It’s day 2 after surgery with Mentor Smooth, 350 cc on both sides! Before surgery, I was originally on the thin side and about a 70AA size.. No matter what I wore, the fit of my clothes didn’t look good, and women with small breasts will relate, but when you put on a seat belt in the car, it’s so obvious that your bra is empty.. I had always been stressed about it, and before I get older, my goal was to definitely wear a bikini this summer, so I decided to have surgery.
The hospital where I had surgery was one I liked so much after going for a consultation that I booked the surgery date right away before leaving. First of all, I don’t have to wear a compression/support bra, the consultant in charge was very kind, and when I consulted with the director who performed the surgery, for some reason I just trusted him. He recommended exactly what could be done within a safe range rather than something excessive.
The uncomfortable parts after surgery were, um.. just chest pain when lying down and getting up?.. And because I had the transaxillary approach, I can’t fully raise my arms, but other than that I don’t think there’s anything particularly uncomfortable. I can eat and carry light things, haha.
The upper fullness and swelling still haven’t gone down, so they’re firm and the size doesn’t look as big as I thought it would, but they said once the upper fullness settles and the tissue softens, they’ll look bigger, so I’m going to wait and see!
