Breast Augmentation before the big day!

I wasn't in this position, but like Caytlyn pointed out, I would be concerned about swelling following your surgery.

As others have pointed out, swelling and tenderness is going to be an issue for you to consider. One thing I will note is that you haven’t advised of what cup size you are going to and the significance of the augmentation upon your alterations depends on the increase you’re going to.

Given you are a 34A no reasonable surgeon would allow you to go more than a C/D cup (if even) so if that is so, I don’t imagine it’ll be a huge issue getting alterations done since most dresses allow for some room in the front anyway, and you’ve gone a size up. Good luck!

I haven't gotten an augmentation myself (naturally a 34G) but from friends who are in the field I have been told that generally you shouldn't go too big (at least not without doing it very gradually and safely) as you will not have the skin/tissue to go significantly larger. Be weary of any surgeon who doesn't steer you from going too big!

I used to work for a plastic surgeon. I would definitely get in for a consultation sooner rather than later (also, don't be afraid to shop around for the best fit for surgeon. You want someone who does work that is esthetically pleasing- not going to give you a size that is too big for your frame that it looks unnatural) - the surgeon will be able to tell you how long before your wedding you should have your surgery. Sometimes for some people it can take up to 6 months for the implants to "drop" and look natural and sometimes there can be complications.

As far as I know, recovery from breast augmentation takes at least six months. Women who have the operation a few months before their wedding risk having certain problems. Still, every case is different, so you may have medical contraindications to wearing corsets and tight-fitting dresses.

That's not true. Down time is one-week, and if you have implants placed under the muscle, the drop and soreness will alleviate about 1-2 months depending on the muscles. If placed over the muscle, the above is not an issue. Surgical scars will certainly heal in 4 months. No one wears corsets in bridal fashion anymore, nor a dress so constricting to damage surgical sutures.
