I went to consultation knowing that I did in fact want a breast augmentation. I've wanted one for years. It took me a while to save up for it. I'm 27, mommy of one, and breastfed for a year. I never had much boobs to start with. All throughout middle school and high school I was called "pancake [RS bleep]". I didn't have boobs until I got pregnant and while breastfeeding I was a 38C. I've since lost all my baby weight. I'm 5'3" and 114lbs and my boobs have deflated to a small barely-fill-the-cup 34b. I have no volume at the top of my boobs. They're small and sad looking in my opinion. Anyways my ps and I decided on the silicone 400cc under the muscle inframammary incision. My ps said that he thinks the 400cc will give me a C cup. I was hoping for a D cup but I guess we'll see what happens. My surgery is on the 28th of this month. I'm nervous and excited at the same time. Updated on 24 Jan 2015: I'm trying to figure out how to add pictures here of my pre-op area. Lets see if this works. Updated on 24 Jan 2015: This is a pic of me with the 400cc in my bra. I love it! The ps said that it'll be smaller than it looks there because it'll be placed under the muscle. I'm hoping not that much smaller. I want big boobies! lol Updated on 25 Jan 2015: My mom is one of those judgmental hypocrite types so I've been keeping her in the dark about my upcoming surgery. My brother must have spilled the beans to her even though he promised not to because she has been blowing up my cell phone with angry and dramatic text messages. In the last one that she sent she told me that I'll probably die during surgery and said goodbye. It's making me mad because I'm already feeling nervous about surgery as it is. I already know that it's possible to die during surgery from the anesthesia, even though that is usually caused by a rare hereditary condition. I'm trying not to think about that right now. I am seriously considering blocking my mom's phone number until after surgery because I don't want to be even more nervous than I already am. :-/ Updated on 27 Jan 2015: I was feeling super nervous all day at work. It's funny how as soon as I get home and take a nice, warm bath I'm all relaxed now. My surgery is tomorrow! I'm excited! Updated on 28 Jan 2015: I had my surgery around noon. I was supposed to have it early but I was so anxious that my heart rate was very high. After a few hours the anesthesiologist ordered versed(sp?) and then they wheeled me to the OR. The last thing I remember is the anesthesiologist saying that he was putting stuff in my I.V. to make me go to sleep. I felt a burning sensation. The room started spinning and I went out. I woke up in recovery room thirsty and in a lot of pain. I am going to be honest here. This is the worst pain that I've ever felt before in my life. It hurts to move at all and the car ride home sucked so bad. No nausea or vomiting. I am eating chicken lemon rice soup, applesauce, and water. The pain from my armpit, through my breast that feels like two heavy bowling balls, and my breastbone hurts. It hurts to breathe in. I hate this. I don't think I would've got the surgery had I known it was going to be this bad and this is coming from someone who went through natural childbirth I'd NEVER have went through the surgery. I'm not trying to scare anybody. I'm just being honest. Everyone's experience is different. I hope the pain reduces soon. Updated on 29 Jan 2015: I feel the same as yesterday but I've been getting up and walking around. I have spams in my right breast each time. They suck. I'm hoping it gets better. Here's a picture. It looks weird but I have the dressings on and was too scared to remove them. Excuse the greasy hair. I need someone to dry shampoo my hair. Updated on 30 Jan 2015: The friend that I had staying with me since surgery had to go back to work this morning so I'm on my own for the next 12 hours. So far I have been doing alright. I got up out of bed alone and set my alarm so that I can take my medications. It seems like the pain is getting easier to manage now. For those of you who have had children it feels as though my breasts are engorged with breast milk that needs to be expressed, the heavy feeling. I get random zingers in my right breast every time I sit down from walking around but I am confident that the pain will improve even more. I took another picture of my boobies. :-) Updated on 1 Feb 2015: My mom came around yesterday and was nice to me. I was surprised that she wasn't being mean to me for having decided to get breast implants. She visited me and brought chocolate, a heart shaped balloon, slippers, and a zebra print top. She said that she would've brought me a bra but she didn't know what size I'd wear. I have a 36D Under Armour sports bra that fits me right now. My brother also visited and brought me food. I like when people visit and bring me things! Lol :-) On the downside I made the mistake of allowing my aunt in when she showed up unannounced at my door. 