Wow, I am so sorry I haven't been keeping up! Boobs are doing well! All the bandages are off. The wounds around my left areola aren't fully closed, but my doctor's office said it's fine. I have been doing normal activity since only a few days after surgery...so crazy! I still can't do high impact cardio or exercises that work the pec area, but everything else he gave a green light to. How crazy! I guess that's why he calls it fast track recovery. So, here are some pic updates, but I'll try to take pics this week for the most recent update!

Here are some photo updates from the past couple days. I'm not sure why I didn't take pictures on Day 3, but it's all good! Btw, I consider the day of surgery Day 1.

I haven't taken any pain meds for the past couple days because they were making me constipated. Thankfully my pain isn't too bad! It's mainly the pressure still.

I'm not sure if I can really tell a difference between the days, but I want to post the pictures anyway.

I'm wearing a normal bra today (no underwire) and it's definitely not as comfortable as the sports bra I was wearing. I'm wondering if it's too small? I'll wear it a little longer and see how I feel.

They're great! We would love a update when you get a chance. I just had the same procedure 8 days ago and I have been following your story since before my surgery. Hope all is well!

Since I showered last night, I figured it was a good time for pics. So, here are some more day-of surgery pics...

My implants are sitting really high right now and my nipples/areolas don’t quite match up, but I’m hoping this will all improve with time!

Hi! Congrats on your new boobs. Yes,,,the first few days are the hardest. The surgery takes quite a bit of time to heal from. Your boobs will change a lot during the healing process. Looking forward to following you. Happy Healing.

My breasts were asymmetrical so he did two different sizes. 445 cc in the left/smaller breast and 405 cc in the right/larger breast.
