When I first had my procedure it was hard for me to find many photos of a lift w/ implant done on black women. So I wanted to add my journey in pictures. The good bad and very ugly lol. I feel sites always show you before and after but they always leave out the inbetween part. And there's a reason! I had a melt down on my bathroom floor the week after when they took the tape off. I cried for an hour straight! The buckling of the skin, ripples, dimples, etc... I want people to know it gets better and they aren't alone. I'm an exotic dancer/ stripper. I went back to work exactly a month later (4weeks). If this applies to you, NO POLE TRICKS UNTIL AROUND WEEK 8!!! Right now I'm a few days shy of 3mths post opt. I was already a saggy 34D I got a 400cc memory gel (silicone) implant under the muscle it took me to a 32DD though it looks like I'm a full D. I can fit a 34D or 32DD bra. I have no idea why my pics are upside down I will try to fix them. I hope this helps someone! Good luck!

U look so great! Since you are a year settled, do they feel natural? My husband is hesitant for me to get them cause he doesn't want "rock" boobs.lol
