Two year update. Not sure what to say! I feel happy with them, though I wonder if in the future I will want to add fat transfer. I plan on having a baby at some point, so I expect I'll need to revise at some point.

Just putting up some update pictures! Everything still feels good! I sometimes worry that my left boob points too far toward my armpit, which I’ve mentioned elsewhere in this review. I think my concern about this stems from my previous implants moving over time- I’m paranoid! So it sort of helps to take pictures. As you can see they look different at different angles (duh).

Hi! Can you tell me what size you were prior to your first BA? My sx is 6/22 and this will be an exchange as well..I cannot decide on a size! Yours look great! It seems like once I have an idea I see a post that makes me think I need to go bigger/smaller. So confused! TIA!

Definitely read though my whole review as I go into detail about sizing. But I went from 325 cc to 535. But a lot of the bigger implant is filling in what used to be gap in my mid chest. I wear the same bra size with 535ccs as I did with 325 ccs if you can believe it!

Oh wow! Ya that’s crazy. I did see the implant size you posted. Thanks!

i don't think you have anything to worry about on your left boob. if anything, both boobs are a bit too close together. if that's the way you wanted it's an excellent result.

Thanks! They are indeed what I wanted. Just so you know, I find your tone a touch backhanded. Just letting you know in case improving on how you convey information and ideas to people, online or in person, is something you are working on.

Sorry I didn't mean to come off that way, thanks for the feedback. I actually have the same starting point as you do and Im also looking for revision so your review is really helpful and thanks for being so detailed and helpful.

Just a few more pictures. I like to throw them up here when I take them as it helps me track my progress/any changes. i find I'm super anxious about my breasts changing, as they did with my first augmentation. I honestly can't remember if they were wrong to begin with (probably, I was just young and didn't really know what to expect) but they did get worse over time. The other day I found this other "before" picture that I'll add here and honestly, I was SHOCKED by how different they are now, and how bad they had become in terms of size differentials. I mean....I am just so glad I decided to go through with this revision.

Hi your revision results are amazing. Was the difference in the size of the implant the only factor that changed your cleavage? I love the before and after!

Thank you so much! In addition to the bigger size, he placed internal stitches to correct the pockets!

Are those the Sientra smooth implants instead of textured, if they are the smooth are they the Sientra 106 or 107? I was also wondering how tall you are because I am still trying to decide how big I want to go. I am 5’2 and I know certain size implants can look different on everybody’s body. If you could let me know I would appreciate it. They look great by the way!

Thank you! They are Sientra smooth (535 ccs high profile). I chose smooth because of the slim chance of rare cancer with the textured (even though the Allergan textureds seemed to be the most problematic). Dr.Kim also let me know that the textured feel firmer and have a slight tendency toward rippling. Mine feel super soft! I’m not sure if they are the 106 or 107s, though. I am five foot eight inches. Hope this helps :)