14 pain pills ended up missing once she left and she had nerve to ask me for 6 more. Now all I have is one pain pill left and I'm trying my hardest not to use it. I can't believe how selfish addicts are. It makes me so mad when I cannot even trust a relative. On the plus side I have made it through today with just extra strength Tylenol. Has anyone had constipation? I haven't had a bm since the day of surgery. It's been 4 days and my tummy is gassy and bloated. :-/ Updated on 3 Feb 2015: I went to my post op appointment yesterday. My ps said that everything looked fine. I'm no longer on any pain meds and I finally pooped. Woohoo! Lol. My boobs still get the engorged feeling but it's bearable. The only thing that is driving me nuts are the itchy incisions. It has been itching so bad all day and night. I put ice on it as temporary relief. I will be so glad when the incisions are healed and stitches removed. Updated on 4 Feb 2015: It's after 3pm and I've somehow managed to make it through the day without a nap. I tried to be productive today. I did the dishes for the first time post op. I have a side gig that I sometimes work at from home. I worked for a whole 3 hours before I just got too exhausted and laid down in bed. I took a shower hoping that would help me feel refreshed but that just seemed to make me feel even lazier. I'm cooking my first meal post op(I've been eating a lot of carry out lately). The struggle is real. Lol. I took 2 new pics of the girls. Also, I was cleaning out my purse and came across my Sientra identification card that says the size of my implants. It turns out I have 415cc high profile instead of 400cc although I'm sure that 15cc doesn't make much a difference. When I look in the mirror I am very happy with the size. :) Updated on 6 Feb 2015: This morning my nipples feel extremely sensitive for some reason. It might be because I am due for my period to start. All I know is I accidentally brushed them against my blanket while getting out of bed and it felt like they'd been dragged through broken glass, thousands of needles, or some other painfully sharp object. That combined with my aching right arm I said screw trying to deal with clients right now. I don't know how I'd be able to act all cheerful. Maybe I'll feel better on Monday. It I'm right handed Updated on 9 Feb 2015: I wonder if surgery can mess with female hormones or if maybe my body is just being weird. For some reason my chest area has been breaking out bad. It's gross and embarrassing. I hope it clears up before bikini season. :-/ Also, tmi territory but my period was due to start a few days ago. This morning I had pink discharge. I thought that it was my period starting but by afternoon it had stopped. No cramping which is highly unusual for me since I am one of those unlucky ladies who always gets terrible cramps on the first day complete with nausea, vomiting, and fainting. The only other time I've ever had pink discharge like this is when I was pregnant, but there is no way possible that I'm pregnant. I don't know what to make of this. I'm thinking that aunt flow is just messing with me and going to hit me big time later on. :-/ Anyone else experience either of these issues? Updated on 11 Feb 2015: My period ended up starting full force. Also, my daughter has a runny nose and cough but no fever. Her doctor said it's just a virus. Last night my throat started to feel scratchy, stuffy nose, sinus pain, sneezing, and my chest feels congested. It looks like I caught her cold. :( My boobs are still looking good at least. Updated on 17 Feb 2015: After an alert from my bank that I am reaching my minimum balance, I've decided that I must go back to work. I know that physical labor jobs are supposed to be 6 weeks off(I work in a warehouse) but I can't afford to take any more time off from my main job. My second job decided that instead of paying us each week they're going to pay us twice a month. That's bogus. I can't sit around waiting that long Any more unpaid time off would be suicide. I'm a single mom. I have rent, bills, groceries, and a daughter to worry about. I'll be 3 weeks post op tomorrow and I'm going back to work in the morning. I'm not looking forward to it but I have to do it. On the bright side I will have a short 3 day work week so my first week back will not be too hard on me(hopefully). I'm sure I could use the allure of my new boobs to my advantage to get my male co-workers to lift and move the heavy items for me at work. I have to focus on the positive. Updated on 19 Feb 2015: The boobs are still doing well, aside from what feels like an air bubble near my incision on the right side. They look symmetrical, no bruising, or any physical signs that anything is wrong, even in the spot where I feel the air bubble. It's so weird. I feel like I am experiencing boobie greed though. I have on my 36D Under Armour sports bra today and I notice that it is not as snug as it was when I first wore it. :-( I don't want my