A patient four months after breast augmentation discusses her confidence boost and smooth recovery, including returning to pole dancing. Her surgeon explains the 350 cc implant used and the focus on achieving natural symmetry and shape.
I don't have to worry about wearing a bra. I can just kind of wear whatever now. I feel a lot more secure with myself. Go get boobs if you want boobs. Totally worth it. I'm getting a breast augmentation. I've been thinking about it for a while. I've always kind of struggled with like not filling into my tops as much. Even like with tube tops, I always have to wear a push-up bra. I'm very excited to like not wear a bra and have everything just look and fit really nice. You know, you go on the beach, you want to have some sexy cleavage of it, but I've never like had that as much. I've definitely been envious of like, you know, when you grow up and your boobs come in, except mine never really came in. Screw what everyone else thinks. Like, I know everyone has their own opinion. They're like, oh, like, stay natural. But like, I don't know, if you want to do what you want to do, if you want to have big boobs, like, screw it, go have big boobs.
We're doing our markings now. Marking out the midline and marking out all these things. This kind of guides us during surgery so that we have the landmarks with you standing up. Okay, sitting up right now, we have a 350 on the one side and nothing on the other side.
We do this to check for size, shape, and symmetry. The recovery went really great. I dance and I'm really active, like on the pole and stuff. I've already been able to like basically return to like my full normal schedule. I'm strong again and I feel really happy. They look really natural. I asked if they're real, so I feel like that's a pretty good sign. Everyone says they feel and look really good, and I feel really good, so that's the most important part. I was looking back at pictures the other day, I was just like, damn. I was like so flat-chested. Not that that's a bad thing. I feel like way better about myself. I feel like I can actually go out and like, I don't have to worry about wearing a bra to have them look a certain way. I can just kind of wear whatever now, and it's really helped me like mentally. I feel a lot more secure with myself. Go get boobs if you want boobs. It's totally worth it.
This is 4 months out, you guys. Nice teardrop shape. You don't see that fake rounded look at the top. The scar is healing really nicely. You can barely see that. And we're going to continue our massage, right, to close down that space. For another 2 months, our scar gel and our fish oil twice a day. So we have our body butter. This is great for little tiny little stretch marks prior to augmentation. You can start using it, but you can also use it after, especially if you notice these little pink lines. It is also great if you're pregnant or you're about to get pregnant. This body butter works by relaxing the skin so you don't get the actual stretch tearing appearance when you expand with augmentation or with pregnancy. So this stuff is really good. You start using once a day is all I need, and it'll take care of that, and it'll also help the scar a little bit too.
