33 year old 250CC mod. Looking to restore fullness from breast feeding

WORTH IT$8,800
After nursing 2 kids I decided it was time to get back to my pre kid boobies back. I couldn’t find too many reviews that were less than 300CC so I though it was be beneficial to anyone looking for a smaller implant. My surgery was May 30,2019.

Probably should have added this information before and little more about me.

I’m 5’7 125 Lbs. I wore 34D Victoria secrets bras which I think are probably generous with there sizing.
Dr. Hochstein and his staff have all been great throughout the whole process. He said I was more like a C. At one time I was just looking to get a lift but then I realized if I wanted more upper pole volume I would need to add an implant. After going back and forth a lot, like many of us do, Dr H and I decided Mentor 250Cc mod would be enough. I was happy with that because I didn’t want to be huge just restored and proportioned. He also said I would probably be a little bit bigger than I originally was and I’m ok with that too.
I’ve never had big boobs until I was breast feeding so I’m hoping I’m going to be happy with the size once the swelling goes down.
I’m currently on day 2 and feel pretty good for the most part. I’m taking all the medicine when I should and I think I’ll be able to switch to Tylenol tomorrow or at least once I get back home. (Flew in from out of state) I’ve been sleeping on and off and just relaxing until I get back home to two kiddos.
I’ll try to keep updating as much as I can and answer any questions anyone has.

I'm flying from out of state to get a lift and implants too, and mine will also be smaller- no desire to go big as I've always had smaller boobs and I'm just fine with that. How long is your PS keeping you in Florida before you fly back home? I'm planning to have surgery on a Friday and fly back home the next Wednesday night after a follow up. Hoping that gives me enough time to recover. Look forward to hearing about your experience! Your results look great so far!

I flew in on Wednesday and had my pre-op appointment that day, surgery Thursday, And we are staying until Saturday. He said we could fly home the next day but I think that would have been too soon. I’m actually surprised how well I feel for day two. I think maybe it has something to do with a smaller implant and the pain pill definitely helps. You should be fine if you have five days to recover.

Awesome, thank you! I hope you'll continue to post your progress and pics! I'd love to follow how things go for you, especially the first couple weeks!
June 1, 2019
No problem! I’ll definitely try to keep up on the progress. I know how helpful it can be that’s pretty much the only reason I’m sharing my experience. I’m generally a pretty private person. The only people that know so far that I had it done are my mom, MIL, and obviously my husband.

I'm the same way! The only people that know I'm doing it are my husband and mom. My MIL and all my in laws would totally judge me, haha! One reason I'm staying for five days is so that I'm not home with my kids- I don't want them to find out either if I can help it (my oldest daughter is 12). And since I'm not going bigger I'm hoping it can stay that way. Thanks again for sharing! If love to hear how your flight goes since we aren't supposed to lift anything. My husband will be with me for the first 2 days after surgery, but I'll be on my own the last 3 days and the flight home. Hoping flight attendants and car rental people are helpful with lifting my carry on for me.

Yeah you definitely don’t want to lift anything. But from what I read on here you can tell the airline when you check in that you’ve had surgery and they will have someone help you with your luggage and everything. And if you don’t feel like walking I believe they will push you in a wheel chair to where you need to go.

At home and off pain meds
Lily102012June 2, 2019
Feeling overall well for day 3. Traveling last night wasn’t too bad, my husband did everything with the luggage so I didn’t have to worry about lifting or carrying anything.
We had a 2 1/2 hr plane ride and near the end is when the Senna-S, stool softener/laxative, decided to kick in, sorry tmi. Luckily everything worked out and I’m not longer constipated so yay for that!
I didn’t take any pain meds last night before bed, just the antibiotic and woke up feeling just stiff or had morning boobs as the term I’ve heard a lot, but no pain.
Fingers crossed the healing continues to be smooth and uneventful.

I’m also having the same issue.
I’m 4 weeks post op and my right side is still bigger than the left that has gone softer and no more swelling.
