BRCA1 implant replacement surgery results

I just had my first implant replacement surgery last month. My old implants were by Allergan and I now have new implants by Motiva. My new implants are bigger and I’m getting used to my new size. Did anyone else here go through the same thing?

I‘m happy with my new implants, they look more natural and my scars are less visible now. I used to have quite a big gap between my old implants and they made this gap a lot smaller with my new ones. My surgeon explained this is why the implants are a bit bigger now.

Does anyone here also have larger implants compared to their natural breasts or former implants? How was this for you? I’m a little self conscious now because I’m slim built and it feels like my chest is gigantic. I also had to buy new bra’s because my old ones don’t fit anymore. Feels like my brain is again trying to get used to these implants just like when I had my first back in 2015.

I don’t know, it feels a bit like a first world problem and I felt like only other women with BRCA know what I’m experiencing. Thanks for reading! I had to get this off my chest (literally).
