I am having my surgery 4/11/16. I started off very excited but the closer I get to my surgery date the more nervous I get. I blame the internet. I have read so much about implants, the pros and the cons. What makes me nervous the most is the autoimmune problems and/or complications that many have seemed to experience. I have read a lot of reviews with people who are perfectly fine but still some that got breast implant illness. For that reason, I decided to go with saline implants because I assumed they were safer but then I read about some people getting mold, yeast, and bacteria in their saline implants and that scares me! I don't know what to pick now. Based on your experiences, do you ladies think saline or silicone is better?

4 days post op

So I am 4 days post op and I am kind of disappointed. I wanted them to be big like DD cups but they look like C cups to me. The doctor gave me 420cc in 1 and 430cc in the other. We didn't really have much time to discuss what I really wanted and I think that's why they are not the size that I really hoped for. They're also very hard but I figure that's is due to swelling.

Remember they have to drop and fluff. Meaning the implants will settle more over time and become softer. I'm 7 days post today with 475cc HP I think I'm a large C small D. What's your height and weight? I'm 5'4 and 117 so my boobs will seem huge. But, on someone larger than me they might seem small.
April 15, 2016
yours look so nice. I love yours!! I'm 5'4 152 so I'm heavier than you. Same height. They just seem small to me. Close to the same size as I was pre op.
April 16, 2016
Well just give it some time. If you are truly unhappy then go larger. Just know they will look Fuller, larger, and softer after a few months. I think yours look great as well.

i had surgery with krau on march 25th, it was my second time around but according to how much mass you had im sure you will end up being a DD... Last year i got a lift with implants and Ary put 475 on the left and 425 on the right and i ended up being a 34DDD so i had to schedule a surgery this past month to reduce it and relift it because it was too much boob going on,,, now im not sure what size i will be hopefully a 34D and not a DD or DDD because the back pains are serious.
April 23, 2016
Maybe I will end up being a DD . But I've had my share of back pain since my surgery due to sleeping upright so I definitely understand your decision.

I LOVE UR BOOBS. UR SURGEON DOES REALLY GOOD WORK. IM LOOKING FOR A BREAST LIFT DOC & I think I found 1.
April 23, 2016
Thank you!! Yes he is really good. I would recommend going to his primary office.
April 26, 2016
So wen you request a consultation with Dr Ary Krau, you can request if you want it in his primary office or CG? Does he perform surgery in 2 places?
April 26, 2016
Sorry for all de questions but I have to ask cause I literally see EVERYONE talk about CG & wanting to go to his primary office.
April 26, 2016
do everything at his primary office hunny.....don't even ASK about the other. request primary
April 26, 2016
The CG is a horror experience even down to the lady who did my IV she stuck me atleast 5 or 6 times !!!! HOORRRRRRIIIIIBBBLLLLEEE. everything bout it
April 26, 2016
if you go to his primary office the difference is (the treatment of course) which is much better. His primary office is located in Bal Harbor. BUT if you are getting a procedure that cost you 5,500 like mine in Coral Gables Cosmetic Center then in his private facility it will cost around 7500 to 8k.... normally add 2k on top of what CG is asking you for. Not i want a nose job for instance i have a choice to go to CG and pay 5K or go to his facility and pay 7K (which is the accurate rate). So instead if you go to CG you have the same High Quality Doc but with a lower rate, but theres a whole lot of Headaches that can come with CG .

Wound Speration
ddeirApril 23, 2016
I have wound separation, splitting sutures, and what looks like to be skin necrosis above my areola. I'm so depressed. I wish I had the surgery in Michigan so that I could talk to my PS in person. My PS replies to all of my messages but its not the same. It looks so bad. I cry every time I see it. I'm washing & changing gauzes twice as day per PS instructions.

So sorry hun. I don't know much about what your experiencing but I feel your pain & hope things start to get better!
April 23, 2016
Wound separation is so common during a lift, don't be discouraged, they look so good!!
April 23, 2016
Wound separation is not uncommon in breast reduction/lift, it will heal in a few weeks & will not affect ur final results. So don't be over concerned. They look Amazing!
April 23, 2016
Thank you. I feel better knowing that. Do you think that black skin necrosis will also go away on its own?
April 24, 2016
Hey! Ok first things first I had a lift with implants on March 7th and also had wound separations and thought I was going to go nuts it takes a while for it to heal it for mine to heal more than a month so don't be discouraged and I am still healing, I thought it would never get better and that it would never heal, but it does get better and it does heal what do you use what cream? Also allow it to air out private message me
April 24, 2016
Did your wound separate before or after your paper tape was removed? I have a anchor lift and I'm 2 weeks post but still have tape in place. I'm a little concerned
April 24, 2016
Before the tape was removed. I would definitely look under the tape. I thought mine were healing fine under the tape but they were not. I wish I would've took the tape off sooner because I would've been aware of what was going on with my healing.
