Always wanted bigger boobs but life always got in the way. I'm currently 50 years old and retired so now is the perfect time for me to get implants and liposuction. I thought I would be in a lot of pain buy I'm not, the bruises on my thighs hurt more. Updated on 27 Jan 2021: Well I'm at 8 days post op and the last 2 days I've been in so much pain. I thought something was wrong, my chest feels like someone is sitting on it. My doctor said it was normal and that I'm feeling all the pain because the lidocaine he gave me during surgery is now wearing off. Thank God Dr. have me enough pain meds lol Updated on 28 Jan 2021: Visit with doctor today was awesome, I was a little worried because my chest felt so tight and my thighs and abdomen are very warm to the touch. Thank goodness all of that was completely normal. I also don't have to wear the surgical bra any more instead he put a compression band around the top of the chest to encourage my breasts to drop faster and not be sitting so high. I'm so glad I made the decision to get implants and liposuction. Before this I hated my body now when I look in the mirror I love what I see except the scars. Doctor had to make larger incisions because implant was large. Updated on 9 Feb 2021: Well boobs are still high and very sensitive to touch. There is the sensation of pulling on my boob scars and there is also a burning sensation is that normal? Scar under left boob is looking pretty good but left is raised and lumpy. I never forget to use the scar gel and scar tape. Bruises from liposuction are getting lighter but that still hurts a little as well and when I touch that area it feels very lumpy, starting to wonder if that's normal Updated on 18 Feb 2021: Well I had my 30 day post op with Dr. Kinney of Greater Milwaukee Plastic Surgeons and thankfully he said everything was progressing great and things were looking good. I found out all the burning sensation was normal and so are all the lumps and bumps from my liposuction, so that was a huge relief. Was officially measured today and I'm now a 38d and I couldn't be happier especially considering I was only a 38b. I was able to go bra shopping which if course was so fun. Looking forward to bikini shopping in the summer. Hoping by then everything looks good.
Dr Kinney was very professional and extremely caring. I had total confidence in his abilities and was not disappointed. He explains everything that he us going to do and answered all my questions and concerns. He gave me a realistic description of what my results would be and not just what he thought I wanted to hear, which I appreciated. Dr Kinney or his nurse Melissa were always great at returning any calls.
Dr Kinnny did an amazing job on my TT. Everything went smooth with no complications. My waist and stomach look amazing. He was caring and his nurse, Melissa was great at getting back to me with any questions I had before or after my procedure.
Dr Kinney is one of the nicest surgeons I've ever met. He is an expert and I am more than amazed at my results. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a board certified plastic surgeon in Milwaukee.
My whole life I hated that didn't feel like a woman I had no boobies. I was a 34A, I weighed about 110 lbs. no more than that. I always hoped after children I would gain weight and get some boobies but I had no luck. So one day it just hit me I am going to get Breast Implants I can't stand looking like a boy any longer. I would cry anytime I was going to buy a bra because I couldn't find any that would fit me it was depressing. So I scheduled the appointment and went through with the surgery. Dr. Kinney was amazing he made me feel so comfortable and made sure I was choosing the right size for my body. The day came and I woke up with boobies from that day on I have felt amazing I couldn't of been any happier!!! My boobs have been a life changer and I owe it all to Dr. T. Kinney. I have had several other friends that I have referred and they were very impress with their results as well. If you are looking for a doctor I would definitely choose Dr. Kinney @ GMPS in Brookfield.
