Cup size changes: swelling, no swelling, fluffing - JustBreastImplants.com Forums - Breast Augmentation, Breast Implants, and Plastic Surgeons

Hello Dearest Ladies!

I was just wondering how much size variation you experienced between post-op swelling, end of swelling and then D&Fing?

Basically I am wondering what I will end up with, hehe. I think I got 500CCs the other day (not sure on size) and am measuring 32DD (28" ribcage, 10" boob). I don't feel super swollen (PS prescribed mild steroids to avoid too much), but wonder what size I may end up with. Would love to keep the DD...
I have unders btw and added 500CCs (?) to an approximate A cup (once old implants were out I was probably an A)

How was it for you?

My other question is: when did your size stabilise enough for you to start buying pretty new bras? [plotting]

Thanks in advance!
Warmly,
Bloom (in full bloom indeed now! ;-) )

Gosh I know with my BA, I was fitted for a 34C bra one week post-op. About 4 mo post-op I was about a 34D...and now 8 months out I am busting out in a 34DD!

It definitely took me awhile for things to settle down but I have had CC on my rightie since about 3 wks post-op. I have my revision scheduled for March 2009 and will be going up to 450cc.

Wow 500cc! You're going to be a good size there!

Hi there,
See my stats below. I am measuring 10.3" and fit a 32DD/E, although the bands are not as tight as I would like it to be...But I'd say in the last couple of weeks my 32DD DKNY looks kinda muffin top-py (never had that problem before

)

Thanks a lot!! I guess I should wait quite a while before getting bras, hehe!

I think there may be DD potential, but I guess I'll just have to take it slow and see what size I am after 6 weeks (sports bra off), then after 6 months etc. Try not to overbuy bras in my fervent boob enthusiasm!!

Thanks!!
