Reassurance about size post op

I’m 5 days PO and feel like there not as big as I expected or wanted! I had 350cc so it wasn’t a small implant, I know they change over time but just can’t see how they will go any bigger!

Don’t worry Katie, it’s still very early days, everything will be tight and compressing the implant making your new boobies look smaller. Over the next few weeks they will change a lot as the skin, tissue and muscles relax and stretch and make room for the implants to properly fill out. I spent the first week or so convinced that my boobs were way too small, I was so disappointed, but by my 2 week check they had started to fill out and then they looked different and bigger week by week after that. I’m almost 6 weeks P.O. now and they’re still changing. One thing’s for sure, this recovery business takes patience! It’s a good idea to take photos every week so you can compare the changes, it’s reassuring to look back on the progress x

I had the same feelings early on, but trust me once your out of the post op bra and they start to drop and fluff your start to feel better. I had 350cc, almost 8 weeks ago. I was a 32A now I’m wearing 32E/F, my nurse told me they still need to drop and fluff more as well. Give them time 🙂

I feel the same today also 5days post op 380cc in left 415cc in right overs
Did u have overs or unders?

Thank you so much for your reply’s! Feel better now, just needed some reassurance it wasn’t always going to be like this! Feel like the days are dragging keep checking them every hour ?

@katie I had over the muscle, did you?

Yes also had overs 🙂

Angel I feel EXACTLY the same haha. Plus the gap is freaking me out, so much so I’ve been taking pics every day and seeing small improvements. If this forum is anything to go by then we don’t have anything to worry about! Apparently patience is key… It’s also annoying ?? xx

I literally unzip my bra every hour to check for a difference! ? I’ve noticed they’ve dropped a little today, I think having these dressings changed and this tape removed on Wednesday might help x

Katie and Eleni we had our surgeries the same day in Preston!! I was originally told I was having 350cc overs but on the day he changed to unders and I had 325cc in my left then 350cc in my right I was gutted when I first saw them after surgery I thought they look tiny, but I’m trusting they will drop over the next few weeks
