57 Year Old, 3 Children, Breast Augmentation
Like many, I too have had a life-long complex...
Size Matters! My thoughts on BA three months after
I have no regrets at all about going ahead with this very important & personal decision. However, if somebody out there reads this review. I hope this will help them in some ways.
First, do not wait till you are 57 to get breast implants. Do it sooner. I look much younger than my physical age, but oh, how I wish I had the guts to do this 20 years ago after I was done having kids.
Secondly, go a little bigger. I read this again and again on many reviews but was still chicken about the world knowing I got breast implants. But, no review told me that I could always downplay my assets by perhaps wearing a sports bra or a bra without any lining at all. Breasts do not look so huge as they do in pictures that we all see here. My concern was that my college going son who lives with me should never find out. Of course he wouldn't have even if I had gone slightly bigger. So, to all girlfriends out there, this is my one regret that I should have not mumbled my consent but spoken clearly when my PS said that he was going to use 300cc on me which would give a nice C cup. I didn't know any better. I do feel that after spending a good chunk of money, going thru some painful days & nights of recovery I should have had zero regret about anything at all.
My bra size has changed from a B to C cup but in order to give some shape to clothes, I still need to wear lightly padded bras :(
Having said all this, I do want to give credit to my doctor for doing a neat job. I did call him an artist in my review and I stand by that. The surgery went well and the scars are small and barely visible. I have been applying Mederma Advanced scar gel every night religiously.
My recovery is going normally, touch wood. The nipples and lower part of both breasts are still sensitive though. Frankly, I don't know how it will feel if someone fondled them, lol! I haven't met my boyfriend in almost six months since he's out of country, which turned out to be in my favor. It gave me time to heal my body. I feel some more time is needed for breasts to feel fully pain free.
It's been little over three months since my breast augmentation. I have been to couple of follow-up appointments and doctor is pleased with everything going well. Nobody knows or notice any change in me (except my two daughters who are my best friends & someone had to know of course)
I am hoping for an uneventful rest of my life where breast implants are concerned and I wish the same for all women out there who have taken this decision to enhance their bodies. Hey, we only have one life to live!
Good health & best wishes!
