One year pics - thoughts? Would the side stuff be easily corrected?


One year later. :)

The breast reduction is still the best thing I have ever done. The girls are completely dropped and I have had absolutely no issues. I wasn't as proactive on the scar cream and strips as I should have been, but I really could not care less. Size wise, I would say I am a full C. I had hoped to devote time to exercise and what not after surgery so that I could lose weight, but I failed horribly at that. (I do plan to address those issues though) The only thing I would change is my side fat - that may go down with weight loss, but if not I will have a bit of lipo to address it. I promise to whip out the camera and post the one year pics so you can truly see the scar and drop progression.

6 weeks out! Perfection

I LOVE the girls. My back and neck love me. We are all a happy family. Yeah i know, super cheesy, but it is true.

I feel so much better now. (and I look better) I went home to see my family for two weeks and my two sisters were overcome with jealousy. (Of course I practically flashed them when I got off the plane) But there really are so few people you can show your boobs to! (well, without attracting undue attention).

The pics I am posting today feature silicone scar sheets and liquid silicone. So you won't get a look at my scars today. (I had just applied the stuff and did not want to take if off) But you can see the great shape they have. They have softened up a lot and dropped just a bit. So i no longer have immobile boobage.

I still have little bit of swelling and this tends to happen in the late afternoon - but no real issues. My pictures are not great, but I assure you my boobs are perfectly even and I could not be happier. (I can wear a sundress without a bra!) As to size, I really could not say. And I don't care. I have just been wearing these really soft no seam bras from Fruit of the Loom I got at Walmart for $11.00. They conform to your shape. (And $11.00!! I could buy an armful compared to what I used to pay for a bra) I will say, in a couple of months I do plan to be properly fitted, but if I ever see under-wire again it will be too soon.

I had a follow-up with my doc a couple of days ago since I'm leaving the country and we all feel they look great. I was also really reassured that should I need anything they are just an email or phone call away. I highly recommend Dr. Lickstein and Belecara.

Dr. Lickstein and Belecara are wonderful. Dr. Lickstein was very patient and understanding through the entire process (which I really appreciated with the little snags I had) I found the surgery center and staff to be top notch. I was never made to feel uncomfortable and always welcomed warmly when I arrived. (Although I did jokingly suggest they hire some unattractive women. They were all gorgeous and I would never want to stand next to them) In short, I would recommend Dr. Lickstein without reservation.
