I grew up flat chested and was always thin. Even after one pregnancy, stayed flat chested. I almost had it done when I was 21, but after having a consult with a nasty PS, changed my mind and never pursued until 20 years later. My surgery was on Monday and am really swollen and do not like the results so far.
I received 325 cc unders, saline.

I think too early to tell, I am soooo swollen.. Look like frankenstein boobs. Pain is toleraable. I was so sick after procedure, but spent first night in hospital so the staff and doctor were prompt on stopping vomiting and making me comfortable. Took about 10 hours to get morphine out of my system. Thank you for asking

They soften and look more natural as time passes. It takes a few months for them to "settle in".

Thank you! My doctor was excellent and told me the look will change when swelling goes down. I'm hoping that happens soon. Last night was first full night of sleep, with Tylenol pm and body pillow.

Glad to hear that you're doing better! If you're still taking pain meds you shouldn't b driving!

How did the driving go? And what did your PS say? You're very, very early in the healing stages so you can expect a lot of changes over the next few months. Some women find it helpful to take a photo every few days. Then you can really see the gradual changes. Feel free to post any photos here...even clothed if you prefer. Happy healing and keep us posted!

I did not drive as of yet...hubby is making me wait. Still pretty swollen and wishing everyday they go down...I still feel they are too big....but everyone tells me they will change...including PS...he thinks they will be perfect...next appointment in 3 months, so hopefully everything goes well until then. I posted a before and will post after sometime today. Thank you!!

I got 300cc unders but silicone gel. My PS said it was ok to drive after day 4, but I just drove yesterday (day 6) and was pretty sore by the end of the day. I recommend limiting it if you can, especially if you're still in a lot of pain anyway. How are you feeling now? How was your 1 week post op? My surgery was Oct 23rd so I'm only a couple days behind you.

Hi bettyjeanrubble...love the name!! I have still not driven...mostly because of an overprotective hubby. I'm feeling better today...still not a lot of energy and not liking how big I am. You don't have Franken Boob....I have it so bad...you look awesome...happy for you...how are you feeling?

Everything went well. He showed me how to massage...yucky feeling...He told me I was very swollen still and that it will get softer and softer each day. He only recommends massaging for two minutes once a day. I am still so shocked when I look in the mirror and still see how big I am and again how swollen I am. I still wish I went smaller. I am going to post a before and after photo...and see what you all think. I'm still hoping to drive....if my husband would let me!!! I'm only taking Advil once a day and Advil PM at night....helps with the soreness and sleep.

The massages are really yucky at first, I agree! They're soooo much better now that my boobs aren't sore and are softer. I hope you feel better about the size when the swelling subsides. I felt much better about my size once they weren't in my throat. Do show those before and afters! Would love to see. Hope you have a great day!
