I am a 33yo with no childbirths yet, slender, athletic build, 5'5", 120lbs, 34A's. With increased age plus lack of birth control, which I dropped for health/libido concerns, my boobs deflated. My husband and I wanted perky, natural-looking implants with minimal scarring. We went with Sientra brand 240cc silicone shaped/teardrop/gummy bear implants, which unfortunately don't fit via our preferred discrete armpit incision. The shaped implants went through the breast fold, under the muscle. I am now a happy 34B-C. I can easily dress them up or down. No one in my daily life noticed the enhancement, which I intended. They do not push together easily, nor do they bounce yet. But I have been able to successfully gain some cleavage with sticky push-up bras and bras that push in from the sides. That is to be expected since my boobs were originally wide-set. I'm sure they will hang and jiggle more after nursing a kid or two. If we do a surgery in the future post-births, we will probably go with round implants and 270-300cc. But as my first surgery, I am happy with the modest outcome.

P.S. As for the irregularity (see photo of the squished shape my boobs take on when I contract my pec & lat muscles), it does not affect us. I simply don't plan on working out topless :)

Very natural look, I love it <3 I am planning about same size, but round ones, as I’m a horse rider my doctor doesn’t want to put teardrops. This “if I’d do it know I would take bigger ones” makes me think about size...I want a natural look, but don’t want to regret getting too small either. How are your scars now?

Hi! I am so sorry I didn’t see this sooner! Two years post-op, my scars are very pale, hardly noticeable unless I lift up my boobs. I still apply oil to them (castor, but coconut oil or scar creams are fine) after showering. Round implants will give you more mobility, as the teardrops need to be stitched into place...at least that’s my Dr’s method. If I were to do it again, I might go the next cc size up, and I’d go with round silicon implants instead so I could squish them together and they’d bounce more lol

They look fantastic! Do you mind uploading a pic or video of the distortion when you flex your pecs? I’m really athletic and getting a BA but worried how the is affected when I use my chest muscles. Thanks in advance.

By the way, don’t worry! Long term I am very confident that the use of your chest muscles will be unaffected. I think it was worse for me at the time because I chose the shaped implants, which are stitched below the muscle. I still work out, lift weights, lift my tank of a toddler, and they act totally natural.

I need to see if it happens anymore... I will double check but I honestly don’t think it happens anymore! It had something to do with the tightness of my then-new boobs. Is the current pic of the distortion visible to you? It’s hard for me to see what other users see...

I’m still very happy with my mamajamas, as my husband lovingly calls them :)
Surgery was 3 years ago (June 2017), I had my first child in March 2019, and now in Sept 2020, I still breastfeed my 18-month-old, and love my full-B/C cups. They are much more relaxed and mobile. They bounce and squish as if they were completely natural.

Omg your results are GOALS. I'm almost 24 with no babies yet, so it's important for me to see how boobs may/may not change AFTER breastfeeding. THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS! (absolutely stunning mommy/child duo btw) :)

Somehow I missed this, sorry for the late response! My boobs are still full and bigger than they ever were naturally but they are WAY more relaxed now that I have nursed for 2 years! To the point where I have to remind myself that there’s implants in there, and I doubt anyone could guess that they’ve been augmented. I’ve had friends be so bummed about their perky little boobs disappearing after kids, so I’m glad to have done the procedure in this order, though that was not an intentional choice. (thanks for the compliment, he just gets more handsome everyday!

Usually people ask for squish videos of breast movement. Post only if comfortable. Hope that helps.

Hi, I am considering shaped implants as I am super petite too. Do you feel like they look more natural than round implants? I know that's hard to say as everyone is different but I am having such a hard time making my mind up! Your results are beautiful as it's so great to hear about how breast feeding does or doesn't impact things. xx

There are lots of studies that show that doctors AND patients, when looking at a picture of a woman with implants, cannot correctly distinguish if the implant is round or teardrop shaped. I would talk to your doctor about it and see what they recommend and go with that. A lot of doctors don't like shaped implants because they are textured and there is a small chance of getting a rare cancer from it. Shaped implants also have a tendency to rotate in the pocket if the pocket is not cut perfectly to fit the implant and it looks weird. Round implants on the other hand, if they rotate it's not a problem and you can't tell because they're round. Usually shaped implants are used for breast reconstruction for people who have had trauma to the area or cancer.

Hi! Thanks for the comment, and I’m SO sorry this reply is so delayed! Yes, nursing for 2 years now only relaxed my boobs a lot. They are still full, and brighter than they ever were naturally, but they look totally natural, and I often forget I have implants, lol.
Shaped vs Round, my recommendation is based on how tall you are. If I were any shorter, I think I would have been happier with round. But I am 5’5” slender athletic build so my size or taller are the only body types that might consider shaped. After some time, it seems like a tall slender woman with round implants would want/need a lift before a tall slender woman with shaped implants would. My long torso is why I decided shaped would give me better proportions.

I’m glad they act so naturally, and that there’s still more projection off my chest than they were naturally. And although my natural skin/breast squishes together easily, the implant below them does not, since I got teardrop shaped silicone which were stitched into place under the muscle.

Gorgeous breasts. Perfect size. I can’t stand those crazy monster breasts everyone seems to get. Bigger is not better it looks so fake. Yours look natural and great. Doc did a great job. I can’t believe they still look so good after nursing. After I nursed the 2nd kid my breast tissue began to slid off the implant so had to get a breast lift.

Thank you!! What kind of implants did you have and was it over or under the muscle?
