I was sized by doing the rice test. I am 5'3 and 120 lbs. I am a fairly small person. I was given 350 cc's and its been two weeks and I feel like the ps went too big. According to the rice test I liked 10 oz's which translates into 300cc but she said she has to add some because it goes under all my skin. I think I look a size or two too big for my frame. I am also more in pain two weeks into it opposed to my first week. I know they are going to look more natural soon but I am really not happy. They have dropped some also but still look protruding and too big. Any advice??

I'm not a surgeon but I have been researching so much on and off this forum and I think it's safe to say you are still a bit swollen and healing. I hope you are happy with your results!

Thank you for your advice. I really hope so! I want to wear tank tops one day without looking like a stripper.

I'm almost your same stats and I was going to go with 350 or next a size up. Let us know how you like them after a few more weeks!

Yes I will. They are supposed to change a lot I guess.

I hear you! I'm 5'4" and ended up doing 400cc. I'm afraid the are too big but in clothes they look hardly different due to the push up bras I was wearing. Naked they seem ginormous lol. My DH says they are fine on my slender but muscular frame. I'm reserving judgement for another month or two since I know a lot changes as everything heals. Plus after a lifetime of small boobs it's gonna take some time ;) I'm starting to finally like them over the past few days BUT I'm frustrated with the major tightness esp on right side (smaller breast). I think 350cc wouldve been good size and minimal discomfort as well. But it's done so im focusing on the positives and working on helping the right breast stretch, etc. Hang in there! You aren't alone with these concerns but try to remember lots of women debate post op and usually feel better about things after 6 wks. 3 more to go ;)

Seems we are feeling the same way. Your a bit taller. Are you my height and how big is your frame ?It all depends on so much. Thank you for the information.

I'm 5"4' and 120 Pds. Slender frame but very fit and muscular lower body between teaching dance and gym classes. Well was three weeks ago haha I wear a 32-34 bra band, small to med tshirt and size 2-4 dresses. Last night I met up with old friends I had seen in ages and only two knew about my BA. I took of my hoodie and was only wearing a fitted tank top. No one said anything. In clothes I look like I did in my padded push-ups. But I was wearing a bra :) so I'm liking them more and more lol. The weird tightness is much better - nearly gone in left but the slightly smaller right will take some time. I can lay on my chest in bed - left fels normal but right feel firm because of less envelope. I'm going to lay 5 min a few times a day on the right (taking some pressure off my left with left forearm) so encourage dropping on stretching. I return to pro bellydancing this weekend - if PS gives me final ok tomorrow. I'm officially starting week 3! Improvemmts happen day to day and Im feel much more optimistic. I think I justifiable to be patient with the right side tightness - a muscle injury doesmt recover overnight. And since I was very fit - insanity classes, tabata, dance rehearsals and 4 show a weekend - my pecs had/have to really shift gears. I'm excited that past two days my right side doesn't feel so,twitchy. I swear it's dropped some too.

I know what you mean! I'm scheduled to get mine done this week (400 cc as well) and I have been afraid of the same thing- regret of going too large! Most women seem to wish they ended up going bigger so that's why I opted for 400 rather than 350. I have been wearing a bombshell VS bra since I had my son almost 7 years ago so I'm hoping it won't be super noticeable over clothing.
