WORTH IT$6,550
I had my final check up today with dr. Gronka. Still very happy with the results. Got my before and after photos from his office and thought I'd share;) it's hard to believe that was my before breasts I have grown so used to them. My incision look a little more red in the photos but honestly I think they were more red from the bra I was wearing.

Well I think I'm pretty much settled
Almost two months post op. I'm completely healed and I think fully settled. My scars are almost invisible. I'm super happy with the size chosen for me wouldn't want them any larger as I think I would have troubles finding bras ect. I have been back living life as usual for over a month now. I still wear a sports bra to bed. Underwire lightly lined during the day. I wore the dress to my Christmas party bra less had both girls and guys tell me I had nice boobs.. Lol most would be offended I wasn't at all hey I paid for them:) my husband normally not the jealous kind followed me like a hawk.
Advice for anyone that hasn't gotten their boobies yet. 1. Don't be your own surgeon find someone you trust and trust them to pick size and shape. I went to one consultation with dr.gronka knew I trusted him showed him wish pics and he picked size and profile. I did not try sizers I didn't even request a profile. I know I'm not a surgeon and he does this all the time. 2) give them time to settle. Know that they won't look the same after 6 weeks. Don't stress. I worried so much about my nipples being too low but I just needed to allow time for them to drop.
Also thank you to everyone on this site for kind words and encouragement. It's truly meant a lot to me. Also thank you to everyone who have wrote reviews and posted pictures.

Excellent advice about finding a PS you trust and not being your own doctor. You look so good!!! I can't believe your scars after 6 weeks either. Amazing :)

I completely agree with you about the surgeon. I trusted Dr, Hahm to choose the right ones for me. We did do sizers to get an idea of proportion and what I was hoping for. He handled the rest. There was no bwd measurement that I am aware of. I came out of surgery delighted, and two weeks later, I am still delighted. I know they will change, but I am happy with how they are right now. Mine may not change much because they are subglandular due to the DIEP flap, not subpectoral. You look fantastic!! Thank you for your posts. You have been very helpful.

I read your story. You are so inspiring. I am so happy that you are enjoying your results! You deserve this:)
December 16, 2015
I think you had a great result! I thought it was funny, what you said about your husband following you like a hawk! You did look hot, hot, hot in that dress!
I'm with you. Im trusting my surgeon. She knows the size required for the results I desire.
Thank you for sharing your personal story and photos. Plastic surgery is scary and expensive and it helps me to know what others are thinking and feeling about procedures that I am about to undergo.
Is this goodbye? I hope you keep us posted long term about your feelings and any changes.
Best to you!

Aww thank you:) I defiantly will and feel free to ask any questions to me. It is pricey but I don't regret it at all. I saved for over a year and honestly would have done it sooner had I known how much my hubby loves them:) when is your surgery date? Even with my complications and two little ones at home it was really a breeze. Best of luck to you:)

I just realized you are my mwl friend. Did you decide boobies first? I'm currently saving for a butt lift for next year. It's just the back half of a lower body lift. I'm nervous because their aren't many reviews on that. Most people do the front first if the split up the lower body lift.
December 17, 2015
I'm having an arm lif and BA on 2/3/16. I hope to have a lower body lift in a few years.
I plan to start some reviews after my pre-op on 1/19. I will be doing a review for each procedure separately. So if you still want to browse RealSelf.....;)

How exciting it will be here before you know it. I really probably need my arms done too but it doesn't bother me as much as my thighs. I can't wait to see your results. I wish there was a effective skin tightening. My surgeon said if he does a lower body lift in two procedures I should only be down for two weeks instead of a month. I keep going back and forth about what I want done first. I have been having a lot of trouble finding reviews with the rear done first. Until I have decided what I want I'm just saving money. Anyway I'm so much happier with my body after boobies. It makes me look less at my droopy skin.
December 18, 2015
Lol, my arms bother me the most. Then I started thinking since my surgeon will be in the vicinity, maybe I get boobs too!
My abdomen is horrible, but because I am childless so far, I will wait a couple years before tackling lower body.
I am getting excited, but nervous. I worry I won't be able to workout , mostly running, With them.

You will do fine:) the first 5 days were the worst but I must say it's really not that bad. I gained 15 lbs from swelling but it was all water weight. I weigh the same as I did before the implants 135lbs being that I weigh myself daily and consistently worry about putting the weight back on, I freaked out when I gained 15 lbs. just eat really healthy drink lots of water and you should do fine w/o exersize.

Drying after spray tan tit pics why not?
Everything is great! I love my boobs still. Best thing I ever did for myself. Currently letting my spray tan dry so why not take some selfies.

You are looking great! I love the shape! I can't wait to get a spray tan, but I'm going to hold off a bit longer because I had a full lift. You are going to be turning heads at that Christmas party ;-)
December 3, 2015
Woah! Love it. I have one spray tan left on a prepaid groupon and reeeeeeally want to get it done, but was worried how it would look on my still really dark scars. I don't even see any incisions on you though, at least in this pic. This makes me want to have it done sooner rather than later! :)
December 3, 2015
My incisions are pretty well healed. I have been using those silicone scar strips pretty much 24/7 even the doc commented on how well they are healed.
December 3, 2015
OMG, you were A? defenitely had more skiin ( pregnancy/ies), I am going to be more positive anyway. Thank you for weighing in on my review. I pray my surgeon turns out to want to meet my expectations, and gives me boobs within 375-425 cc range.
