I asked for 475cc-500cc and wanted larger if he could fit the implant in. Dr said ok and after surgery he said he went with an even SMALLER implant and said if I don't like the size I'm welcome to schedule another surgery in the future to have larger implants put in because my skin will be stretched! It's like WTF! I dont have money to just say ok! I'll come back to go bigger . Today is post op 1-2 day and they look crazy small! And this is when they should look largest due to swelling. So I'm freaking out because they are going to be crazy small and I waited 15 years for this . Anyone experience their breasts getting bigger after swelling.

How are they settling now? Found mine got bigger after a couple of weeks but now feel smaller! What size/profile did you get?

450cc HP (which I did NOT choose, the dr made that choice during surgery, even after I asked over the phone, through email and in person for 500cc or bigger) I'm so incredibly disspointed that I'm currently in tears as I type this reply. Because when I think about it and how much money I spent and how long I waited for this surgery. I'm the idiot that now has to wait to fully heal so I can go bra shopping to find a new PADDED bra. Which is so sad cause I never wanted to own another padded bra . Sorry I'm venting

So sorry you are feeling so distressed. Are they not looking or feeling near the size you'd hoped? I as I say have 450 and had imagined a size it would create. I loor large without clothes from the front but they are not a full large breast like I'd hoped...looking at more reviews I think 500/550 HP would have gotten me closer to my goal. It is disheartening I agree as we build ourselves up and spend a lot of money to achieve a look....I can't afford to go through it again so am trying to be patient and let them settle. Its crazy that we get anxious before surgery on how the size will look but I think sizers are not realistic and of I'd known that I would have felt more comfortable upping my size. Why did you surgeon not go bigger?

I couldn't agree more!
He said 450 was as big as he could go with my chest size. I just don't know if I believe that. I know he is the professional, however I feel irritated by his decision because I have a coworker who went to him and got much larger implants and her frame is MUCH smaller then mine, height is shorter and weight is thinner . Then right before surgery he told me, " you will do this surgery and in a year if you still want bigger you can have them done again" that made me feel like he knew how much I wanted to be big that he wanted me to go back and pay for another surgery to accomplish my desire look and will get two payments vs one with giving me what I wanted the first time around. If that makes any sense at all lol

Surgery was yesterday and they look super small and I thought they were supposed to be at their biggest after surgery and that once he swelling calms down then they will get smaller but this concerns me. Because they are super small now so what should I except after they drop!! Anyone else experienced small breasts but after the dropped did they get higher?

It is common to feel small post op as your implants need time to drop and fluff. Try not to judge your results quite yet. Some women find it helpful to take weekly pictures to see their healing progress. Feel free to share some pictures here too. Here is a forum of members who also have gotten BAs this July 2016. Looking forward to your updates!

Thank You for replying to my posts. I don't get any feedback so Thank You!! When should I freak out?! I end to VS and they said I'm a full B! This is depressing as I was a deflated b post op and refuse to settle for only a FULL B! That's not worthy the money. A push up bra could've been the answer if that's the case
