2 weeks post-op and very happy I did this.

I really do love it =) Although, I almost forget how small I was before. Comparing the pink bandeau photos really shows it though!! lol

And your scars look great. Very flat and even. Which once they fade will be even nicer! I never realized how hard it would be to take a photo of the underside of my boob though. I must've taken about 50 pics before I moved to the window to get better lighting lol

Heya Sairbear,

The surgeon I had my procedure with is located in Prince George, though she does operate in a couple other locations nearby. I actually didn't really look into any other surgeons, so I can't say I chose her over another one. But like I said in my review, I fell in love once I had the consult. She was so reassuring and confident without being arrogant. She actually was surprised that I knew of her because she mostly does breast reconstructions from doctor referrals. She doesn't advertise or go out looking for patients and usually the only way people hear of her for anything cosmetic is via word of mouth (which is how I found out about her). But that doesn't mean she isn't great at doing regular augmentation, because she does do very lovely work. I'm completely happy with how mine have turned out. From the moment I removed the post-op bra I was pleased with my decision.

So I absolutely recommend Dr. Kurz. She's very straight-forward and I loved that about her. I had all my decisions chosen before I even went for my consult and told her about each of them and she agreed with some and discouraged me on others and explained why I might not be making the correct choice for me. Had I been very stubborn she would've agreed to do what I preferred but she was very confidence inspiring and persuasive. I think we came to the best conclusions for me and I regret nothing about getting my breasts enlarged (though I wish it were signifigantly cheaper lol).

I hope this helps! And good luck choosing a surgeon =)

Hello scrappy,
I'm doing great, how bout you? I have started massaging, though not too aggressively. There was no mention of massage with my surgeon, nor was it in my post-operative care sheets, so I assumed that means she doesn't normally suggest it. I looked up how to do it online and started doing it myself though. But I'm still uncertain why so many surgeons recommend it. Everything seems to be healing wonderfully on it's own so far. They've softened up considerably and have lots of bounce to them (dare I say like natural boobs =P )

Hi Pachie!

I'm doing good, no problems with the boobies.Nothing worth complaining about anyways.  =)

I dont know why PS's dont all recommend massaging. As you know from many of the gals here- once you start massaging, the boobs soften up and I personally think they drop faster and helps the skin relax. I am thinking that since your PS does not recommend massage, she/he prob. doesnt make the pockets go up to the collar bone. That's ok, but the massage technique is then different. The important thing is just moving them around and preventing a capsule from building up around the implant. Early on I would also grab my boob in my palm and just jiggle it in every direction it could go. Helps dramatically with morning boob too. =) I also would push them both together as well.

I cant say that it hurts anything to massage them, and better safe than sorry!

I am glad that everything turned out well for you! I was looking at your girls and picturing the 3 bras and trying to figure out if it looked the same. I think the front prob. does, but you didnt post a profile with the 3. So what do you think?

Oh, and I'd also like to see a pic of you in the bikini bandeau to see the difference. Can you still fit it?

Heya, that's too funny. That's what I've been doing too. I've been touching them since the moment I woke up and have been hearing all sorts of odd noises. But I've been pushing the skin down too and hearing what sounds like liquid in there. But that does make me feel better because I looked at your photos and didn't think the skin looked lifted between yours. So maybe it is normal. So thank-you!

And I wish I could post photos, but I don't have a good cel phone to do it with and I didn't bring my camera cord. So I'll have to wait until I get back home to do it.

I heard that you cant post pics with your phone. So I guess it has to be on a real computer. I am not sure though.

 

I think the fluid is an antibiotic injection and a cavity wash- might be our own fluids in there too. Eww. lol

I did have some light bruising in between, but its not very noticeable in my day 4 pics which I dont think i have those posted.

I'm sorry, I dont remember- did you have to travel to get your surgery done?

I was wondering what that fluid might be...

And yep I went down to my in-laws city to get the surgery so I'd save money on hotel and food and would have help with the kids since my spouse had to stay home and work.

Lol! A boobie girl now and loooving it so far. Thanks =) I did try on the bandeau top, just a couple days after the surgery and I was not very impressed with how it looked. They're riding so high and are so firm in their shape that it just didn't look natural with the strapless bathing suit. Though it might've been my sister in laws house as well that made me not like the way it looked so much. She doesn't have ANY full length mirrors which drove me crazy because I couldn't fully gather how I looked top to bottom with my new enchancements. I was constantly bobbing up and down in her mirrors to try and see my full image. So I guess I'll wait until they settle a little and then try it on again, but no real rush to love it because Summer is basically over for us now (already feeling like fall/winter).

And luckily most of my clothes still fit! I've always liked longer, slightly stretchy tops so most of them do fit. I just fill them out way better now =D I will have to get rid of some of my shorter t shirts and tanks but that's a sacrifice I was willing to make lol

And thanks again. I really feel like myself now and am very happy with the way everything's turned out. Like I was always meant to have big boobs, just for some reason I didn't grow them =P

I feel the same way, like I was supposed to have big boobs but they just didn't grow in. Now I have them, and even though they are large implants they look completely natural on me. Finally I feel like I am my "Real Self"

Thanks! I don't feel the fluid in and around the implants anymore but I do still notice my slightly lifted skin in between the breasts (and you can kind of see it from the shadowing in the frontal photo). It's even more prominent if I raise my arms in certain ways or if I push my chest out. I'm hoping that it's just being lifted because of the tension and tightness between my breasts and once the skin has stretched, and all the swelling is completely gone, that it'll disappear. But honestly, as long as it doesn't get worse, I don't mind. I'm too happy with my results to let something minor take away from the overall experience.
