Just wondering if anyone else has experienced their BA incisions weeping? The right side always looked like it had healed much better than the left but my skin has always been itchy. I haven’t scratched anywhere near the incisions and I haven’t put any creams on them or any bubble bath or anything like that but when I took my sports bra…[Read more]

I was a small, empty 34c and had 340cc partials. I’m now 2 weeks post op and they do not seem big at all. I thought they were at first but it was mostly swelling. I kind of wish I had gone bigger! It was supposed to take me to a DD but at the moment I measure as a D. I’m a size 8 on too and 5ft 7 so bigger than you but then you are a B to…[Read more]

I had 340 partials and had the strapping off on Tuesday. I am so happy and couldn’t recommend Fratti more highly. I thought he was really nice when I met him for pre op – I liked that he was to the point and didn’t try to win me over with chit chat, as that is really the job of the PC and it made me feel confident in him.

Implants measure bigger than natural – this really confused me at first but where the implant is rounder and more full it needs a bigger cup to fit in so while you may not look or feel like an F, you will actually need this size.
