We are supposed to develop breasts when all of our friends do, right? Around 12 they started, just like everyone else I knew...but they never seemed to get much past the pea to pancake stage! My mom kept telling me I was a late developer...then after breastfeeding two kids and having VS tell me we don't have anything smaller...I decided to take nature into my own hands!

Implant comparison with prosthetic breast enhancers
For the record I wanted to add the dimensions of my implants: 11.4cm width, 10.1cm height, 5.0cm projection. The reason is because I actually bought prosthetics at Amazon that are called: Triangle Pals Breast Enhancers (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0040MLY4K/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) size 1, which were supposed to be 1-2 cup sizes larger. Once I committed to going ahead with seriously looking into surgeons I started wearing them full-time (not just in the comfort of my own home). I had the office give me the exact implant type that my surgeon selected and then compared the dimensions. Lucky for me they were pretty darn similar! So, by the time I had surgery, I had already been my desired size for a few months. I was used to it and the other people I was around were slowly eased into it as well.
Highly recommended! My Dr. loved the idea and wanted to know if they listed cc's...they didn't on Amazon, but they have a customer service line that might have that answer.

6 week check-up and photos
Got my 6 week check-up in and all is going well/as planned. I feel one breast (the left) is either more swollen (still) than the right or the implant is just not in as good a place as the right, but the Dr. thinks at the 6 month mark it will catch up and look fine....so, I'm crossing my fingers!
My big question (other than the size difference and shape of the two breasts) was if I would ever be able to push them together. Right now they are so stiff they barely budge laterally. They are much softer than they were however, they still seem really firm.
I asked the assistant to bring in the implant I had so I could feel it again, I just wanted some confirmation that the shaped cohesive silicon ones I had weren't really as "gummy bear-ish" as I had remembered. Thank goodness, when she brought them out, they were much softer than I had remembered and gave me renewed hope that mine would be much softer by the end of the year. Dr. Tantillo also confirmed that they were a bit firm right now and to just be patient. He also assured me that I would get the slope I was hoping for in my consultation. So, I'll just have to wait...but no matter what, how they look right now is still WAY more satisfying than how I was prior to my BA! So, I'm happy!

You look awesome! I got the same implants. They do get softer. I did the same thing at my 6 week appointment asked to feel the sample implant lol. I'm about 9 weeks post and I can push em up and in. They are really feeling like my own breasts. I think they aren't fully settled yet. Mine are naturally far apart so I'm looking forward to really pushing em together for special occasions. Right now I'm getting used to wearing bras again. I didn't wear one for 7 weeks per doctors orders. Congrats you look great and they'll look even better with time.

Thanks so much, nice to hear how others with the same implant are doing! Mine are starting to finally loosen up...the left one still seems bigger than the right and not as nicely shaped, but I hear that us common, so I'm holding off all judgement until 6 months to a year! I really am so happy, and LOVE not having to wear a bra to still have a shape!

This is exactly the way I look. I just don't want to go through surgery again! Mine have looked different from the beginning.

i agree...going through another OPTIONAL surgery sucked...and I've been bound up and constrained for a month now. BUT, I have to say, the left one is PERFECT now, and I'm glad it's finally done. This will be a sweet summer because now I won't feel paranoid in the bikini of my choosing! Try not to think about it, time will pass quicker (for the first time since I started all of this last May, I don't even look at myself...just staying busy until I'm cleared to "be normal" again)
