I am 5'5 and 115lbs with a lean and slender fran. I have always been uncomfortable with my breast since I was an early teenager. I could tell one was larger than the other by enough that it made it really uncomfortable to wear bras and clothing. I have a very lean and narrow frame so my breasts were very lean as well. One could fit into a C cup but the other struggled to fill that or a B comfortably. I was extremely apprehensive to do this because I didn't want to feel like I was "changing" myself. Implants were a big NO for me. My friend had this surgery done last year after lots of research and was so happy with the results. So I decided to give it a go. Dr.Bednar and his team are so nice and non intimidating. They made me feel so comfortable. I came across country alone and Sylvia made sure I was put up in a hotel very well and comfortable. She even left me a goody bag from whole foods and brought me lunch. AND picked me up from the airport! My over night nurse was so sweet and made sure I was very comfortable. Right now I'm about 4 days out of surgery and I'm just a bit tender in my lipo places. They ended up trying to take fat from wherever they could because I'm very lean and slender. Mostly took from my back and outer thighs. They managed to get 500cc to place in both breasts. My goal was to achieve a symmetrical size C cup for both breasts. Right now they think I'm around a full D and Dr. Bednar was very optimistic that I would achieve my goal. I'm still quite bruised around my lipo areas and breasts, but He said it wasn't that bad. My upper chest is still hard and swollen but I can already feel it going down. I'm very happy that I did this and I'll update on what the outcome is as my recovery continues on.

Day 7 after surgery
123grtyJuly 28, 2015
So my breasts are starting to soften up a bit. Not by much but there's enough change to notice. The bruising is starting to yellow and I think that means it's starting to subside. Stop swollen but pain is minimal! I feel more sore in my back and my legs where they took the day from. My back is still tender and swollen with not a lot of feeling to the touch, but it's starting to go down and come back. I think that's going to take a lot of time. The back and sides of my legs are bruised the worsed. There wasn't much fat to take from there in the first place so I think it took a toll on that area. Bruising is pretty bad! And it hurts the most out of all the areas. But it's only day 7 so I'm pretty optimistic! The breast are still staying symmetrical which was the goal. So far so good!

I'm so excited for you! I'm getting the same procedure with Dr. Bednar too in two weeks. How long did you stay there before flying home? I'm worried about the flight home after surgery. Did the anesthesia make you nausea at all? Which hotel did you stay?

I think you'll be really happy with your decision! I flew in on Tuesday and left Sunday night. My surgery was Wednesday. So I was there for about 4-5 days. Fortunately for me anesthesia has never made me nauseous! So I was able to eat the day of with no problem. I might have over ate trying to keep my body strong though. Be careful because the pain killers make you really constipated which is no fun. So make sure you bring stool softeners. I'm still trying to "clean" myself out hahaha sorry TMI but just being honest. I stayed at the Hampton inn which isn't too far from their office. It's very nice and the beds are so comfy. I highly recommend it. The flight home was a pain in the butt (literally) just try to plan your pain meds accordingly. I drove myself home so I had to take them with enough time that they'd wear off enough so I could drive. It just depends on where your headed to. I'd probably have someone pick you up and take you home though. The flight attendants were nice enough to give me so ice for my back. I think you'll do great(:

I don't know why but I can't see your pictures I want to have this done sounds like it went well for you. How hard was it to recovery after being in surgery that long?

One week after surgery

Breast are still swollen. But starting to soften up. Doesn't hurt that much. Only sometimes. My back and sides hurt more than anything but the bruising is subsiding. Thankfully my bruises don't last long. I haven't felt any hard lumps or cysts starting to form yet (probably way too soon to tell) but praying that the healing process continues to be a positive one.

I don't have any but my breast looked a lot like Miley Cyrus (im sure you can look her up and figure that out) just asymmetrical but they didn't look bad. Just hard to fit into clothes and bras

Hi,
I wanted to tell you how amazing your results are! I am considering a fat transfer over my anatomical implants. I would love to hear how your healing process goes and also hope you don't get any hard nodules! You look awesome girl!!

Thank you ! My gyno actually thought I had cysts before I had surgery. They did and ultrasound and turns out my breast tissue is just very dense. So honestly if they're were nodules I don't think I'd know the difference (although I hope everything stays healthy and positive) fingers crossed! I'll be updating tomorrow at my 2 week mark.
