It is really good to take progress pic so u can really see the difference. The most that made me anxious is the side profile. I can't stand looking at my side profile for the first 3 wks post op. I cannot tell how much relief it is for me to seeing this comparison pics. Im telling you this journey is no joke, I went from "TAKE THESE THINGS OFF OF ME, THEIR UGLY" to "I LOVE IT, ITS WORTH IT. I CANNOT LIVE WITH OUT MY 350S" lol. I dont think they're done dropping yet, definitely has not fluff yet but Im just super excited how much prettier they could get once it's done!

For those who are struggling right now, just hang in there. It's only gonna get better!

I have enjoyed reading your journey with your BA. Your results have turned out beautiful !! I am just now saving to be able to get the boobs i've always dreamed of ! I went for a consultation several years ago, but the timing wasn't right to actually go through with it. Thanks for sharing your story for people like me to become better informed & more hopeful <3

My problem child is starting to get it and is following what her sister's doing, lol! I think the more i go to the gym and do my stretching, the faster it dropped and got softer. Im just so happy my boobs are not square and snoopy looking forever!

Today marked my 5 weeks post op. The girls has dropped a lot this past few days. Especially my righty, which is my problem child, it's trying to catch up with the lefty which is perfect. I've been having fun dressing them up. I still have more dropping and fluffing to do, im just so excited what my final results will be!

I feel great! I finally get to enjoy them. Thanks! How's it going for you?
April 2, 2017
I'm feeling good and like they are a part of me now :) I get to wear an underwire bra now because Dr doesn't want them dropping anymore in the next 6 weeks so I will be excited to go shopping for new bras! Still slightly asymmetrical but that's how I was before so I guess that's what to be expected
April 2, 2017
I am glad you have the improvement. Do you feel the implants firm? Mine are both firm and high.

They are a lot softer now but still have moments when it firmed up especially at night and i still have morning boobs but not as bad as before.

Today is exactly my 1 month boobiesary. I can't say Im totally happy yet with how the girls look like right now but definitely there's a lot of progress. Right boobs is still way higher than the left and snoopy breast is still keeping me company no matter how i wanted it to go away! Lol.
On clothes and sports they look great. I got lot of compliments especially in the gym. Im totally satisfied with the size. (Mentor 350cc round smooth HP). But i hope they will settle in their final destination so I can move on with my life and enjoy them completely!

What does your doctor have to say about rightie being so high? Hopefully it starts dropping soon! Are your boobs still numb? When I asked my doctor when that would go away he said not for about six months or longer! I do not recall ever hearing it takes that long. I was very disappointed to hear that because that is probably what bothers me most at this point! Patience is no fun :(

He said it will drop eventually. They really look weird in pictures. They look much better in person. I should stop taking pictures, it's so frustrating.

And oh i have no more numbness
User Avatar
March 25, 2017
I'm sorry, that really stinks! Hopefully it will start dropping sooner than later. I wonder why my numbness would take so long to go away. Does my surgeon use a different method that would cause it to take so long??? I just don't get it.

I have the same situation like you, they just firm and sitting high, it bothers me so much. Hope we could get better soon.

Hey jojoZang, i just checked out your review and i agree, we have same situation. I think it happens to women with some ptosis of the breast. I can't stand the empty space at the bottom of the breast that makes it look like snoopy breast. My right side is my problem child. The left one has really dropped all it has to do is fluff. My ps said my right one will catch with the left. It's my dominant side that's why it taken longer to D&F. My PS said just be patient. I guess we'll just have to be patient we have no choice.

Hi I've been on this site since January. I haven't done an official review for personal reasons. But the same situation , I am 5'4" and weigh 112. I am 11 weeks po but still have trouble with my right , love my left! It's really keeping me from being happy with the surgery. My ps said it should be fine by 6 months. I'm curious if anyone else had to wait that long to heal?? I hope yours catches up soon. I also worked out a lot and am a competitive swimmer. Best of luck. In pictures yours looks beautiful. :)

My PS did not give me a time line as to when my right breast should catch up with my left breast but these past few days I've noticed my breasts has gotten a lot softer and i can see my right breast dropping more each day. It's still higher than the left but squarish upper pole is gone now. I started taking 1000 iu of Vit E 2x daily. I dunno if it's coincidental but I felt a difference in the softness once i started taking it. Btw, what size and profile did i get?

I dunno, some doctors believe and some dont in Vit E preventing capsular contractures. And there's very studies proving it. But after taking it for 2 days i felt a big difference in the softness. Also Im Asian and we're more prone to developing CC.
