One-Year Review of Breast Surgery at Deoreo Plastic Surgery

Breast surgery from 1 week to 1 year The surgery was performed at Deoreo Plastic Surgery by Director Ok Jae-jin, and the consultation was with Consultant Director Kim Se-in. Surgery date: May 17, 2025 Implant type and size Motiva Full O 375 / left 355 Original size: A Post-op size: 75D Pain I drew the short straw on pain, so I had severe pain until day 3, and aside from the pressure in my chest when straining a week later, the pain gradually disappeared starting on day 4. The heavy feeling, like a stone was sitting on me when lying down, lasted until the 2-month mark. Swelling The severe swelling lasted for about 2 weeks, then slowly went down. Around the time I passed the 2-month mark, the minor swelling also started to subside, and after 3 months it was completely gone. (From 3 months to 1 year, it did not go down any further and the breast size stayed the same.) Texture Until the 3-month mark, I had to move the breasts firmly by hand for them to come together, and they felt very firm to the touch. Starting around 6 months, they slowly began to soften, and now at 1 year, when I am not lying down, they feel soft if I touch them gently, and if I press firmly I can feel the silicone inside. When lying down, the silicone is felt a bit more strongly because of gravity. If you already have a decent amount of your own tissue, it probably would not look obvious at all. Shape From right after surgery until the 1-month mark, the shape looked odd because of swelling and separation, so I worried a lot. But now, as the tissue has relaxed, it comes together well, and because the upper chest no longer looks sunken, I chose a full Motiva implant, so even with my bra off, the shape is pretty. When lying down, for the first 3 months it looked like a bowl shape, but at 1 year it has spread out sideways and looks more natural. **Boyfriend feedback** He said that the breasts of other women who had breast surgery that he had seen before looked like bowls whether they were standing or lying down, so he had a bad preconceived notion about surgically enhanced breasts, but he said mine look pretty. He also said he could not really tell when I was lying down. Texture He said he likes that they are soft and squishy. He said that when lying down, they are softer than when sitting or standing, though not as much. Since he touches them so often, it does not seem like he is lying. -------------------------------------------------- The only thing I regret about breast surgery is that I did not do it sooner. Self-esteem is part of it, but my popularity level went up and I am treated differently wherever I go. I even tell my friends that my life is divided into before and after breast surgery. I hope everyone has a beautiful and successful surgery!
