WORTH IT
400cc, Silicone, Mentor HP, transaxillary incision. 5'3", 128lbs. Slight concave chest making my left breast bigger than right breast.
Hope this helps. Wishing I had gone slightly bigger with 450cc instead. Overall, just happy to have bigger breasts. This is so much better than where I started from.

Do you have any more pics? What bra size is that? I'm about the same height/ weight and am debating between 400-550

hello! I haven't gone to the store to size myself yet. I'm thinking I may be a full 34c but not sure. Breasts are still dropping and it's too early to go bra shopping. I'm going to upload two more pictures. Hopefully this helps.

Hi there! Who was your doctor? I find it is super hard to find a good Transaxillary incision specialist but your scars are AMAZING! Xx

Eight days post op! Feeling so much better! Stitches were taken out on Wednesday. I'm amazed at how my incisions look, they're barely noticeable!! My doctor is pretty amazing.
Breasts are slowly dropping and are feeling a lot softer. No more breast pains. I'm getting quite used to them now and am so in love! Lol.

I'm scheduled with him too! And we have similar stats. What was your bwd he measured with you? I'm about 12-12.5 he suggested 400cc and said any more than that I can look fat. I am hoping to go bigger

I believe my bwd was around the same as yours and that's why he suggested 400cc mentor. He said, any bigger than that, then the width of the implant may be going towards my armpit. I think I should've gone a little bigger to 450cc but I trusted his judgement. Go with what you feel. Given our bwd, I think we could still go with 450cc but probably nothing more. You don't want to look top heavy. And if you have some breast tissue already, a 400cc will look great! Good luck!! :)

My surgery date is on May 26th and I am anxious/nervous. However, I am very excited for the end results. How's your recovery? and did you measure yourself?
May 12, 2015
your date is fast approaching and I'm really quite excited for you!! I purchased an underwire free bra, 34d from kohls. No sizing from any stores as of yet.

Breasts are getting better day by day. Although I think I should've gone a tad bigger. I believe once my breasts d&f, they should look great on my frame.

I'm having such a hard time deciding if I want to go bigger than 400cc. I have breast tissue according to him. How much bigger would you have chosen?
April 27, 2015
I would've chosen 450cc. I guess it's not too much of a difference from the 400cc's. The 500cc's were just way too big for me. They looked unnatural, although I did liked it. Good luck with your sizing. I know how difficult it is to choose a size.

how is your recovery process? has the swelling gone down? they look amazing and wish you a speedy recovery=)

Thanks!! Recovery is going good! Still riding high up there but ps told me to press on them to bring them down faster.
Congratulations! Hoping you'll feel a bit "bigger" once you're done healing. How has your recovery been so far? Will you eventually be sharing your doctors name?
Sounds good!
