Just an update on where I’m at. My breasts look great and are very symmetrical. I continue to be so impressed with how they look. I am usually wearing a comfortably fitting sports bra or regular bra but sometimes I go bra less. My surgeon said it makes no difference because the implants are surgically placed in the breast pocket and won’t drop but I am still nervous! It seems like such a big investment that I want to support them and make sure they stay looking great for the next 20 years! Anyone else have these fears?

Hi!!! Your results are really beautiful!!! Congrats. Yes, I wear a bra all the time. All surgeons have their own rules/ideas/theories. My PS told me to try to stay in a bra as much as I can. I have 520CC implants too. I go braless sometimes,,,depending on what I'm wearing. But, yes,,,I want to protect my investment too. :) Take care!

7 months after

I am at 7 months post surgery. My scars are still a bit red, especially underneath.
The girls are nice and soft and a bit bouncy now.
I am so incredibly happy about my result.
I have no pain but my incisions are itchy every once in a while.

Glad you’re happy with your results! Looking wonderful! I hope you continue to heal well. :-)
they look amazing!
Just dropping by to see how things were going on the farm? I was just going through my old posts and saw we were a day apart from sx, both had farms/goats and had the same sx. Just wanted to see how you were doing? Hope all is well?! ❤️
Doing great! I love my boobs! I wasn’t super diligent about scar treatment so mine are still pretty noticeable but I could care less. I do get some itching every now and then but other than that I rarely remember that I have implants... except when I look in the mirror
I use bio-oil when I remember. I can’t get into those silicone strips b/c I can’t stand things sticking to me. I’m with you on letting the scars heal on their own. I wouldn’t consider my scar treatment/revision. Glad all is well. ❤️

I went to see my surgeon last week and he said everything is healing nicely. I have fair skin
so my scars are very red right now but that will start to fade over the next 6-12 months.
I honestly haven’t been keeping up on scar therapy very much so I’m not sure if it’s a coincidence that they turned more red or if they would have done that anyway.
My scars are itching quite a bit more lately.

Still looking great! Glad you are healing nicely. At 3 months postop your scars are in the angry phase; and according to the literature (on scar healing) it’s pretty normal for them to turn red or darken at this time. You mentioned below you were using scar sheets. I do think they are helpful for quickening the healing process. I also realize it’s difficult to keep up with this kind of stuff; that’s why I use Embrace scar sheets. They last up to 10 days at a time. In fact I started up and a separate review on embrace scar therapy. If you’re interested in reading about my experience click on my profile icon/name and scroll down the list to find my “embrace scar therapy” journal. I hope you continue to heal well. :-)
Same here. I'm fair skinned, my scars went from very light to darker red and I also don't use anything. My ps said it'll fade (he ran his finger over scar and they lightened up, he says that's an Indication of what they will look like in future) in time. I'm also more itchy lol
Happy healing doll
Hi Hun! Looking great!!! At 3 months,,,the scars look angry,,and pissed off. LOL! Mine did! I cant stress enough how vigilance, and consistency will help you with your scars fading. Your scars would have turned red regardless of your scar therapy. Thats my opinion. You are at that phase where they look really rough. No worries...that will change. Try to be consistent with your scar therapy treatment of choice. Im at 9 months...and I have darker skin. My scars are coming along pretty nicely. I use silicone sheets. With scars,,,it just takes time. My scars itched really badly too. They still do sometimes. Anyways,,,take care. Your breasts look amazing!!!! Enjoy!! and Happy Healing!!!
Congratulations on your wonderful results! I'll bet you are thrilled. My skin is very fair, too, and I went through the same thing as you. My scars are all but gone now with just a faint pinkness. You had a wonderful surgeon to get such a good outcome.
PS I did use Biocorneum for about 3 months faithfully, now I use it most of the time. I don't know if that made a difference, maybe it sped up the healing.
