Travelling to Clinic Beaucare in Belgium!

Update (9 ish months) & aftercare
$3,900
I should have updated earlier after my panicked few moments that something had gone horribly wrong!
I booked in to see Dr Vrambout again in London after posting the pictures above because I was convinced they were bottoming out and had slipped out of the pocket (a bit of research on here and looking at photos of other people with the same complaints led me to believe that was the case) but I was quite disappointed when I came out and he just told me it was natural and to be expected because of the way my natural boobs were shaped ie. quite far apart. I also told him I'd been having some pain and he didn't really seem to address that either. Basically he told me there was nothing that could be done to make them look how I wanted because of my body (which I guess is probably true but not nice to hear) and that if I wanted Dr Ulens opinion I'd need to go back to Brussels although she would probably say exactly the same. Again, true, but a bit hard to swallow after all the pain and money!!
BUT it wasn't long after the appointment that my boobs seemed to start looking a bit more natural and how I want them. Don't get me wrong they're still quite far apart but they certainly look better than they did in my last post?! They are also much more squishy and move more like a normal boob would. I have attached a few photos. I guess I don't really know how I feel about their aftercare still. Like I'm pleased that my boobs look nicer now than my last post and I don't have pain anymore but what if they hadn't got better, or there was actually a problem that needed revision, or the pain didn't go away? I know this is probably not helpful for people considering Beaucare, I just don't want to trash them because I suppose for me everything has worked out ok in the end. But I'd certainly be cautious picking them if aftercare is one of your top priorities which I guess for most people it should be!!
I'm pleased with them for now anyway. And the scars are getting sooooo faint (woohoo!)
The only other thing I would comment on is that I still can't manage a press up! Even a girls one! Its not that it hurts, it doesn't hurt at all. It just feels 'weird' when I use my chest muscles and I worry I might be damaging them or something idk lol! Other than that all is well. It doesn't hurt to squeeze them at all or anything like that, I feel they're pretty much 100% recovered now :-)

Hey! Sorry I haven't wrote an update. Will do one this evening with photos. Basically the surgeon said it's normal and gave an explanation which seemed like some kind of cop out but now they look fine for the most part so I'm not panicked anymore! But still wouldn't really rate the aftercare. I'll write more later on when I'm back from work:) [RS bleep]

6 months.. worried
So I'm just over 6 months post op and was hoping to do a great post about it but in all honesty I don't know what's happened. I've been so happy with the results so far but in the past couple of months they've started to look awful and I'm really not happy :( really panicked because if this is how they're going to look then God help me!! I've emailed the clinic with regards to them looking extremely dispositioned and also bottoming out (look how far the scar is away from the crease now!)
I feel like this will be a test of Beaucare's quality of aftercare..which I won't lie, has been quite shocking so far. I went for my free checkup in London about 3/4 months post op (wasn't even told this was available, only found out through someone commenting on my review!) And I was top less for all of about 60 seconds whilst the doctor visiting the UK had a bit of a feel, asked me to tense my muscles, gave me a nod and asked me to get dressed again.
Watch this space girls! :(
