The size was similar, but it. Now that I don't have implants, I'm like, oh, it's not supposed to be to just balls stuck on your chest, you know, I was like, and I really want to, I want to talk to this because I think a lot of women will be fearing this, like, what is it going to look like? Because I honestly didn't really know what a woman in her 40s, like a breast would even look like because the implant obviously is, is rounded on top of. I did choose to get a lift and fat transfer when I, when I went in. And I will say, and I know that your office said like, it's, I'm only six months in, but I love my breasts. I love that they're, you know, it's a natural shape for me. And you said, it's only going to get even better. And scars. I was mortified of the scars because when I had my implants, they went in through the underarm, so I didn't have any scars. But I'm going to say honestly with that. I mean, they are in my case and everyone's different. But I was just scared to death about that. And honestly, my scars are doing great. I'm doing what I. I just listen to your office and do all the things that I need to do. But when you were saying also about the process, I think at least on my journey, a lot of people will say, oh my goodness, the price is so much more. But back to my point of saying a lot of it's aesthetics, but what about investing in ourselves?
