I have wanted boobs for 16+ years .. my whole life...
WORTH IT$6,500
I have wanted boobs for 16+ years .. my whole life i had small boobs but after I had my daughter in 1995 my small B deflated into small balloons! Awful! I hated myself when I saw myself naked, clothes always needed a super bra, etc.
I cannot tell you how happy I am .. went with 457 ccs silicone, under the muscle through the areola. I had my surgery on Dec. 26th and I hope my swelling is done because I think I am a DD and actually want to stay this size. I LOVE them!!! :)
I took Arnica for 3 days before my surgery, had drains in for 2 days, am still taking Arnica and have been massaging - my recovery has not been that bad!! The day of and the day after were rough and then after that it has't been awful - it has been A LOT better than I thought!!

Yes its the iPhone. My was doing that a couple of times as well. Congrats and welcome to the other side. I had mine BA on Dec 7th breast lift with implants thru the areolas as well...616 cc under the muscle. I also was a deflated 36b and hoping for full 36 D or 36 DD. My recovery has been good as well just had to find the right sports bra that would fit. I went from VS Zip front to a genie bra to a Champion SPorts bra and now back to VS zip up during the day and genie bra/ champion bra at night. I love to let my babies be free!!!!! Although i have noticed today it seems as if they have dropped more because when I put on the genie bra, for the first time it felt very tight. I have a couple more months to go so we will see. I will be following your progress and hope you get what you want in the end!!! Happy Boob Year!!!

Lol! Thanks! Soooo excited! I have been keeping them in Champion sports bras but not ones with super duper support. Those kind of hurt around the areas under my boobs and one of my sides starting bruising I think because of it so I just got with some moderate to light support .. Hoping I'm doing the right thing. I am going to hit VS but I wanted to wait a little while before I spent more money on bras. I hope my swelling is done .. I like my boobs the size they are. ;))

First off u look wonderful! Did u get a lift? How was it with the drains?
January 8, 2013
Thank you so much! No, I didn't get a lift .. I will post some before pics .. they were so awful LOL! My doc is a miracle worker LOL! The drains were not that bad .. a little gross squeezing the blood out of them but it didn't really bother me that much. I think they made a big impact on my swelling/healing and pain. :)
January 8, 2013
Thank you for the additional Picts. I am nervous about the drains with my BA and lift. U made me feel better.
January 9, 2013
Drains? What's that about? To help reduce swelling faster? I'm not familiar with that.
January 9, 2013
Yes, my doctor used drains in each boob. They help relieve swelling and pain and I swear they made my recovery SO much easier. All of the excess blood that normally would be rushing to the implant area bascially gets sucked out in these drains. I was massaging my boobs by day 2 pain free. The drains came out on the 2nd day. If you look at my pics, you can see I wasn't HUGELY swollen .. I am in the same white sports bra literally the day after my surgery and then this morning I posted another pic. They have dropped a little, but it is not a huge difference, I don't think. ;)
January 9, 2013
I highly recommend them!!! I have some other more graphic pics but I won't post them LOL. If the sight of blood makes you ill, best to have someone else drain your drains for you. ;)
January 9, 2013
I had no clue either - I have a lot of friends who have had their boobs done and I have been dying to get boobs for so many years lol. No other PS I met with mentioned them before.

You look amazing! Congrats!

Wow you have same ones I have except I got 616cc natrelle style 15. You look fabulous. This style really gives a natural look. They don't sit up high but when you dress them they look very real and sexy. I'm so happy with mine although there's a bit more dropping/fluffing to go. Getting the BA thru the areolas was great and I did not lose any sensation at all. I was worried but everything went smoothly. Enjoy your babies. Smoking hot!!!! Will keep up with your progress
January 9, 2013
Thanks! xoxo I am only 2 weeks post op so I'm SURE there is more dropping/fluffing, etc. to go. I do hope they stay nice and big LOL! I like them because I can disguise them for my day job but when I want to go out or show them off, I can. I'm sure you know the feeling. 616's??! WOWZERS! ;o)
January 9, 2013
You look awesome! Even upside down lol! Congrats!
January 9, 2013

January 9, 2013
You look amazing! Congrats on your new additions! :)
January 9, 2013
Thank you Allee! A little bummed that my right one is a little bigger than my left one and hangs a little lower too but ANYTHING is better than what I used to have LOL! ;P
January 9, 2013
I know the feeling! I can't tell at all from your pictures that aren't even, but I'm pretty critical of mine too so I know we see all the small imperfections when we're looking at them all the time :) I'm trying to remind myself that the before was much worse too! :)

What front zipper bras do u have on in the Picts!? They look comfortable!
January 9, 2013
It is pretty comfy! It is a Danskin Now foam front zip sports bra ($12 - Walmart.com). I also found that light blue sports bra that I'm wearing in one of my pics to be SUPER comfy. I think it's by Champion - no more than $15-18. Makes my boobs look good too LOL!
January 9, 2013
Yes it is comfy. I have that blue one from champion as well. It was $16 at Target. Although my babies are a little bigger so its ok on the support but good for sleeping. I need to find a comfy bra with no underwire. Anybody come across some in 36dd let me know. For now its the genie champion and VS zip front bra
January 17, 2013
Thank you for posting this info! I have been looking everywhere for a good sports bra so I can start walking/doing light cardio ASAP post-surgery! So glad you found these at walmart/Target... I'll be buying them in bulk haha
January 17, 2013
Lol just make sure you recover slowly!! I am excited to finally be able to do some lower cardio this week (I am 3 weeks post op) .. My PS told me I could not do a thing to raise my BP for 2 weeks and plan on not doing anything to engage my chest muscles (as much as possible) for 6 weeks. Have a boobalicious day ladies!! xoxo
