Hi all,
Well it's been 6 weeks since my new body arrived and finally got the green light to return to my exercise routine!! Just finished 3 miles running on the treadmill and it felt great!!! Found a really good support sports bra and "the twins" were nice and snug. What a relief to finally get back to my normal routine.

My recovery went pretty smoothly except for what I am calling "the hump" on my rightie. It seems to be still swollen on the top portion or perhaps just hasn't dropped fully.

Going back to my PS on Dec 3rd or my 2 month post op and will discuss this with him.

Also already considering a redo for two reasons:

1- He put 150cc's on left and 200cc's on right due to assymetry but I think the difference should have only been 25cc's (right is slightly larger)

2- have "Boobie Greed" real bad. Don't know what I was thinking only getting those small implants!! Was just so nervous for the surgery itself.
PS stated that they were the smallest implants he or anyone in his practice have done. But he was only doing what I wanted. Should have researched a lot more before!!!!

Anyone else here that has very small implants and if so are you happy? Thanks all!!

I had 240cc's for my first ba and I loved them until my C.C. Anyway I was a 32D with them and they looked great for the first 10+ years. I think you will enjoy them too, just relax enjoy what you have

i hope what I write is helpful.
I, like you - just wanted a small upgrade. i'm athletic and liked being smallish, just not tiny!
anyway - i did the rice test, and decided on 225.. spoke to doc. he said ok.. maybe 250. i was uncertain. finally the day of surgery i said "do what looks best, it's up to you"
when i woke up i had 300 in each. eeek.
i was terrified they'd be too big but if anything, they're just right.
ok - now here's the helpful part... i hope
i had a seroma on the right side and had to go back for him to open me up, flush me out, and sew me back up. the "surgery" was super fast - recovery was nothing like the first time (it was 5 days later)
so my point is - if you decide on a redo, you have the hard part behind you and recovering from bigger ones will probably be a breeze. that said - even 150 is great and perhaps "just right.. neither too big nor too small... for a runner
