Hi everyone, it’s officially 2 weeks since I have my surgery. I love having bigger boobs and it looks very natural. Looking at me it doesn’t look obvious. I no longer have to wear a compression bra and my incision is healing great. I had a couple of hiccups so I had a burn from the tape on my right boobs. At my first post op appointment my doctor gave me silver cisidine to put on it. I started having a reaction to the medication the next day. It happened while I was vacationing in Niagara Falls so I was taking Benadryl and hydrocortisone for the next couple because we came back on Friday. I had to go to the urgent care on Saturday when my lips started swelling. They gave me a steroid shot per my doctor and now I’m on prednisone until Saturday. Now I’m allergic to sulfur. I don’t have any regrets because I really like my doctor and her staff. My next appointment is in two weeks and I’m doing the massages. I love the size.

Day of treatment

I DiD It!!!!

Hi everyone, so I’m 8 hrs post-op and I don’t have any regrets. Loving the size and I love my doctor and the staff at foundation surgery center at Fort Washington. They made my procedure so easy and smooth. Dr. Pollard was a joy to have as a doctor and I’m singing her praises. She was great!!! I was very nervous going in but the staff made very comfortable and my anesthesiologist was by my side every step of the way. After being put on the operation table with the mask over my face, I didn’t remember anything until I woke up. When I first woke up I felt pain and pressure but after my body started adjusting I only felt the pressure. I didn’t have any nausea so I was able to drink ginger ale and ate peanut butter crackers and it stayed down. I kept sleeping on and off. My whole experience is definitely a thumbs up. Will definitely do it again and pick the same team especially my nurse who turned out to be a male.

So happy for you! I was totally the same about nerves, then just out like a light! Lucky no nausea, i went to pee had nurse by my side and nearly hurled because i was so dizzy! Wishing you a good recovery! Im on day 1 now too :)

Oh my sorry to hear that but I wasn’t nauseous at all and I didn’t have an appetite until later on the evening. Well keep me posted about your progress and I’ll do the same. How is your pain level?
June 20, 2018
Haha yeah to be honest i got up after like 40 mins maybe after surgery needing to pee so i was still really dizzy! Felt like i was mega drunk. I was so the same about food. I hadnt eaten since 9pm nigh before, was starving before surgery at 2pm and came out not even hungry for the rest of the day or night but forced soup and bread down me. Was crazy thirsty though.

Im retaining water though yik! Look bloated and face looks it too!!!!! Oh well i had googled it and yeah bodys defencen aint it.

My pain isnt that that bad, id say maybe a 5/10 or 6 when meds wear off, then a 4/10 when resting with them. This morning felt like bricks had been thrown at me! Hurts bad when i move though awkardly.. Kinda like a v strenuous work out happened. Ive got cocodamol and paracetomol and ibruprofuen.

Hows your pain? Curious as to how it feels if diff under the muscle as I went over!

Pre-op done

Hi everyone, so I went to my pre-op on May 30th and I'm getting 300cc smooth under muscle. I'm counting down my days to June 19th and I'm excited yet I'm also nervous. I have all my supplies for my post-op and I started taking iron pills. I stopped taking my vitamins and I have to start taking my bromelain three days before my surgery. I get to take a shower three days post-op. I won't know what time until the day before the surgery. Still can't picture myself with bigger boobs and I don't know what 300cc would look like especially on me.

300 will be perfect but definitely keep in mind that if you go under muscle you will lose about 10%....so if you like the look of 300, I would consider 325-350. Coming from someone who has 415, they are really not that big!! I totally wish I would have gone 450...lol!! :p But definitely trust your surgeon and do what they recommend to achieve the results you are looking for!! And surgery day is SUPER easy BTW!! That was the easiest out of everything thus far, you will do great!! :)
