Loved reading your story, and the girls look FANTASTIC!! I am struggling with the size my surgeon wants to take me- a D cup. I'm 5'9, 185. Size 12/10. D seems to small! But I'm coming around to it. :)

I just had be done five days ago. I must admit I'm am shocked as they look mangled and bruised. My areole and nipples looked warped and squashed and the scarring seems lumpy....glue and hook stitches used. Silicone dressing off and showered already. Just waiting for the bruising and swelling to come down and hopefully they will be looking like yours!!! I feel flat chested at the moment and a tiny bit scared of the outcome. But surgeon said if any need arises he will do revision. Next is my. One...then hopefully a tummy tuck for my herniated tummy after four children.....thanks for sharing....Shells from Australia

still doing fantastic. My surgery was September 23rd 2014, and I began at a 36g. I have now landed at a 36c. I'm beyond thrilled!!!
if you have read my review from the beginning, you may have read my disillusionment with feeling like the doctor had not taken out enough. I thought that I wanted to be a 36b.
distillation man is a totally normal part of the ups and downs of healing and recovery. My underarm fat has chilled out, my shape has settled quite nicely, and my dog ears are significantly less noticeable.
my husband just took me on a wonderful trip overseas, and I went braless under strapless lovely pink tops and adorable dresses. We went hiking and I were just a bikini top with my shorts -- it was so freeing! I was thrilled to have already had the surgery prior to the trip.
I hope you wait no longer!and if you have questions about the recovery., I'd love to answer any questions I can.

hi I have just read you hole story you are so right about the realistic understanding of what the outcome can be. I never got lipo under arm either but it wasn't offered, I wanted to ask you if you found that it went away with weight loss and from my stage nearly three months to where you are now. Did you find that they changed much I have the odd squishy bit with a slight yellow tinge around my right breast at the nipple area I am hoping it is still some swelling it is like some fluid retention, I have been on my feet and back to normal within a week so I don't know if I am still swollen a bit, I was in a normal bra but felt a bit put out with the side boobage so I have gone back to my compression bra which feels more comfortable 24/7

hi cuttiepie. My doctor explained to me that the distinction between underarm fat vs breast tissue is very clear to discern when he is doing the surgery. Unless the patient gets liposuction to take out underarm fat then it is very clear that it isn't breast tissue, and the surgeons won't usually remove any. :-/......... He explained to me that due to the smaller size of the breasts PO, and due to some of the swelling, that the underarm fat would actually appear bigger or more pronounced. As the swelling went down I began noticing it less. If I am successful in losing weight (I've a goal of about 10 pounds), I'm assuming it will decrease even more! !!

And I know the feeling of seeing those rolls on the sides....I still struggle a bit, but it has improved significantly since my swelling went away! If you're still yellowy, you still have some fluid to release!

Thank you for sharing so much of your journey! If I were wearing the right bra size, I would probably be a 36G or H, I am spilling out of my Victoria's Secret 38DDD and constantly feel the need to check them and adjust them back in to the cup. Quad boob is just not a good look, ya know? Having no quantifiable understanding of what size I will be once surgery is done has been a real source of anxiety for me. Your posts have let me feel much more peace about trusting my surgeon. He is going to give me the best shape and size for my body.
Did the insurance payments work out well? Insurance has said I need to have 450 grams removed from each breast. It shouldn't be a problem since I have "very dense breast tissue" according to my mammogram, but not removing as much as insurance stipulated has worried me.
Thanks again! You look absolutely fabulous!

Good for you! Our stories sound quite kindred.
Insurance has paid just as expected, with zero surprises. As you can read, I was very insistent worn my PS that I wanted to be SMALL, and a D would still be too large. If he/she understands this, then trust in their expertise! -------a B world's have been too small for me. ....based on breast root, the height of my breasts on my rib cage, and my present weight. I'm so so so glad I did it!!!

That is a relief to hear that insurance wasn't a problem. I have a pre-op March 5th, and will have a giant list of questions to ask. Thank you again for sharing your experience! You have helped me feel so much better!
