“Finally....I LOVE my boobies!!!”

Whoa CittyCat! Good for you!! Wow talk about a change from the inside out and outside in! I couldn't agree more about society, it really puts these unrealistic standards on us! Embracing your body, despite its flaws, is really the true change that's needed! But hey, empty saggy, small boobies/wrinkly tummy's just need the help of a PS. End of story. lol I had a tummy tuck 2 wks ago today, there's actually a review on that too on here!
And I'll be needing a lift on these boobies pretty soon, bc literally a month after I got them, I got PREGNANT! haha the curse of the boobies! And because my PS tried to spare me from a lift the first time (I was hesitant about the scars, but now my mindset has changed on that). So even though it may not look like it, I still had quite a bit of stretched skin! So after baby, they dropped and aren't as full and of course, the skin is more damaged.
But once that is done, that's IT! I'm more of a natural beauty kinda girl. It's just these few things that were totally out of my control! As you know!
You look FAB! And I'm so happy you are feeling better about yourself! You deserve it!! :)

Thank you, I completely agree about the real changes needed in society, men seem to have no clue what we go through and whats funny is us women hardly expect anything of them...what a funny world it would be if everywhere they went they were told they were not good enough, sexy enough, thin enough, young enough, had the right makeup, etc.....every commercial featured a man dancing around in his undies with that come hither look...women have a hard time and I really fear getting old....: ( I'm 29 and I already feel it, sad, huh....didn't mean to depress you, I just wish us women could somehow band together to change things, but I know its almost impossible!

You're so right! It's a total double standard!! I'll be 29 in May! :) You are NOT old! And why do you say you "feel" it? Do you feel like your body is slowing down? Not as much energy as before?
I really feel like age, really means nothing in terms of how you FEEL. It's all about your mindset! And your emotional health as well, that alone can make someone feel worse! But you LOOK great! :)
And sadly, to change things in this society would probably take an act of God or something! So you know what that means? We just have to work on ourselves individually and be examples for our friends and other women we meet! That is empowering in itself!
Feel well & beautiful...inside & out :)

Well, not old, old, like that, but just starting to become aware of what say a 50, 55, 60+ year old woman must be feeling. Middle aged+ women seem to have the most odds stacked against them in our society.....ever notice they use like 28year olds to advertise wrinkle cream......or don't you just love the girl who washes her face with such and such product then the after shows her in makeup talking about how great her skin is, lol. I could go on for days.....(but I would only feel dumb, because I was always like I can't beat em, might as well join em) i,e I wear makeup, do tanners sometimes, and all that other wonderful stuff that makes me appear more "attractive".....but like you said, an act of God is what it would take. I love women with all my heart and hope to empower them in anyway I can. Thank you for your kind words. (hugs)

Aww thanks Angie! Why are you envious? I'm assuming you had something cosmetic done if you're on here, right? :) I'll have to check out your profile! And thank you! I went from a 34 EMPTY A, to a 34 D. But I probably LOOK more like a C. :)

oooo just saw your profile. Your nose is perfect!! :)

haha good for you!!! :)

Haha thanks! These pics are actually from my first augmentation. I recently had a revision (BL w/ new implants). So I'll have to add my experience to this post! But I loved them then and after all the swelling goes down from these, I'll love them too! :)

Aww thanks girl! I was a 34D before the revision but I wasn't a FULL D. You know? And yes the hook was the furthest one away! But it wasn't so much the band, it was the tightness of the cup!
But let me know how the PS visit goes! I'm hoping she fixes them for you! But my PS refuses to touch mine until i'm 6 months post op!!! Bc he's seeing such a huge change in them, he thinks they'll smooth out. But I'm not so convinced. Ugh. We'll see! Let me know how it goes & good luck!! xo

Umm so I guess the bra you let me borrow totally fits now!! Must've just been swelling before! It fits like a glove now! I seriously have worn the same bra for days now without taking it off once! Well to shower but still. So I was dying to get that thing off tonight. So I figured I'd try ur bra on again bc it looked more comfy and it fit! Yay! It's really nice to sleep in! Thanks again! Xoxo

