My surgery is in 2 days ???? and I'm beyond excited. Getting nervous also. I'm a small a cup going to 500cc memory gel submuscular implant. I'm hoping for a D cup. I'm 5'3" and weigh 145lbs. (I'm 25% body fat so pretty muscular build). I went to Victoria's Secret yesterday and ended up buying a 32DD and DDD bra. That's what they all recommended. But I believe there bras are made small. That would be even better if I was DD. I'm so excited for Tuesday to come! I'll be posting pictures each day of my healing process if I'm not sleeping away ????
My concerns:
-pain (I have ice packs ready to go, pain meds, and heat pack for back. I also read on here lots of pineapple juice helps with pain. I'll get that today.) What else does everyone recommend for pain
-stretch marks.
What does everyone use?
-implants dropping?!
I don't know anything about this! I didn't realize it takes time for them to drop. How long does this take?

Tomorrow is my surgery. I can't wait. Doctor calls today for a specific time. I think I have everything ready. I'm just hoping I come out with a D cup or DD. Anyone else about an a cup going to a 500cc implant?

Today is day one after my surgery. I'm tight and sore. Having more pain in my ribs than anything. BUT I'm so disappointed! They don't looks big at all! I feel like I only went from an A cup to B cup. I was hoping 500cc would lead me to at least a D. Anyone else hear about this? I mean I thought 500cc was a large implant. Even for under muscle. I'm so sad ????

I've been told that the implants have to drop and "fluff" so try not to worry about it too much just yet! Crossing my fingers for ya!

did you get smooth implants or textured?

I'm not sure actually, I found the surgeon I wanted told him the size I wanted, showed him some pics and got it done. The info card says natrelle inspira, SRX-545

I think that after they heal and drop they will get you over a D maybe a DD. Hang in there they are not even close to being done healing. Keep you head up!

Hey, I felt the exact same way. I had surgery on Thursday and when I looked at myself in the mirror I thought great, I look like I'm just wearing a push up bra and I wanted more. However, when I was cleared to take a shower and I removed my surgical bra it was a different story. These bras are not exactly the most flattering, my breasts didn't look as flat either. I only went with 375cc so I can only imagine that yours will look amazing once they're healed. It's really common in the beginning stages to question whether or not you went big enough. Happy healing!! I'll be following your journey!

For stretch marks you can probably use maderma, it helped a few of my other scars lighten up.
The implants dropping I think is different for everybody. I've heard it can take awhile. I hope not tho!
I had 545cc and a lift Dec 9th so I can't give you a really good answer for that. I hope you have a speedy recovery!
