WORTH IT
Two years ago I got a breast augmentation at Dr. White’s office and thought that I wanted to be a much larger size than I am now . I had 505’s previously and now we went over the muscle and added 400s for a much more natural look . I’m three days post-op and the pain is minimal, and I am very happy with how much the staff has been checking on me and even Dr. White called me to doublecheck . I’m very happy with how everything went and the staff was super sweet very professional and I can’t wait to see how my results turn out in the next couple of weeks .

Well 3.5 years later, unfortunately I'm scheduled to have another breast aug after experiencing capsular contracture and double bubble in both breasts. Dr. White will be performing a capsulotomy and replacing the implants next week. I really like the size but the placement will likely need to change to help prevent these same issues in the future.

The plan:
Go from subglandular to submuscular
Mentor round high profile implant - size 375 or 400cc (he will decide day of based on the pocket).

I hate to go through this again but capsular contracture is very painful. I will post updates after surgery next week.

Well yesterday surgery went really well and the doctor ended up going under the muscle and he went with 375cc silicone high profile Mentor implants. He removed the capsules on both sides and the good news is there was no leak on the side. Phew!

The staff at Carolina Coastal Plastic Surgery is second to none!
Yesterday after I got home and slept for a couple hours Dr. White called me to check on me. Then today one of the nurses called to check on me as well and gave me her personal cell phone in case I needed her over the weekend.

My postop appointment is on Monday. I was able to take a peek at what they look like today and so far they look wonderful. The pain is truly minimal at this point I am taking all my medication but I am up and about more than I thought I would be. The most difficult thing is going from sitting to standing because gravity pulls them down and makes them hurt a little bit but it’s manageable. I’ve been raising my arms about every hour for five seconds to make sure I’m getting some movement.

I’ll post picture tomorrow. Very happy so far.
