Okay well I’ve been meaning to write a long post for days but the truth is I’ve been on the biggest emotional roller coaster ever since coming out of surgery! Has anyone else felt really down? One minute I’m feeling really sad and disappointed the next I’m thinking ‘Clarissa get your shit together you look amazing!’ haha!! Please say this is the same process for everyone….or at least some people?
Okay, so I made the decision back in Feb to go with MYA after wanting a boob job for years! I felt the time was right and I’d heard many great reviews about MYA! 🙂 I had amazing service from Krystina at the Cardiff Clinic and after meeting Dr. Fiumara I was sure I was choosing her. She has a warm personality and she’s very clear. She was the first surgeon I met and didn’t feel it was necessary to meet another. She told me 400cc was what she recommended and felt any larger would not be a good idea because I have young skin and didn’t want any stretch marks developing or any complications. I was a 36A – Trying on the 400cc I was not satisfied. The problem is I am size 12… I dont have a flat toned belly, I do have a few extra pounds around my middle. The whole point of me having my boob job was to even out my curves… I wanted better shape with my bust and belly. Nothing worse than feeling your belly sticks out more than boobs… know what I mean? So whilst trying on the 400cc I might have achieved the nice sized boobs most size 8/10 women want it was not enough for my figure 🙁 … so I managed to push for 500ccs. I still didn’t feel it was enough but like Dr.Fiumara said I didn’t want any stretch marks or complications. So I took the advice and chose 500cc – which I was told would sure take me to at least a D upwards.
April 6th – I had my surgery in London Fitzroy. Amazing experience can not fault the whole over night stay. The staff at the hospital were fantastic and it was brilliant! I felt reassured every step of the way – Dr.Fiumara was excellent. I woke up feeling emotional but I guess its to be expected. I could see my results briefly before I changed into my sports bra and I thought “…finally I have boobs! ”
I got home the following day and I was in quite a lot of pain on the sides of my boobs… felt like intense burning!! For the first 4 days I stayed in bed walking around the house as much as I could but sleeping a lot.
Six days post op – Well, today I was at ease enough to remove my sportbra by myself and only today I’ve managed to truly take in my new boobs. I’ve looked in the mirror taken a few pictures. I know they say your boobs change so much for weeks after your surgery but today I did think to myself I dont really feel they are the size I wanted to balance out my figure. With many frames 500cc would look way too big especially if you were starting off from a C cup and your a size 8/10. The thing is I started at 36A , size 12…. I feel my boobs will be a big C possibly D… but still looking at them they look very natural and all my family and friends have said ‘You could get away with saying you haven’t had a boob job’ – now that could be taken as a compliment but I didn’t pay over 5 thousand pound for the natural unnoticed change in my boobs look. So yes… I feel disappointed BUT maybe this is just my emotions running high after the surgery. I’m not saying I don’t like the result – I’ve had the best experience ever with MYA and would strongly recommend MYA and Dr. Linda Fiumara… I’m just saying its not what I imagined.
I’d really appreciate any advice and comments on my results…. 🙂 xxxx
Oh my gosh darling do NOT panic!!! They look fantastic and they will only grow in size. They are sitting very high up you can tell, and you are so early! I’m really early on too and hve been unhappy with my size too. You can tell they’re big from your side profile pic! They will look great. They always start off as a funny small shape at first. It’s so easy to be disappointed I have been the same with mine so I totally know where you are coming from. I’m so glad you managed to push for the 500cc! My biggest regret is not trying to push bigger for 350cc I just took it and really regret not being assertive and telling them 350 was not enough I need bigger! Your boobs look an amazing size and once they’ve started to drop the outcome will be amazing xxxxc
Thank you so much! It really means a lot to me! 🙂 Having reassurance is making me feel so much better and knowing I am not alone on this roller coaster ride of emotions! I’m sure in a few weeks we will both feel so much better! I think you are right its way too soon to feel disappointed. I’m sure a lot of changes will happen before the final result! Our implants do have to settle and the implants are probably sitting very high whilst our body gets used to them! 🙂 I’m sure yours look FAB as well! 😀 We’ll get through this little blip of worry soon! – 🙂 xxxxx
You’re only 6days and they look good already ! They will defo get bigger and give it time Hun xx
I totally know how you feel I felt so down last night about them and just thought I’ve paid all this money for them to be so small?!? And in the back of my head I know they’ll get bigger once the implant drops but it’s hard to not beat yourself up over it isn’t it. Just think this strange implant jus just been shoved in your body out of nowhere! Your body is just guna tense up! Once everything relaxes a little and it starts to drop they’ll fluff out and make them so big and bouncy it will be so worth it. They’re a fantastic size and they’re going to be amazing! Keep focussing on the positives you have finally had a boob job and every day is a step closer to having those perfect boobs you wanted so badly that made you get thisdone in the first place. You will be so happy 500cc will be a really nice size for your shape and WILL be big! Xxxxxxx
Thank you both! 🙂 Yeah I am absolutely the same! Same thoughts have been running through my mind. How long since you had your surgery? I guess its a very long process… I know its silly of me to have wanted the final result within a week. Its hard to describe the emotional journey ! You are totally right… keeping positive!
They look amazing Hun! I think they really suit your body! Like the other girls have said it’s still so early you’ll be surprised how much they change over the next few weeks! I could see changes with my 1 and 5 day post op pics! Did you have unders? I sometimes wish I’d of pushed for bigger and not just took what was offered but then try and remind myself that I originally never wanted huge boobs just bigger then what I had! Think this forum definitely doesn’t help with boob greed haha you’ll feel so much different though in a few weeks 🙂 xx
I’m the same height and weight as you and I had 400/425 cc 2 weeks ago with Dr Fiumara. I was feeling exactly the same as you at the beginning of the week, all my swelling had gone and they just looked quite small. I was thinking I definitely should of pushed for a bigger size. Then I had a bath lastnight and they look as though they’ve gone bigger and i loved them again! I think our emotions are just all over the place after surgery haha I’m sure they’ll Change loads over the next few weeks and you’ll feel completely different, so try not to worry 🙂 xx
Thank you both!! Yeah I’m going to keep positive and be hopeful for the next few weeks. I’ve got my appointment with the nurse today in Cardiff… I think I’ll feel so much better once I can have a proper bath! Had really intense burning last night I’m finding that worse than the pain I had straight after surgery! Feels like my skin is on fire!! Can not wait for that to calm down!!! Thanks girls it means the world to me!xx
