currently a 34A/32B (large A, small B) no kids and I would like to be a full C/small D. I am stuck between 360cc and 390cc silicone smooth implants under the muscle as I do not want to go too big, however, i definitely do not want to feel that I’ve gone too small. I’ve heard that with silicone cc’s “get lost” once they drop and fluff and I just want a nice bust and cleavage for plunging necklines and cute tops. I’m super nervous for tomorrow but also pretty excited that I cannot sleep! I’ve never done a review like this so I hope to keep up with this and post updates! Wish me luck omg

Thank you so much, I’m looking forward to posting some more updates but nothing much has changed quite yet. I hope everything is going well for you too, I can just imagine the pain being that it was a more extensive surgery. I hope you love your results!

Hey guys! So I just had my surgery yesterday around 4pm and everything seems to be going well. I ended up going with 375cc. I think it was the perfect size for my frame. I had some bleeding once I got home around 8pm and Dr K assured me this was normal right after surgery and to just keep my bra and bandages in place. The bleeding didn’t last very long and ended last night it seems. Also! Dr K was so great and he even informed me that I had a bit of asymmetry with my breasts. Not something noticeable to me or my boyfriend but once he pointed it out I saw I have a little extra tissue on my left breast. This led to the doc putting the implant in a higher pocket. So right now both of my breasts are quite swollen and firm, but yesterday my left was much more swollen than my right probably due to the bleeding and the asymmetry like the doc said. As for pain, I felt fine like an hour after leaving the clinic. It’s all just mainly discomfort that I feel now when I’m trying to sit up or open something that puts pressure on my chest.

Soo it’s been a long weekend after my surgery. I went to my first post op appointment and dr kleinman said everything looked good. He changed my bloody gauze and put new tape. I have bruising under my left breast, which is totally normal. Nothing really hurts except that I bought a new sports bra and it’s a little snug and it does create some discomfort at first but as the swelling is lessening it’s getting better. I am still getting used to sleeping on my back, however, it is very challenging for me because I love sleeping on my side and on my stomach. However I’m really back to my normal routine I’m living on campus at school so I get around easily. I just obviously can’t lift anything heavy or exert too much force. My breasts are still a little sore but nothing compared to day 1-3. Also I am not allowed to shower for over a week post op so that’s a little annoying but nothing crazy I just use my wash clothes and wipes. I’m loving my results so far! They’re not looking like “Frankenstein boobs” which is what I expected. They look perky and full so I’m trying to enjoy them while they last before they drop and fluff.

Also, I wanted to add that I stayed away from taking any pain meds since my pain was maybe a 4/10. I believe that this helped me not get constipated and I’ve experienced no bloating. So happy with my recovery so far!
