Day 5 post-op

Today I had my first post op appointment and had the bandages removed. I cannot believe what an amazing job Dr Macadam did. She said to me after the operation that it was very difficult and took the full 4.5 hours with her, an assistant and another surgeon. She took fat from my outer thighs and injected 200cc's into my right breast (in the fold) with a 295cc silicone natrel inspra implant. My left breast fat graft of 20cc's in the fold and a 345cc silicone natrel inspra implant. Both are placed under the muscle.
Not going to lie, the first five days were hell. I was slightly regretting my decision to go through with the surgery however, five days in, I feel a lot better, hurt a lot less and can finally appreciate what my body had gone through.
The liposuction sites on my thighs are very tender and sore and i'm expecting the bruising to come any time (I currently have none). It's very tender when sitting or walking, even up until this point.
My breasts themselves feel sore to the touch and very tight up at the top of my chest. I've been wearing my compression bra every minute of every day aside from the few minutes while in the office and to sponge bath.
My next appointment is in two weeks to have the tape around my nipples removed.

Pre-op Consultation

I had my consultation on October 4th with the amazing Dr Macadam. She answered all of my questions in a lot of detail which helped me put my mind at ease. She is extremely knowledgeable and I have full trust in her expertise.
My specs-
25 years old
5' 5" tall
160 pounds
36 B bra
I am goal is to be around a large C/ D cup size. She has ordered implants raging from 350CC all the way up to 415CC in Natrelle inspria round gel (silicone- fullest round).
She will be performing a Periareolar Incision on each breast while decreasing the areola sizes, while lifting the nipples to a higher location. In the OR, she is going to fit me with the size she feels will be at the least amount of risk of the nipple herniating back out due to the pressure from the implants behind the skin.
The liposuction for fat transfer, she will be taking the fat from my outer thighs which will then be injected into my breasts where the implants will not be able to completely fill out my breasts. She will also be cutting out all the vertical, restrictive bands in both breasts to release the constrictive tissues to assist with giving my breasts a round, non-tuberous shape.
