WORTH IT
Well hello! Thought I’d share my story to help those searching as I found very few reviews with UHP overs. PS said that I had prominent chest muscles due to working out & overs would get me closest to my goals. Stats: 5’4”, 129 lb, size 4, athletic/active lifestyle. Posting some before pics before I call it a night.

Surgery Day & Day 1 post-op

CindyLou1430
Surgery day was filled with anxiety, as expected. Dr. Ciaravino’s staff was awesome ensuring I knew what was happening every step of the way even before I saw the inside of the surgery room. My surgery time was scheduled for 11am but they were running behind. I didn’t mind, as I was still trying to stay calm as I sat in the lobby. Took a urine pregnancy test then called back to the pre-op room where Dr. C took one last look at me to make his final decision on implant sizing. As I’ve already mentioned I got 455 cc smooth UHP Mentor implants.
After getting an IV put in I met with the anesthesiologist who was very nice & answered all of my last-minute questions. I got one more sentence out & didn’t even notice that I passed out. I woke up in recovery to extreme pressure on my chest & minor irritation from my incisions. I asked the nurse, “So when do we start??” She said, “Oh, we’re done!” Ha, I was shocked.
Well enough rambling, I’m posting some pics after I got home & some from day 1 post-op. Oh & btw, I finally figured out what you girls meant by ‘morning boob’... talk about ouch! Lol

Correction to the caption on my left boob incision pic: I meant to say there was minor bruising NOT minor scarring. Cannot edit pic once posted.

They look great so far! I am very interested in Dr. Ciaravino, may I ask how much the surgery cost in total?

Hi, thank you! Dr. Ciaravino is fabulous. I just updated my review to show the total cost-it must’ve gotten deleted accidentally. Sorry. Happy journey and please feel free to ask about anything.

Zingers are not just a snack!

CindyLou1430
Doing my fair share of research on exactly what zingers are-nothing could’ve prepared me for what it actually felt like....I got my first zinger today. I prob pushed it a little w/all that I was doing today but it still came out of nowhere just as soon as I sat down. It was
an intense 30- min but eventually it passed. Take my advice & really take advantage of this time to relax! Ha
