I am planning on 400cc mentor silicone. I'm so nervous they will end up to big. I was nice full boobs, but not huge!! Im a mother of 4 and don't want to look like a stripper! :). My ps recommend 400-450cc. After trying on sizers, I think 400 would be best. My breast width is 14. I have 4 days until the BIG day! ????

Thanks for sharing your story. Here's a video: <rs-video-player video='{"id":"16","external_id":"2940654143001","uri":"video\/how-to-make-breast-implant-rice-sizers"}'></rs-video-player> about making sizers with rice that might be helpful Have you tried wearing the sizers around for a while, or did you just try them on in the office?

I did make some rice sizers. It's still hard to imagine how they will look and feel. I tried on the sizers in office. I wish I could keep those for a week or so. Haha

Right, the rice isn't totally accurate. It's too bad most doctors don't allow the implants to get borrowed, like library books:-)

I had same surgery with same doctor on same day with you !
April 12, 2015
You must have been his morning surgery??! I'm suprised I didn't see you yesterday morning to get our bandages off. How are you feeling? What size did you go with?
April 12, 2015
I'm not happy with it. Im going to deal with Dr. He putted wrong profile implant in my boobs. It's totally not what I want.
April 12, 2015
Oh no! Sorry to hear that. Dr didn't do what you decided on before surgery?
April 12, 2015
Yeah. High profile is what I want. But now I got moderate pulse
April 12, 2015
I know I asked him about high profile but he said with my breast width they would be too narrow. Maybe after the swelling goes down they will look perfect.
April 13, 2015
That's wrong. He should do what I want not what he wants.
April 13, 2015
Hopefully you can work something out with him.
April 13, 2015

Yeah they look good! Good luck!

Thank you!! It's getting close!
April 7, 2015
I would definitely go 400 at least, I just got 350cc and had no breAst tissue and they are ok but I had gone bigger. They feel Smaller in your body than when the sizers re on.
April 7, 2015
Thank you for your input!! I keep second guessing my decision. I have a friend that went with 350 and she regrets it. Wishes she would have gone bigger. I am just hoping I get it right!!

supplements??

Daisy1944
What does everyone recommend for post surgery? I've read reviews about vitamins that help with swelling and healing. Also, what is the one thing that you would definitely recommend having for your post surgery comfort? I've never had surgery, so I'm new at this!!
