25 Y/O Student, No Children (Yet), 36B - Los Angeles, CA

I wanted a balanced look. I have a muscular lower body and wide shoulders but barely any breasts. I have always felt unfeminine. I felt like puberty never happened.

I had my first consult with a PS in Beverly Hills in 2011 but was unimpressed. After that, I decided I would have to deal with my insecurity. Four years later, that insecurity never left and I was tired of hating my body. I searched through RealSelf and found Dr. Andres Taleisnik. He had great reviews, great results, and he responded quickly to my messages. I met him in December 2015 and communicated with him several times before finally having the procedure done in August 2016. That man is an artist. Fifteen days post-op and I feel and (although not completely healed) look fantastic! I finally feel like a real woman.

I can eat meals without getting nauseous! Car rides are a little better but still gotta be careful with bumps and turns. I can walk at a faster pace. My chest and abdomen are a tad swollen but barely noticeable under my baggy clothing.
I had my first post-op appointment today and Dr. Taleisnik says everything looks great.

Yesterday I had my breast augmentation with bilateral concentric mastopexy done by Dr. Andres Taleisnik. During the pre-op appointment, we agreed upon 350cc BUT Dr. Andres notified me that he'd bring other sizes into the OR because the lift would change the shape/size of my natural breast. In the end, he went with 400cc because he believed that it would give me the look I was hoping for.
After the procedure, I was very groggy and sleepy. The staff and my fiance had to help me put my clothes back on and assist me into the car. I didn't get car sick but I felt every single bump and turn. I had to take shallow breaths because it would hurt if I breathed to hard. They were NOT exaggerating when they warned me it would feel like an elephant on my chest. My fiance had to help me get out of bed. I had some chowder that night, after which I felt nauseous but was able to keep it down. It was painful to walk.
Dr. Andres called me later that night to check up on me, reminding me of my medication, and assuring me that I can always call/email if I had any concerns.
That night I woke up every hour - not necessarily from pain, mainly because I forgot to take my sleeping pill.
Now, almost 30 hours after the procedure, I can get out of bed on my own (slowly!). I had a protein shake for breakfast... but I threw it up. I had a bagel for lunch... but I threw that up too. I'm hoping I'll have better luck with dinner.
