I am 27 years old . I just feel like it's time for me to be happy and do what I always want to do for myself . I started look for top plastic surgery around my place . I found la jolla plastic surgery center , I honestly didn't do a lot of research . I just know that it's the best in San Diego . So I called them for consultation and with any doctor that available . I'm in such a rush . When I want something , I want it now !!!! So I went for consultation , I feel so comfortable with the doctor , he has a good manner , and good sense of humors . He picked the size for me and tried to get the best natural look as he can . So we decided to go with the silicone gummy bear , smooth circle , 310cc , moderate plus , under the muscle ! I made my decision the next day for surgery in the next 2 weeks . I paid it all cashes so I can get 3% off ! Luis is very nice and helpful . I love her , she could tell you a lot of thing about payment method. The surgery went very well . I woke up and feeling very sore and tidiness but I can breath very well and doesn't feel heavy like other people said as an elephant sitting on u or anything !!!! After taking pain killer I feel ok , just don't move my arm and I'll be fine ! I stop taking pain killer in my 4th days . How amazing ! I don't even need tylanol . I am 5 days post off now . I just feeling kind of tired but nothing hurt , mayb a little discomfort . I can't believe It . I'm so lucky . Doctor Roark is awesome !!!! Btw I'm 27 5 feet tall ,90 pounds . 32 A to 32 full B ! I am happy with the result . I wish I could gone a bit bigger but it's not a big problem . I'm still very happy with the result !

Congratulations on your surgery! You chose a great implant size for your petite figure. What did your doctor say about the area that is swelling?

Hi benthH , The Doctor said , the swelling still happen between 1 week to 10 days , so it's nothing to be concern . I iced on it the night before I went to see him , so it almost gone in the next day already ! Thank you for checking up on me

I went to check up on my 1 week post op , everything was good , my nurse Sarah cut out some of the stitches and put a new bandage on . But I have terrible allergy to something , doctor and Sarah said I'm allergic to the bra . I was itching the whole entire breast and my shoulder , I put on cortisone and still didn't work . I had to get new bra ASAP .She prescribe me a stronger one and take Benadryl at night . It did help but still feeling itchy . The new bra I got is from target , it's very comfortable , I wish I had wore it since the first day ,but Will see how it goes Coz if I'm allergy to the anti biotic it should be everywhere ,not just the bra eara . Btw i get to massage it now , Sarah taught me to massage it by using my right hand to push my left breast up for 15 seconds and gently remove it , repeat 3 time each side and 5 days a week to avoid the capsule . I saw other girls using different method of massaging I don't know y I am different . Mayb mine already drop. I don't kno , I didn't ask her . Anw I can drive and doing stuff around the house now . But I got supper tired so easy , I fall asleep in the car , dental clinic.... Ect ! Mayb I just had my operation and that make me weak , I guess . So that's all for the update ! I would like to say this place is awesome , again and again I love my doctor roak , my nurse Sarah and Louis been really helpful and friendly . They always get to me right back whenever I have a question. And the receptionist is my favorite , she doesn't talk a lot but once u talk to her she is very funny and friendly ! I literally love everyone there !!!
