"I'm Hua-Hua, and I'm 24. After having my baby and finishing breastfeeding, my breasts became noticeably flatter and my upper chest looked much emptier. I often felt my clothes just didn't fit right.
I had very little confidence during that time. I was self-conscious about my body even in front of my husband and didn't really want him to see me. Later I realized it wasn't just about my breast shape; the confidence I had in my own body was slowly disappearing..."
After breastfeeding, my breasts completely deflated
After giving birth, I went through a period of breastfeeding. When it was over, I found my breasts looked very different from before.
"I never used to think about it much, but after giving birth I kept noticing my breast shape, and clothes didn't look as good on me as they used to."
Over time, it affected more than just how I dressed. I grew less and less confident about my body.
What bothered me most was losing confidence even in front of my husband
After my breast shape changed, I found I cared about my body much more than I'd expected.
I never used to feel self-conscious with my partner, but after having the baby I'd instinctively cover up and didn't really want my husband to see me.
For me, breast augmentation wasn't simply about making my breasts bigger. I wanted to get back to a body I liked, and the ease I used to feel with my partner.
I'd had surgery abroad before; this time I wanted to stay in Taiwan
I'd previously had a nose job in Shanghai, so surgery abroad wasn't new to me.
But having been through it, I realized surgery doesn't end on the day of the operation. Recovery, follow-ups, and being able to reach the medical team quickly if something comes up all matter a lot to me.
Breast augmentation in particular needs ongoing monitoring after surgery, so this time I decided to stay in Taiwan. I wanted fuller support from the pre-op consultation through surgery and aftercare, and to feel more at ease.
I like a soft, bouncy, natural feel, so I chose Mesmo
I don't like breasts that look fake or hard. I prefer a natural look with a bit of soft bounce.
At my consultation at NAISS CLINIC, the doctor assessed my breast shape, the fullness I wanted, and the feel together, and helped me understand the differences between implant materials. In the end, Mesmo felt closest to what I wanted, so I chose it.
Once I'd fully recovered, even my husband said they feel really soft, and honestly, I was pretty happy to hear that.
From not wanting my husband to see me, to finding my confidence again
For me, the biggest change after breast augmentation isn't just that clothes look better.
I used to feel insecure about my breast shape and would even cover up in front of my partner. But once I started liking the body I saw in the mirror again, my whole mindset changed too.
I'm not only more confident in my clothes; I'm also much more relaxed and comfortable with my husband, including in intimate moments.
To me, that's the most noticeable change since the surgery.
If there are other moms like me who feel self-conscious about their breasts after having a baby and breastfeeding, it's worth going for a consultation. It's not about becoming someone else; it's about finding an approach you like and that suits you, so you can love your body again.
