5-1/2 Month Update - glad I didn't go bigger and didn't get a lift

Hi! So in love with my boobs! It's really like I've always had them now. I recently took a trip to VS to get measured and I was a 32DDD/34DD and wow I know they run small but my goodness. They don't carry all their bras in these sizes and they don't fit very well. I will be shopping other stores. I am having issues with my bathing suits now and have to buy more which is fine but it's hard to find things small enough around under the boobs and big enough for them (if they're sized S M L). I just said to my fiancé "thank God I didn't go bigger". As far as progress, they have pretty much settled I think. The right "problem child" (during surgery) is still a little higher but I can still feel some internal suturing that hasn't dissolved. My right was also always smaller and I'm the pictures you can see it, but in real life you cannot and no one will notice. My fiancé loves them. I love them. I do not regret this choice. I am so glad I DID NOT do a lift at this time, I'll save it for later when I'm actually old and sagging. I think not having the old scars to deal with, etc will make a lift in the future go better. Right now when I look in the mirror, I see a great pair of breasts for a 36 year old who nursed and truly am so trilled with my results.

3 months! Definitely fluffing!

Three month checkup yesterday. My PS is very happy with my progress. She's happy we didn't do a lift bc she knows i wouldn't be happy with the scars and my results are really good considering we didn't lift. I'm thrilled with my results so far. They're still a little firm sometimes but I can tell a big difference from a month ago. I cannot get a good picture where they look like I see them in the mirror, taking boob selfies is hard. One has dropped faster than the other, and my left is a little bigger (and always has and will be). None of this is noticeable in a bra or even naked unless you're looking for it. My fiancé LOVES them and they have DEFINITELY made sex more fun, for both of us. Before the BA, I wasn't really insecure but I wouldn't intentionally make my breasts the highlight of sex or foreplay, but now I LOVE making them the star of the show ;) Enjoy them, that's what I say!

I'm definitely a 34DD/DDD depending on the store and bra. I will not buy a really padded bra ever again. I'm loving tshirt bras and bralettes. I have one that pushes them up a little to really give cleavage, but isn't terribly padded. I'm loving the bra situation the best of anything to do with getting them!

5 wk Before - After

As good as I can get this comparison right now. Avoided lift and scars. So glad.

Dr. Sato is AMAZING. She's down to earth, honest and supportive. I think because she is a female doctor she makes you feel VERY comfortable and understands being a woman. She spent ALOT of time measuring and talking to me about my specific scenario, to make the best decision for my desired outcome. I liked that she listened to me and my wants, but gave her honest, objective and professional opinion. I've read on RS that many PS's will do exacly what a patient "wants" to make them happy or the opposite, don't listen to any input from their patients at all. Dr. Sato was the perfect balance, she and her office staff took the time to make me feel understood, showing me befores/afters of similar cases and discussing possible outcomes. Dr. Sato was very honest, discussing all risks associated with BA and made sure I had realistic expectations that my breasts weren't going to magically transform to Kate Upton's but were going to be a bigger, better version of what I had. She was very thorough in checking my medical history and getting clearance from my PCP due to my medical history which told me she is a doctor who really cares about me. Most importantly I felt she spent time really thinking about my case and coming up with the best scenario (style of implant, placement, etc.) to avoid a lift, since I wanted to avoid that due to scarring. I can't wait to see the outcome in a few months!
