Reason for deciding to get surgery
- I have a very thin chest. Especially, my upper chest is really really lacking, so sometimes I feel a sense of incongruity when I look at my upper body.. My pelvis is still there, but my chest is completely lacking, so there is a slight disharmony.. I wanted to balance my body and fix my 50 complex, so I decided to get surgery.
Decision on hospital
- While looking into breast surgery, I looked into side effects a lot, but since I don't know when they will come, I thought that if I had surgery with the possibility set to 0, the risk would be entirely mine. So I looked for a hospital that would open all possibilities and take on all the risks! To do that, it had to be a hospital that provides lifetime after-sales service, that opens up the CCTV footage on the day of surgery, that has a good follow-up checklist, and that has a system where I can get an ultrasound every year. I think I gradually made up things to check like this. There were a lot of small details here, but the big ones are like this. I got surgery at a hospital that satisfied me with all of them!
Pain
- I don't know if I was lucky, but I didn't really hurt.. To be honest, I was in pain on the day of the procedure, but it wasn't like I was in so much pain that I thought I was going to die. It was just that when I woke up from the anesthesia, I gradually felt pain and then I passed out and fell asleep for a bit and felt better after sleeping.. I think I was practically painless, so the hospital said I had good stamina ㅋㅋ
Recovery
- I was told not to move my arms, but it was easier to move my body than I thought, so I just went about my daily life like I usually did. I didn't tell them not to do anything (like raise my arms high), but I ate like I usually did, went to appointments and went out to buy ice cream like I usually do. Instead, I quit coffee and alcohol, and since it was a bit difficult to get up from lying down, I spent most of my time sitting on the sofa. I think I did most of my daily life like washing, brushing my teeth, eating, and getting dressed by the third day.
Feel
- It's still a bit firm. The swelling hasn't gone down much, and when I went to get my follow-up treatment recently, the manager told me to diligently use the upper band of my corrective bra ㅎㅎ
Satisfaction
- It feels like something I didn't have before has come back. Just having it seems to give me a sense of satisfaction. And I think the shape is natural… There’s no such shape that comes to mind when you think of surgically done breasts, and I think it fits my body proportions, so I’m satisfied with the results of the surgery. And they take good care of me, and the hospital takes better care of my breasts than I do, so I don’t have much to worry about. I think I could ask for more if the scar and the feel of it just get better!
Hard points
- Having to secretly visit the hospital a lot for up to a month after the surgery. And not being able to roll around when I sleep (the more annoying my sleeping habits are, the harder it is..?) Not being able to use my phone while lying down. There’s a subtle weight on my body all the time, and until I get used to it, it’s actually hard to get used to it. Haha. And oh, my skin secretly gets dry, and on top of that, wearing a corrective bra with an upper band makes it ticklish and stuff ㅠ Those things are hard. It’s a good thing it’s cold now. If it were summer, it would have been harder.
But I have never regretted getting the surgery, and even when I wear a tight-fitting T-shirt with a nipple patch, everyone tells me how great my body is and how pretty I am, so I feel good and my self-esteem goes up ㅎㅎ And recently, I had a lot of opportunities to be introduced to men, so I went here and there, and they all asked me if I was a Pilates instructor. They said my body looked like someone who works out ㅋㅋㅋ But ㅋㅋㅋ I had never heard of it before the surgery.. At that time, my self-esteem went up and my satisfaction went up a lot ㅋㅋㅋ I think everyone gets plastic surgery for these small pleasures. I am one of them ㅎㅎㅎ