boobies to get smaller. Please, boobies stay at a D cup. Updated on 3 Mar 2015: I had a post op appointment last Monday. The air bubble thing that I had near my incision went away, as my PS said that it would. I am so glad because it was freaking me out. I've been doing good, boobs seem to have softened instead of being hard. The only issues I've been having are hypersensitive nipples and the gap between my boobs. I wish I'd actually get some cleavage instead of that huge gap between my boobs. I've been doing the massages to push them inward. I bought new bra's but they're still the boring wire free, non-push up sports bra kind. I will be so happy when I can finally wear a normal bra. I really want to go on a Victoria's Secret shopping spree and I want to see what my final size is. I'm still hoping that they are a D. Updated on 13 Mar 2015: I know it's supposed to be still too early to know the final size but I want to buy new normal(non sports bra) bra's so bad! I happened to have a 36C bra from pre-op when I used to wear another bra with lots of padding under the 36C bra. I tried it on and my boobs caused the middle of the bra to nearly split. I looked online at bra size calculators according to bust and underbust and I'm getting so many different size calculations based on my measurements that it's driving me insane. My bust area is currently at 37 and under the bust is 30. One calculator said that I'm a 34E, another said 34C, and one that was ridiculous said 30G. I'm so confused on how to figure out boob measurements. My boobs look small to me. I'm having a serious case of boobie greed, I think because I am wishing that I went bigger and I'm wondering if my boobs will ever move closer together so that I can have cleavage. They look too far apart. Updated on 24 Mar 2015: I ended up going bra shopping and that was a much difficult task than I'd thought it would be. Pre-BA I'd actively seek out the padded bra's. Now it seems like a job in itself to find a bra that is not heavily padded, a sports bra, or something that an old granny would wear. Buying a bra with padding seems like it would just defeat the purpose of why I even got my BA in the first place. I wasn't sure what size to try so whenever I found a bra that I liked I just grabbed different sizes to try on. I managed to find a pretty pink flowery bra. It was a 32D and fit me great. Of course I was unable to find any more bra's of that size so I went to a different store. They also did not carry a 32D but a lady there told me that I should try 36C. After the 36C bra incident in my previous post, I was wary of trying a 36C but when I put on the 36C at the store it seemed to fit good. 36D was a little too big. I went to a different store and of course they didn't have 32D or 36C but they did have a 34D that fit well. I'm totally lost on what my bra size is. I guess each brand can vary in size and I'll have to keep trying different sizes on. Also, I may have to accept the fact that my cleavage is not going to move closer together. I've been doing the massages to try to push them closer together but my cleavage gap is still 3 finger width apart. Updated on 11 Apr 2015: I had a post op appointment this past Monday. Ps said that all looks great and sent me home with Mederma scar cream. I don't have another post op appointment again for another year now. I am really loving that I no longer have to wear heavily padded bras and padding to make it look like I'm busty. I love that I feel like I look more like a woman instead of a little girl. I also love the stares that I get now. I guess you can say that I'm loving the boobie attention lol :) Updated on 23 Mar 2017: It's been a couple years now since I got BA. Aside from hypertrophic scars in my underboob crease(where incisions were), everything has been smooth sailing. I am still loving my boobs, glad I got them done. :) These pictures are from a recent photo shoot.

I am a 33 year female who is having Smart Lipo on the stomach, flanks, and bra line. My surgery is tomorrow and I have everything prepared for tomorrow. I am feeling a little nervous but excited. My stomach has always been a problem area for me. I have done my research and after reading the reviews I am looking forward to tomorrow. Updated on 26 Jun 2013: It has been 6 days since my smart Lipo on lower and upper abdomen and flanks. I am still happy with my decision. I was under anesthesia during my surgery which was my choice because I couldn't imagine being awake. I slept the rest of the day after surgery and on and off day 2. By day 3 I was feeling pretty good and my pain was controlled by Tylenol. I am getting around really well, I am definitely sore and can't wait for my swelling to go down so I can see my results.

