Sientra Implants 6 Weeks Post Op, Details!

WORTH IT
Please Read! Like you I relied heavily on sites like this when going through Breast Augmentation. Here's what I want to share.

STATS: 5'5", 155 lbs, 45 YO,
Pre Surgery 34 B
After 34 DD
Sientra Implants under muscle 505 cc
Level 3 muscle release.

I won't get into the consult because it was similar to what everyone else post. Although my Dr. was awesome helping me choose size I had 3 options to achieve my goal 535, 505 and 485. I chose 505 cc

Day 1 thru Week 1: Very sore, felt like rocks on my chest. Very hard and sleeping was difficult. Meds helped stopped taking after day 4. Underarms sore could barely raise to put on deodorant. Showering was uncomfortable, couldn't wash back or underarms well.

Week 2-3: More mobility, still hard and sore. Still sleeping on back, although Dr said I could sleep however I felt comfortable. Wearing Surgery bra, felt uncomfortable without it on. Incision area still sore to touch as well as breast. Breast massage is helpful but still sore. Left breast is more tender and nippers are very tender.

Week 4: Started feeling more normal, breast are softer feeling like apart of my body. Can last longer without a bra on, showering is back to normal. Sleeping is somewhst comfortable on my side but still propped up.

Week 5-6: Finally feeling normal, wearing no bra is comfortable. Side sleeping is great! Purchased bras, 1 underwire and 1 without.

A++ Experience with Dr. Vanek

ymac21

Dr. Vanek and his staff is A+++. I felt comfortable from the initial phone call with MaryJo. Dr. Vanek was professional and gave his professional opinion without pressure. From consult to surgery to post op everything was smooth. I am very happy I found Dr. Vanek, and I recommend highly.
