Today is 8 weeks post-op :) Only 1 month, 6 days until I have my augmentation.
Not too much to report on my lift, my scars are not awful. I would say the one in the crease of my breast is the darkest, but it still isn't that bad.
The picture I have today is my new breasts in my swim suit :) I am very happy with how they look, and I cant wait to see how I will look in a swim suit once I get my implants.
LOVE IT!

Wow. Your surgeon did an amazing job.
Thank you so much :)
THANK YOU for posting this and the pictures. So helpful. Im 21 and it seems our stories are basically the same! Ill need a lift and breast augmentation, though i have not been in for consultation yet. So in total, youll be paying approx 10K right? Please update us all once you have the implants! Also, how did you choose your doctor!
Thanks for the comment :) a friend of mine had gone to him for implants and he did an awesome job, and once I looked at the lifts he did in his photo gallery on his website it was a no brained for me to gO with him!
My cost for my lift was about 5,800 and my augmentation with silicone (silicone costs $1000 more than saliene) will be about 5,900 so about $12,000 all together.

So glad to find your blog! I had a council yesterday and was a little disappointed being told it would be two procedures costing $12,000. I really questioned if this was just a way for the Dr. to charge more. My situation is so similar to yours. I am a little nervous of the results from just the breast lift. I feel they will look smaller. What is your opinion. From your photos they look great. Did they stay the same cup size? I feel like reading your blog has helped me understand the reasoning for two procedures. I was about to try to find a Dr. who would do it in one, but that could have been a very bad choice. Thank you!!
I stayed the same cup size, but they look smaller because all the breast tissue is in a smaller amount of skin. I stayed a 34 c before and after my BL.
thanks for posting the pics, it helps so much to see what is coming my way. you look fabulous and don't appear to need implants but I'm sure they will look great.
Just wanted to say you look awesome! Thanks for posting all the pics, it's nice to see how things look a little farther down the road.
You look awesome MsMarie89!! Congratulations! You're after pictures are great and I can only imagine how fun it is to buy new bras and try on new bikinis. If it were me I'd probably have a drawer stuffed with new bras! I feel like I can strongly relate to your before pictures and one of my biggest concerns would be that the areola would be trimmed too small, or would be crooked somehow. That's the first thing I noticed is how great they look in your after pics. Again, I'm really happy/excited for you. Bring on Summer 2012 / bikini season!
Thank you :)
When you get a lift they will sketch the size of your new areola, and if you want it bigger than they can make them bigger.
Since I have gotten my BA they have stretched out some more, which I will be ok with as long as they don't keep getting bigger.

So tomorrow will be 7 weeks since my surgery, and everything has been going smoothly.
I had my second follow-up with Dr. Murphy today and he was very happy with my progress. We had my consult for implants, I told him I would like to be a DD. We decided on silicone memory-gels, and he believes somewhere between 600-750 cc will get me to where I want to be. He does not want to go much bigger otherwise they would be just too big for my body.
I set the date for March 22nd (exactly 3 months after my lift). I was quoted $5,860 for the implants. Silicone costs $900 more than the saline, but they are running a promotion that with the gels you either get 25 units of botox or latisse for you and a friend, and I will get another $145 spa package also.
I am excited :)

i don't think you need to get any implants. they look very natural and big already. jmo :)
Thank you for your comment :) They really are not big, I think the picures make them look bigger than they are.
I am actually ok with them not looking natural. In fact, if I am going to pay $6,000 I want every one to know they are fake lol. :p I figure "go big or go home" in my case.