I'm about 5'7 142 lbs 39 years old with no children. I got my boobs done when I was 20 years old. I have saline under the muscle and I got them done so long ago that my dr doesn't have record of how many ccs I have. He guessed at 400 ccs allergen brand (if I spelled that right) I scheduled an appt for replacing my implants with my original surgeon for July 16. I'm going to need pocket revision and he talked about adding 50ccs. He suggested silicone but I have hashimotos autoimmune disease so I feel safer sticking w/saline. I honestly loved my boobs most of this time. Even now I don't hate them. But I really notice the problems when I look at my pics more then in real life. When I lay down my right breast falls towards my armpit and leaves a dent in my cleavage. Also one boob never settled as low as the other. I'm hoping this surgery will leave me more symmetrical!! Anyone have any advice please let me know what u think about size? Only going up 50 ccs.Updated on 23 May 2017: These pics make problems more obvious, honestly I don't notice this much of a difference when I'm looking at myself!!!Updated on 23 May 2017: Opinions on what I should ask dr for!! Updated on 24 May 2017: Not sure what caused the recent changes. I've gained about 6/7 lbs. Not sure if that's causing some changes or if it's just the stretched pocket on the right implant. Updated on 24 May 2017: Breast looked much more evenUpdated on 30 May 2017: Okay so I originally was on RealSelf doing a review for bbl that I was never able to get bc I only have enough money for boobs or butt and replacing boobs is necessary at this point. Wish I could do it all!! Fisher and Hasan were 2 drs I followed closely and after being on here a couple years I've seen the name of the surgical center they work for change names 4-5 times at least. Sooooo shady. Make mistakes change names.... TF!!??? Anywho... I need advice from y'all about surgery. It's been so long, 19 years since my first surgery!! I don't know if this surgery will be as painful as the first? I'm taking 9 days off work. Hopefully that's enough!! Updated on 8 Jun 2017: I have another appt before my surgery just to be clear on the plan!! I have major anxiety!!! Hopefully talking to the dr one more time will ease my mind. Also I have an endocrinologist appointment coming soon so I'll discuss surgery w/him also. Updated on 29 Jun 2017: Today I made my final payment to Dr Gupta. I went in w/a list of questions. I asked if I'd be symmetrical after surgury. He said that I prob wasn't symmetrical to start with. It would be nice if he had my first pics on file but he doesn't. He said the pics I took aren't accurate and on a strange angle. I asked if he could make my scars better, he said he'd try. I asked bout adjusting pockets. I don't feel like our communication was clear but I remember it kinda feeling that way the first time but I was happy w/the outcome. Except one did stay kinda high. I'm just concerned bc I want to be symmetrical. One looks bigger and we're not sure if it actually is or if it's bc it slipped out of the pocket. I just wanted a game plan of what needed to be done and I don't feel that really happened. I guess he will make his choice after he gets started and see what needs to be done. I'm so nervous!! I'm officially done smoking weed today til after I'm healed. Which doesn't help w/anxiety!!! Lol! He said the plan is 450ccs, a tiny bit bigger than what he estimates I have now.Updated on 16 Jul 2017: Today is Sunday and my surgery is Wednesday! It came up so fast. I've done nothing to prepare except buy a pair of shorts that slip on easily and a v neck t shirt for the day of surgery. I'm beyond nervous. Do not remember feeling his way the first time around!! Updated on 20 Jul 2017: I went in at 6:15 am my surgery started around 7:30. When I got there they took me back and gave me a pregnancy test then I got changed. They came in and asked me some health questions. I was super nervous and everyone could tell and was telling me I'd be fine. The lady who did my iv was rude asked me if I still got periods and I told her yes I'm only 39 and she said well I'm 47 but I have really good genes. Then she used the largest gage iv in my hand and yelled at me, said I was fighting her bc I must have pulled away bc it was hurting bad. She said I had tough skin which I thought was another rude comment especially bc I get told my skin is so soft by the young girls I work with and by people receiving facials from me lol! Dr Gupta came in and I told him I wanted one pocket tightened and the other lowered. He marked my scar on the nipple that wasn't as good to revise it. I told him only add the 50ccs if it wouldn't have any negative effects. And he started to walk out and I yelled give me good boobs dr Gupta! He smiled. A super cool guy named Bob came in and held my feet telling me to relax and got me a "cocktail" of pills. Then they started rolling me down the hall. Gave me a mask and I breathed a little and said whoa. Then I woke up in recovery. I was shivering uncontrollably and they kept adding blankets then a machine with a tube blowing hot air under my blankets which really helped. They called my man to pick me up @ 930am. Got