WORTH IT
It's been a while...as life goes back to normal and holidays rolled in, I had forgotten to post updates. The girls have dropped & fluffed at this point, I think! Pretty much fairly even and I forget they are there sometimes. They are softer and more natural looking. As far as size, I don't think I've gotten any bigger or smaller. With clothes on, sometimes I look like I have C cups, other times D. I'm officially a 32DD, though no one told me this is a fairly rare bra size. I could manage a 34D but the band tends to be a bit loose making it quite uncomfortable (feeling like I would fall out of my bra the whole time wearing them).
All in all, I'm happy with the results thus far! Dr. Brown's work is ART!! These are my boobs, just bigger. I had asked for voluptuous but natural looking for my frame and got exactly what I wanted. THANK YOU!!!

Morning boobs, boob blues & size matters...
I'm sorry it's been a while since I've post an update! Today I hit my 4 weeks post op mark. The girls have dropped a bit more and my left is still doing so faster than my right. I do still wake up every morning with "morning boobs" or that tightness feeling. I've had the "boobs blues" and have been depressed for about 2 weeks now as well. They seem smaller and smaller as they drop and the swelling goes away. I've been assured over and over again that the implant size and cc does not change. A friend even comforted me by telling me to think of it as a bean bag sort of. My muscles are tense, which compresses the implants, hence they rise so high up top. Once my muscle relaxes, the implants will drop into position, making my bottom fuller instead of my top. I'm not loosing or gaining anything in reality so don't sweat about it too much. Yes, I do know it's all in my head, however, I can tell you the blues are very real!!
Today I was given the clearance to also resume all my normal activities. I went bra shopping for the first time so I can be back to the gym at full force. First stop was Macy's: I'm told I'm a 32DD or 34D after being measured. I wasn't able to find much of anything in these sizes so bought a few sports bra in M (which seemed to fit ok for now). Second stop was Saks, whom told me I'm a 32F. The band seems to fit well and so does the cup of this size...I really like!! Found a nice large selection but did not purchase any since I'm told to stay away from underwires for a few more months. Lastly Victoria's Secret: 34D seems kind of loose yet 32DD is too tight. I did purchase a few of the Bralettes in size M for now since they resemble wearing bikini tops.
Bra shopping and seeing actual numbers/letters have lifted my spirit! I did book some tee times for this weekend and is very excited to be able to play again. Hopefully my golf game isn't affected too much, yikes! Okay I'm off to the gym now, will update to everyone later!

I can't believe it's been a week! I am done with antibiotics and things are great!! My left breast dropped faster and is softer now. I'm focusing on my daily massages and more so for my right breast to hopefully catch up to the other side. I can't really tell how my large my incisions are or how they are healing since the steri strips have yet to fall off. Hopefully soon since I am stressing about this quite a bit. Being Asian, I tend to bruise very easily and will more likely have a noticable scar. I haven't been bra shopping yet since it's pointless at this point to stress about size...and I'm sure it will change over the next few months. I did try on a few old bikinis and is loving life again!!!

I am concerned about scarring because I am asian as well. Could you tell me how your scars are now? Did you develop keloid?

Hi! The scar looks pretty much the same to me at 3 months compared to my 1 month photos. Still slightly pink in color but no keloid. I'm still religiously putting Mederma on twice a day.
