25 Finally Getting Rid of the Extra 36HH

ORIGINAL POST

After researching for about 2 years and visiting...

After researching for about 2 years and visiting several doctors I finally found one who was amazing and made this process soooo easy. Dr. Samir Rao and his staff have been amazing from the very start always prompt with answering my questions and my requests. After my initial consult his coordinator Danielle put my paperwork in right away to see if my insurance would cover it. Within a week of her putting it in I was approved and had a surgery date set for about 3 weeks after my approval. Tomorrow is the big day and I'm super excited to be going from a 36HH to a D cup. He hasn't told me an exact size but it'll be in the D's. I have had large boobs since the 4th grade and the back pain and the pin of finding clothes that fit and paying triple the price for bras is just unbearable. I'm hoping this procedure goes off well and that I love my new boobs

I went from an E to a C back when I was in my early 30's.

I remember looking in the mirror at my new C cups thinking I was almost flat chested! It took my brain a while to catch up with reality.

I am sure you will find the change miraculous.

Good luck!

24 hours after surgery

Soooo it's been 24 hours since I had my procedure... in pretty scared to look at it so I haven't taken the bandages or bra off yet. But I feel completely different. I weighed myself this morning and I am 7 pounds lighter. My surgeon did tell me he took out about 2.5 pounds of fat from each breast. They are sitting pretty high up. I'm still swollen but the pain is bareable. Like it's not as painful as period cramps. It seems like everything happened soooo fast the anesthesia really helped a lot lol. I'm hoping for a speedy recovery.

He doesn't use drains.. that's one of the reasons I went with him... he stitches and uses water resistant glue I was able to shower 24 hours later... I'm scared of drains and sores
