Sad and disappointed.
$6,200
I went in for bra fitting this last week. The results without a bra are bad and make me feel very self conscious about my body. I don't want my husband to see me unclothed bc of the snoopy deformity on one side and double bubble on the other. I was even more upset at the bra fitting bc the surgeon said he thought I would be a full C based on measurements. At Victoria's Secret, I was 32 DDD and at a lingerie fitting I as a 32 DDDD. Hence I cannot find a swimsuit that looks cute. My bras a enormous. I'm overall very disappointed.

Post op day 18 -- Changed Impression
Post-operative visit on post-op day 18. Tape fully removed. Discussed elevated left breast - will just take time, Singulair and banding. Patient care and interactions were excellent - it is possible that my jaded perspective was influenced by post-operative pain and lack of sleep. The RN was attentive and apologized that she made me feel like my concerns weren't heard. I will change my comments about rapid recovery. I DO think I recovered more rapidly than most BAs. However, rapid-recovery doesn't mean pain-free so I would caution anyone considering the procedure to expect as much. Am still somewhat uncertain about the Sientra's but time will tell. However, the explanation, planning and thought put into today's visit have definitely changed my perspective on this practice.

Post op day 17
POD17. Right implant has dropped but left has not - either a frankenboob that will go away or a waterfall deformity. Am regretting going with the Sientra textured bc I suspect smooth would drop more easily. Will see what happens at post op visit tomorrow.
