415cc HP Natrelle Inspira | 32B to 32DDD | 5’5”, 120lb, 21 y/o

I wasn't planning on updating anymore but I just had my 1-year "boobie-versary" last week and put together a few more comparison pictures that I figured I might as well share. I'm just so happy with my results and how similar my doctor was able to match my wish pictures! Good luck to anyone else considering this procedure! It was the best decision I ever made!

Finally getting around to posting an update. I seriously cannot believe it has already been 9 months. The time flew so fast! And my boobs look better and better each month! I am so happy with how they have turned out. Occasionally, I ponder over whether I went a little too big, but I'd much rather be worrying about that than thinking they were too small. Overall, though, I'm very satisfied with the size I chose and I think my surgeon hit the nail right on the head with the look I was going for. I got sized for a bra at the 6-month mark and Victoria's Secret clocked me in at a 32DDD (yikes)! And Aerie put me at a 32DD. Obviously bra shopping will be a little more difficult now but honestly, I wear bralettes most of the time anyway. My healing process has gone very smoothly and now I am just working on getting rid of those scars. There have been a few things I've realized over the past few months though that I really didn't think about prior to getting surgery. I definitely don't have any regrets, but I'm going to list those things here so that anyone else who finds this post and is thinking about getting their surgery can consider these things and be a little more prepared for the post-op life.
1. Laying on your stomach sucks. I'm sure a lot of my discomfort has to do with how big I went, but if I'm not laying on a really soft bed, it's usually uncomfortable. For example, I like to lay out by the pool and tan. When I flip over onto my stomach, I usually have to put my arms up by my head to support myself or prop up on my elbows. Laying with them by my sides feels like I'm squeezing two beach balls under my chest and they feel as if they're about to pop lol (although I know they never would). Same goes for getting massages. I wanted to get a massage for my birthday but then realized there would be no way I could lay on that table and have the massage therapist press down on my back. I've heard some massage places have special pillows for large-breasted women though, so I'll have to check that out!
2. Before surgery I always assumed clothes would fit me so much better once I got my boob job. For the most part, this remains true, but because I went so big, I think it threw off my proportions a little so that I no longer match the sizes of a normal human. For example, when I'm buying bralettes or swimsuit tops, my upper body itself is a size small, but my boobs only fit into larges. So, I usually compromise and get a medium, meaning it will be a little loose around the band area, but barely covering my [RS bleep] lol. It's a bit of a struggle, but again, I'm not complaining.
3. I would recommend not wearing anything flashy for at least the first five or six months. It's hard not to think about how good you look and want to show off your new shape early on, but you'll look back at pictures of yourself a few months later and be totally embarrassed because they look SO much better now. I thought I was clear to wear low-cut tops and dresses after like 2-3 months but whenever I went out, I would get so much unwanted attention from my friends because they could easily tell they were fake. I would get things like, "Are your boobs real?" or "They're HUUUGE!!" or "Can I touch them? Wow, they're so hard." To be honest, it made me a little self-conscious about them at first and would distract me from having a fun night since I was always thinking about how they look. So do yourself a favor and swallow your eagerness for a bit until you know they are healed enough to not draw eyes for the wrong reasons. You'll thank yourself later!
Despite these minuscule issues, getting a breast augmentation was still one of the best decisions I've ever made and I'm so happy it worked out for me the way it did! I wouldn't change a thing about my experience, my choices or my outcome. These new boobies have given me the confidence I need to become a strong, happy woman. I could not be more satisfied! Thank you to everyone who took the time to comment or message me on here. It was so nice having your support throughout my journey! :)

I hit my 3 month mark 2 weeks ago and things are still going almost flawlessly. Sorry to those who have been waiting on my update! I've also been really busy with other things in my life.
But I am officially healed and couldn't be happier. I've been keeping up with the massages the best I can manage and my boobs still feel pretty hard in my opinion, but are getting softer over time! I feel no pain other than the occasional nerve pinch in certain areas around my incision site (probably just part of the healing). There weren't many changes from 2 months to 3 months, but looking back at pictures from the first week shows that they're definitely making progress!
Trying on clothes is SO much fun. I had to give away most of my bralettes, sports bras and swimsuits, but seeing yourself finally look differently in every sort of top makes shopping for new clothes not a problem. My proportions are a little out of whack (32DDD) and some things don't fit me quite the way they're supposed to, but I'm hoping that will subside with time.
I'm happy I went as big as I did, but I think it's really easy to get overexcited when picking a size and lose track of the look you're really going for. I think my boobs stand out as a very noticeable part of my body now, which I'm not complaining about, but I just don't want them to promote the wrong idea. It's totally okay and recommended to go a little bigger than you think you'd want, but just be careful not to go overboard!
I don't really have much else to say at this point, but please feel free to post any questions you may have in the comments and I will make sure to answer them!!
I'll update again at 6 months :)
