After 12 years of having my saline implants and 2 kids later, my implants were not what they used to be. My left implants was sagging and rippling, while my right implant shifted and was also rippling. I decided on getting silicone implants in a larger size to compliment my post baby figure.

I decided to go from 350cc saline round, textured unders to 505cc round, textured silicone unders. I was a little hesitant at first of jumping a size, but my PS gave me assurance that it truly would look and feel so much better than what I had.

My original pair of implants were inserted under my arm, and my new implants were inserted in the crease under my breast. I am just a few hours out of surgery, and I am a little sore. Though, it is not unbearable. I am able to walk around and had no problems eating. So far, this experience has been better than what I imagined.

I've seen all of your pics and I love the results. What's the advantage of textured implants? I'm planning on silicone under the muscle with the incision in the breast crease. Still a little confused about the profile and texture tho. I have mild drooping but good amount of breast tissue so I was hoping to find an implant option that doesn't involve a lift.

I've slept in 4 hour intervals since coming home. The meds definitely help. I'm on an antibiotic, Percocet, and diazepam. My breasts are super sore but they look amazing.

How is it the second time? Does it hurt as much as the first time??
August 9, 2014
it hurts but not as nearly as the first time. I was down for over a week the first time. I was up walking and even went out to eat straight from the hospital. I'm really sore, but it doesn't keep me from daily activity.

They look amazing! You must be so happy with your results. I can only hope I feel that way too when I get my revision hugs shelly xoxo

Thank u! I'm feeling way better than my first BA. And they are truly beautiful now. I'm so thankful I went with this size. I was scared they would be too big but they are sitting pretty. I'll keep u updated w my healing process.

Yep you're really looking good! Your original pics in your bikini remind me so much of how I look in my bikini. So did you go up by 150cc or 200cc. You also went hp this time? Did your surgeon do pocket work to bring your cleavage closer as well as you have the look id love. Let me know cheers Shelly x
August 10, 2014
yep. i went up 150cc in each breast. i did get high profile, so my PS had to widen my pocket to bring cleavage closer. my original implants left me with a massive gap. so, im so happy they are closer. i was concerned they may look too big but, im so happy with them.
August 10, 2014
You are very lucky he did that all for you. My original doc just wants to use.the original pocket and won't do sutures. Whereas as new doc I saw said its entirely possible. When I see yours it gives me hope. The old doc tries to tell me its me but I know he's just being freaking lazy ...he got his money and he's not that interested in doing a free revision. Makes me angry. .. you give me hope.
August 10, 2014
I'm so sorry about that. But, with the right PS, you are gonna have great results. Feel free to use my pics to show your PS of what u want. I have sientra silicone hp round textured in 505cc. You're gonna look wonderful! Keep me posted!
August 10, 2014
I would appreciate that...I was actually going to ask you if I could use your pics!!!! I will let you know how it goes. I've seen 2 docs so far and seeing my original doc on the 19th. I'm going to be bringing a very "hard to bring down" girlfriend who is going to give him the hard line instead of him usually making me cry. It will be very interesting to see what happens!

It's been one week and I'm feeling great. I've been having minimal soreness, just tenderness at my incision site. I had my post op visit yesterday and had my outer stitches cut and have been told to refrain from lifting for another 4 weeks. This drives me crazy bc I'm used to working out everyday. I am attempting light cardio on the recumbent bike today, which I was told I could. I am also going to bra shop today to see what my actual cup size is at.
