So I hit my two-year mark last June. Everything is going well since. I wish I had photos from the one year mark in between to add but I don't have them on hand right now. I will see what I can find later.
Everything settled fine and evened out as time went on. I have since gained some weight so I now wear a 32 F or FF depending. They feel great and I am still so happy with my choice!

My left is still a little higher but they are soft and feel normal. I sleep on my side now which is nice! I used to be a stomach sleeper.
My scars are smooth and slowly fading but not easily seen anyways. I'm excited by the progress and can't wait for the left one to catch up, luckily it's not really visible in bras.
Current size is a 30F or 32 DDD/E

You look amazing ! I have a consultation coming up with Dr. Richard and few other doctors coming up as well. I am mixed between excitement and nervous.. I am about 5”4 , 130lbs , Asian , one kid and am deciding on the size as well. Any recommendations? How do you feel yours now ? Take care..
They look amazing! They fit your body perfectly. Hoping you update again. Wanting to see your progress.

Just Amazing.

I had a FANTASTIC experience with Dr. Richards.I contacted his practice back in Dec17/Jan 18 after I had narrowed down my preferred Doctor choices.I was put in contact with Mariah Sandin, she remained my patient coordinator throughout my whole experience ( I would like to add she was absolutely amazing. very responsive to emails with all my questions. And she really made me feel comfortable and was excited with me. I just adored her!)Because I am from Canada I did my first consult via skype. that went great. Dr. Richards was clear on concise, we discussed my goals and what I was a good candidate for, he gave me his time and answered all my questions.After that I decided I felt best with Dr. Richards and decided to book my surgery.I flew from Alberta to DC June 11, had an in person consult June 12th were I tried sizers and discussed with Mariah and the Dr. what would give me the look I was hoping for. This was also a surgery day for the Dr. but they made time to fit me in and never rushed me despite my indecisiveness. I was very appreciative of this.June 15th surgery day: I had narrowed it down to 425 and 450 on the 12, I made the final call to go with 450 on the day of. I met with the Dr. before surgery and he made me feel very comfortable. did all the markings and then I met with they other Operating room staff (Ben I believe and I did not get my anesthesiologist name but she was a very sweet, kind lady.The surgery its self went great. I took the prescribed pain killers for 2 days after at the minimum dose. Then Tylenol every 4-6 hours for the next 5 days. I had a follow up with Dr. Richards before I flew home 4 days after surgery. All was looking well, he showed me how to do the massage techniques which I started at 1 week P.O.So far everything is healing up great. My incisions look fantastic and I feel great.I still get a bit stiff in the morning or after wearing a bra all day. If they keep dropping and healing this good I expect the final result to be exactly what I had hoped for.
Thank you Dr Richards and your amazing staff! I would definitely come to you for any other surgical needs.

I also have my surgery scheduled with Dr. Richards, and my PC is Mariah! They are both so amazing, and I feel so comfortable with them both. You're recovery seems to have been fairly easy, which gives me hope! Come back and update us soon. :)
Great ! Congratulations ! I am researching for Surgeon in DC area as well, and I am considering Dr. Richard on my list. How are you feeling now ? Do you feel like carrying something in your body and it looks natural? (That is my fear now )
Hi! I have been feeling great! They are not heavy, they look very natural!
My left side is still slightly higher but much less noticable now :) I will post my 2 month updated pics!
I highly reccomend Dr Richard and his staff. They were all so lovely!
Hi LLama138, thank you for your recommendation. I have booked a first consultation with him. I am now starting to be excited and ...nervous as well. I will follow your journey review for my upcoming one.. By the way, what cream did you use for post op to heal?
I just moisturize to help prevent stretch marks but I have always gotten some in the breast area. they also gave me some silicone scar get at the clinic for free which was nice.
Nice . How are you feeling? Is 450cc feel heavy ? I have a similar profile to yours , and had consultation with Dr. Richards. He recommends between 450cc or 475cc High Profile . I like the size , but just worry if it will be too big and heavy on me
