Petite 24 Yr Old 5'5 100lbs Pre Op 32AA Cup, post op 32C/D 300cc Mod+ Silicone Implants Submuscular, Inframammary Incisions

24 years old and have always had a small figure (5'4, 100lbs) with little to no breasts. In the past few years of my life I have seriously considered getting breast implants. I looked at the average cost, what the risks were, and did some in depth research on different types of implants(silicone or saline. High, mod+, moderate or low projection), the placement (over or under the muscle), different incision locations (under the breast fold, nipple, or through the underarm), what the recovery would be like, i also read alot of other girls stories to see what its really lIke to go through. Finally decided that I was ready, this is something that would make me happier about my appearance and started saving up the money. Finding a reputable clinic near me and qualified board certified surgeon was important to me. I looked at what options I had for my location and made an appointment for consultation with the best rated clinic and surgeon in my area. During my first consultation I told the doctor I wanted big breasts with lots of cleavage and we originally decided that anywhere from 350-400cc of high profile silicone, round smooth implants over the muscle would achieve that look. I tried on the sizers and they felt so big and heavy. A few months passed and over that time I did alot more research with the new information I had after my first consultation. You learn a lot during the consult. Like how when choosing a size you can go in there asking for a c-cup but when it's all over and done with you can end up with a d-cup due to the fact the doctors work with "cc's" not cup size. After doing some more research and taking a few months to think I decided that I wanted to go for a more natural look that is proportionate to my body. So I went in for my second consult, tried on a few smaller sizes and we ended up deciding that 300cc moderate plus profile silcone under the muscle through inframammary(under the breast fold) incisions would achieve a better proportioned and not overpowering look that I desired. After my second consult with the same doctor I was ready to book my surgery and pre-op appointment. The next few weeks up to my surgery passed fairly quickly. I focused on eating healthy and practicing yoga to get in the right mind set for surgery. I had a decent sleep the night before surgery I made sure to go to bed early. Surgery day I arrived at the clinic for my scheduled arrival time. I had to wait for about 15 or so mins before I was brought into the waiting room. I was pretty nervous during this time. The ladies who came in to ask me questions and were assisting in the surgery were comforting and reassuring. I had never been put under general anesthesia before so that is what I was worried about the most at the time. The anesthesiologist came in to talk to me and answer any questions I had which really helped with my anxiety. I told them I was nervous and they gave me some lorazepam to calm down while I waited to be brought into the operating room. The surgeon came in and we went over what the plan was and marked me up. I didn't have to wait overly long, couldn't of been more than half an hour. I was brought into the OR and laid down on the table. The anesthesiologist inserted the UV and started administration of the antibiotics, anti nausea, and the anesthetic. First I could feel the coldness in my vein and then he told me to think of my happy place and before I knew it I was waking up in the recovery room. I almost forgot I even had the surgery when I woke up I was so groggy but felt good with little pain. The recovery room nurse was amazing and so caring. I was fairly nauseated after the UV was removed from my arm. That's when i started to feel like crap. The first night was definitely the worst. My surgeon doesn't give his patients the prescription until after the surgery so I had to get my helper to go to the pharmacy for me to get my antibiotics and pain meds and it was not a smooth, quick process. The clinic said the anesthetic should of been in my system and I shouldn't of needed my pain meds for 4 hours but I needed them as soon as I was in the car. My dominant side breast was riding a little higher than the other right after surgery, ans still is 5 days post op, hoping it settles over time. Other than that they look great. Perfect size for my body. I have an appointment in a week to have my stitches removed. I am pretty nervous about that but looking forward to seeing my surgeon for the first time since surgery. I will feel alot better after he takes a look at how I am healing and can answer some of my questions.

Tomorrow will be a week since the surgery and I woke up this morning feeling fairly good with only mild discomfort. I don't think I will need to take any more of my pain medication. I have noticed a small amount of bruising near my right incision and the steristrip has become red with blood and that had me a little worried but my surgeon called me back today and advised this was normal and not to worry. He also advised me to remove my steristrips today and gosh am I worried about doing that. I don't want to see my incisions yet, I hope they are healing well. My surgeon is a few hours away so it isn't convenient for me to drive in for such a small concern. I wish I lived closer so I could see him if I needed. I have my post op appointment a week from tomorrow to have my stitches removed. So I am looking forward to seeing him then. This website has been very helpful in my journey. My surgeon also advised me to start wearing an underwire bra today. I forgot to ask what the purpose of switching to an underwire bra is so I am waiting for the office to call me back so I can get that information. I haven't been professionally sized yet but I tried to do some at home measurements and came out with 32C cup which I am very happy with as that is the size I was going for. I am very happy with the appearance, shape and size of my new breasts and am eager for them to fully heal and settle into place so I can show them off a little in a nice bra or lower cut shirt. I've never had boobs so this is so exciting. The size i went with is perfectly proportionate to my body looks beautiful and not overpowering. I didnt want to take away from my other features and my surgeon did a great job and achieved the look i was going for perfectly. I am so glad I decided to go ahead with this surgery, so far I have absolutely no regrets, best investment ive made so far. I feel so much more confident about my body and cant wait for bikini season. Hoping its smooth sailing from here on out and my breasts and I continue our newfound love. :) I will post some pictures soon once I get myself into a cute bra/bikini. I didn't take too many before pictures because I hated my small breasts but now I am wishing I did so you guys could see the transformation.

My surgeon called me back today and advised that I should remove my steristrips and switch to an underwire bra. I was really nervous about removing my steristrips and actually seeing my incisions. I don't like seeing blood so it was so nerve-wracking having to remove the steristrips myself and actually see the stitches and where my skin was split open. It made me really lightheaded. I had a really hard time getting them off, they were stuck on good. Once I got them off though it wasn't quite as bad as I thought. I think I just worked myself up about it. I think my incisions actually looked good and I got over my fear for the most part. I am in the mindset that I am going to follow every instruction that my surgeon gives me, that way I have the best chance of healing properly. I also switched to an underwire bra earlier today as directed by my surgeon. I wore a 32C bra I had got before the surgery but it feels a little tight so I think I am going to get professionally sized tomorrow and buy a bra that fits a bit better. I was wanting to hold off as long as possible because it's very possible my size will change over the next few weeks as my breast settle into final position and I will have to buy more new bras that actually fit properly.
