Boards & tanks under faja

Hey ladies - Not all boards are created the same and I learned this the hard way. Before surgery, I purchased an M&D butterfly ab board (contains a very hard, metal? Inside) which I used up until a couple weeks ago. My massage lady pointed out that this board was digging into my skin below my breasts...I had been feeling the pain and discomfort as well as seen the lines this board created but I hadn't realized there were different types of boards out there. Thankfully, she put me on to the type of board that is more flexible, provides more/better coverage of abdomen, doesn't cut into my skin and I Love my new ab board. They sell these boards at my massage place, didn't come in a package so no trace of what brand but they're made of simple foam and work well (pics of both boards posted). Had to share this because I felt so relieved after switching boards in case any of you ladies is experiencing the same issue with ab board.
Also, I have found the lumbar molder to be a must have. It really provides great shape to lower back post-op.
Lastly, I was originally wearing tank tops under my faja that were too long or wide which required me to fold them resulting in lines on my skin after taking off my faja. I've recently fixed this issue by using much smaller (kids sized) cotton tank tops and this is working great for me since no lines to barely any lines are created this way.

On 11/15/16 I got breast implants, but I'm afraid...

On 11/15/16 I got breast implants, but I'm afraid my boob job was botched and am sharing my story in hopes of finding other BA patients who have/had the same post-op boob shape that I have now. I'd love to hear experiences with similar results and to know what was the ultimate outcome for other patients with similar results. Did your boob job start off looking like mine? Did your implants finally resolve or did you have any improvement in shape/dropping?


Here's my boob job experience:

I received 300cc? Silicone round under muscle.

I was a B cup and wanted to be a full C...I also told my surgeon I wanted low projection implants because, based on what I had read and seen online before my surgery, I wanted to ensure my boob job resulted in a natural/teardrop shape with most of the volume at center/lower portion of breast and that kinda flattened like natural breast tissue while I'm lying on my back, instead of that fake/hard-oranges-sitting-on-my-chest kind of look. My implants turned out way too high with too much projection on top portion of breasts (I hate this fake look, its the complete opposite of what I asked my surgeon for)..the center of breasts is flattened (not sure whether this was caused by an extremely tight bandage that was placed at clinic immediately post op..bandage was so tight around center of breasts I had difficulty breathing)...and then my nipple is very low pointing down with very little volume at lower portion of breasts..I can feel my soft natural breast tissue at lower portion, while everything above that feels like the hard implant. 



Shortly post-op, I complained to my surgeon that my breasts look deformed. She gave me an extra tight compression band to wear across the top portion of my breasts to put pressure to try forcing implants to drop, but this has not had any success. I'm one month post op now and, although I understand the recovery takes months, I'm terrified this will not resolve with time and I dread the idea of needing revision surgery. I've seen many BA patients' results and none of them ended up with deformed looking boobs like mine so it's even more difficult to belive that this will resolve in time since most/all patients I've seen do not end with results like mine.



I'm feeling quite disappointed/embarrassed with my post op boob shape and am terrified that this will not resolve with time. Please let me know if you're a BA patient who experienced a similar post-op shape.

Shape before & after BBL; Faja shaping butt??

Hi dolls, I am about 18 days post op and quite swollen, stiff and sore but I figured I'd go ahead and post my before and after pics to show how my shape has changed after BBL for those considering surgery.

Likes: I do like that Yily gave me a much better shape, a bit of an hour-glass figure....no more box shaped, I finally have hips!!

Dislikes: I hope once the swelling goes down, my waist shrinks more, right now I have a little belly pouch, unevenness, and hardness, but apparently this is expected after lipo and should resolve in time. I have a lot of fluid which I can feel because it feels extra hot especially in my back. I also would have liked an upside down heart-shaped butt with more fullness at the lower portion of butt and hips, instead my butt is more Apple shaped with more fullness at upper hips. **Ive noticed that the shape of the butt portion of faja Yily gave me after Sx, a Maria E faja, has the apple shaped pattern for the butt and I think this might be molding the shape of my butt. I'm looking for a new faja that would have a more heart shaped butt pattern.
Also, I would have liked more booty projection, not a shelf, but just more projection. I did tell Yily I wanted natural looking results, so maybe that's why she only went a little bigger.