Thanks so much! Yes I got saline the 2nd time as well! I'm 3 wks post op and I feel awesome! Once those stitches came out at 1 wk post op, I felt much more flexibilty and less discomfort. Those stitches irritate the skin! Ahhh so you were the same size I was before I ever got implants! Yes I used the same doc for both surgeries AND he gave me a tummy tuck too ( I had SO much extra skin from all my babies!) He's a family friend of mine and I honestly have to say that he's so wonderful!! A few of my friends have used him too and they all say the same thing about him! Where do you live? He's in Exton, DEFINITELY book a consult with him and you'll see for yourself. What I love about him the most is that he really does care about you as a patient and what would be best for YOU! He doesn't fall into all the hype of this treatment or "you need this & that" , that some surgeons get into and therefore you end up spending SO much money on things that in the end, have no factual information to it at all nor are they even necessary! It does go without saying, that not only myself but my friends still keep going back to him. And to me, that says a lot! :) If you want more info or would like to talk to me more about it, just ask! Good luck to you!!

btw- the $7,000 under the cost in this review, is for a LIFT and Augmention! Just an augmentation is $5,000! And he will determine if you need one or both of those!

Did you get a lift the first time as well?
I’m thinking of going with silicone. Did any of your friends get silicone or have they had other procedures done by him?
How was the recovery after the tummy tuck surgery? Did you get breast and TT at the same time? Would you mind sharing the $ for the tummy tuck?

Hi Rosie! No I didn't get a lift the first time, because I was trying to avoid the scarring. I was new to the whole plastic surgery thing and was SO afraid of having scars on my breasts! So he used a high profile implant and tried to naturally lift my breast with where he created the pocket. And it worked! :) In hind sight though, I should've gotten the lift because scars heal & fade and the only person to see a scar is myself & my husband! So who cares! I HIGHLY recommend getting a lift w/ augmentation, IF you need it! So far, all my friends have gotten saline implants! But I do know a few people that have silicone. And honestly, I can't tell the difference. Implants aren't supposed to feel and look like natural breasts and thats a good thing. I honestly, don't like the look of natural breasts! They're squishy and floppy! haha sorry but that's how I feel. I love how my breasts are perky and soft but a little firm. They move around and aren't glued to my chest like one would think! :) My friends have gone to Dr. Harris for Botox, Lipo, Breast Augmentation & he's done my Tummy tuck & did surgery on my hand as well. (He specializes in Hand surgery too, as well as Cosmetic!) ALL of my friends love him and are constantly referring THEIR friends to him. So much that I've run out of business cards of his, I need more! lol He's a wonderful guy too! The recovery from my TT was really great! It wasn't horrific and I was sore, but I managed. I have 4 little boys to take care of, & NO family around to help me out. So I had to do it! If I can do that, then 5 wks later or so get a Breast lift/Aug., then you can do this! ;)
Again, everyone handles surgery differently. I just stayed positive, expected to be sore & uncomfortable (c-sections prepared me for that) and moved around a lot! I think that actually helped me heal faster too! Within reason of course. But a day after surgery I was walking around, cleaned the bathroom (I don't recommend that, I'm slightly crazy, lol) but that's me, I can't just sit in bed for days at a time (nor does my life allow it!).
I didn't get all the surgeries at one time, because his practice operates at a surgery center and there are strict rules for how long a patient can be under anesthesia. I think the max time was 4 hrs. Now, I could've gone to the hospital and he would've done it there, all in one shot! BUT then I'd have to pay hospital fees & stuff like that. It's a lot cheaper doing it at their surgery center, which is great btw- all the staff are wonderful!!! So it's your choice really, totally up to you!
Dr. Harris charges $5,000 for a tummy tuck! But again, i'm sure if you were having multiple procedures, he can give you a total cost for something like that!
At first I was kinda bummed that I couldn't do it all at once, or at least I chose to do my surgeries seperately. But now, I'm glad that I did it separately because it allowed me to deal w/ one issue at a time. Like with a TT, you have drains and and gauze and binder's and all of that. And then w/ the boobies you have tape and bra's and incisions, so it was nice to deal w/ one issue of surgery at a time, heal & then move on. lol
It's by far the BEST best best thing I've ever done for MYSELF!! And Dr. Harris is mostly responsible for that one :)
Any other questions, don't hesitate to ask!

Btw- one last thing about silicone, in case you didn't know, you have to get MRI's yearly or so, to check for any tears/leaks/ruptures of your implant! Because you won't know you have one, unless you do so!
With saline, your breast will just be smaller, lol and your body absorbs the saline at no harm to you! Silicone is more toxic to your body if leaked out. Hence the reason for the MRI> just wanted to inform you of that.
Regardless, whichever implant you choose, I'm sure you'll LOVE them!!
