As many of you, I've been dreaming about this day...

WORTH IT$5,000
As many of you, I've been dreaming about this day to come, when I'll be able to wear those summer sexy tshirts braless. By nature, i have a pretty "straight" kind of figure, and i was hoping these implants would bring up more feminism and shape.
I bounced a lot between the Mentor textured teardrop implant and the smooth round of the same brand. I finally decided to go for the round smooth one, after reading several doctors' opinions on the textured teardrop ones.
My surgeon proposed 350cc or 375cc, due to my lack of tissue. I got 350cc of the round smooth moderate plus implants.
I am in my 3rd day post surgery now and Im afraid I do not see what was expected.
I see them very flat, pointy and wide apart from each other. Also their size barely changed..! Please tell me, did any of you have the same weird aspect at first, and then changed in time? I just refuse to believe I went through this pain and inconvenience and gave up gym for 6 weeks for ...such an unsatisfying result. I had an amazing surgeon, very cooperant and helpful. I totally blame myself for not insisting on a bigger size and maybe i also chose the wrong implants.

I totally lost control over myself with this boob GREED (yes, capitals!). I read abt it before having my surgery in other reviews but never though it will happen to me.
I should have listened to my doctor's opinion and gotten the HP instead of the M+, that way i could have benefit of a slightly bigger size option, maybe not considerably larger but the thought i could have gone bigger and didnt is simply destroying every drop of joy i have.
If I could reverse time I would go to my doctor and instead of "i want a modest natural look" i'd say "even if you have to push it with your foot, i want my DD in!" :)

I think you look great! You seem to have a tiny frame and any larger probably wouldn't look natural. I think most of us experience the boob greed and this too shall pass. I am 9 months and got the mentor HP but only 250/275 silicone under and am about the same size 36C or 34D. Sometimes depending on what I wear they look HUGE on my tiny frame and other times they look just right. I am thankful I listened to my surgeon as he picked out the size and type for my frame that would be the prettiest and most natural. They do change. The swelling goes down and they get soft. Have patience! Good luck!
March 28, 2015
Thank you! I hope this will pass too.
What did you start with btw? Considering that 275cc got you to a C-D cup.
March 28, 2015
I think they look fabulous. In terms of being "far apart", i can't really see it but the implants are placed based on where your nipples sit. They can't change that distance
March 28, 2015
Yes, i can 100% state my surgeon did do a good job. Its perfectly identically placed both left and right, my incisions are very accurate as well. I hope they fluff with time and the firmness will go and they will get more naturally looking
March 28, 2015
They look great! I wouldn't worry to much there is still time for them to drop and change a little. Maybe when the fluff you will like them more! Good luck.
March 28, 2015
I just got mine on March 13th. So I think mine have a lot of fluffing to do still. They are still pretty hard! Having patience is so hard! But so far the results are good

Today I have 2 weeks and they dis get softer past couple of days. I hope they start looking better in time. But I would have loved a D size at least :/
March 28, 2015
I think your results are perfect and look natural. They look beautiful for only 12 days post. And the good news is they'll only get better.. So just relax and let nature do what it's gonna do!
March 31, 2015
I do notice it starts looking better, and actually nobody noticed the change (not necessarily liking this.. lol), so I assume it is pretty natural looking.
March 28, 2015
Ohmygoodness I think you look fantastic!!
March 31, 2015

I think they look awesome! Im really liking that size. They look like you were born with them.

i am 7 weeks out and I wish I didn't do it. My right is higher. It looks way different from my left. Size is the same, just two different [RS bleep]. I missed 6 weeks of the gym for this myself and I still have a hard time at gym doing the equipment. I feel like my implants are moving around. They say to give it "time"...I hate that word. I look dumb. My boyfriend can't notice it (don't know how) but I am truly bummed.
April 5, 2015
Hang in there - it does take time for them to settle. But I know how wierd it is to feel them moving - that was actually part of the problem I was having - along with some other pain and discomfort , that they did my revision for. This time I am way more nervous about recovery than before- I did everything exactly like I was told last time and am following it to a "T" again. Praying soooo hard they stay put this time! I lve them but DONT want to have to do any more surgery any time soon! (I was 9 mos post op when I got my revision)
April 6, 2015
Oh God, I am sos orry to hear that! I really hope it will get better in time. When did you start havig this moving around feeling? As soon as you started physical exercise?
April 6, 2015
felt them at first - but was told that was normal- and it got less - the right one was pretty much stopped. But then it was mid out it started being noticeable again on the left side and eventually the right side joined in ( but not as bad) I told my surgeon sometimes it would feel like it moved souch it felt like the implant "bent" it became bad in December . We tried the antiinflamatories and then muscle relaxers - but no help. I also had some pulling pain - like maybe there was muscle or tissue trapped in the scar tissue . I also had mild lateral displacement . They looked awesome ( even though I too would have liked to go bigger! ) but felt terrible. I blame weight loss over the years , age , and very thin tissue. (I'm 53). And with the lift and aug. Even though I wore a ports bra - I feel like maybe it wasn't enough suport . But hopefully the revision will fix things . ( was tempted again to go bigger - but didn't - did not want to add more weight to the equation .) they are laughing at me because I refuse to bend over( I squat) I am not bending over til they are stuck in place!!! LOL!

they look really good! I think "boob greed" is in the iv they give us! But give it time . I think we see things no one else sees because instead of seeing how great they look- like everyone around us - we are starring at them under a micro scope! When my PS showed me my before pics - it helped bring me back to reality.They were beyond perfect - from where I used to be! I keep those pics handy for when the "greed" sneaks in! Hang in there! Emotions are a little nuts at first- but give it time . I am 1 week post op revision on the girls and the emotions are no better this round- and even with knowing that with thin tissue and weight loss over the years and my age - bigger would make these issues worse the idea still entered my head- but glad I didn't listen! And I do love that my girls look better than than most of the younger women I work with! Hope this helped a little .

Thank you very much for your comment. Absolutely right, it's not letting us enjoy the beauty we have and for this we need to take a look at the pre pics every time the boob greed hits us
April 5, 2015
I think they look very proportional to the rest of your body, and are beautiful! I hope mine turn out that nice. Thinking of going with the same profile, and similar size.
April 6, 2015
I hope it goes well! I really wish best luck! I would definitely go high profile if i could turn back time.