I am having breast augmentation surgery in two days. I am super excited nervous anxious and all of the above lol I have been a 32a for most of my life after having my last two children and nursing them I have had the luck of fitting a 34b just barley. My breast have lost thier fitness and perkiness. So needless to say since I was 16 I new if I ever had the opportunity to get a boob job (as I used to call it lol) I would definitely do it! So now I am 36 and have the resources to do breast augmentation. I had a consultation on Febuary 6th. I decided I didn't want to go too big as I am on the thin side. So I have decided to go with 425cc silicone under the muscle crease incision. I'm two days away and I'm hopping that I went big enough lol. I didn't want [RS bleep] star blobs I wanted nice size believable blobs. I have been reading lots of blogs on real self and I have seen some similar states so I'm hoping my results are similar. :/ Updated on 26 Feb 2014: Updated on 26 Feb 2014: Updated on 26 Feb 2014: Updated on 26 Feb 2014: Updated on 26 Feb 2014: Updated on 26 Feb 2014: Updated on 26 Feb 2014: I'm very happy with my decission so far. As for pain I was in pain once I woke up after surgery while in the recovery room. They gave me something and the pain was gone almost instantly. Now for day two I purchased one of the back rest seat things from walmart and slept up right so I didn't wake up with morning boob yay! I have been taking the pain pills the surgeon prescribed ever four hours. So no pain unless I'm attempting to sit upright or put any pressure on my arms. I am able to shower and took full advantage of that this morning. Tomorrow is my first post op apt we'll see how it goes. Updated on 2 Mar 2014: Feeling lots of zings and tightness started massages. Updated on 4 Mar 2014: This is day 6 full of zings and tenderness. Fyi make sure that when you go to post op apt you are coherent. So that you can learn how to do the massages. I was in shock after surgent showed me how to massage them. The pain didn't allow me to grasp the technique. Lol so I you tubed it. Updated on 5 Mar 2014: So the highlights for day eight. When I open my car door or any doors like a buisness door my peck muscles tense up if it's to heavy so when pulling or pushing. Not a good feeling! The glue that's over my scares is starting to come off leaving a yucky black residue like when you remove band aids. Other then that messaging has made then nice and soft and I lo e them ") Updated on 5 Mar 2014: Day 8 post op Updated on 6 Mar 2014: Day 9 had some fun pick in up bras I can't wear lol but I have them for when I can lol! And at the price I couldn't beat it they were all cleansed out for 7.49 at target so I couldn't resist! Updated on 6 Mar 2014: DAY 9 shopping!! ") Updated on 10 Mar 2014: I have been having a blast sports bra shopping but the Danskin sports bra's seem to have the three things I'm looking for 1= be compterable, 2= supportive and 3= not be revieling under my shirts. They have removable pads.I love them! Updated on 10 Mar 2014: Both of the sports bra's above are Danskin just two different styles these were the styles I liked the most Updated on 18 Mar 2014: Yay! Day 21 starting to notice they are softer except when I get cold they harden up. Also less tightening when I open doors. Every day theirs a little change. Updated on 22 Mar 2014: So it's four days away from a month ewhew! lol had a follow up with surgeon and he said they are coming along nicely. He said I can wear wireless bra's, he said in another month I can wear a wired bra. Who would have thought that after doing BA I would be so excited to wear a bra again. Lol I guess old habits never die lol perhaps I'm more excited to finally fill a bra lol. As for changes I still get morning boob it's not painfully just a reminder that I need to get up and massage them. When I sneeze it's a little uncomfortable it seems the area between my breast tenses up. If I get really cold the peck muscles flex defiantly a we are feeling also not totally painful just uncomfortable. Other then these miner changes they feel great soft and they are dropping so their looking more natural. Not like balls on my chest their starting to look like real boobs Updated on 25 Mar 2014: We all know how the site can act up once in a while and delete or update well that has happened to me three times :( any who! The new girls are soft and fluffy with more fluffiness to come I'm sure Updated on 25 Mar 2014: I purchased these after my first fitting at vs they are 32dc f. I wanted to see if they still fit since I see so many people say they are fitted wrong. Well I guess it's just the luck of the draw and got lucky with someone that new what they were talking about. Yay me! Updated on 1 May 2014: So fare the things I can say about my boobs are, bra size will change over the corse of the healing proses so don't invest to much to soon in bra's if you get tempted save your receipts I left the bras on hangers and with a clothes pin clipped the receipt to the hanger. I had BA done Feb 24, so the girls are a little over two months. I still get little zingers here and their. I can finally wear a bra but I only do it furring work hours and rush home to my sprouts bra because they feel more comfortable. When I lean forward to take laundry out the dryer they do fell heavy. So I just support them with one arm. Scarring seems to be better and fading. Over all I'm happy with my decision and I love them their perfect size. Updated on 1 May 2014: Updated on 24 Nov 2014: I am officially 9 months today yay not much has changed they have sopped and fluffed and look very natural. I do wish I would have gone about 100cc's more wih they were just a bit bigger. But over all I am a 34DD or a 36D. As for the scares my scares are still light brown Still visible. Updated on 24 Nov 2014:
My Stats: 30 years old / 5'2'' / 125 lbs (petite/athletic frame). Had Mentor Round Smooth Saline Moderate Plus 340cc left / 325cc right placed sub-pectoral with infra-mammary fold incision. Always dreamed of a fuller chest and elated to have finally signed up for surgery a year ago. Recovery was a breeze - had surgery on a Friday and back to work on the following Wednesday. The most difficult part of the surgery was restricting exercise, as I am an extremely active person. Well worth it. Updated on 16 Feb 2014: Just upgraded to 425cc round smooth saline moderate plus implants (490 l / 465 r) two days ago. Original augmentation was done in January 2013. While I was pleased with the original augmentation, I desired a bit larger/fuller chest. I am satisfied with my decision and cannot wait to be fully healed once again. The recovery for the revision is even more of a breeze. I am just amazed!
