Having a baby really took a toll on my body. I was very curvy before my pregnancy. I was around a 160 lbs, but I has very toned. I had a size C-D breast. I gained a lot of weight during my pregnancy. After I had my baby, I lost all of my a baby weight and then some. I got down to 119 lbs, which left me with a lot of loose skin. Although I felt I looked great in clothes, I was really uncomfortable being naked.
I originally wanted to get a revision tummy tuck and a breast lift with augmentation. I have been looking for over a year for a doctor to preform my breast lift and argumentation and tummy tuck. I have been terrified of scars. I already have a tummy tuck scar, and I also have a lot of stretch marks from my pregnancy. I just didn't want my body to be cover with scars, even if that meant I would have loose skin.
So I started my search for a PS. I can't even tell you how many interviews I went to. I even flew out of state to interview doctors. There was always something. The doctor made me feel uncomfortable, the doctor had bad reviews, the scars were bad, the implants and tummy tucks didn't look natural. It just seemed like I was just going to have to live with my sagging skin. But then I met doctor Alderman. Within the first five minuets I knew she was going to be my doctor. She was warm and kind and she really made me feel like she truly cared about the concerns I had about my body. I explained my concern about my stomach, but she told me my stomach was beautiful and advised against what other doctors suggested, which was a lower body lift. She could have just agreed with what I was concerned about had had given me a procedure that I really didn't need--but she didn't. So we talked more about my breast. I just wanted a soft natural look. I don't care about being "sexy". I just want to feel like a woman. I wanted my soft, full look back before I had my baby. I feel like because she is a woman, she really can understand what what I wanted for my self and why. I have never met a doctor as compassionate as Dr. Alderman. I scheduled my surgery that very same day and booked it for the 8th of May.

Congrats! How are you feeling? What type of implants did you get? Profile, size etc.

Thank you! I'm feeling really well. The pain is not at all what I thought it would be. It just feels like I worked my chest out really hard. I'm not sure about the profile, but the size 400 cc's. My doctor tried in a couple of different sizes and picked which one she thought look best. I have my post-op appointment tomorrow. I'll let you know the profile after my appointment.

I had my post op appointment yesterday, and had all of tape taken off except the tape covering the incisions. I got to see them for the first time yesterday. It wasn't quite what I was expecting. I've been looking at other photos of lift and augmentations and they're all pretty much round. Mine are cone shaped and pointy. My nipples aren't even either. I'm not quite sure what to think. I trust my doctor, and trying t be optimistic, but the shape was just surprising to me. I have another appointment on the 23rd. I talk to my doctor more about it then.
