So a year and a half on and I am 100% happy with my decision to get the surgery. My scarring hasn’t healed as well as I would have hoped but I knew that was always a risk. In my opinion I feel if you are really concerned about the scarring you’re probably not the best candidate for surgery. My breasts haven’t changed much in the past six months. They’ve definitely got a more natural shape than initially after the surgery but I still wear the same cup size. Mentally I feel my mind has caught up and I am truly happy with the size. Although I intially wanted to go smaller I now see they are in proportion to my body type. I’m 5ft 8 and wear a C/D.
The biggest pieces of information from my personal experience are;
1. My final cup size didn’t really change much from when I initially had the surgery. (I did have drains)
2. It took my mind a really long time to see the reality of my new cup size. I kept imaging my boobs were so much bigger than what they are.
3. I do have visible scars but I honestly don’t mind - and neither have any men ;)
4. Buying bras and bikinis won’t suddenly become loads easier. My boobs aren’t a typical shape so I have to try lots of styles.
5. My surgeon was very wise in suggesting I go down to a d cup. I originally wanted a b cup and realise this would have been too small!

I went to get measured at Victoria's Secret today and came out as a 34dd! I tried on a few different styles and managed to find one which fits me at the sides and in the cup! ( A rare occurrence). They are pretty pricey so don't think I'll be getting loads from there but they do fit well and feel very sturdy! It's also strapless so will be great for summer tops/dresses. It's called the dream angel multiway if anyone is interested..

Not a lot of changes to report but getting happier with my breast everyday. In the past month I've stopped worrying about their size and accepted them more as being my boobs now! Before I still kept picturing my old breast when I looked in the mirror.
The redness has gone down a lot even though I still have a little around the incisions. I have seen a difference since I've been more thorough with scar massage, although they are still quite thick underneath the breast. I'm not that bothered though as they are the least visible!
