I'm actually more on the TT area but wanted to post here too! I'm a 38 year old mother of 2 boys (8&9) & I never even considered this surgery until the day before my TT consult, when I was looking at my body in a mirror & wondered when the heck my breasts had gotten that droopy. lol I've always been busty (i'm 5'3 & usually around 135 lbs but sitting at 138 since the holidays), I was a 38DD until losing 45 lbs 2 years ago & now I'm a 36 full C or small D. I chose a lift over a lift with augmentation because I like my current size & definitely dont want to be bigger just wanted that perkiness back. But now that I'm less than 8 hours from surgery I'm wondering if I shouldve went with the implant too!! lol Wish me luck......

Ok I'm not sure if its the fact that I got a TT with the BL or what but I only feel pain on the sides of my breasts & its very tolerable! the breast lift has been awesome, just questioning the size but I'm going to wait the 3 month healing process & re-evaluate. Since this procedure has been so easy I have no probs going thru an augmentation at a later date if I feel that its necessary.

Thanks Angie I will check out the mommy makeover community! :) Mgmom I'm definitley pleased with the perkiness but they do seem considerably smaller to me. My husband thinks they look great but just a warning that they will look a lil uneven at first. lol I can always get an implant if im that unhappy but they should be totally settled at 3 months so I'll see how they look at that point.

I can't wait to see your afters Lisee! I bet you had great results ;-) I am thinking of a lift in the future so I'm gonna have to read more of your story to see how you like everything without getting the implant. I'm like you, I have plenty there, they are just a little droopy after breastfeeding two kids ;-)

Hey Ladies I'll post my 1 week post op pics! I'
My new breasts are starting to grow on ms (no pun intended) at first I was shocked that they appeared so much smaller but I luv how perky they are! I think I was so used to all that extra skin & shoving them into my bras & looking so big for so long! Now that my tummy is flat :)they are looking more appropriate for my body

Ok so I do like the lift. Boobs are perky & recovery was easy. I'm on the fence about implants at the moment but was thrilled that my PS said he wouldve talked me out of getting a BL & BA at teh same time as he doesnt like the vertical scar when the 2 are combined. He said the skin streches for the new implant as will that scar & it becomes fatter. oh well here are some new pics at post op day 11, lemme know what u think

@ Bella I;m not sure lol. just a breast lift but I thiught I had enough breast tissue to maintain a D but had lost 10 lbs before surgery so that might have went agaisnt me as I'm sure I lost some breast tissue as well

I think you look amazing!! I just had my tummy tuck so I won't be getting my lift until next year probably but I definitely want to do it. I'm like you, I think I have a ton of extra skin so that makes me a D cup. After taking that all off, I'm sure I'd be like small C. Not sure if I want to get the implants with it or not.

Bella ur body was amazing pre op & post op your a 10! I have about 10 yrs on you & u are in better shape than me with better boobs (just being honest lol) so I would suggest a lift only but really u look great in ur bra already. I'm 38 & was used to being a saggy D or DD for way too many years but my ps told me that he would've talked me out if doing the lift with an implant as the scar is uglier, wider & more noticeable! U really look awesome as is & u obviously worked out prior to surg so if u feel u need it I would suggest the lift as u will still be natural & ur younger. You can always add the volume later :)

That sweet of you to say Lisee! I wish I thought I was a 10 lol! I do look okay in a bra but a lot of what you see, volume wise, is extra skin. I breastfed both of my kids and my last one I breastfed for 15 months ( I was a double F while breastfeeding). The "girls" have been through a lot lol! Thanks for the advice though! I'm kind of a naturalist, I rarely take medications, I don't drink caffeine, I guess I'm just funny about what I put in my body so the idea of an implant freaked me out anyways ;-)

You look fab! Congrats! I insist on implants with my BL but the no implants worked well for U! Enjoy the new perky girls!
December 25, 2011
Actually Ready I have finally decided that I do want an implant! I was hoping that I had enoughbreast tissue to avoid it but I'm just not happy with the loss in size. Perky is cute but I'm 38 & need just a lilmore sexy lol

You look great! I wouldn't even consider an implant. Your breasts match your small figure. I just had a BR and my scare going down from my nipple and around my nipple is so much more noticeable than yours. You'll be smokin' this summer in your bathing suit!

Thank u super! I peeped your pics & ur tummy looks so smooth, flat & tight! I know you have to be happy with your results! I love my tummy & lift is worth it just wish I would've got the BA too :)

You look fantastic and I'm glad you are having very little pain during the healing. Three months will pass by very quickly and I'd say that since you are only 38 get those implants I am 48 and it has made such difference in how I feel both naked and in clothes just to have that "perkiness" as you say. It perks up your attitude too. ;) That part will be a breeze after what you've had done already. GO FOR IT! I love your figure now!
December 28, 2011
I have decided to go for it! After trying on 20 different shirts from my closet I decided I want my D size back lol. Yes the perky is nice but I also want that size & the option of wearing bras with certain tops. I saw your pics & your results are wonderful

I hope you feel a lift was enough for you! If it helps, your chances for complications are far greater with implants. A tummy tuck with breast lift is also called a Mommy Makeover, so you might want to check out that community here.
