When I looked at reviews from everyone who had breast surgery, I had relatively more of my own breast tissue, so I thought about it even more. People around me tried to dissuade me, asking why I was suddenly doing this when I had lived just fine without breast surgery, but this is a life I have to live for decades more, and I wanted to live with a body shape I’m satisfied with, so I decided to have surgery!
After deciding to get breast surgery, everywhere I went, I really only noticed women’s breasts.. I’m really sorry to say this.. but I looked a lot, and women with large breasts always had nice figures too, so my desire to change like that kept growing.. In my case, I wanted to feel the implants first and then choose a clinic, so through an app, recommendations from people around me who had surgery, cafes, and so on, I narrowed the list down to three places and went. All three were decent, so I came home and worried a lot.
First, I went in thinking about Motiva implants, but Mentor Xtra and Motiva were much firmer than I expected?? They’re expensive too, and just when I was wondering whether I really needed to choose them, I touched the Smooth implant, and it was the softest. The feel against my hand and the texture? were most similar to my own skin, so I decided on Smooth. After that, I looked at reviews for the three clinics I had consultations at, and among the three, I set my surgery date at the place that did Smooth implants the most! I know I’m not supposed to write implant prices here, so I can’t write the exact amount, but it’s affordable~ I think people who may find it difficult to go up to Motiva or Mentor Xtra could definitely do well with Smooth!
People usually put in over 300 cc, but because I had my own breast tissue, to get the size I wanted, I put 275 cc on both sides. Since I had some breast volume, I thought it wouldn’t show much, so I did the inframammary fold incision! When I opened my eyes right after surgery, I was in the recovery room. More than breast pain, I remember feeling a bit cold the most.. Around the breasts, it felt like the stiffness you get when you’ve been lying down every day and then suddenly stretch one day? That was about it.
I asked a staff member, is it usually this painful? Or does it gradually get more painful? and they said if it’s this level, it’s basically painless, so I thought I had that kind of luck too. Actually, because it felt like nothing, it felt strange?.. But I could definitely feel the weight, so I was unsure.. The corrective underwear was relatively okay, but the upper band was a bit uncomfortable. I had surgery when it was hot in August, and when I wore long sleeves in September and met family for Chuseok, it was a secret surgery, so I wore loose clothes, and no one noticed. I was really relieved.
Now it’s been over two months, and the tightness of the tissue has loosened a lot too. It’s still amazing that my underwear size changed~ These days, when the new underwear I bought gets delivered, opening the package and just touching it for a while is my joy Since the implants were affordable, it wasn’t an enormous amount of money, but I’m satisfied! If I recover well like this and the shape softens more, it’ll be perfect.
