I am so glad you are posting! I had 385cc textured sientra moderate profile overs done on 3/4/15. There aren't many people with overs on here and I love to see pics. My doc was very comfortable doing overs for a number of reasons. So many people are anti-overs that it's so nice to see someone that has them too!! I look forward to more of your posts! :)
What were your doctors reasons for going over? I think that is my preference as well.
To lift the sagging I had from breast feeding, also I work out and when you go under the muscle and do upper body workouts it will eventually push the implant down and to the sides. They are also softer over the muscle. My husband loves them he said he cant feel the implant at all and they feel incredibly real.
Higher risk of capsular contractures
Hi! First time poster. Former Model. 5'6, 97lbs. Had very little breast tissue to work with. BA on 3/9/15. Only pics were taken by my Fab PS. Couldn't even fill a padded 34 A. My PS also went with Overs... 210 Sientra textured teardrop. Hard to find others with Overs.... LOL. Also did arm lift @same time. Arms @Breasts look Fab. Would like more info from women with Overs. Many thanks in advance. xoxo
Just wondering if you got a military discount? When I had asked about it the price for silicone implants was quoted the same with the discount.
How are things settling? I'm going over the muscle as well, and it's super hard finding post 2 week updates...everything still good?
Can I post a pic where your not laying down?

Post Op Day 4

I woke up not needing any Percocet and didn't take any before bed. Still some swelling up top, seems more so in the morning. The only discomfort I have is the incisions, it's not painful but more so that itchy healing phase. Im really happy with the size, I think it fits my frame well.

you look great. great to hear the pain is subsiding
Thank you! If anyone has any other questions I'd me more than happy to answer.
Thank you so much. I am almost exactly your age, height and weight. This was very helpful. Now all I need to do is find the finances to pay for this surgery and I'll be so happy. My breasts look just like yours did and it really ruins my confidence. I breastfed both of my boys which I don't refer but I really want my breasts to reflect my age and personality. I appreciate your bravery! alahna parker

Day 3

So this morning I was sooo bloated, I felt like I gained ten pounds in water weight but I kept moving today and drank a lot of water and feel much better this evening. Also, surprisingly I think the swelling as gone down quite a bit, they are already getting soft!

they look great! Can't wait for my surgery next month I'm getting 385cc gummy bear implants myself! Are you still happy with the size you picked and what is your bra size? I'm trying to get full DD currently a 32A
I'm very happy with the size! I think any bigger may have looked overwhelming on my body. I started as a 34 B...barely. I just took my measurements and and my rib cage was 31 and across my breasts was 37 which I think technically makes me a 32 E
I tried to find an under armour sports bra yesterday. I ended up having to get a 36 DD but the cups were way too small on the 34 DD And they didn't have a cup size up from there in that band Size.
To give you a good idea on what 385 cc does, my measurements before were 31 ribcage and 33 breast now it's 31, 37
wow, they are settling so nicely, and you're only day 3 post-op! Looking great!
