6 Months Out and Feeling Awesome!
It's been about 6 months since my surgery, and I could not be happier with the results! I have forgotten what it was like to have small boobs -- now the impants feel like a part of me! I got 300cc silicone mod plus implants, and went from a 32B to a 32D.
I will say that it took what seemed like forever for them to D&F, so if any of you girls are concerned that yours aren't dropping, just be patient and wear your strap as long as you need to. I ended up wearing my strap for about two months. One day I woke up and it was like they dropped overnight! They have continued to drop slightly since then and they look great now.
I have a peri-areolar incision, and to the credit of my amazing surgeon, the scars are slowly but surely disappearing. I started using BioCorneum just a couple of weeks ago which has sped up the process. The scars are still visible but have faded a lot just in the past couple of weeks.
Right after the surgery I was a bit disappointed that I only ended up with 300cc implants, as I was hoping to go a little bit bigger. Now that they have dropped, though, I think they are the perfect size for me! On my frame, I think they look really natural -- if I had gone any bigger they might look too obvious. I can wear revealing tops and/or a push up bra and they look huge, but I can also hide them easily under work clothes. I think my PS understood what I wanted even better than I did and I'm so glad he chose the 300cc size!
The best advice I can give to anyone who's just starting to recover is to be patient and not freak out too much about small things. On some days I'm paranoid that one is higher than the other, or one is harder than the other, or that my scars look slightly darker than they did the day before...but inevitably all of my momentary freakouts have turned out to be unnecessary. You should call your PS anytime you have a concern, of course, but always remember that it takes a full year to heal! So just take care of yourself, be patient and let time run its course.
I will update again soon with pictures!!

Better every day
Every day they get a little bit softer and start to feel more like a part of me. I'm so glad I did this! Was back at work today and felt fine. Took some Tylenol when I got home, but otherwise got through the whole day without any pain or soreness. Yay for boobies!

Looking Good!
Congrats on your BA, your results are great! I think we are close in pre-op stats and you still got some considerable size with a smaller implant...What were your height & weight pre-op stats? Also I was wondering what profile you went with? Thanks!
Hi Blondie 23, sorry for not responding sooner! I'm 120 lbs and 5'8, and I got the mod plus profile. I have been meaning to post more pictures, they look better and more natural every day! I'm actually happy that I wound up with the smaller implants, I think they're perfect. 300ccs look small on some women but for whatever reason they work for my frame.
It's pro because you're so slender! I don't want to look busty at all so I am hoping a smaller implant will still look substantial but not too big
Probably*
