2 monts and firming up!

Just past 2 months post op and things are starting to firm up a little. I have noticed the skin and breast fat are getting firmer and tightening up a little. I have had several people make comments about how little I look now! I have tried several types of bras and have settled on a 36DD as the one which fits the best. Ironically I wore a 38D with my implants in which is basically the same as a 36DD. I love my new size and feel it fits my body better especially since now I have less projection and they are softer. I am starting to loose wt again and feeling better physically these days.

One month Implant free

I haven't noticed much difference in things but I still have this soreness to the R side when I take the compression bra off in the morning or when things are bouncing around in my bra during the day. It feels like the heavy breast tissue is pulling on the muscle or skin/nipple area. I measured myself with a very comprehensive measuring guide http://www.brasizecalculator.tk/ Apparently I am not as flat as I thought I was. I am measuring at a UK size 34F, that's a 34G or 36DDD us size! I even tried on a 36D and the wire is not wide enough.
I have come to the conclusion that I cant wear the handful bras for anything other than sleeping, lazy days, or mild exercise, my breast tissue creates unsightly uni-boob. I wonder if the women with soft breast tissue end up getting implants because following childbirth there isn't the skin elasticity to hold the soft tissue up due to stretch scars(marks).

Road to recovery

So I know its been two weeks since my last update but I have pics of post op week 1 and 2. I have to say I am surprised at how few people noticed the difference..as if everyone is as obsessed with my boobs as I am these days...lol Absolutely no one said anything and only one person (a guy) looked at me funny. Its nice not to feel as though my breasts are entering a room before I am. I am no longer self conscious about how I look in a sweater and my tops are much less "sudden" on my frame now. My BF said I sit up straighter too. He likes them better like this, all soft and squishy. I have to say I do too. :o) My Dr. didn't give me any restrictions or tell me to wear compression or anything but I have found that wearing a compression bra in the daytime and a tight sports bra at night has helped with the shrinking of breast tissue and I am hoping for some skin tightening. Also the support is nice, without it I feel pulling on the sides from under my arm which is slightly uncomfortable. Even though it may be hard to see I have noticed a decided decrease in breast volume/tissue these last 2 weeks. The compression bra is not as overflowing as it was when I first put it on 1week post op. I only waited that long because I happened to find one at SalVal in the right size. Probably mostly a decrease in swelling. I have gotten a couple of Handful bras and tried them the first week, which didn't work out to well as I needed just a little more support. I am going to wait a couple more weeks before trying them again. My incisions are in the lumpy stage with a nice big lump where the Dr. had to do some digging on the R side. Twice a day I massage with Sacred Frankincense EO and my other loose skin shrinking EO combinations. Lots of water, vitamins, diatomaceous earth and sulferzyme supplements, eating clean, sleeping well..all that good healthy stuff.

Dr. Karaca was understanding of my reasons to ex-plant and answered all my questions regarding the procedure and recovery. He was very informative of my future and current options. In office under local. Update post procedure: Very good despite unexpected complications. Office staff were very kind and supportive.
