Before <before surgery> After <after surgery> Making my breasts bigger was important, but I also thought it was important to choose a size that suited my body type, so when I went around for consultations, I went thinking it would be nice to become about a full C cup, and I told the director the same thing!
But most places, after measuring my rib cage and breast pocket size, really didn’t recommend putting in an excessive size. Throughout the consultations I kept emphasizing that a natural cleavage line and a UU shape were important to me, so maybe that’s why almost no place recommended over 350cc..
But suddenly I thought the consultations were simply being tailored to the conditions I wanted. So I decided I shouldn’t just follow the hospitals everyone else goes to, but should carefully look through reviews myself and go for consultations at places that truly matched my taste.
At this place, the cleavage looked so pretty in the reviews.. When I saw someone with a body type similar to mine before surgery develop such a pretty cleavage line, I became really curious about the consultation, so I made an appointment right away and went. The director looked at my body type and recommended an appropriate size, and that was C to full C cup!
My breasts were asymmetrical, so the left and right sizes were different, but I was told I could enlarge them to exactly the size I wanted, so I was pretty lucky.. Honestly, I don’t think breast surgery is something to decide after only a little thought, so even while going to several consultations, I had a lot of worries. But this place explained everything so thoroughly that I think my mind tilted strongly toward it that very day.
The implant used was Mentor Xtra, and the sizes were 295cc on the left and 325cc on the right. I had surgery through the transaxillary approach!
I also thought a lot about inframammary versus transaxillary incision, and the director said that when looking at my body, both would be fine. After thinking about it, I thought the armpit would be better than having a scar right under the breast, so I had it done through the transaxillary approach.
In the early stage after surgery, honestly, there was more discomfort than pain. The sudden weight in my upper body felt so unfamiliar, and since it had not been long since the surgery, I walked very carefully even when going for walks.. If I walked just a little fast, the feeling in my breasts felt really awkward
Still, I got used to that pretty quickly. Also, the place where I had surgery has patients wear a post-surgical compression bra for a month. My skin isn’t extremely sensitive, so I didn’t have pain or skin irritation because of it, but it really felt suffocating.. Even when I didn’t have breasts, underwire bras felt tight, and after my breasts got bigger, having something hold them firmly felt awkward + uncomfortable. But you get used to this too. I really felt it this time, that humans are creatures of adaptation..
It has only been one month since surgery, so honestly the breast feel has not fully softened yet, and I can’t say exactly how satisfied I am, but the sizes of both breasts, which used to be asymmetrical, match well now. It’s fascinating and nice that I get cleavage even when wearing a regular wireless cotton bra, so I plan to keep waiting it out.
They say breasts really feel different at one month, two months, three months.. at each stage. Since I researched for a long time, I’m going to carefully watch the changes in the feel and shape of my breasts.
