24 Year Old, Breast Lift with Implants, 435cc High Profile - Newcastle, AU
ORIGINAL POST
So this is my first post and I don't really know...
WORTH IT$14,000
So this is my first post and I don't really know how this works but I'm hoping to help others by documenting my journey and get advice/tips/get in touch with you ladies who have gone through or are going through the same thing.
My surgery is scheduled for May 22nd, roughly three weeks away (a day before my 24th birthday eep). I've opted for 400/450cc high profile polyurethane (furry brazilian) implants with a lollipop lift. The surgery will take roughly 3 hours and I'll be out of hospital the same day. I'm very nervous but so excited.
I'll be posting photo's throughout my journey and afterwards for anyone interested.
I would love to hear any sort of feed back from any other ladies who have had the lollipop lift and/or implants. How long until you felt normal/went back to work/excersised? What were your experiences with scarring? How much pain were you in after surgery and how long until the pain subsided? If you have an upcoming surgery like me I'd love to hear from you and hear about your experience so far :)

Before photos
I thought I should probably post some before photo's of my sad boobies before their makeover. These images were given to me by my surgeon.
The sad looking photos were taken on the day of my consult and the last three photos were generated using a fun little program called 'crisalix' (??) He typed in the implant size and my measurements. (I'm not sure if this can be done at home on your own computer?)
I have had two consultations, these images being from the first when I had planned to go for a smaller sized implant, 335cc. I have since made another visit to to doc and opted for 400cc. If all goes to plan my boobs should look like this only a cup and a half larger and slightly more even. Yay!
I am also having a touch of lipo on my left breast as it is significantly larger than my right (that's where the evening out part comes in). Doc also told me that I should expect more swelling to my left breast because of this and also told me that I will experience swelling again in both breasts, two weeks post op.
Again, I would love to hear everyone else's experiences and appreciate any sort of advice :)

Thanks for sharing your story and photos. It sounds like you're on your way in your journey. I suggest checking in your surgery date on this calendar to get support from members getting their procedures done around the same time.

Thanks! I put my surgery date in but not sure if I've done it correctly. I'm still trying to work this place out :) thanks again

Hey there, I got my lift and implants (385cc HP) on Apr 22nd so I'm in day 9 of healing. Everyone heals and tolerates surgery and pain differently nut heres my story so far. I'm no longer taking any of the meds perscribed although I'm still sore and have to take it easy. Ive been able to lift my arms over my head slowly to wash my hair since the 3rd day after surgery. My doc said no lifting for at least two weeks and take it easy for at least a month and I can resume upper body exercise 6 weeks after surgery date. I have a 6 month old so that has been the hardest for me....to not pick him up but I'm still trying to hold and cuddle as much as I can. You will definitely need help at least the first week. It feels like you have rocks on your chest but the pain is tolerable, especially if you take your meds as prescribed! I was out of it for about 3 days after and got sick from anesthesia but made it through and so glad I did it! You will be so happy and relieved after its over. Good luck and take care of yourself. Looking forward to seeing pics!

Hey! Sorry for the late response, I haven't logged in for a loooong time. Thanks so much for sharing your story. How are you feeling now? They look amazing!
Im going to mentally prepare myself to be in a heap of pain and stock up on some good DVDs and spend most of my days off (I took 10 days) rugged up in bed haha :)
I'm very nervous (especially about sleep, how did you find sleeping?) and I know I'll be freaked out by the swelling etc at first but will have to concentrate on the end result! I live with my 1 year old godson so it'll definitely be tough not being able to pick him up. Hope you're back to lots of cuddles and are feeling great :)

I was able to sleep OK because the meds knocked me out lol. I slept pretty much sitting up on the couch for the first week. It was more soreness and tightness than actual pain....more discomfort but keep up on the meds at least the first few days and you will be fine. I'm picking up my baby now and I can tell if I'm overdoing it. You're body will let you know. I'm doing well now and it was definitely worth it! Good luck and take care!!!

Today's the day!
Omg it's come around so quickly! I'm headed to the hospital at 8.30am and I am expecting to do a fair bit of waiting around before I actually go in to surgery? Nerves are through the roof but I'm so flippin' excited! Will post photos later today or tomorrow depending on how I'm feeling after the operation :)

Awesome!! Early congratulations to you! I can't wait to see your results. I've been going back and forth with the idea for a couple years myself. I also have one breast larger and was wondering if lipo on the one would be possible for symmetry prior to augmentation so your review answered that for me :D
May 22, 2015
Thank you lovely! I'm back at my accom now, all went well just feeling sore :) I'm so glad I could help! My surgeon told me to expect more swelling in my left breast (the larger of the two) but right now they're about the same in terms of swelling- they're HUGE and rock hard at the moment haha. I'll post some photo's soon and some better quality ones tomorrow. My arms are too sore for selfies tonight haha
