Sientra 415cc Moderate Plus Implants
WORTH IT$8,000
Today was surgery day!
I went in at 6am, surgery at 7:30am, and home a little after 10am. It was all quick and efficient and I felt like I was in good hands. Honestly, I didn't really feel nervous going into surgery at all...just felt ready to get the procedure done!!
Stats:
•5'7"
•140-145lbs.
•Started as 34A-B
•Implants Sientra 415cc moderate plus
I'm about 5 hour post-op now. Feeling pretty good...but I obviously still have anesthesia in me and I'm alternating Tylenol and Ibuprofen. I have oxycodone for break-through pain if I need it. I just feel like others have described- like I did a really heavy chest.
I really struggled with the size selected by my doctor...I really wanted a nice natural look and nothing comically large or obviously fake. But I figured, he knows what he's doing and it better qualified to make the right selection for my body than I am. So, I left it up to him and he used the 415cc. As far as I can tell in the surgical bra right now, I think it was the right choice.
I did get a little nauseous on the way home from the surgery center which I've never done...but I chalk it up to taking medications and anesthesia on an empty stomach.
I'll add some picture when I can...but so far do good.
I anticipate I'll be much more sore tomorrow.

Post-OP Days 1 and 2
Post-Op Day 1 - I felt decent most of the day. The swelling really started to spread up toward my collarbones and by that evening I was feeling more uncomfortable and started to feel a little burning sensation in my incisions. I have been taking tylenol and ibuprofen around the clock and leaving the oxycodone for bedtime so I can sleep.
Post-Op Day 2 - Woke up feeling a little better, less pain from the swelling, but still very swollen. I'm more acutely aware of the incision sites and have some gauze padding covering those areas so the surgical bra doesn't rub them. Its the first day I was able to take a shower and really open up the bra and see what I was working with. Right now, the cleavage isn't as pronounced as it will be because of the swelling across my sternum. The implants are obviously still sitting high on my chest and my skin is very taught. There has been no draining or bleeding coming from my incision sites at all. I plan on using silicone sheeting and gel once they heal up to reduce the visibility of the scars.
Otherwise, so far so good. Discomfort is not as bad as I anticipated, and I can't wait to see how they will turn out when they finally drop and fluff!