n Feb. 2010 I decided to take control of my health. With various health problems and weighing 360 lbs at my highest recorded weight I started eating healthy and exercising. That was 140 lbs ago. I am 5’9” and weigh 220. My goal weight is actually 180, after weighing 360 I feel 180 will be a comfortable weight for me. I feel good physically and I am able to do so much more than I was before. The problem is the extra skin that I have in my abdomen and thigh area. The only thing that will correct these areas is surgery. When I look down and see the extra skin that is so abundant that it covers my peri area it makes me feel as if all my hard work has been in vain. So I decided to see a plastic surgeon and see what he suggested. I have decided to have a TT and thigh lift but due to the fact that my insurance will not cover either one I will have to do them separately. I have scheduled my TT for November 9th and I have to say that I am anxious and scared. I am not sure which I am more of, I guess it depends on the day. I am more concerned about being “knocked out” than what I am with the actual surgery. I have had surgeries in the past but that has been over 25 years ago. I am also the type of person that thinks of every worst case scenario, so that hasn’t helped the emotional roller coaster ride that I am on. I know that I will look and emotionally feel 100% better when this surgery is complete but in the meantime I will be driving myself crazy J I will post some before pics as soon as I get up the nerve to take some. Sheila in WI Updated on 27 Sep 2011: The past few days I have been really excited about the thought of having a flat tummy. I am still feeling a bit scared but not as much as I was. Just got the news yesterday that my husband has to go out of town on a business meeting starting November 14th and my surgery is scheduled for November 9th so that puts me and my 9 years home alone :) So now I am a little anxious wondering how I will be feeling at that time and hoping that I won't be needing much help....ugh Updated on 27 Sep 2011: I forgot to add that today I am seeing my heart doctor to get approved for sugery. I am presently on high blood pressure medication (which I think I could come off of but it is a low dose) and I have experienced parosyxmal(sp) atrial fibrillation but it has been awhile since i had an episode (knock on wood). So hopefully all systems are go...its in God's hands. Updated on 9 Oct 2011: One month from today I will be having my tummy tuck. For a few days I was feeling emotionally numb to the thought of surgery. Last night I woke up a couple of times thinking about it and told myself I wasn't going to have it done so I would go back to sleep. For the past couple of days (daytime) I have been feeling pretty excited about it. I have convinced myself it is in God's hands and what is meant to be will be. The problem comes when I am sleepy and have lost my power to think positive :) I have been enjoying the conversation with others on this site, seeing their results, and hearing their fears. It helps to feel that I am not alone on this crazy ride. One more month! Updated on 16 Oct 2011: Feeling anxious today to get rid of this stomach. Twenty three days to go! Sure, I still have moments when I feel scared but i remind myself that it is a normal feeling. I go on the 25th to make my payment for the hospital use and my PS so then it is a done deal! Also on that day I will be meeting with my PS so I can ask a few more questions and be sure about the scar placement and the shape of my scar. I have noticed that there is quite a difference in the shape of scars and I wonder if that is the surgeons preference or they just do it how they think it will look best. For me, I would assume it would take the same shape as my fold...don't know. I will be glad when the waiting is behind me :) Updated on 26 Oct 2011: Yesterday morning I went for another consult with my PS. I had a few more questions to ask and felt better going in to see him rather than asking on the phone. I then I had to make the payment at a late afternoon appointment so my husband could be there and on the way into the office I felt panicked. I go into the office and the lady from billing gave me the papers to sign and I told her I needed a minute and went and told my husband that i didnt think I could do it and I was ready to back out. To my surprise he told me that I have come this far with weight loss that I needed to do it for me. So I walked right back up and made payment. My husband don't say much about the surgery he just sets and listens when I talk and he has told me that I am fine the way I am (big tummy and all) so I was really surprised when he was supportive in the office. I may have