Love them , I finally feel like my body looks even 7 weeks out
$4,500
I have decided to do a implant exchange hopefully in a few months. At my 6 week he said they look great and is glad we broke up not going all the ccs I wanted because this gives my skin and pocket time to adjust. I love them even my husband says he feels bad for not letting me get them years ago. I feel very satisfied and happy with the results. if something came up and I was no longer able to do it, then so be it. The reason I am going back is because I wanted a little bit more of in between my boobs and a little bit more volume on top. I understand I am 59 and he said my chest is lengthy so mod plus and something under 300 isn't going to give me the look on going for but also my skin and pocket can't handle it in one day. I understand that there are people who go that big with the same size as me or smaller but I'm glad that I have a responsible surgeon who did that stuff me u I understand that there are people who grow that big with the same die mentions as me or smaller but I'm glad that I have a responsible surgeon who did that stuff me up. 7 weeks out at Victoria secret I was 32 d and the sales girl Who directed me to the room insisted I was a B cup well I tried it on and my nipples were spilling out . I went to Macy's n khols oh and Bali and sales girl said your a 32 or 34 b and I ended up being a 34c.

They look better
Still wish they are bigger but everyone says they looked nice :) not fake looking .. I think I deep down wanted far looking anyways i measured at the fruit of the loom outlet a 34c and I technically told the ps I wanted to be a full c. So will see wear I end up.. Only one person told me they look like b cup so far :( but she has natural double ds and honest to god she is one of those know it all. I'm haveing some major pain still on the right like ball is on top of my boob or big knot of pain on top of the implant. Top of it my 11 month old accidentally elbowed me on the right boob and as the day is going by the pain is worse and worse. I dunno yet how I feel.

Your boobs still look very tight. As the skin stretches there will be more projection. That can take up to 3 to 6 months for that to happen. I know it sucks being patient. I feel the same way! I'm 3 and a half weeks post op and my left is tighter still. You look good for 11 days post op. Plus most women say they wish they went bigger. I said that but then when I tried on bras at Victoria secret they look way bigger in a bra!

They look good to me. Just give them time to drop and fluff. I think you are just sadden from the meds and in 6 months or so you will look back at your before photos and be like wow they are MUCH bigger than what I started out with

Hang in there!! I have experienced many of the same feelings as you too. I asked for 450cc and chickened out at the last minute and went w the 400 instead. I am now kicking myself for not picking the 450! HOWEVER, my ps said he could barely fit the 400cc as it was and that he didn't think I could go any bigger at this time. But you must remember...the difference between 325 and 350 is so small (less than 2 tbs!) and you would never even be able to seethe difference anyway. I think we just have an idea in our head that a full C/small D cup is a huge breast and then when we get our boobs, we realize they don't "feel" as big once they are on your body. Some days I love my boobs, and some days I think "Damn why didn't I go bigger??" With that being said, that is the advantage to our "natural" size. If you have huge boobs, you always have huge boobs, you can't ever hide them. But at this size range, you can be more modest sometimes but you can also "dress them up" and show off cleavage when you want. It's nice to have that flexibility! In my opinion, you looks great! Very proportionate and natural. Give yourself more time to adjust. Once the muscle relaxes more, the implant will drop and fluff and you may get more forward projection thus making them appear larger. I would say my breasts were at their final size around the 4-5 month mark. Good luck and enjoy!!!

They look so perfect ... Just give them time to soften and they'll feel even better on your frame. I think he did a great job going with that size

Depression and frustration
I know I know it's not far enough out but it's breaking my heart. I want them bigger or higher. I know what he said bla bla about fitting implant in my pocket and my skin was so tight. Yes I said I wanted to be a full c. I shouldn't gone to see him one more time maybe before .. I feel like they look natural and yes they are in a sense bigger. I wanted big boobs and cleavage but I ended up with small cs and no one can tell. Too me they look saggy in my 5.9 132 body and fOur people asked me am I wearing a padded bra I'm like no I got a boob job ????????. I told him I'm disappointed in the size during my one week post op and again he explained why he did what he did. I paid 4,500 and I feel like I should be screaming with joy instead I'm like eh thare just ok. I shouldn't have to go spend another 3000 for implant exchange, of corse we can't really afford that specially with a child my husband is in the military. I said to him over and over I want to be a full c with upper cleavage or small D. Not a barely c cup and everyone thinks I'm wearing a padded bra. I'm will to pay 1100 for hospital fees but everything else it's not right I'm sorry

I completely understand. I got a lift and implants and my ps only gave me 305ccs. I was so disappointed. He told me everything urs telling u bout then i did my research, and my is did other women bigger and just told me no. So 16 months later I found a new ps and now I'm 5 days post op and now have 550cc gel. I'm do in love!! Just y advise. Go for what you want. I jus couldn't get over the size. So go for it!!!

Unless it was under 2500 we couldn't do it for awhile, I'm hoping honestly I'll change my mind but I'm also hoping for hell agree to change them and make me pay 2500 n less... Wishful thinking I shouldn't have to pay anything. He actually said I'll thinking you will be happy at six weeks and then said well your heeling I don't want to talk about going bigger til next time :/ his nurse is the one who brought up implant exchange

I agree :( i think if u have exprssed what u want u should have at least come closer. I think you just have a conservative dr... that's the hard part of this process. I went to miami and 1 dr said 450max saline. The next said 600!!! Now im back home in va and my current dr said 350. .. uuggh... soooo.. i think its about the ps comfort level.. please keep us posted. I want to know how your progress goes. Good luck

I woulda been happy with 350 to 375.. Crossing my fingers they could do where they stick the needle and they add more thing versus implant exchange but I think mine have already been fulfilled to 320 max , I mean I don't think they look small I guess but they don't look as big as what I thought

Even with larger, where your breasts naturally would fall, because you are so tall, it is unlikely you will have the cleavage that you imagined. Smaller real estate, more smush. One week post op. Stop driving yourself crazy. They look great.

I just had mine done. My PS said all he could fit was 200 cc. I'm really upset too and I spent close to 9,000! I'm definitely getting a revision in 6 months!! If you want bigger, get it. I'd rather spend extra $$$ than waste $9,000. I'm disgusted I have to do this twice just to get what I want. Good luck to you. I'll follow you.

I started as a AA (5'4" 115lbs 14bwm) and went 330. I'm a full C now and go without a bra almost always and without my swim top entirely as often as possibl!! Tee-hee and.........Yay!!!!
I even had one slip down slightly out of the pocket from pushing the envelope on size and needed a second corrective surgery to lift and re-suture the pocket from inside both :( ...... and to think I wanted even bigger than what I went with (can't even imagine how that would have turned out, yikes).
So embrace the silver lining girl! You've now got perfect fashion runway boobs! Go with it. I topless as often as possible and have a bra-burning celebration!!!!
