Social media influencer Brynley Arnold is sharing her experience following a recent breast augmentation surgery. In a candid TikTok video posted on February 17, Arnold revealed that she underwent the procedure just one month after her older sister, Lindsay Arnold, had done the same.
In the video, which featured a full-face glam session as part of her “Get Ready With Me” series, Arnold explained why she decided to undergo the surgery, detailed the procedure itself, and described how she’s feeling five days into her recovery.
“I feel like yesterday and the day before were definitely the most sore I’ve been. Today has been a lot better,” Arnold said, describing how her breasts felt “tight” due to the steri-strips and clips adding “pressure” post-op.
The influencer shared that she had a breast augmentation and lift, opting for 380cc implants and subfascial placement, which anchors the implant above the muscle. “I already love them!” she said, expressing her satisfaction just days after the procedure.
Arnold reflected on the surgery, explaining that she was under anesthesia for about two hours. “I remember falling asleep getting some medicine, and then the next thing I know, I wake up and Donny [McGinnis] is there,” said Arnold, who married her husband in October 2020. “I’ve never experienced that before so that was weird,” she added. Despite the disorienting sensation of waking up from anesthesia, she said she had no issues with nausea, making her recovery much easier.
When it came to pain, Arnold reported minimal discomfort. “I didn’t feel pain at all the day of the surgery and just felt uncomfortable later that night because I slept propped up,” she explained. “I probably didn’t feel pain until the later morning, but I kept up with Tylenol and anti-inflammatory meds, so it hasn’t gotten too bad.”
One of the more challenging aspects of recovery for Arnold has been the restriction on lifting. As a mother of two—daughter Quincy, born in August 2022, and son Rez, born in May 2024—Arnold said she is unable to lift her children during the first week of recovery. “I can’t lift Quincy or Rez,” she said, though she noted her mobility had improved day by day. “It’s been the hardest part,” she added, expressing gratitude for the support of her mother-in-law during this time.
In the video, Arnold also explained her motivation for the procedure, revealing that she had planned on getting a breast augmentation for some time. “I was postpartum with Rez and I had always known that I was going to get a boob job,” Arnold said. “After I was pregnant with Quincy and breastfed her, I was like, ‘I really want to do it.'”
However, Arnold emphasized that she wanted to wait until she was finished having children before undergoing surgery. “After I had Rez, I was like, ‘I want to do it now,'” she shared. Despite the recent procedure, Arnold clarified that her family is not done growing. “I’m still planning on having kids and breastfeeding in the future,” she said.
Looking ahead, Arnold expects to fully recover in about six weeks, at which point she hopes to resume normal activities. “I’m hoping I could pick up Rez with some help by next week,” she said.
Arnold’s decision to undergo the procedure comes just a month after her sister Lindsay Arnold had her own breast augmentation surgery. Lindsay shared her experience on TikTok in January, explaining that the surgery was her “Christmas present.”
In response to questions from followers about the timing of both sisters’ surgeries, Brynley joked, “A lot of you are just like, ‘Why are both of you doing it? Are all the sisters getting it done?’ Honestly, I would highly recommend getting plastic surgery with your sister. It’s been so nice! Having her experience to see and relate with has been so fun.”
Concluding her video, Arnold expressed excitement about the future, saying, “And we’re both going to be so happy once we’re both fully healed.”
