30 Yr Old, No Kids, Explant, Lipo, Fat Transfer to Breasts

January 21, 2017

Wow I think I'm down to a B now - very happy so far. I totally agree with you on how it's better to have more instead of wanting more.

January 21, 2017

What size did you start with before surgery and right after? Do you know how much cc's you had put into each breast?

January 22, 2017

I was a 34 DD , 310cc implants so some of that was def fat. After explant, he transferred 500cc in each breast. About half survives and I just put on a 34B and they looked good, but the cup size is really just how much coverage you want - I bet I could also wear a C cup.

January 22, 2017

Yeah I'm definitely a D still and can't go smaller yet. I was pretty shocked. I thought I was going to shrink to a C (my desired size) but I'm actually ok with how the D's look. Just switching to the fat made my breasts look automatically smaller, thank goodness. Lol I am just happy we don't have those bothersome implants any more. I literally feel so thankful to have them out because they've caused me so much discomfort physically and mentally!!

I wonder how much swelling you still have left? I'm not going to buy a cup size bra for another month.

January 22, 2017

All my swelling went down. I was at a DD. My boobs don't hurt at all. I can squeeze them and don't feel nothing. It just depends on the person on how much fat they retain. My doctor said I had dense fat cells, so idk if that had anything to do with it. They say people lose between 30-50% volume. I'm not buying a real bra for awhile because I'm still exercising and losing weight.

So glad you're doing great! I"m undergoing a BL and aug next week and trying to pick my size.. I"m 5'8, 155lbs, at the gym ALL THE TIME.. i want a modest size.. a full C/maybe a small D..at the most!! I'm currently a 34b.. I'm thinking i shouldn't go over 300cc's but my doc and his staff are trying to sway me into 339/371.. Thankfully after reading blogs like yours I'm gonna go with my gut and stay smaller!! Happy healing.. you look fantastic already!!

January 28, 2017

Thank you! Yeah I got talked into going larger and regretted the whole two years I had them. I'm glad my story helps with your decision :) good luck on your surgeries!!

January 28, 2017

So what cc would you have wished you had gotten to begin with?? How tall are you ??

January 28, 2017

And you were filled to 450cc before right??

January 28, 2017

I am 5'6. I was originally going to go with 300 like you. But the doc kept saying how girls regret going on the smaller side. He didn't have any tools for me to get a good guesstimate on what 450cc's would like like on me. I felt pressured that I would regret going small with a 12k price tag. Instead I had the opposite experience and felt like I wasted 22k on total surgeries because I was given the wrong advice. I wish I would've stuck with my gut feeling. Everything I wore looked too revealing on me. Even a normal t-shirt. I gained weight because I felt seriously depressed because I felt like I no longer liked like me. Now I'm feeling a whole lot better with being at a D. But I am still losing weight and will probably end up at a C.

Looked*

January 28, 2017

Oh and are you getting implants or fat augmentation? I went with 400/450cc on both the implants and then on the transfer once the implants were removed

January 28, 2017

Yea.. I'm sticking to my guns on this one.. With 300cc being a C cup just sitting on the table, i don't think I'll have any regrets staying smaller.. I'd much rather be smaller than larger.. Of all the reviews I'd read on here, the ones i like the best are all under 300.. There are just a few that i like that chose over 300 but i wouldn't want to even be that big. They love them and look great on them but it's just not me.. I'd be so depressed if i was made too big.. bc like you said.. i wouldn't feel like me anymore.. Thanks for posting:)

I’m also in AZ. I would like to know too about the cost with explant and fat transfer. Did you have the fat transfer months after the explant or during the explant?

The electronic massager I use

Mlh30January 7, 2017

I've been using this for about 10-15 min a night on lipo'd areas. It was a little painful at first, but barely bothers me now. I originally bought it to get rid of knots in my muscles and thought to try it on lumpy areas. It definitely helped break up scar tissue underneath my skin.

Progress

Mlh30January 6, 2017

Hello! Here are some pics at my 1 month-ish mark. I am still waiting to get fitted for a bra size in about 2 more weeks. I kept a lot of volume with working out, but I can definitely feel that my sports bras are fitting a lot looser. I'm actually surprised at how much fat has stayed despite exercise 5 days a week. At first I was afraid of losing too much but now that this time has passed with rigorous exercise, I'm thinking I'm going to be ok in the boob department. At least for my standards anyway. Once I slim up some more, I think my boobs will be at my desired size.

As for the lipo, incisions are healing up nicely and I'm able to exercise every muscle group including abs. Still lumpy in some areas but I know that will go away in time. Still keeping up with electronic massage regimen.

You look great ! What are you using for the massages?

January 7, 2017

Thank you! And you as well! I'm just using an electronic hand massager. I put it on medium high and pretty much let it beat up my stomach lol

January 7, 2017

Does your skin feel hard or everything is softening up?

January 7, 2017

My stomach is pretty soft minus a few lumps here and ther
