WORTH IT
I am now a 34F/FF. I measured with the abrathatfits calculator and it did a fantastic job. I've included more photos then words as I am ecstatic with my results. They're truly beautiful despite their rough start haha.
I haven't had any trouble with them. They're fitting well in bras. My ribcage is still a bit too small for their size and it makes it hard to find bralettes but it's alright

Scars 1+ year post op
Scar healing is wonderful. Right side is not as great but considering the infection in the incision, it looks pretty good.

What did you use on your scars?:)
So is the divet down the middle of the one breasts sunken in or is it just the lighting/flash from camera? I had healing issues too and my scars aren't bad either considering. Thanks for sharing!
It's not sunken. It's my scarring from the T intersection. My right one that had the infection is a bit sunken still and is still softening which is understandable but for all the crap it's went through w infection, my right side is healing fantastic too.
That's good to hear. I had open wounds under my breasts at the T junction too but no infection so I totally understand what your saying. I think they look great considering what you went through too. You can look at my review and see what I went through. I dealt with LOTS of spitting sutures. Also that scar will continue to heal and look better as time goes on. I choose not to do a scar revision even though it was included in my price. I can do it anytime up to 5 ypo. Thanks for your quick reply. Happy continued healing dear.
He asked if I wanted my areola's gone back over - one was naturally larger than the other and he had fixed it originally but with the complications, one has went smaller again and I declined. They look great just like they are considering. I plan on having them "refreshed" in 10 years anyhow so maybe then. Thanks! I'll take a look!
Look at it this way, our breasts are sisters not twins. I think they look nice and full. I'd be proud of them!! Take care. :-)
ORIGINAL POST
Revision: Reinserting new implant
Dr Magge brought me back in to the office to see how I had been healing in October. He wanted to wait the full 6 months before putting the implant back in to be sure the scar tissue was completely softened.
We made the revision for the beginning of December and it ended up getting pushed by a week a week before it was scheduled which was luck on my case since my daughter also had a surgery.
I went in, was met by the head of the OR who took my stats and inserted my IV. The anesthesiologist came in and I told them this time that my body responds a little too well and they kept a better eye on it and didn't give me too much to where I was knocked out the entire day. It was perfect.
This time I was fully coherent on the way home. I stayed on the couch the first two weeks in an inclined position with pillows everywhere. I didn't really do anything this time for a solid 2 months in regards to lifting anything over 15 lbs or putting any strain on my chest.
The drop and fluff process was super aggravating this time around. I had a completely dropped and fluffed left and my right was so high and tight and it was just looked ridiculous but that was to be expected. I was super impatient this time around for the process to be over even though I had all the patience in the world waiting to have the one back in.
Dr Magge kept a close eye on me this time with weekly appointments until I was 1 month post op, then another at 3 months, and I need to reschedule my 6 months thanks to Covid, I'm a bit late on that.
I really couldn't be happier with my results or the care that I had with Dr Magge. He really was fantastic.

WOW! YOU STILL LOOK FANTASTIC! And you're absolutely right! Dr. Magge is an extraordinary surgeon! I consider him to be a miracle worker. He LITERALLY saved my life after a blood vessel burst at my incision site following a beautifully done routine S-Lift procedure. I simply can't thank him enough for his calm demeanor, accurate diagnosis, decisive action and superb level of expertise. He not only acted immediately to address my emergency, he somehow miraculously preserved the beautiful aesthetic of my original S-Lift! I'm in awe of him and of Dr. Franklin Richards! As far as cosmetic surgeons go, there's no one better than these two doctors. No one!
I completely agree! I couldn't have chosen better then their practice! Truly grateful of my gut feeling haha