me dressed. The people in recovery were amazing!!! The lady getting me dressed was so kind and pretty. She told me my original implants were only 325 which dr Gupta estimated they were 400ccs. She said he went up to 450ccs. Which I'm not sure how I feel about that. She told my boyfriend my boobs look great and kinda showed us what she could like the top part that's not in the bra and bandaged. The guys were so nice telling me I looked great and didn't look like I just had surgery and my eyes weren't puffy. The guy who wheeled me out told me he loved my pumas and he told my man I could keep the blanket if I was still cold! I loved everyone except iv lady lol!!! I'm in a lot more pain on the right side prob bc the pocket was tightened. Sleeping sitting up has me sleep deprived!! I'm swollen and look uneven rn but that could be gauze or swelling so I'm not gonna worry. Monday I go see dr Gupta and get bandage off so I'll update them. Any questions feel free to ask!!!Updated on 20 Jul 2017: Updated on 24 Jul 2017: Today was my post op w/dr Gupta. I finally saw my boobs. I'm not feeling myself at all. He said I looked good. Ik I'm only 5 days post op no things will change but rn I can't help but feel like a mess. The breast that rode high and appeared smaller had a capsular contracture which I always thought was a possibility even tho it wasn't hard to the touch. He removed scar tissue that was like a piece of cardboard he said. That breast looks amazing but now I have the worry that capsular contracture can happen again. The other breast that use to appear larger that had the stretched pocket is now the breast I'm concerned with when it use to be the better looking boob. It has an odd shape at the fold. He said he over corrected it to stop future problems. I hope and pray it drops and looks normal. My nipples are pointing outward. I feel like I switched problems. Now the boob that was high is good and the boob that was low is high. I'm having a bad day. Hopefully time changes things. I took a shower and removed tape on my nipples. My bottom of my boobs is numb rn. I felt nauseous in the shower. I bought 34DD knockout front zip vs sports bra and it was too small. He told me to get regular pull over sports bra. So I exchanged and got large. It was hell lifting my arms to get it on and I needed help. I got the ok to go back to work Saturday which would be 9 days post op. Please give HONEST input or advice on pics I post. Updated on 25 Jul 2017: Feeling much better today. Swelling went down. Stomach bloat went down some. Boobs look more normal, far from perfect but so pleased with the progress from yesterday til today! I'll post update pics Wednesday after stitches come out! Updated on 26 Jul 2017: Slept flat on my back a little instead of propped up. It felt ok. My swelling is going down and I'm not in pain. Just achey all over, prob partially from sleeping sitting up and partially bc I have hashimotos lol. I haven't gotten my energy back and I start back to work Saturday...ugh! I've been sleeping a lot. Boobs are looking better everyday. I may have panicked a little when I first saw them. I felt like Frankenstein boobs ???? Updated on 27 Jul 2017: I hope I'm not doing too much. Opening doors and doing laundry permitted 1 week post op? I'm a hyper person by nature and even tho this surgery has my energy level down I'm pretty active 1 week later. Also going back to work Saturday, I'm an esthetician. Doing facials and makeup okay? I have to open wall cabinets serveral times during facials. Will that be okay 9 days po? I haven't got much support on this review lol. I do have couple good real self friends tho thank u to those 2 people that have been here for me!!!! Updated on 28 Jul 2017: I have 2 Victoria secret sports bras size large...no boob support tight in the boobs loose in the band underneath and band digs into boobs bc it isn't long enough. Then I have a Columbia sports bra padded with cups and front zip closure no underwire. And my hideous surgical bra sucks. I need help. None of these are comfortable at all. My shoulders and back hurt and my posture looks bad. Any bra suggestions? Updated on 29 Jul 2017: Today was my first day back to work. This morning I felt like I was gonna pass out in the shower. I saw orbs of light and my hearing went away. But I got out and composed myself. I did 2 mini facials at work and it wasn't painful. Needed help opening wall cabinets bc it's too much pulling. By the time I left work I had a migraine and felt exhausted. Now my throat is killing me. I'm afraid I'll end up with another capsular contracture if I'm sick!!!! Updated on 1 Aug 2017: My incisions were healing a lot so pulling the stitches out felt like my nipples were being ripped off lol!! My boobs look really good now! Still a little bruising on the left one. When my incisions heal a little more I'm going to start scar treatment. My boobs are still sore. I had sex very calm sex yesterday 13 days post op. Dr Gupta