Embracing "flaws" as uniqueness - boston, ma

Aw thanks! I go back and forth on it all the time. Most of the time I'm happy with it and then there are those times when i see a bad pic of myself and it's devistation. I'd hate to jump into anything and make a mistake, so far from what I'm seeing it's kind of a mixed bag of good and bad experiences. . . some love their surgery and others totally regret it. and yes to the boobies, they're awesome sauce ;) love em!

Yeah, it's definitely a mixed bag. My primary was less than good. And many people have breathing issues, stuffy/dry nose issues afterwards and irregularities. I think your nose is super perfect. Aaaand your new OO are amazing!!! I'm a 34B, although I can often fit into a 36A, so I often dream about a nice full C/D :)).

yeah I've heard that, how are you feeling with your revision? Implants are great, totally changed my self confidence and now feel like a "complete" person. I literally had nothing (32A) and now I'm wearing 32DD or 30E which is crazy. My goal was to be a large B or C cup. There are still some trade offs with implants, like nipple sensitivity (my nipples feel totally different than before) and numbness (about 1/4 of my breasts are still numb and at this point will probably always be) but its totally worth it in my opinion. Its funny because before my BA I couldn't fit into any Victoria's Secret bras and now after I still can't! LOL!

appreciate the fact that the more subtle the change you want done, the harder the surgery, and the greater the risk. I consulted with both of the surgeons you listed and they are nowhere near the caliber you need for the finesse surgery you are looking for.

!!!! Thank you!!! I'm really glad I'm getting feedback on this post because I'm starting to see that rhino is not all its cracked up to be! Did you have a bad experience? I've only had one surgery (boobs) and it's been really positive but I'd be devistation if my face was ruined!

Lol! I'm swollen right now and have a really good bruise. I literally just did a tiny bit in my top lip because I was so nervous but I think after the swelling goes down I'll like them! I'll post pics soon ;) xoxo

Yayyyyyyyyyy!! Congrats!!! What did you get? Juvederm too? Did it hurt? Just ice them as much as you can... Ice helps even days after. Soo happy for you! I bet he did a good job. Dr Darrow is only one... I will go to Dr Kapadia tomorrow. My lips are much better now, but I need a tiny bit more in the corners too.

I think he used restylane because I wasn't sure how I was going to like it. Yeah it hurts a bit at the moment but I think it's more the bruise. I'm icing like a [RS bleep]! I'm glad your lips are getting better! they look so pretty! Did it just need time to soften?

I haven't had soft lips with Dr B like I have now with Dr Kapadia. They use different products. Dr B used Juvederm Ultra Plus which is thicker and longer lasting, more lumpy too, and Dr Kapadia used Juvederm Ultra. My bottom lip is very soft. I'm surprised. I will write a review for Dr Kapadia and post pics. I looked terrible for a week. I freaked. I had huge lump, but I have decided to take a different approach, and to massage them. I kept massaging them, and that helped a ton. Some PS are against massages, some are fine... I figured I don't have anything to lose because I already look terrible.

Restylane is great filler, and for lips, I think it gives more natural results. Did you ask Dr Darrow for massages? You definitely shouldn't massage them if you are bruised. When everything heals, you can ask Dr Darrow if you can apply a gentle pressure on lumps. If they bother you or if they are visible...

Yes Dr. Darrow gave me the low down on all the fillers and how and why they're different. I was like "whatever goes away fastest if I hate it!!" I was so nervous... So happy for you!!! Did he dissolve any bumps you had in the top lip or are they better now? Dr darrow said I should massage it every now and then just to keep it soft but its a little too painful with the bruising at the moment lol. Last night it swelled and I literally looked like a duck, but this morning they look better, still swollen but better and the bruise has also toned down a bit.

I have no doubt he gave you a lesson. That is just great! I bet you were nervous. Tell me about it... Yes... Second and third day are the worst. Good that swelling is going down. As I wrote, I had a huge, but HUGE lump, and it went away with massages. So, try to be patient... I'm sure you look great. When it comes to my upper lip... I will leave like this for another month, and then I will get more from Dr Kapadia (I guess). Dissolving also can cause lumps and bumps and bruising. So, I won't smile like crazy when in public. LMAO!

Yeah! I just saw them! Nice job! Seriously, when swelling goes down, you are going to love them. I don't see that bump, and it is good that you can't see it when you smile. So good! I like it already.

I went for Dr Kapadia today, but he didn't add more. He was so honest, and I liked that a lot. He thinks that my lips are very sensitive, and won't add Juvederm anymore. He will add Restylane Silk in 3 weeks if I need more in corners. And I already feel that I need it, but he thinks that my lips are still inflamed on the right side, so adding more will probably make another lump. So, I will wait 3 more weeks.

And thank you so much for posting!!!

Yes! I love a good honest dr!! Seriously, your lips are friggin killer!! I love the Restylane! I don't have anything to compare it to but it looks so so natural. Keep me posted!! Im adding a few more pics with make up...officially obsessed!!!!!!

Please do!! Thank you so much! Stay in touch! I hope I write a review over the weekend.
