How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

9 weeks PO and time for bras!
Finally I feel ready to buy some non-wired bras and move away from sports bras!
John Lewis measured me at 34D and M&S measured me at between 30 and 32D. I actually took the white bra back. It was a pull over the head one and the band ended up feeling far too big while the cups felt too small. I went back to John Lewis to get remeasured and another lady said I was a 32E. Soooo happy!! I ended up going for the 32DD in the black bra because the E cup ended up feeling too wide for my frame and digging into my armpits. The DD is apparently too small because my boobs can be seen at the back of the cup under my armpits and also there's a big gap between the strap and my skin (the strap should rest on my skin). These bras are only temporary until I can return to wired bras (VS, I can't wait!) and this black one feels comfortable so for now, this is what I've chosen!
I'm very happy I'm back in a bra, just can't wait for a push up so I can have a good cleavage!!

8 weeks PO
Not much has happened in the last 3 weeks which is why I haven't posted anything.
My boobs feel slightly softer and jiggle slightly when I move which I'm really happy about. My right boob is definitely more settled and is starting to move into its final shape but it's a lot smaller than I hoped for. My left however is a lot bigger and rounder. I can also feel an obvious ridge at the top towards the middle which I don't like and I hope it goes away when it settles. I'm slightly worried though because I've always had this ridge from the implant. My boyfriend noticed it the other day as well and I'm really disappointed, I want them to look and feel real. My surgeon did warn me that polyurethane covered implants take longer to soften but I'll definitely bring it up with him when I next see him.
I still get little shooting pains through my boobs, rubbing the skin gently seems to help. My nipples are back to how they were, thankfully and the skin underneath my nipples is still slightly numb.

Mondor's Cord
Noticed yesterday that I've developed a Mondor's Cord at the end of the incision under my right breast. I have no idea what caused it but a few days ago felt a slight pulling in that area. It's not painful but it just feels as though it'll rip if I stretch out that area. I've been doing gentle sit ups (roughly 300 a day) so I'm not sure whether these have been aggravating it but I'll stop for a week just in case.
I emailed these pics over to my surgeon who confirmed that it was a Mondor's Cord and that it would go on its own.
