Breast augmentation before and after — real patient review | UNE Plastic Surgery

I\'m finally writing my breast surgery review! ㅠㅠ

 

I\'m heading into my third week now!

 

I went with Mentor Xtra—left 350cc, right 330cc!

 

The first week felt constantly tight and firm because of swelling,

 

but by week three, most of the swelling has gone down,

 

and I can feel some natural sensation returning!

 

I had my follow-up with the surgeon, and he said things will keep improving!

 

I\'ve been an A-cup my whole life...my chest was always something I worried about,

 

so I made the decision and went straight into surgery!

 

I had my procedure with Dr. Kim Uigeon at UNE Plastic Surgery,

 

and true to his reputation, everything was perfect—the recovery, the pain level, the size—everything ㅠㅠ

 

Before surgery I was literally just an A-cup...

 

my bra would just sit there. During the consultation, I told Dr. Kim my preferred size and style,

 

and he said I\'d get a D-cup to full C-cup, so I went ahead... ㅎㅎ

 

Right after surgery there was some pain,

 

but after about 20 minutes in recovery I felt completely fine. That same day I didn\'t even eat—I went out for tteokbokki instead ㅠㅠ

 

I was worried since my job doesn\'t allow much time off,

 

but the recovery was so good I was back at work after just two days!

 

Now I\'m so happy with the size ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

 

I was worried that without much natural volume to begin with, things might look awkward,

 

but the size and shape came out so beautifully that even my friends said my breasts look natural and pretty ㅠㅠ

 

If I were born again as an A-cup, I think I\'d get the surgery again!

 

Now at three weeks, my breasts started out looking a bit "rocket-like," but seeing them settle and look more natural is so rewarding ㅠㅠ

 

Once I\'m further along and things settle even more, I\'ll leave another update!
