Perle Breast Augmentation Story: A New Year's Gift to Myself After My Breasts Deflated Post-Pregnancy

"I'm Mi-Mi, I'm 29, and I'm a beautician. My breasts were never big, but with thick padding I could still create some cleavage. Then after having 2 kids, my breasts just disappeared. I tried breast-enhancing supplements and soy milk, but nothing worked, which made me want breast augmentation even more. It was right around New Year, so I made it my New Year's wish, and I decided on surgery as soon as the consultation ended..."

Perle needs no massage, and the lifetime warranty is a bonus

I wanted an implant that doesn't need massage. After feeling them, I found Motiva too bouncy, and I liked the softness of Perle best. My chest is fairly narrow, so Perle's diameter suits me better, and Perle's lifetime warranty is another plus (though of course I hope I never need it, hahaha). I chose an underarm incision based on what colleagues who'd had breast augmentation told me: an incision under the breast rubs against clothing and may scar more, and with an areola incision you can lose sensation for a long time and the scar is still visible. So I chose the underarm incision, which affects appearance less.

Back to normal life on day 3, with a fast, comfortable recovery

I was only sore for the first two days and back to normal life on day three; I even went shopping. There was only a little bruising and swelling. Apart from not using my arms forcefully early on, sleeping on my back, and a prickly feeling while the nerves in my chest healed, there was no other inconvenience. The clinic provided anti-inflammatory medication, scar-fading laser and anti-inflammatory pain injections, and the doctor also suggested I take vitamin E and medication to help prevent capsular contracture. Perle's capsular contracture rate is very low, but I took them anyway; I really don't want to use the warranty~

A lovely shape and satisfaction of 8, and I'm considering fat grafting later

I'm a little over 3 months post-op, and my satisfaction is 8, because the underarm scars are still fading. I also took the doctor's advice and chose 300cc. Of course the result looks great and I'm very happy, but I still feel it could be a little bigger, so I'm considering fat grafting to the breasts later, so it's no big deal! My friends and colleagues have all been very supportive and think my breasts turned out great.

A confidence boost, with cleavage and no underwire bras needed

After breast augmentation I'm much more confident, and I finally don't need to wear a bra, because many clothes now have built-in pads. Before, when my breasts weren't big enough, I needed a bra for support, and clothes with built-in pads ended up lumpy and unnatural. Now the built-in pads alone give me cleavage, and camisoles are so comfortable that I don't want to wear underwire bras anymore.

If you want breast augmentation, act now and get professional advice

If someone around me is thinking about breast augmentation, I'll tell them: go! You have to! Don't hesitate; there's really nothing to hesitate about. The sooner you do it, the sooner you'll look beautiful~ As for the material, I think you should talk to a consultant, listen to their professional advice, and choose an implant that suits you and that you like.
