  1. Sorry for the late reply : )
    The scars are still there. It seems they are fading though.
    They are soft now almost like natural breasts.
    It took me about a month and a half to feel comfortable working out/jogging and stuff.
     
  2. Hi guys!
    I got a breast augmentation 3 weeks ago in Seoul, Korea from JK!
    Yay! I finally got it done! Finally!!

    I am so happy with the results because they look NATURAL! They still seem a little bit swollen and my nipples and surrounding areas are sore and sensitive but I was told that it was normal and a full recovery would take 3 to 6 months from the surgery.

    The one thing that I am really concerned about right now is how fast my scars from the incisions can fade. My boyfriend said "I will send you back to Korea if you have any scars on your body". -___-
    I still have the glue on my incisions under my breasts, which was applied after the stiches were removed.They said it would fall off completely within 3 weeks. I am dying to see the actual incisions. I was told to use Cica Care, which is an over the counter gel sheet that is supposed to help the scars fade faster. I purchased it in Korea because based on my research, it requires a prescription in the U.S. I was trying to save my co-pay of $45 for doctor’s office visit : )
    Please let me know if anyone knows other better ways to fade the scars!

    Ok, here is my journey to a breast augmentation.
    As soon as I walked in their building, the people at the front desk greeted me. One of the girls came out, seated me and took a drink order from me. They even had a café at the lobby so I could order my favorite drink, an iced latte!
    After about 10 min wait at the lobby, another lady came out and took me to a private consultation room. Instead of telling me where to go and what to do, they always took me to the places. They were all polite and friendly. I figured that they were doing this because the clinic occupies the whole building and they didn’t want me to get lost? The doctor arrived a little bit late but when he walked in, he politely apologized for coming in late and said that his surgery took longer than what they expected. He was really friendly and very professional. He showed me several different post op pictures of a breast augmentation and asked what size I would like to choose. He recommended I get 275 cc high profile, which will fit my body and will give me a natural looking full C. I took his recommendation. (I weigh 105lb and 5’2’’ tall)
    In addition to the consultation, they had to run some tests such as an x-ray and a blood test for them to see if I am a good candidate for the surgery.
    My surgery was scheduled 2 days after the initial consultation. I was extremely nervous about the post surgery pains I would have to go through and me having trouble sleeping at night after the surgery because of the jetlag. Guess what I suffered from the most! It was hunger!
    I was told not to eat 8 hours before the surgery. Because my body was on U.S time, I had no appetite during the day a day before the surgery so I ended up skipping lunch and dinner. Next morning, I got really hungry but I couldn’t eat because my surgery was scheduled at 3 PM.
    When I woke up from the surgery, I felt so tight and sore AND STARVING. I was thinking to myself , “I need to eat to survive”. One of the nurses gave me a shot and made me wait for a couple of hours before I can eat. I am telling you guys, the surgery could be delayed. You NEED TO EAT AS MUCH AS YOU CAN 8 hours before the surgery!
    I had to come back to the clinic 3 days after the surgery to get the bandages and the post-op bra off.
    That was the first day I met my new sisters: ) They came out bigger than what I expected. They were swollen and very hard. The doctor said once the swelling subsides, the size will decrease. I had inverted nipples and the doctor told me before the surgery, the breast augmentation could correct my nipples too. Not fully but to some degree. Yes, he was right. Although they didn't pop out completely, they got pushed out and become somewhat normal looking nipples : )

    I also got a laser treatment on my breasts on the same day,which is included in the total surgery price. They said the laser treatment would help reduce swelling.

    On the 9th day of the surgery, my last day in Korea, I went back to the clinic one last time to get the stitches removed. The doctor took a final look to make sure they look ok. He said they turned out great and told me to take my meds for the next 3 months.

    I still have several months to recover fully but my breasts look amazing. To me, porn star big boobs look too fake and don't look attractive. I am not saying that is wrong. People have different views of physical beauty. I am very satisfied with the size I chose and how they look on my body.


    I hope my post helps: )
    Good luck!