backed out if it wasn't for him. I know this is something I really want and I will begin to be happy with my physical appearance once I have corrections made to all the extra skin. So now it is a done deal! After the appointment we drove to the hospital and checked out the same day surgery unit and talked to one of the nurses. We have never been to this hospital so I wanted to get the feel of it before the big day. So we made sure of everything like where we needed to park and where to go. So I am feeling a bit better about the whole thing. Noe if I could just stop waking up at night to pee :) When I get up at night I start thinking about the surgery then I can't get back to sleep. Ughh So I have been up since around 3 am and I have to work so it will be a long day for me. Updated on 31 Oct 2011: Today I paid the anesthesiologist fee and went and bought my wax kit and antimicrobial soap. Last night my daughter asked me when my surgery is and usually I answer "Novemeber 9th" which gives it a distant sound but I realized its a week from Wednesday! Right around the corner. Anxious? yep Nervous? yep....but I am more anxious than anything right now but that is subject to change at any given moment. I wish I would go in and have it done when I am having a positive "nothing can stop me" attitude :) I really can't wait to get it over and be free of this growth on my body...I don't even feel like it is a part of me..it needs to go! With that being said, I am now wondering about this waxing thing. I never waxed before but I do know it probably wont be pleasant. Updated on 3 Nov 2011: Wellllll.....6 days and counting. Today i a m feeling excited :) and wish it was here already. I can't wait to look down and see whatever is under my apron! Sure I still feel a little scared and nervous but I am working on those positive thoughts. I have my outfit picked out to wear to the hospital...a zip up hoodie and lose pants with some slip on shoes. Might need to buy some bigger panties, How many sizes bigger than my normal size should I get? I have plenty of reading material ready and a lap top. I also have my gel pack in the freezer getting chilled...I think maybe I should have bought two of them. 6 more days of lifting my tummy up! Updated on 6 Nov 2011: Well, down to 3 days to go and counting...yikes! Still excited to see this tummy go but still unable to imagine myself without it. It's been there for so long. Last night I went out and bought gauze and tape so I believe ?I have everything that I will need except for something to apply to the incision for aftercare but i will see what my PS recommends. I also bought a couple of large gel packs that can be froze or heated in microwave. I think I am ready to roll! Updated on 6 Nov 2011: Forgot to mention that when I went and paid for my TT the nurse gave me a information on CosmetAssure. It is an insurance that covers any type of complications for 30 days post op. She said all their patients get it and it can only be offered by board certified surgeons. Has any one else been offered this? Updated on 8 Nov 2011: Less that 24 hours to go...YIKES! lol I am feeling excited and scared of course. Just got a call from the nurse in same day surgery going over the last minute things she said I wouldn't get a call from the anesthesiologist but would talk to him about 45 minutes before surgery. However, I asked a few questions and found out that he does stay in the room the whole time and that the ones they have have been doing it a long time. So thats reassuring. The nurse did ask me my weight but I am wondering how much I have gained over the last three days from eating too much because of nerves. I didn't eat off my diet plan as far as the types of food goes but the quantity was a bit overboard. Today is going to seem like a long day at work. Updated on 8 Nov 2011: Oh! I forgot! The nurse also said I can back out anytime until the surgery. I told her that after all the mental anguish I have put myself through the last couple of months I Wont be backing out. Updated on 8 Nov 2011: Welll Cancelled surgery...not because fear got the best of me.....but as I said through this who process "what is meant to be, will be" and I am meant to be a mom another time. Something told me to go get a test before getting up and driving tomorrow so early in the morning. I tested twice and then called my PS's answering service and they had him contact me so that I could let him know. He will refund my whole amount. Still I am a little in shock considering I am 42 years old and I just lost a bunch of weight. But whats meant to be will be. I wish all of you successful surgeries, fast healing, and self satisfaction. A tummy tuck is not what God has planned for me right now.
