WORTH IT$6,000
I had my breast lift on January 5, 2022. After breastfeeding three kids for a total of six years I knew it was time for something. I wanted it to be as natural as possible. I decided on getting a breast lift only without breast implants.

Overall I feel great. I never had to take norco. I just take ibuprofen for swelling. I am sore like if I just got done doing a chest workout. Very pleased with my recovery so far.

They look good! And you're healing looks really good also. Congratulations! And only $6000!!!! Jean, mine was $10,000

Thank you! I was expecting to be in a lot more pain but I feel great. Hopefully the healing keeps going well. When I found out it was $6,000 I decided to get it done right away. Today is day five and I will post some more pictures after I go for a follow up on Thursday 1/13.

I'm looking at the same surgery for the same reason! You look great! Do you feel that your breasts look the same size as pre-lift? I don't want implants but am thinking about fat grafting to retain pre- baby bra size (34dd, currently 36ddd as I'm weaning my last LO)

Going into surgery I was about a 34 C and I feel like that's what they will be once they settle. So I am happy with the size. I also asked about doing a fat transfer but my doctor doesn't do them because it ups your chances of getting breast cancer. Just ask, I am sure all surgeons are different.
January 9, 2022
Oh I had no idea. My surgeon does fat graft to breasts but didn't mention the increased risk. I will do my own research and speak to her about it. Thank you!

Really? I have never, ever heard that in all my years of researching breast fat transfer!
January 9, 2022
I had a breast fat transfer a couple of years ago. I researched it and never, ever came across that information. I don't think that's true.
January 10, 2022
Yeah when I asked about it because I wanted to add some fullness they just told me nicely they don't do it because of the chances of cancer cells being where ever the fat was. I just trusted his opinion and sure I could have gotten a second opinion but he's a really good surgeon where I live and just left it at that.

Hope you share more post op pics as you heal. Our breasts are similar and I am always looking for people who look like me so I have a realistic expectation of what is possible when I get mine done after I am done having kids.
January 10, 2022
Of course! I will share more pictures on Thursday when I have my follow up. I am very impressed with the recovery especially since I have three kids (8,5,&2) Glad I can show you what is possible!
January 9, 2022
I think everything looks really good! What size were you before you lift? And what size do you think they will be after?
January 10, 2022
I was a 34C and the doctor said he thinks once they settle they will be a 34 c as well. So I didn't lose anything they are just perkier now. I am very happy with everything right now.

January 11, 2022

My family ended up getting covid so my post op appointment isn’t until next week. Lots of bruising but they said all is normal. I am feeling great still. I am able to lift my arms over my head now.
