WORTH IT$9,999

I am 5'1" and always have been flat chested and wanted implants but they always seemed unrealistic for me because of the cost. Then, after 2 kids (both 8.5 lbs) and my second baby being a c/s I wanted a tummy tuck wayyyyy more than a BA but again, neither seemed attainable due to the cost. Finally I was sick of hating my body every single day in the mirror with my belly "flap" and excess fat & skin that would never go away no matter how much weight I lost. I decided to get a TT but then thought, I might as well just do both. It's the only body I get and I want to love it.

What CC did you go with and how tall are you? I Am 5"10 165lbs, going with 475CC under muscle.

I did 425cc under muscle. I am 5'2" and 145. Planning on losing the last 20 lbs to get to my ideal weight once I'm all healed up. I am jealous of how tall you are! :)

You're looking good! We have the exact same stats - I'm 5'1 145 lbs. I'm having my surgery in 3 1/2 hours. My implants are going to be 400cc so I'm concerned they're not going to be big enough. Did you get lipo also? Can't wait to follow you on your journey!

This boob really makes me nervous.

Did anyone else's look like this? Did it drop/take shape on it's own or did you do massage? (the far breast, shape underneath)

I think it is too early to judge. Your body is just responding to a major assault. I am 7 days post and I think mine look like alien torpedoes!! Most posts say it takes 3 months before they settle in. Don't worry

Thank you. I appreciate your comment! Just makes me nervous because my surgeon didn't really seem to want to talk about appearance or ultimate results today?? It was weird.

Hey, I just wanted to let you know that my bewbs were really high and tight at first too. What profile did you go with? You should check out my review for my BA!

It's not just that they're high, but I'm also worried about the indent where my incision is. I worry that it won't round out :(

Oh, also, I have no idea about profile? It wasn't something that my surgeon mentioned or discussed w me

Mine had a bunch of crazy ripples and wrinkles all around my incision, and they eventually smoothed out. I would just give it some time and voice your concerns with your PS :D
