Before <this is before surgery> After <this is after surgery!> Before <and this is before surgery too lol> After <this is after surgery!> Before surgery, I often wore 70~75A cup underwear. But back then, only the band size fit; in reality, my cup size wasn’t even an A cup.. lol It was a time when a bra didn’t feel like underwear, but just like a piece of clothing wrapped around my chest. So when I bought bras, more than the design, I only looked at whether the padding was thick.. and whether the upper breast area didn’t gape..
Anyway, my body was slim but I had no breasts, so it was a body I could never show off. I just kept thinking every day, “I want breast surgery~,” and from last summer, my thoughts gradually became firm, so I looked for a place to get cosmetic surgery.
Ah, but maybe I only knew really old prices, why is breast surgery so expensive..? lol I seriously looked into it and my willpower was completely crushed by the cost. I was drained by the forced-consultation style that’s typical of plastic surgery clinics and thought maybe I should just not do it, but once winter came, the thought of not wanting to cover my body again next summer in loose clothes became stronger, so with a stubborn mindset of just going around until I found a hospital that suited me, I kept going around more;
Then a few hospitals that felt genuinely decent came up. There are three main reasons I had surgery at this hospital:
1. In the reviews, people who were slim and had small breasts like me also changed to larger breasts 2. No excessive recommendations during consultation (they didn’t say I absolutely had to use a certain implant, and didn’t recommend a bunch of other surgeries like accessory breast liposuction besides breast surgery) 3. I could increase the size as much as I wanted
Among all the places I’d gone to, none had felt this satisfying, so I put down a deposit and left. But it was still something I needed to think carefully about, so even after paying the deposit, I thought about it for a few more weeks lol If I delayed more, winter break season would start.. (you know, it’s peak season, so appointments are harder to get, and if the director’s surgery schedule fills up, there’d be no time for me to get surgery) So I called right away, said I wanted it done by Director Kwon, and booked it.
For the implants, I got Mentor Smooth 370 cc, and the surgery was done through an inframammary incision. It was a size I could have because my breast pocket was roomy compared with my natural breast tissue, and I’m even more satisfied with the increased volume after surgery.
Honestly, at first, because breasts I didn’t have before suddenly appeared, my skin felt tight, and that heaviness when walking..? felt awkward, but now it’s been a few months since surgery, and I’ve long forgotten that level of discomfort..? lol
As time passes, I’m also newly feeling the upper fullness settle down and the tissue soften, so I’m planning to wait and see how they continue to settle. Anyway, putting the before and after together makes it very clear that the difference is big.. lol
