I am 5'7 and 129 lbs with an athletic figure and currently I am a 32 A. I wanted a natural look with additional fullness. I would like smaller implants as not to feel bigger or top heavy; I like having a slender look- maybe a small C. My ps suggested a mentor memoryshape implant for a natural look anywhere from 255cc to 300cc. I may want to go up to 340 but my width is small (10.5) so I am not sure if any larger of an implant can fit unless I choose a round implant. I'm worried about the size- take a look at my "befores" and let me know what you think!

You might enjoy this forum for members getting smaller sized implants. Also, feel free to join the December 2015 breast augmentation forum for some post op support. Good luck and looking forward to seeing your results!

I did it! I had my surgery 4 days ago and I am feeling pretty normal besides some back pain. As planned, we went with the memoryshape (teardrop implant) at 300 cc. I'm pretty happy with the size (still looks big to me) but there is still a lot of swelling. I also am happy with how symmetrical they are. I can't wait until they drop down and get softer. They are pretty firm right now. I have been taking it really easy since the surgery, slept most of the days and took all meds. I have slept on the couch/recliner in an upright position with a HEATING PAD behind my back. I cannot stress enough how much relief this has brought! Definitely a must. I plan to go back to work in 3 days (7 days after surgery). I'm a lawyer with a desk job so I'm not that worried; plus it's a Friday so I can come home and relax for the weekend after my first day back. I have my first post-op appointment in 2 days and I'll post some updates. Getting more excited everyday!

they look fine and they are not big at all! I'm planning that size for me too but round as I am afraid that they may move and don't want to risk haveing another op!

I had my first post-op appointment and my doctor is pleased with the shape, healing and the fact that there is no bruising! I can feel my boobs getting softer everyday but they are still very firm and pointy (nips at high alert at all times lol). I have been advised that I can do some walking as exercise now but nothing more. At my two week appointment next week Xmas eve, my dr will remove the steristrips (remaining bandages) and I will be cleared to go bra less or use a wireless bra. I'm very excited because the surgical bra is so uncomfortable and provides no padding to conceal my rocket nipples. As of last night I stopped taking the heavy pain meds and I was taking Advil today. This evening I don't even feel like I need to take anything for sleep so long as I have my trusted HEATING PAD! Today at work I wore a Thermacare heat band under my shirt on my back where I tend to get pain from bad posture. It really helped and will continue wearing it during the day. I'm going shopping now for a wireless, lightly padded bra tomorrow. Can't wait until they soften more; I can get them to push together quite yet. I will take some pics in clothes so you can see what the size looks like if your considering 300cc high profile memoryshape.

Wow you look great! No bruising and it doesn't look like u r swelling much either. I have similar stats and did 295 memory shape mod plus a few days ago. My bwd is wider though (12.2, hence the mod plus). I am very happy already. Ihopeyourrecovery continues to go well!

Thank you!!!! Your pictures look very close to mine when I was at your point. It is amazing how different you feel day to day. I am at day 18 and feel almost normal again!!! Were you surprised at the size? I measured a 34 D at VS but I know this will change!
