I couldn’t wait. I went to VS to try some bras : 32C. Unlined as well as lightly lined. A far cry from before! So this is what having breasts is supposed to be like.
My assymetry (chest wall) is still there and the right side with 255 is still smaller than left with 225.
Boob greed is still there. I still want bigger even by 25. I keep looking at the gals with 250s 275 and 300.
I like the upper pole fullness but know it won’t last right? So I wonder if I will feel worse when swelling is gone .

Thank you. I'm still considering a revision to go up in size though.

Thank you for sharing your story. Mine is similar. Always felt less of a woman, even though my husband doesn't mind at all. I look in the mirror and think I look like the body of a boy .
Something about the breast and femininity that is important somehow deep in my soul! I breastfed 4 children too with determination but not great success. I dreamed of augmentation since I was 14 but it just wasn't a reality until about a month ago I decided, I'm going to have a consultation and see what they say...
Very excited, surgery booked 2 July. Haven't decided what size bust most likely 325 lite weight.
How do you feel about your implants now ? How was the post op pain ?

Hi! I fee exactly the same way!! I had 230cc Demi profile (equivalent to moderate) motiva ergonomix 2 months ago and I think I knew from day one I went too small. I am giving it time to be sure, but the swelling is gone and they are so small :-( I’m upset because I was too focused to not go too large and fake looking , that I went too small. I am still gaining courage to tel my doctor.. because I have a beautiful result with zero complications.. would it be silly risking another surgery and ruining the nice result! I’m driving myself crazy! Please keep updating, i would like to know how things go with you!! Best of luck!! Xx

Day 4

This is the first day I didn’t have to take pain meds. These are pics of being in something form fitting with surgical bra.

I’m still hoping for a revision. 255 left and 275 plus on the right. My right chest wall is super flat and it will require a larger implant for it to be seen as a breast. Many people my size it seems have successfully gone that range too. I also want to take into consideration that I might not be this petite once hormonal changes happen in my 40s.  For those who have had revisions to up size few months after surgery 1, was recovery easier?

Day 3

danceitout
Early this morning I woke up feeling super nauseous but didn’t throw up. I took the anti nausea medicine and was okay. But 3 days post op nausea? Strange.
Was super fatigued last night. Slept at 8:00 until 10:00 this morning.
Decided to get out some and hit the market. I was so much slower than usual. Crossing the street took long. But the fresh air and light activity helped with the soreness.
I’m starting to consider a revision after seeing myself in clothes today. My super flat right side is still winky considering the 255cc implant. I don’t mind upping that side to 275. And my left to 250. I’m assuming since the skin will be stretched out, the second time won’t be as hard? I will talk to the doctor at my 2nd week appointment.
Day of surgery my chest measured 36 inches which is how my hips are.
Now it’s 35. I’d like to have a 36 measurement to match.
I posted pics after my shower. The right side is still so puny.

Congrats to you! They look amazing already! I am 5’7” 115-117lbs going 255 or 240 mod and surgery is next Wed. This is my 40th bday gift to myself!!! I have told just a couple people so I hope it’s as natural looking as possibly. I’m asian (we do not typically have boobs) but I’m trusting my PS. I don’t want to regret wasting this money and effort. So far I think your results looks great and what I want mine to look like. Hope you are doing well!

Thank you! I’m considering a revision though for 250 left and 275 right. I hope your surgery goes well! This is also my early 40th birthday gift and a chance to remake myself post divorce.

I think yours look great! I love them! I don't think you need to change anything. 25cc more probably won't make a huge difference. I am leaning towards 240 but PS is leaning 255. I think I was fixated on not going over 250 but after thinking it over, 15cc isn't really much so I'm letting her decide on surgery day. I wear fitted clothing all the time and I am ok if it's not obvious in clothing. Happy early birthday to you!!
