Motiva 300/320cc: 2-Month Review with Accessory Breast Lipo, C Cup Results

My Motiva Breast Aug + Accessory Breast Lipo — 2-Month Review

Why I Decided to Do This

I never really thought much about my breasts before,

but after gaining and losing weight rapidly, they just kind of deflated...

Once I started thinking about getting it done, I knew I had to go for it... lol

Surgery Date

09.13.2024...?

Surgery Method / Implant / Implant Size

Axillary incision / Motiva / 320, 300 (left, right)

*My breast base was on the bigger side, but since I wanted to focus on shape, we picked a size aiming for about a C cup.

Why I Chose UNE

I only consulted at one clinic before deciding.

They seemed really confident about their surgery time and method, which gave me a lot of trust.

The size and shape they suggested also matched what I wanted, so I made my decision pretty quickly!

My actual surgery took about 36 minutes, and honestly the lipo part hurt way more than the breast surgery itself.

I think my recovery went pretty well.

Day-by-Day Review

(Day of Surgery)

  - Felt tight and achy. I live in Jeju so I flew back the same day, but with the flight delay plus circling in the air, I ended up stuck sitting on the plane for 2 hours, which was really rough.

  - Every time the taxi went over a speed bump it hurt so much... guess I didn't get lucky with the pain management...

  - Once I got home I could still take my dog on a short walk, managed to wash my face by hunching over somehow, and slept lying flat on my back!

(Day 1)

  - Felt tight, and even eating a little made my stomach feel full and uncomfortable. My meds were 3x a day so I tried to eat all 3 meals, and since I was worried about losing muscle mass, I made sure to eat exactly 100g each of carbs/protein/veggies.

  - I hadn't figured out the trick yet, so I couldn't get up from lying down by myself...

  - Walking was possible, but I had to go really slow and easy.

  - I couldn't raise both arms at once, but raising one arm slightly was okay, so daily life wasn't too disrupted. (That said, it obviously wasn't the same as before!!!)

    Everything I did got slower and more careful, so it kind of felt like I was living life in slow motion...

  - Obviously there was a lot I couldn't do. My digestion was off too, and since the clinic said walking helps, I tried to walk often.

 (Day 2)

  - The swelling seemed to be going down since I had to adjust my upper band size (I'd marked the original size with a marker and it had gotten smaller)

  - Not sure if it's because I was adjusting, but daily life was getting easier little by little

  - My BP area was so tingly/sore... like really really sore... not sure why

  - I tried driving and regretted it (turning the wheel was so hard that I basically crept along and had to take the long way around)

  (Day 3)

  - Finally figured out the trick to getting up by myself!!!!!! (Wiggle over, drop your legs down first, then get up like a blob!!)

  - Took a quick shower... so happy about it... they said it was okay starting the next day, but 'okay' doesn't mean 'recommended,' so I cranked the AC and toughed it out.

  - Took off the compression bra and looked at myself... actually looked pretty good?.. but with the compression bra on I look like a missile lol

  - The moment I put the compression bra on it scratched so much it stung, and even with a patch on, my chest still felt sore from rubbing against clothes, so I started wearing a t-shirt underneath!

 (Day 4)

  - The spot I scratched started bleeding, total mess...

  - Tried driving again, it was better than before but long distances were still a no-go ^^

  - Could lift things with some weight without much trouble. My traps were super tense... did some slow stretching by myself!

  - Humans really are creatures of adaptation... so wild... I'm getting used to it ,,,,,,

2-Month Review

 - If you're on the fence about it, just do it... seriously, just do it...

   My clothes seriously fit differently now, and when I put on a regular bra to take pictures for the first time in a while, it looked even better.
