Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

3 WPO
Today is the day I’m allowed to take the waterproof tape off! Annoying, painful experience but got it done. Am amazed how good the incisions look. I can start applying the salve now and will have to do this twice a day from now until 8 WPO at which point I can start using the silicon tape.
Boobs are starting to soften and drop but obviously still have a long way to go. Pretty happy looking back at my pre op pics now and seeing the difference. You can see that my left side is slightly higher as the bigger implant is on that side. Also my posture is horribly warped and my left shoulder sits higher and my torso is twisted, so it looks like my nipples point in different directions but it’s really just my weird shape :P

2 weeks PO
I started back at the gym last week at 7 days PO, but at this stage am only allowed to walk on the treadmill. PS has specifically advised that we keep our heart rate below 100bpm. It’s about a moderate walk so feels very lazy when everyone is running next to me.
This week, at 14 days PO I’ve started to include isolated lower body exercises using the weights machines, so;
Seated leg extension - quads
Seated hamstrings
Inclined squats
Adductor
Abductor
I’m only using light weights and only choosing exercisers that don’t engage the core too much as ab exercises aren’t allowed for another few weeks. I think this is because whatever stitches are done internally pull at the bottom of my rib cage.
So far I’ve only put on 100g which is funny because I’ve now got an additional 540cc of silicon in my body. Seems I’ve lost a bit of muscle mass. As long as I don’t gain too much fat over the next few months leading to summer.
Boobs are *slightly* less firm now, dropping slightly but with still some tenderness on my sternum. I think they’re a little larger than why I wanted but bit late now...will just have to see how they settle down.

Mentor implant warranty
So, after surgery I was handed the serial numbers for each of the implants. Apparently they actually come with a warranty against failure but they only give you 60 days to register them online with the company.
So just a reminder for girls to do this!
Also, in Australia we have the National Breast Implant Registry which tracks failure rates, implants, explants etc of each implant type. Your PSs office should register your implants with this service. If they don’t participate in this program, there’s something not right so ask at your it’s consult :)
