Swelling is completely gone and the fullness at top of my breasts has disappeared. My breasts are taking a more natural shape now with the tightness of tissue relaxing as my breast heal.

great result, what changes did you notice between 3 and 6 months???? I am coming up to 10 weeks

Mostly what happened between 3 & 6 months is the swelling slowly went away. Only just recently past two to four weeks have I noticed my breasts to start setting into a more natural position. For a while after my surgery the swelling & tightness of surgical reconstruction gave me a fuller & larger implant look.....my breasts appeared to sit a little perkier at first. But now they look more natural & are less full on the top part of breasts. Check out all my pics & you'll see how overtime they start looking slightly different with each month.

Not really. Prior to surgery I was a 38DD in Lane Bryant bras. After surgery I've been wearing 38C in Lane Bryant or 36D in Victoria's Secret bras. I was just fuller weeks ago (had more muffin top)

You look AMAZING! How many grams did you have removed from each breast?

Thank You soooo much! If I remember correctly, it was close to 400 grams per breast.

Almost 4 months After surgery

Feeling much better now....I still have some residual swelling to breasts. All those wacky sensations just hit out of nowhere. However this is to be expected when nerve endings are healing/regrowing. My right nipple and other areas of my breasts still have numbness....this too is expected. I anticipate over the next 6-8 months the numbness will continue to resolve. I'm still so happy that I had the reduction. My husband is still having to get use to the new smaller me.

Taking a more natural shape

User Avatar

I'm 6 weeks & a day post op! Most of the swelling has gone down. My breasts are taking a more natural shape & feel now. I've lost some of the fullness to the top of breasts that I've had due to swelling. All open skin areas to nipples have finally closed. It is true if you gain weight after surgery your boobs will get bigger too. I've gained 10lbs or so since surgery & I can tell my boobs are a bit larger last couple weeks despite me losing the swelling. ( mainly I can tell by how my surgical bras are more snug now & my breasts feel heavier). My husband swears they don't look any larger. LOL! He's still a little lost without "them".