approved. He's very lax on his aftercare. I see other drs are much more strict. Don't know if this is good or bad. I'm somewhat worried about capsular contracture returning bc he used the same pocket and only removed scar tissue. Fingers crossed that all will be good. My boobs feel like balloons and are numb at the bottoms. Hopefully with time they get a lot softer, they felt good before. Updated on 3 Aug 2017: Hey first time I got implants I didn't do anything for my scars nd they healed pretty good but this time around I'm gonna use something. Just waiting for incisions to be completely closed. Any advice on what work best. My incisions are on my nipples. Updated on 4 Aug 2017: I drove myself to work today. It sucked. I'm sore! I feel like my boobs look swollen again. I have bruises on one nipple, I think it's from him pulling the stitches out. Some days I'm happy and other days I feel like I'm going backwards in my recovery. I just wanna be outta the cautious stage and live my life as usual. My left breast that I had the cc in feels slightly firmer than the right but I don't wanna jump to conclusions. Since the scar tissue was removed it prob needs more healing. I'm just over this lol!!! Updated on 4 Aug 2017: More pics opinions please!Updated on 4 Aug 2017: PicsUpdated on 8 Aug 2017: Tomorrow is my monthly vit B shot, is it a issue 3 weeks post breast aug. history of cc don't want any issues and ik some supplements aren't ok. Just wondering if this is the same? Tried on bathing suit today. Went from medium to large. Not a huge size difference. Too bad I didn't get stomach and bra roll lipo smh my body needs work!Updated on 16 Aug 2017: So ik I've been up and down a lot. But things are looking better. Swelling in boobs and on sides is gone. Small amount of bruising on lower part of boobs. Still pain when reaching under right armpit where pocket was tightened. I can't wait to wear a regular bra. When is it time to get fitted for new size? How many weeks post op? My only worry is my nipples. They seem to be a little dented underneath the nipple. Tell me what u guys think. Updated on 30 Aug 2017: He looked at me and squeezed my boobs together and said ok. lol!! I'm happy with my results at this point. Nipples need a few more months for scars to lighten and soften. He said I can sleep braless which I really would rather not. He said I can wear a regular bra. As soon as I'm not broke I'll buy some lol. Lisa his esthetician/nurse said "they dropped!!!!" When she saw me! :) I have some soreness. I think from sex honestly...I told him don't be jiggling my new boobs everywhere but he didn't listen. Any questions ask away!! I have a pic from today. I'll post more soon!!! Updated on 1 Sep 2017: Using silicone scar gel. I forget the name and I'm in the bathtub posting this lol!!! Updated on 3 Sep 2017: At emergency room now. For 2 days I've had shivers and sweats. Feels like I ate razor blades. I have strep throat. Which is strange bc I felt like I was getting it a while back then symptoms went away. Please don't let me have problems with my implants now!!Updated on 4 Sep 2017: I got liquid steroid to stop the closing of my throat and a nice shot of penicillin in my thigh. If anyone has had one they know it's painful. Honestly all I'm worried about is my boobs. Pray for me girls!! Updated on 9 Sep 2017: My left breast is a little dented under nipple incision and purplish in color. This is also the breast that had cc and scar tissue removed. Can u guys see what I'm talking about?Updated on 12 Sep 2017: I took a couple pics today when I went tanning (Ik it's horrible). Also I wanted to show he scar treatment I'm using. One of my scars has a hard spot ugh!!Updated on 19 Sep 2017: At this point I'm still sleeping in a bra. Just like a bralette sometimes but always something. I went out once without a bra for a few hours bc of the shirt I was wearing but other than that and when I'm showering I wear a bra. I sleep on my side most of the night. I have zero pain. My boobs are soft and have dropped. My indent near my nipple looks better and purplish color is almost gone. My nipple feeling is coming back, for a while only one nipple would get hard and I was wondering when and if the other would start working again lol. I'm back to life as normal. Not working out but only bc after work I'm too lazy. Soooo far so good ;)Updated on 24 Sep 2017: So I have strep again or never really kicked it. I'm now on the z pack. Hopefully this second dose of antibiotics gets rid of this crap. I can't help but be worried about my boobs with this ongoing infection. I don't know if surgery lowered my immune system or what. I don't normally get sick like this. Wish me luck everyone!Updated on 26 Sep 2017: This is one of my sports bras from before new boobs. Size medium...def bursting out lolUpdated on 3 Oct 2017: I've been getting some pains in my left boob. Not sure if it's nerves reconnecting or not. My 105 lb dog also pulled on the leash. But I was