Guerra Plastic Surgery Center | Breast Wishes: New boobs on your wedding day?
The bride is the fairest of them all during her wedding day. No matter what it takes, everything must go according to every little girl’s dream. Flawless and seamless, from hair to makeup.
And when the lovely muse says yes to the dress, who wouldn’t want to show off the breasts? Well, some prefer the conservative style, but when it’s a sweetheart neckline, the goods will have to demand attention.
Should you be getting new boobs before getting hitched? Here’s what you need to know.
Precautions
Before a boob job, you may already be accustomed to silhouettes and patterns that flatter your A cup. However, if you’re considering breast augmentation from an A to C cup, new cuts for a wedding gown will suit you.
Bear in mind that you’ll be going through a lot of fittings, and you have to be intentional as to what kind of neckline or sleeve length you want to have, for example, while also considering if they aren’t going to constrict your new boobs for they will also need time to heal.
It takes time to pin down the dress of your dreams because of possible weight gain and residual breast pain. Also, after placing an order, it can take several months for the gown to arrive.
Decide to have a boob job weeks or months ahead of your gown’s expected arrival to really know if it feels right.
Boob makeover options
Breast augmentation is the choice for:
- Adding volume in your small chest
- Showing cleavage and fuller breasts
- Filling in your bra gap and fitting clothes better
- Making your breasts look more proportionate
- Boosting confidence in revealing clothes
This is not to say that the itty bitty titty committee can’t be truly confident and contented. Some women just really like oozing femininity and fertility, and that is larger, symmetrical breasts for them.
Breast lift is the option for:
- Saggy breasts
- Wide nipple droops
- Restore youthful volume
- Irregular hormonal changes or weight loss
- Those not wanting implants (breast lift can be with or without it)
There are three types of lift procedures.
- Wise Pattern Breast Lift (Anchor Lift)
- Vertical Breast Lift (Lollipop Lift)
- Periareolar Breast Lift (Donut lift)
Breast Implants: Do they all feel like rocks?
The scene from Mean girls wherein Gretchen Weiners disclosed to Cady that the boobs of Regina George’s mom are fake and “hard as rocks” and this chihuahua proceeds to chew on Mrs. George’s nipples must have messed with your minds.
Your initial reaction must be like, aren’t boob jobs designed to make boobs more attractive, meaning soft and supple?
Breast implants can either be medical-grade silicone gel or saline saltwater. These breast implants come in various shapes, sizes, and profiles. Let’s summarize their comparison.
Again, it cannot be emphasized enough that your comfort is more important than the appearance of your breasts. On your wedding day, walking down the aisle brings a lot of mixed emotions, and you don’t want your boob job to be heaving on your chest, as well. Consult with trusted and awarded plastic surgeons near your area.
Downtime woes
It isn’t the same for all women, but full-time recovery can last between six to eight weeks. While you fuss about gaining weight and not fitting in your gown, refrain from doing physical activity. Don’t start lifting in the gym or doing strenuous errands.
Right after surgery, you’ll slowly feel the anesthesia wear out. A team of medical experts will check up on you. You will feel sore and disoriented. As your pectoralis muscles contract, the pain will diminish.
After a few hours pass, you will feel less pain but get drowsy. An elastic band will support your breasts, and the surgeon will impart the care guide for your incision scars.
After a couple of days or week, you’ll likely experience intense aching and discomfort. Minor bleeding is normal but if you’re anxious, consult your surgeon. Take your prescribed medication.
After more than a week, you’ll get the hang of it and manage the pain as long as you’re consistent in taking your pain relievers. It’ might be too early for light physical activities but talk to your plastic surgeon to be sure.
You can file for leave at work if the soreness keeps recurring, especially if the workload is overwhelming and the schedule is hectic.
After two months, you should be approaching full recovery, depending on how your body heals. Give it time and wait for your medical professional’s advice if you can go back to your basic programming again.
Knowing your needs
At the end of the day, it all boils down to what fits your need. Some prefer silicone breast implants for more natural-looking breasts. They just want a little lift for more shape and dimension in the chest department.
Others don’t care about having fake-looking breasts as long as they feel good about themselves. Perkier, rounder breasts send us feeling young and fit. Who wouldn’t want firm skin that doesn’t remind us of our actual age?
On your wedding day, you just have to hire a reliable bridal stylist that will factor in all post-surgery side effects such as residual swelling and unexpected results. The bride would have to undergo countless measures and re-measures to have a gown fit like a glove. A note from gown designers is never fully to sew the zipper to the dress right away. It’s best to have it secured at the time of the alteration appointment. That’s one less problem for the bride, for time is of the essence.
It isn’t really about the dress, alone. Your breast enhancement procedure should be topnotch, as well, because no matter how elaborate your dress is, if your boobs are sulking, your mood isn’t going to lighten. Give your board-certified Arizona cosmetic surgeon a call today.
