5’2", 110lbs, 240cc/265cc Natrelle SRF & umbilical hernia repair

I wasn’t sure if I would post but given that there aren’t many posts on smaller ccs I thought I should. I’m 10 days out now and think my breast Aug turned out great! Still not super happy with the way my belly button looks but I’ve been told it will change more. The doctor also mentioned if I didn’t like the look he could numb the belly button up and remove some more extra skin. I’ll wait and see.

Anyway a little info on me. I’m 5’2 ish and about 110lbs. I have three children and breastfed all. After my second pregnancy I was left with a hernia on my belly button. It wasn’t intestinal just fat and didn’t cause pain so I chose to deal with it. I am terrified of going under. I always thought if I go under for that, I’ll have my boobs done at that time. After my third, and feeling like I should work on my body goals and fix the hernia I sought consultation with three surgeons. All in Tacoma. I won’t provide names but I will say two came across arrogant and one before even seeing my body asked if I was interested in a tummy tuck…. Mind you I’m petite and there is no skin to fold over. I think he just saw my chart and that I had a hernia and assumed “oh she’s had three kids and has a hernia she must have a lot of excess skin”. He was also the only doctor who suggested going over the muscle and poo pooed me wanting to have the incision periareolar. He said “it’s not like your a topless model” ok… anyway so two frustating consults led me back to my first. Dr. Dehghan in Tacoma. They lifted me up and made me feel good about my body as is. He’s not on real self interestingly, he prefers more word of mouth referrals. He isn’t the type to push size or give any sort of opinion. I liked that, however I was feeling a little lost about my size choice. I did a lot of research cross referencing other womens sizes and specific implant brands. I have compared so many charts and learned so much about different implants. which in the end is probably for the best!



Sorry this is so long :) long story short I chose to go with 240 left and 265 right natrelle srf full profile because I needed to even out my asymmetry. I actually almost went with moderate profile 275/295 but after looking at the chart realizing I wanted more projection went with smaller ccs which actually end up being bigger? Kinda funny. The doctor and staff told me it didn’t really matter because they actually are very close. I do think I could have even went up to 265/295 full but I am happy and think when I’m fully healed I will look natural which Is what I wanted. The first 4/5 days were rough for me. I’m not going to lie. It hurt so bad to move. I started feeling more normal at about 6 days. As of now my nipples are pretty sensitive and my right side is tighter and more sore. I’ll attach pics and try to follow up!

Two weeks and feeling good. Still tight on the right and can feel my muscle pulling/separating when I do certain movements. Really strange feeling. Nipples are super sensitive. Reminds me of nursing when your just sensitive, and clothing hurts when it rubs against them. I’ll take that over no feeing tho. Happy with my size. At first I thought oh no they are too small and I think it’s just cause initially the muscle is smushing them down. Then I I thought oh no they are too big for my body, now I’m starting to think they are perfect. I’m sure as they drop and fluff more I’ll be even more pleased. My belly button still doesn’t look great to me. I’m torn whether to ask for it to be worked on again or just stop messing with it and come to terms with the fact that I’ve had three children and it will never look how it once did. I just wanted to feel confident in a two piece this summer. I feel like the belly button can be such a focal point. I’ll have nice boobs to fill out my top but will eyes gravitate to my weird looking belly button? I know I’m being so superficial but I paid for something and just had certain expectations or hopes in mind.

I love my implants so much! I think they are the perfect size. Not too small that it wasn’t worth it but definitely something to make me feel more womanly. Ladies If you get past the first week, you’ll realize it’s so worth it! I’m not feeling sore anymore. I still have nipple sensitivity but not unbearably. They are dropping nicely and I’m starting to get more side boob which I like. Still excited for more dropping and for them to get squishy cause they are still pretty firm. My left is softer than right. Feel free to ask any questions. :)
