It looks great! I just got approved and will be having surgery in March. I am curious what size you started out and what you ended up being? We have similar measurements it appears. I know insurance has to remove 480 cc from each. I'd love to be a C cup in the end, but of course doctors don't measure in cups :-).
I started at 36DDD or 38DD and am now about 36C. He took 490 from one side and 670 from the other, I think. I love my size.
That's about the same as me. I guessed you were a C as I am the same.

Almost 3 months post op

Well I am almost 3 months post op. I am feeling pretty normal for the most part. Still some sensitivety now and again and I haven't yet been able to sleep on my stomach (more mental I think rather than physical though). I healed nicely and am starting to get normal shape back to my breasts. I am very happy I did this and would do it all over again. I didn't find it all that painful just very uncomfortable. I have just completed week 4 of C25K and will tell you that running with smaller breast is AWESOME

I am going to have a tummy tuck in a couple of months and will hopefully be able to have a nice siloutte again. I will be posting my journey with that as well if anyone is interested in following.

7 Weeks, Almost Feeling Normal Again

I am 7 weeks this weeks. I started back at the gym last week. Right boob was in extreme after my first workout - come to find out 2 days later, it was a stitch knot. My husband pulled it and it was intant relief.

I started C25K this week so I have been incorporating some jogging and I feel pretty good. I am not going as hard as I can as I still want to play it safe and work up slowly.

I think my scars are looking pretty good. I use Maderma twice a day and made my own lotion potion (cocoa butter lotion, vitamin E oil, almond oil, and castrol oil). It helps the itching and is suppose to help the scar and tome the skin - we will see.

You look great . Do you think you're going to be B cup? I'm at bit taller but otherwise very similar to you. Haven't done any consults yet. Thanks for sharing your story!
Depends on the bra. I am a B or C cup. I think most or all of my swelling is gone at this point. I will still change shape though over the next few months.
You look amazing! My scars are very ropey. I am a bit jealous of how tiny your scars under your breasts look.
Thank you. Sorry about your scars. Do you apply anything to them? Try my mixture of oil. I massage the Maderma and oils in twice per day.
My PS wants me to use silicone tape only. He says the ropiness is due to my half Asian ethnicity and tendency to get keloid like scars. I will keep taping for the recommended 3 months, but would love to try your oil mixture massages at night.
