In a week or so it will be the one year anniversary for these new boobies! How do I like them? Well both good and bad...I think they look fantastic under clothes, really. And I don't think I would want to go back to small [RS bleep]. However, the girls did not drop the way I expected them to. I'm not sure if they dropped too much or...but as you can see from the picture my incisions sit about an inch to an inch and half above the fold. It bothers me. I started using the silicone tapes and I'm starting to see a little result. But it still worries me. I also don't think they look or feel very natural. My boyfriend still loves them. But when I take my bra off and look in the mirror I have a very mixed feeling.
Do I regret having the surgery? No. Do I regret not having thought enough before the surgery? Yes.

hi there, just curious if your PS instructed you to massage after surgery? I have heard that can effect the way they feel/drop afterward. Either way, they look amazing and fit your frame to a T. How did you like your dr? I am south of Houston and looking into them. Thanks!!

Yes he did. I think it helped but don't think it made as much of a difference. I think it's probably because I was extremely flat chested pre-op, so it wouldn't look or feel as natural as someone who was B or C pre-op. Dr. Feldman is a great surgeon, I'd recommend for a least a consultation :)

Thank you! I actually had a consult with him today and I feel like it went really well. I am honestly just still really nervous but I think i will get over it. they told me that my last consult with him will be at 2 weeks and after that i have to pay $250 to see him.... was it the same for you?
December 1, 2016
I think my last post-op visit was also at 2 weeks. I guess that's the standard unless there is a complication? I don't think they mentioned a cost to me but I never asked about consultation beyond 2 weeks post-op. I had couple simple questions in the past year and I just emailed Jeannette (the patient coordinator) and she was fairly helpful

Thank you! That's super helpful! Another random question, since your b/a, have your worn a bra 24/7? Ive been doing research like crazy lately and heard that's another factor of how they drop. My "before" boobies are so much like yours and I'm hoping my results are similar to yours.

Hi there, did you go over or under the muscle?
November 25, 2016
Under!

Hi there, just read your review and I too have the same concerns as you did that they will not feel as soft as other women who would had started with more breast tissue. How are they now? On your year 2 did they get any softer? :/ How have you been?

Here is to 8 months! They look great, the only thing is I know they don't feel as soft as natural boobs, but I was aware of that as I had little breast tissue. My scars sit about an inch above my fold :(

Thanks so much for your updates, they look amazing! Would you be able to tell me more about how they feel vs natural breasts? I'm so curious because I have similar pre-op measurements
September 1, 2016
hi there! Sorry about my late response. They definitely feel harder than natural breasts. I mean, they look good and all, but I'm sometimes self-conscious about it being hard especially when I hug someone, it can feel like two balloons on my chest.
September 1, 2016
I think it is largely due to the fact that I barely had any breast tissue pre-op though...
September 13, 2016
they look great though :) i'm still on the fence myself, thanks for the response!

Finally no restriction! I'm still wearing the surgical bra at night as the doc instructed bc I sleep on my sides. Strangely today I had some sharp pain in my breasts but I suspect it's due to nerve regeneration.

They look so natural. I can't wait for mine to settle. Morning boob is better but they are still very swollen.

I know how you feel! It's only gonna get better everyday though :)

They look amazing! How are the scars looking? Have you been putting on gel?
April 9, 2016
The scars are okay, slowly healing. I have been massaging them with lotion daily

What profile did you get? They look amazing
April 9, 2016
Full profile. I heard moderate plus gives the most natural feeling/look, but the doc said since I barely had any natural breast tissue, it's better to go with full profile to avoid potential dimples on the top

Do you ever feel the top shelf of the implant? Or is it a natural slope
June 18, 2016
What CC's did you get? Love the way they turned out! I'm getting mine done by Dr. Feldman at the end of this month
