Key takeaways
Perle breast augmentation case: naturally small breasts due to genetics. After an assessment with Dr. Kuo-Chun Liao and a 3D simulation, she chose Perle implants through an incision under the breast to limit the dissection area, together with liposuction. For the first three days she found it hard to sleep lying flat; she looked fully natural after about six weeks, and the scar is being treated with scar cream and laser.

"I'm Yang-Si, I'm 29, and I work in retail. My breasts are small because of genetics, so lots of clothes didn't fit right, and as a kid classmates teased me for being flat as a washboard. I started wanting breast augmentation around 20, but my family objected and urged me to wait until after marriage and kids, so I put it off for many years. This time I didn't want to wait any longer; my life is mine to decide..."
A friend recommended NAISS CLINIC: good recovery and attentive post-op care
A friend had breast augmentation at NAISS with Dr. Kuo-Chun Liao, and she recommended it, saying she recovered very well and the clinic staff were very caring. After seeing her post-op photos and feeling the result myself, I felt I could trust them, so I came to NAISS for a consultation and decided on surgery not long into my first visit. I used the 3D simulation, and at the time it felt a bit unreal; I didn't know if it would really turn out like the simulation. After surgery it didn't feel quite as big as the simulation, but I'm very happy with the result!
Perle feels softer and more natural, and the lifetime warranty adds peace of mind
I chose Perle because friends who'd had Motiva felt quite bouncy, and I wanted a more natural, softer material. After feeling them at the clinic, I found Perle's softness falls between Motiva and smooth implants. But my research online showed smooth implants still have a higher capsular contracture rate and no warranty, so I ruled them out. Perle's lifetime warranty was another reason I chose it; it makes me feel safer.

The doctor recommended an incision under the breast for a short recovery and easy positioning
I chose an incision under the breast. I was torn between underarm and under-breast, and the doctor recommended under the breast because it needs less dissection, recovers faster and makes the implant easier to position. Some scarring is unavoidable; for now I apply scar cream diligently, and later I'll have scar laser treatment. After surgery the clinic recommended a medication to help prevent capsular contracture, and I think it really worked.
A quick six-week recovery, though sleep was hard for the first three days
When I woke up after the anesthesia wore off, I felt awful for a while: like a big rock was pressing on my chest, a little hard to breathe, and slightly nauseous. Once home, the bigger problem was that I'd also had liposuction at the same time, so I couldn't sleep well. Lying on my side pressed on the liposuction incisions, and lying on my back made my chest feel heavy, so for the first three days I mostly slept propped up. That was my only issue; there were no other recovery problems, and after about 1.5 months they looked and felt completely natural.

Thrilled after surgery! A wardrobe overhaul and more heads turning
I'm 3 months post-op and my satisfaction is 9.5; I took off 0.5 because the scar hasn't faded yet, hahaha. Since my breast augmentation my style has completely changed. I used to wear loose, oversized clothes, and now I've bought 20 or 30 camisoles and thrown out a whole bag of old clothes. A complete wardrobe overhaul! Now that I can pull off more fitted, revealing clothes, I turn noticeably more heads when I'm out~ I feel I shouldn't have hesitated so long; it feels like I did it a bit late. So if you're thinking about breast augmentation and you want it, go for it soon!
