I wrote a consultation post a little while ago and many people left comments, so now I’ll share my review! I had so many concerns before surgery, and I spent every day searching online, so there were lots of posts that all seemed like ads and many reviews from people with body types different from mine. Genuine information was precious. I’m not a coordinator or a nurse; I’m writing this purely to help people who are considering surgery.
Body type before surgery Height 165, weight 64-65, underbust circumference 83.5, horizontal width of one breast 13.5, a full A cup in underwear
I have a larger torso. So to get a larger cup size, I had to use larger implants than other people.
I wanted a full C, but now that it’s done, to my eye it seems about a C. I feel a little disappointed When I wear a shirt, it still looks like a cliff lol. Once I take off the compression bra, I’ll upload photos too.
For the implants, I did 335 teardrop Allergan. Transaxillary incision, wearing a compression bra.
Entered the operating room around 9:30 a.m. I was scared, so I gave up on the surgery and came out of the OR, then after the manager comforted me, I went back in. The surgery seems to have taken about an hour and a half. I came to the recovery room around 11, got an injection, a pain-control injection, and maybe a blood-maintenance? injection, and was discharged at 1:30. I couldn’t drink water or sleep until 5, so I held out with all my strength, then at 5:10 I immediately deep-slept at home (maybe I was sleepy because I couldn’t sleep the night before, or maybe the anesthesia hadn’t fully worn off). I ate porridge at 8 and have just been lying down. When I get up, I step on the blanket with my feet, grab the blanket, and get up. If I use my abdominal strength and don’t put force into the chest area, the pain isn’t severe, but the armpit muscle pulls so much. Is this part the pectoralis major? I also feel pressure in the pit of my stomach.
They say the day of surgery hurts the most and then it gradually decreases. I think the pain is covered by painkillers. But I actually didn’t even take the medication after discharge. They told me to take Tylenol if it hurt. I was okay if I stayed still, so I didn’t take it. Going to get the medicine would hurt more Tomorrow, if I take painkillers and feel okay, I’m thinking of going to the dentist too lol. Am I being too bold? I hope hell doesn’t open tomorrow after saying this?
It was hard because I’m on mobile
