I know i have been absent for quite a while. i have been busy with my TT. that is on my other site. so here are under the breast pics of the MASTOPEXY SCARS-- i am very pleases so far. i did some scarinex but not diligently i admit. now i am getting scar away silicone strips for the TT scar, so i think i will use them on the breasts also.

update at 11 weeks-HAPPY
emnMay 22, 2013
I am now nearly 11 weeks post-op. I have stopped dwelling on my breasts as much. When i leave the house, i do what i need to do, and i have most of the time when I am not aware at all of my breasts. That means they have healed, so they are doing very little to remind me. I still have some feeling of dropping forward or heaviness when i do something such as touching my toes, but not as bad as before.
BUT when i get up in the mornings, i never pass the bathroom mirror without LOOKING at them, admiring them, and just plain adoring them.And when i get dressed, I am very aware of what i choose to put on and how they look.
I do enjoy being able to choose my look that day, depending on if i am going to work or not. Today i wore something so demure and one could not even see the breast size or anything on top even though it was scoop neck. Saturday i purposely put on the push up bra with the lowest top I could find, and i loved it.I am still not used to the look I have in the gym - I have breasts. I am not sure I like that. I am used to working out looking quite a bit flatter.I have yet to put on a dance leotard. I am not ready for that.I love going out looking feminine and with my beautiful sexy girls in a halter top dress.
My girls are now what they will be. They are very soft and pliable, and yet perky, and I think a bit smaller than they were when i wrote at 7 weeks. But ...maybe it is just my imagination.....
Sometimes I wish I did not grow out so low down, because the upper part would be more puffy, but then again maybe i would not be able to have the lighter smaller look when i choose to. i know that sounds wierd to many women, because most want to be bigger looking all the time, no matter what they are doing, and I admit I admire their looks in the photos.
MY mastopexy scars are looking very good, and I will post photos of them soon.
I am very happy with my look, and soooo glad I finally did it!
TT and face next!

Your results look very good. They look natural
May 26, 2013
thanks! I love the natural look! just looked at your post. good luck and congratulations on doing what you want, regardless of other people.
May 28, 2013
You look great!!! I love your new bras...gorgeous :-D
May 28, 2013
thanks!
the everyday bra is super comfortable and goes everywhere with anything, especially to work. the push up one bothers me, it is 34F(european), and i am really 36, so a bit tight at the band, but starting to loosen up, but the part that bothers me is the strap---i will bring it in and see what they can do. intimacy has a seamstress and it is free. because right now i cannot wear the push up bra for too long.
May 28, 2013
What is your bra size (US)? I was trying to look up the covertor but it listed UK sizes the same as ours and other Europen sizes in single digits so I'm a bit confused lol. Have you tried the bra calculator on sophisticated pair? It's pretty accurate. What about the push-up bra strap is painful?
May 28, 2013
i did that calculator, but will redo it later today, since i am now down to what i will be with no swelling.my old bras of 36C are too small. the push up bra, which btw has no pad on the undercut, but is made to push up the way it is cut, has straps with the adjustor clip that seems to sit on my shoulder bone, when i put a little pad under it, the pain subsided. at first i thought it was too tight, so loosened the straps. but i think it is the clip, i will take it in and let her look at it. might have to give it back i have 30 days.
May 28, 2013
i re-measured according to that site. if SNUG, it is UK 32E AND US 32DDD/F
but if MODERATELY SNUG OR SLIGHTLY SNUG it is UK 34DD and US 34DD/E
so i see now that my breasts have settled and i am 12 weeks post op, my old bras 36 C is pushing too tight. even the intimacy bra from europe i bought last year at 36Dis too tight.
my new regular daily bra is european 36E
but this calculator states it would be 34DD.
i might go to nordstroms next time to see bras.
but intimacy has a bra i really like, the one i got last year and i might when ready go get that one in the next size, whatever that is.but they are pricey,that one is 105.i am not splurging now, need to save for my other procedures.
May 28, 2013
Oh wow, we're the same size! That's too cool ;-). As you started out a B, you had a good 200cc more breast tissue more than I did. So it took me 700 CC to catch up lol. I too am searching for the "perfect bra." I'm not quiet allowed to be in an underwire yet, but hopefully soon. I will let you know if I find a brand that I really like :-). I know Chantelle is a very nice brand and Panache sports bras are wonderful! I spent about 70 on that sports bra a few months ago, and unfortunately cannot wear it as it's a 34 D which equates to a 32DD :-(. I wish there was somewhere to sell gently used undergarments. I hate wasting money lol
May 28, 2013
but you look so much bigger than me! we cannot be the same size ! how odd.i was C but it was only due to the loose skin. it was not inside fat content. so my fat was probably a B size. he cut away loads of skin, as you can see. and had to reduce the right side way more.
i bet there are many women on this site who would love that panache bra--after all, we do have used clothes stores. yes,, it is a bra, but in good shape and hardly worn. no harm putting it out there.
May 28, 2013
Oh that's right, sorry I had your stats off. My memory has been MIA lately with the allergy meds I have been taking lol. Hmmm, I do have HP implants which do give a lot of upper pole fullness and can look a bit larger maybe? It's also possible that I'm a bit bitter than 32DDD as the muscle is still a bit tight (thus holding onto the implant). That's an insane thought! That's very true about the sports bra, I might just do that! I think my other bras I'll wash and donate to a local women's shelter :-) It would be nice to get some $$ back for the more expensive items though. I'm curious to see how Nordstroms sizes you. I bet in a comfortable band size (not the super snug fit) you truly are a full 34DD/full 36D. That's a perfect size! Nordstroms has some beautiful things and I wanted to buy everything when I was there Saturday. It took serious self-control. I LOVE shopping so I felt quite proud of myself for only spending $70 lol.

Just posted new bra photos. i just went to...
emnMay 14, 2013
just posted new bra photos. i just went to Intimacy store to ask her to check my bra i had purchased from them last year. it started to not feel right to me. my hunch was correct, i was popping out of the top incorrectly. she said first that i should not pay attention to the european sizes they have. they are very different from US sizing.my US calvin kleins and target store other bras (name unknown) were 36 C,and my european one from intimacy last yr was 36D. yesterday i was fit in a nice bra, an everyday type, lovely, at 36E and another one that was a push up style at 34F. Believe me i am not E or F in our US sizing!! the push up bra has no lower cup cushions, it just pushes up via the construction of the bra. . i am forgetting about letters and numbers in bras. i am just wearing what works.

Great idea on using the silicone scar strips for both your breast lift and tummy tuck scars. Thanks for the update and photos. Your before and after photos are truly amazing. So happy for you!
