I have wanted to have a breast augmentation for a very long time. I have always had small breast. I have breastfed 3 babies and that certainly didnt help improve that situation. In September 2016 I finally made and appointment for a consultation. I asked around with people who I knew had gotten Plastic surgery before and they all recommended the same doctor. So of course I went to that doctor. Im so glad I did!! Dr. Lockwood was fabulous right from the beginning. My whole experience was wonderful and I would recommend him to anyone.

Congrats! Do you know the size/type of your implants? Have you noticed them dropping a lot over the past two months?

Hi!! Im not a doctor at all. I think your breasts look good. They don't look like they are bottoming out to me. Definitely see your PS to find out though. Good luck! :) Keep us posted.

Hi! Thanks! My PS is almost 4 hours away so I posted a question and pics for an opinion witht he Docs on here. Its been mixed reviews :/ I might see if I can email my PS some pics and see if I need to go in to see him. Thanks for your reply!!:)

So i did not bottom out. I just needed to wait a bit for them to settle and now everything including the incisions are all in the right place and things are looking good!

You look awesome!! One thing my PS did was point out all my "visual flaws". I found out my rib cage sticks out further on one side, my shoulders sit uneven, etc. Kinda bummed me out until he explained that when someone gets cosmetic surgery, they will be at the mirror at least 20 times a day. Doing that, we start to look deeper at things we never had before. That being said, you are beautiful, your breasts look amazing! From what I've read, give it to the 6 month mark. If you still feel unsure about the look, call your PS for a consult :)

Thank you! My PS also told me my ribs cage shape was off! I think that my implants werent put in very high to begin with. Ive noticed looking at all these BA pictures online that majority sit very high up to begin with and mine never did. I know that my PS had to maneuver a bit more then usual to get the size I picked to fit so im thinking thats why they were never high to start. But I am going to wait a bit more to see. Thanks for the great compliment! Makes me feel better!!:)

I am now just over 4 months post op. I am still loving my results! I do wish I went a bit bigger and probably will in a couple years. I feel like they have gone down in size in the last little while. They are squishy and soft. I still get twinges of pain but nothing like in the beginning. I am so happy with my PS and am glad I went with him! Looking forward to filing out a bathing suit top this summer!! :)

Looking FABULOUS!!! Thanks for the update, I get worried bc I still have random pains and "stings" at 6 weeks post. So terrified any pain I have is CC haha! Hearing that someone else has them and no worries helps a bunch! You seem fully ready for summer, congrats on amazing results!!
User Avatar
May 15, 2017
Thanks!! Im still worried about CC too! I think I check on a regular bases to make sure they arent starting to get too hard! Lol.

Oh I do too lol. I'm also told to massage 3X a day for the rest of my life, so I give em a good move around 2-3X a day. If I feel pain I start to massage haha. It's a horrifying possibility!
User Avatar

I was never told to massage at all. Sometimes when I get the twinges I will a bit. I thought I had bottomed out or started to awhile back and was in a full panic but I didnt and just needed to be patient for everything to settle more. Just something you wanted so bad you fear itll end too good to be true!

Oh yeah. I have had one nightmare since surgery of my boob bursting open and my implant came out. Lmao it was too unreal, like I knew it was dreaming the whole time lol.
User Avatar
May 17, 2017
That would definitely be a nightmare!! Thankfully it wasnt true!
May 17, 2017
Likewise. I was told not to massage. Although I did once in the early stages and never again.. like hmb713 told me do what my PS told me to do. They know best! But you look fab! And I can't wait til I'm at your stage. It's so reassuring to see and read x

You look great! Did you say your PS had to lower one or both of your folds? And the issue you had when you thought you bottomed out- has that gone away?? Hope all is well! Would love to see an update :)
User Avatar

Thanks so much! I did have both folds lowered. Once my implants settled a bit more the issue I was having thinking I bottomed out went away. Everything is good. I love them! I may post an update soon!
