I'm writing this review as a thank you to all the real self ladies who came before me. Your reviews have been so helpful and instrumental in making my choices. I've looked at more boobie pics in the last month than a pubescent boy and I couldn't be more grateful. So here goes...
Before kids, I was a small B cup, but after nursing 4 kids I was a sorry, deflated A or even A/A cup. I liked to joke that I had pecs with nipples. Decided to get a breast aug and had 2 consults. My 2nd consult, came highly referred and has been doing this a long time. I was surprised though because he said that given my lifestyle (I love to do bootcamp style workouts), he'd recommend going over the muscle despite my petite stature. Even though I have very small breasts, he said I had enough tissue to cover the implants. I liked the pros of going over...no distortion, easier recovery, more natural breast movement etc that I decided to trust him and go with the subglandular approach. After doing the Vectra 3D imaging, I decided on Natrelle 295 round soft touch implant- in between the traditional gel and the super cohesive gel implants. He said I would probably be fine doing just the regular gel but I was worried about any potential rippling so decided to go with the slightly firmer option...the soft touch.
I am now 2 days out and I couldn't be happier. The day of surgery was really rough. I had a lot of vomiting and nausea and LOTS of pressure, but by the end of yesterday- 1 day out, I was already feeling much better. This morning I woke up with no pain, only a little tightness, and was able to go about caring for my kids and driving to Target without any pain meds...not even motrin or tylenol. So, I can definitely attest to the recovery being very doable with over the muscle.
At this point they are really round and hard. I'm hoping with time they'll look a little more natural. Also, my right boob is wonkier than my left. Again, hoping time will take care of that. It's crazy to have boobs after so many years of being a board with nipples.

I think you got a beautiful result!! I just got my BA yesterday afternoon, also subglandular. I got Natrelle Inspira Soft Touch in Moderate profile, 345ccs. I will post updates and pics soon. Can I ask which profile you chose? Are they x-full or full? I like the shape you achieved while staying very natural looking.

Thank you! I also got the moderate profile. They've dropped some since my last pics. I will update them tonight. I'm kinda wishing I had gone up about 50 ccs because they really disappear underneath clothing, so I'll be curious to see what yours look like.

I think (and hope) the result will be similar. You are a lot tinier than I am. I am 5’4” and weigh about 135. I will post pics when I’m feeling a bit better and I can actually take my wrap off and stand long enough to take some pics. I want expecting this time around to be so rough but there was a lot of scar tissue that needed to be removed and I think that’s what hurts so much.

One week out and I've pretty much resumed normal life except for some thing things like exercising or sleeping on my tummy. Skin is still feeling kinda tight and I've started to regain sensation in the lower portion of my breasts and nipples. I was REALLY bloated for the first 5 days which was troublesome but as soon as my BMs came back...right around that 5 day mark, that all subsided, which was a huge relief.
I've been hit with the dreaded boob greed. It's funny because before my augmentation my concern was going to big. But now that I have them, I do wish I'd gone up maybe 50 ccs. They look big when I don't have clothes on but underneath clothes, they look just like when I wore my padded bras.
My other concern is how different the two breasts look. I'm really happy with my left breast but my right breast still seems really high and almost a different shape than my left. Also, it seems smaller than my left. It's hard though because the bruising is so distracting.
I have my post op on Mon though, so I'll definitely be asking him about all this.

Sorry you are having second thoughts about size! I think they look like a perfect size that you can play up or down deciding how you feel and on the plus side, maybe you won’t need to buy an entire new wardrobe :) I actually think you look very busty in your tank top photos and no one would ever think you were on the small side! I finally posted an after pic and update on my page if you want to see. My results actually look a bit smaller than yours I think, and mine are 345cc Moderate, but I have a bigger frame and weigh considerably than you do.

It will take at least 6-8 months for them to fully drop. I had 425cc gummy under and went from a B to D.

I have some concealer covering the bruising. Still looking pretty uneven to me though. I have my post op tomorrow though so I'll be asking him about it.
