Did I Go To Small?????? (tall) 470cc - JustBreastImplants.com Forums - Breast Augmentation, Breast Implants, and Plastic Surgeons

FLAKA · 07-05-2008, 09:41 PM

Hi I'M WONDERING IF I WENT TO SMALL...I'M 5'8 145LBS 33RC pre op 34A
I had surgery on monday...everything went greaat....but I don't know if I went to small...From the beginning the doctor suggested me a D sizee, I almost fainted when he mentioned THE "D" since I was going for a full B...I jusst wanted to have something there...that looked natural and not fake. I exercise a looot... I'm thin with no curves..I didnt want to look fat...THe doctor told me I would look good with a D and at least with a full c since I am tall...so after thinking and thinking I decided to go for the full C. I was really afraid of the D.. He used the 470cc unders...I overhead inmy sleep the doctor saying that he had to change the implant size from450cc to 470 because I was too tall or something like that....
Now that I see myself I don't think I look that biig...they look weiiird..the size looks good but I don't want them to goo less than what they are..Even the doctor told me in the initial consultation I was going to regret it....and that is what I haaave in my heaaad...
and I know is toosoon but I just cant get over it...I keep thinking....should I have gone with the D????? I Can't stop thinking about it....

i'm 5'7 and went with a full c and i think theyre perfect...if you were going with the same thing i was which is what you sound lik you wanted...something there..fill out clothes..balance your shape...c;s will be perfect

just be happy with yourself i'm sure you look fabulous..give it time too i'm 6 wks out now and im loving them more every day

jennram01 · 07-05-2008, 10:05 PM

Well I am like you kind of. I originally wanted a full C/baby D, 350cc filled to 385, but then I changed my cc's the day before surgery, and I got 420 filled to 450. They said that this should make me a D and so far I feel huge. I kind of wish I was smaller, but Im sure I will get used to it...I hope. However, your stats are similar to mine so you might end up a D too, OR maybe I will end up a C! he he that would be nice but I doubt it. All in all, I think we all wonder if we made the right decision after we do it, but I think overtime we will both be happy with our choice

Goodluck!

saraq22 · 07-05-2008, 10:22 PM

I'm 5' 9" and 118 lbs (actually, with bloating from anesthesia 125ish now) and got 450 cc unders. I'm tall too and I think after the whole dropping and fluffing they'll be muy perfecto. I would definitely trust your doctor - they usually know what would work best for our bodies despite our second guessing... Good luck in your recovery! :-)

brunettebeauty · 07-05-2008, 10:29 PM

My guess is that starting as an A and going with 470, I beleive you will be a small D. I got a small D with 390 and I started out with a AA. Just give them some time to see how they are gonna look when they drop! You will probably love them!

pink_cashmere_26@y · 07-06-2008, 01:19 AM

If you were looking for a C then I don't think you went too small. I'm 5'8", 135 lbs (140 after BA) with a 32" ribcage and I got 435cc mods. I'm right at 2 weeks PO and I can fit into EITHER a 36C or a 36D wireless VS bra. I have a feeling after I D&F and I can start wearing wired bras I will be in that D cup permanently.

Xiola · 07-06-2008, 04:28 AM

They will probably get a bit larger once things settle down and heal in there. They're under the muscle, which is compressing the implant. Once that loosens up most see a big difference in the size, shape and feel of the implant... all for the bigger and better.

SexyWS6Mama · 07-06-2008, 09:44 AM

We have nearly the same stats

Yours: 5'8 145LBS 33RC pre op 34A Except you have 470ccs=Possible Full C,baby D
Mine: 5'7 150 lbs 33RC pre op 34A, Except I got 286 cc=Full B

Except we got different cc's amount. I think you will have a full C/baby D with your amount of CC's. If I do a re-do it will be more like 425/450, so I think you 470cc's will get you that full C/baby D.

Being tall, they will look great on you. Mine are smaller, Full B, but they fit my lifestyle more!

Post some pics up!

Elledriver · 07-06-2008, 10:15 AM

BOOBIE GREED!!!!!

It's like the ultimate party that you NEVER wanted to be a part of.

You will settle in with your size.

Honestly the ONLY way to avoid boobie greed is to have gone with 800 over filled to 1000. Seriously. There is no way to avoid it.

I am at a 34DD right now (hopefully D & F will bring me down to a D!!!) and have (on VERY rare occasion) wished that I was bigger. But then every now and then I catch myself in a mirror or passing window and realize that if I went bigger I would be toppling over constanty and have to be wheeled around on a hand truck for all to see.

You will learn to love your size and I think 470 is PERFECT for someone taller with little 'curves' as you put it.

Hugs!

bruney24 · 07-06-2008, 01:42 PM

I've heard quite a few ladies say this on here and it has helped me, so now I will say it....Look back a pre-op pics. That has shut me up, lol.

angiedee · 07-06-2008, 03:24 PM

I bet you will look great -- curvy but natural.

chickie32 · 07-06-2008, 04:30 PM

hi

firstly, what you see coming straight out of surgery (which is what you are right now) is no where NEAR what you'll be seeing in the months down the road. your muscles are still tight and compressing the implant, your skin has to stetch still, and it's a *process* in healing that takes time.

for now, make sure you don't overdo yourself and rest when you feel the need to. there's much ahead and coming to you......enjoy it!

FLAKA · 07-06-2008, 06:57 PM

I feel much better now that I've read all your comments...I was going crazyyy (thinking and thinking..boobie greed!?)...but now I feel much better.

I'm so glad there is a forum like this!!!!
I'mm sooo happy!! Can't waiiit to reeecover and go backk to my normal life!!!

Oh by the way!!! I love to exercise (I do spinning, yoga, taebo, weights)
I think I will start to do some light walking next week...seriously I need to get my blood circulating since I've been at home doing not much. Does anybody exercise?? How did you get back to your normal activities??

THANNNNKSSS

Xiola · 07-07-2008, 05:10 AM

^ take it slow, you don't want to get your blood pumping TOO much. Raising your heart rate and blood pressure rushes blood to your newly operated on parts and this can increase the risk for problems such as inflamation, swelling and hematoma. After my first op I had a massive hematoma (more like massive internal bleeding) which needed emergency surgery at 11 days post-op, and I wasn't even doing THAT much. We're still quite delicate at this stage, so take it easy to be on the safe side. I'm waiting about 4-6 weeks before starting up even slowly and 8 weeks for harder workouts, but I am admittedly on the paranoid side.