getting pain before that. I may be over doing it at work. I dunno Updated on 15 Oct 2017: So maxi climbers were on sale and I got one. U use your arms so I was kinda worried but I've waited long enough to feel safe working out. Btw that thing gets the heart rate up! And sore calves. Def need to build my endurance up. I need a bbl or to work out hard to really get the body I want. My belly is a little chunky and fat arms. I don't want these big boobs to make me look bigger. I want to look curvy. My boobs were a little sore after working out. Nothing bad tho! Updated on 16 Oct 2017: I've noticed a small dent when I lay back in my right breast in the cleavage. This is where I had a big dent before bc the pocket had stretched allowing implant to slide towards my armpit. He tightened the pocket and things were looking perfect until recently. Still barely noticeable when laying down. And things look perfect in upright position but I can't help but to think if things already shifted what's the future going to look like. Especially with these bigger heavier implants. I'm a side sleeper and I'm sure it's had some effect. I wish I would have stayed on my back longer but it's super uncomfortable for me. Feeling kinda discouraged rn. Updated on 20 Oct 2017: I'm 3 mos post opp and these pics show my scars which I'm happy with at this point and also a pic laying down shows my concern that the pocket repair may not be holding. My one boob still goes into my armpit more than the other when I lay down. Can u guys see what I'm seeing?Updated on 11 Nov 2017: I've seriously been thinking about a little Botox and filler in my face! I've thought about it a lot but I'm so afraid to touch my face...especially bc I have hashimotos autoimmune disease. How do I find the best person to give injections. There aren't many reviews on Michigan drs. Updated on 13 Nov 2017: Ever since I had my surgery I've been sick off and on. My throat is super sore and red. My head hurts and I'm achy all over. Usually my immune system is stronger... every time I get sick I have to worry bout getting capsular contracture, this is truly upsetting!Updated on 15 Nov 2017: I went to my 3.5 month post op appointment today. Everything is good. I told dr Gupta I thought the implant may have shifted slightly. He said everything looks good and so did his nurse Lisa. I love Lisa btw!! She's super nice and I feel like I can trust her opinion. I'm happy with my results. My boobs look and feel great. My scars aren't too bad and really don't bother me much. Hopefully they fade more. Now If I could get my stomach in shape I might be semi happy with my body lol. Updated on 15 Nov 2017: Updated on 4 Dec 2017: Even tho not many people comment on my pics, I'm posting some new photos for the lurkers lol ;)))))Updated on 14 Dec 2017: I'm past 4 months po. Everything is good. I have occasional pain or soreness if I over do things. I feel I'm completely healed at this point. My boobs are soft and feel like the ones I had for 20 years. They look much better tho!! Lol. Updated on 24 Dec 2017: I hope everyone has an amazing holiday!!! Updated on 25 Jan 2018: So I’ve been watching the scar under my right nipple and the tethering or dent is getting a little worse. I can feel some scar issue. I tried to get a good pic of it but it didn’t really show in the pic. Also my gland under my right armpit is extremely swollen. I have an uti at the moment and am on antibiotics. Every time I get an infection I’m terrified of capsular contracture. I’m feeling a bit down rn. I’ve gained 10 lbs and not feeling myself at all. I really wish I could do bbl or at least 360 lipo on back and stomach. I weigh 149 and I’m 5’7” so it’s not considered over weight but being almost 40 means I’m carrying a lot in my belly. Ugh just needed a place to vent!! oxox Updated on 27 Feb 2018: The dent in my nipple hasn’t gotten better or worse. I’ve been massaging it. Not as much as I should. I can live with it. But I’m not thrilled. My scars don’t look great. :/ but all in all I’m happy. I may get my scar released. I haven’t seen my dr about it yet. I still feel the pocket wasn’t tightened enough bc I have some rippling in my cleavage where the dent use to beUpdated on 10 Mar 2018: Right nipple is not going to resolve on it’s own. I’m thinking about having my surgeon do the scar release. It’s really hard to capture the problem in a picture. I think I feel a small area of scar tissue like a marble but smaller under my incision sight. :( Updated on 14 Mar 2018: I’m going to be 40 soon. Real soon. And my weight is uppppp. Damn if I had the money it would be a perfect time for a bbl. plenty to transfer! Ugh. Not feeling myself at all. Except my booty. Always like my butt best when I hate the rest of my body. Fml. My boobs look small on my big body at this point ???? I thought I’d get my new boobs and look better. Now I have new boobs with a guy fat arms and bra rolls on my back. Updated on 31 Jul 2018: 1 year post op pics
