Well, I can’t believe how much time has passed. I feel great, love the size and look of my breasts. I still can’t believe how good I feel. I can actually go bra less if I want!

would love to see how they look 3 years post. Did they start to sag or any other issues?

They aren't so square looking as they were when I first had the surgery. I wouldn't call them perky or anything, but the nipples are up high (where they should be) and my breasts are more tear-shaped now. All in all, I am happy!

Glad to hear this. I'm thinking about making an appointment with Dr. Sherick. I am 55 years old and I know our skin is not as elastic as younger womens and its harder to get a good out come. Yours is very good I believe.

You should definitely talk with Dr. Sherick, you won’t regret it. I can’t tell you how much better I feel. I was 57 when I had the surgery.

Did they even out? I’m considering a breast reduction but my scared they’ll look botched. I’m 25 but my boobs have always been big. When I was 12 I was a B cup. Then 16 I was a triple D38. Once I got pregnant and had my daughter they got even bigger. I only wear sports bras. Two sports bras with a supportive tight tank top smh!!

It has been six months. I feel really good, there are times I still can't believe that I had this surgery!

Every now and again, I still feel little pains here and there and I still have to be careful of how I lay in bed - not to stretch the scars. My scars are healing well and my breasts are more natural looking, not so swollen. I have settled into a size C cup - perfect! So nice to shop in normal women's sizes, really enjoying that!

Discovered an odd thing...

I just now found that I have no feeling on my skin below my nipple and to the left on left breast and right on right breast. My nipples have great sensation, but odd I never noticed that lack of feeling on the skin under my nipples. Does anyone else have that? It's not a big deal, just weird.

It will probably come back in time. I have certain areas that are still numb. 5 months PO here.

You look great :) I am 10days PO and have a lot of numbness. Dr said it can take up to a year for some areas to come back, but not to worry about it. Looking forward to being where you are at!

I am 3 months post and I'm the same. Numbness on the lower outer portion of each breast. It's come back a bit but still very little feeling.
That same area hurts when I get up outbid bed in the morning too. It goes away quickly but I have to support my breasts at first and then they're fine. Wonder if that's normal?
