Hi ladies,
Just a quick post and picture update. I'm still thrilled with the outcome and have finally had a summer where I wasn't completely self conscious wearing summer shirts, t-shirts and swimming suits! My neck and back pain is much better. I rarely get headaches anymore either. I still get a few zings here and there, but nothing crazy. I have even started jogging! If you're reading this and unsure about this surgery, I highly recommend it and would be happy to answer any questions you might have.
Best of luck to you!

Almost 4 weeks post op (3 weeks post-hematoma drain). Things are healing pretty good I still feel a bit uneven, but the PS says it's because I'm a week further along on one side and to just give everything some time to settle. I'm definitely happy with the size though and have been pretty comfortable wearing an Ahhh Bra.
New pictures added of incisions and overall shape and size. These were taken 3 weeks post op.
Happy Thanksgiving!!

Hi, My story is very similar to yours so I won't repeat as you know exactly what it feels like to be so big and heavy boob wise. I had my surgery 5th Oct 2012.I am seven weeks post surgery. I was petrified before the op and could not bring myself to think about what the surgery involved exactly so I focused 100% on what i would feel and look like afterwards and being able to buy clothes that would fit me and also that my body proportions would look somewhat normal..... I'm never going to be a stick insect.... but at least I don't look top heavy anymore, sooooooo happy. It was so unfortunate for you to have the haematoma, that must have been so awful. I'm so glad your on the mend. I regret not doing the before and after pics like the others have on this website. Your new boobies look amazing. I myself feel like a different woman and I wish I had done it years ago but only recently had a back injury with lots of upper back pain which has brought me to the decision to have this surgery done. Well done to all the ladies out there who make the decision to have this operation done. I sincerley hope that all went well for them too. It has certainly been the best decision I made. Kindest regards from Val

Hi Val, congrats on being 7 weeks post op! I feel like a new woman too and I've realized that I don't know how to dress anymore, but it's fun trying new outfits and tops that I never would have tried before...and to not be spilling out of everything! I don't have a SO to tell me I look good so thanks for the compliment. You ladies here are the only feedback I get on how I look as I've been too shy to show anyone else. I feel good though! Yay for us for having the courage to do this for ourselves! Take care. :)

Thanks, Mia! Things are going well except for a slight rash on my upper belly. I think it's from the elastic band in the Ahh Bra so I'm taking a break from wearing it. Incisions are a bit more red too, but I'm guessing that's temporary. It was a busy weekend with the holidays and I could feel things pulling a bit. I'm feeling so much better and lighter that it's hard to remember I'm still healing and to take it as easy as I should! Hope all is well with you!
