Well, let me start with saying I just got revisionary surgery on February 6, 2014. My previous surgery was done exactly a year ago (click here to read my review). After being small my entire life, I finally decided to lose the weight I had gained over the years and feel better about myself I decided to get my original surgery last year. My breast were not even, needed a breast lift after 2 kids, and wanted a natural look so I decided to go with silicone 523 right breast and 492 left. I also had a lollipop breast lift too. After 1 year of having them, and losing additional 20 lbs and working out with personal trainer and gym my body changed and I wasn't happy with my look so I decided that I wanted to go bigger,rounder, and bigger on top. this time I decided to go with saline with moderate plus to achieve my look. It has been 2 days and I feel good. Up and about already. A lot easier than last time. I don't know what they look like but I can't wait. I am extremely bloated. Up 6lbs since surgery but I know it is just water.. I will post all my photos before 1st augmentation and my second soon. I love my doctor and his work and would highly recommend him. I trusted his judgment on size and I am sure I will love the outcome. Will be going for follow-up this Monday. Haven't taken any pain meds yet today and I feel good at the moment.

I'm so happy to hear your recovery for your revision is going well so far. Congratulations on the additional weight loss and your new look. Do you think your original BA inspired you to lost the extra 20 lbs? You're right, don't worry about the weight gain...it will subside soon. Can't wait for your photos...I bet you look awesome!

Were you able to wear a "prettier bra" for your Valentine's date? I really like your comment on 2/16 to @4mymidlifecrisis. Very sound advice. Don't worry about the marker on your body...so many photos posted on RealSelf are full of marked up boobs. ;)

No pretty bra. Sport bra covered straps with my hair Ridiculous I know. I'm so vain. Waiting for my husband to help me post my pics. I'm not very good at posting the pics I will bug him again when he comes home tonight.

You're so lucky you have a lot of long hair to cover your sports bra straps in your pretty Valentine's day dress! Thanks for posting the pics. You look so amazing compared to your before pics. I'm so happy for you! My only advice is to take it easy for a while. Try not to work out too hard. Your body is still healing and you can get back to your exercises over time. Love your updates...thanks so much!

Thank you so much. I just got back from the gym. Did 60 mins and I feel really good. I will see how I feel tomorrow. Will post some more pics this week. Boobs are getting to look even better even though right one still hurts.

I just got back from Doctor. Healing nicely. Didn't get to see them conpletely out because he wants me to leave them in bra a few more days for healing. Saw my after pictures after surgery and I absolutely love them. Just what I wanted. Nice and full and round with alot of cleavage. Had pics being sent by doctor so I can post them. Can at least wear a sportsbra by Friday for my dinner date and concert for Valentines Day and can 't wait. Pain not bad and felt good to get out and get fresh air.

Congratulations on your surgery. I am planning on having a breast lift with augmentation this summer. I am really having a hard time trying to decide between saline and silicon. I saw that you originally had silicon and then went with saline. Would you mind sharing the reason for your choice in a bit more detail? Thank you and I hope that you have a speedy recovery! Congratulations on the weight loss as well!!!

Hi. Thank you. When I originally decided to get it done I choose silicone because I wanted a natural look and to me they looked more real and felt softer. My left breast was an a very small b cup and right was an a cup. I felt like they were both A's though. Since I had very little breast tissue I decided I wanted more natural so I went with silicone but after losing and working out with trainer my body changed and of course implants moved and I lost the top fullness and side fullness I wanted. After a year I decided I wanted bigger, more round, fuller on top, more deep cleavage so to get the look I wanted I went to saline. It is personal preference really. It is the look you are trying to achieve. At this stage of my life I just wanted a different look then I originally thought. I am trying to load before and after pics. Unfortunately, I have one pic of before augs and just 1 with silicone. Computer lost them all. After. 1 st surgery i had 492 n left n 523 n right n now I have 950 cc n left n 1000 cc n right. Big difference n I am excited about results. They came si nice and at first i thought they would b too big but so far I love them. The silicone attach to your muscle wall n saline don 't so the silicone look more natural. I would worry about the shape and where they are placed then if you want saline or silcone. Find pics of the shape you want and the look you are achieving then decide if u want the more natural look. I wil try to post some pics today. If you have any questions I can answer don 't hesitate.

Had some pain on Friday so Doctor called and gave me more pain meds. Just the right boob and shooting pain down the cleavage area. Didn't stop me from enjoying my Valentines concert. Got a cute dress but had to wear a tight sportsbra and hide the straps with my hair but boobs hurt without it. Went back to work on Saturday, I am a dog groomer, so physically draining Husband bathed and carried all of them but totally exhausted by end of day. As long as I keep them tightly wrapped up, they feel fine but when I take them out they hurt and husband gets so excited. Hopefully at two week post-op appointment on Thursday I will finally get the steri strips off Have to put waterproof bandaids over strips. Totally a pain but I know it is going to be worth it.
