Not Happy

So it's been a while since I've updated. Mostly, it's been because I'm pretty upset about the outcome of my boobs and I haven't wanted to be on here to remind myself of it. I was so happy when I first came out of surgery and had the tapes on. After my appointment where the doctor took the tapes off, I went home and took a look in the mirror and did not like what I saw. I had a lot of wrinkling (which was fine because I know it can diminish over time), but mainly my nipples were different shapes and my left nipple is a whole 1/2 centimeter farther away from my sternum than the other one is. There was also a very tight suture on the top right of my left nipple. I let it heal and fall off on it's own, but now there is a mark in the pigment of my nipple where it was. Lastly, instead of having small, thin scars, I have gigantic ones on the underside of my breasts. I've looked at breast pictures for hours on here and they do not look like a typical scar. Looking back, when the doctor came in to mark me before surgery, he didn't measure anything. He literally took 10 seconds and drew three lines down on my chest and that was it. I wish I had said something then, no wonder my left nipple is not the same. I ended up being a full AA so I am very flat. I have no problems with that part at all. I actually like being very small. It's the nipples and scars that are my issue. I will take photos and post them later. I need to make an appointment later with my doctor, also which I have put off because I was avoiding having to deal with the unhappiness from my breasts. I don't know how I am going to go about telling the doctor how I feel about this surgery. Anybody have a good experience in that area? Thanks for listening.

3 Days PO

I am feeling much better today. The first two days I was a little out of it from the drugs and afraid to move. I was so excited to be able to shower the second day. I was not only able to get clean, but was able to check out the new boobs! I am very pleased with the results thus far. I don't know what they will look like when they settle or how they look without tape, but as of now I think they are great. They are small, perky, look even, and are natural! They definitely look better than I thought they would so far at this stage. Dr. Csikai and his staff were amazing on the day of surgery. They made me feel so comfortable, I wasn't even that nervous feeling. I was out like a light before I knew it and awoke to someone giving me sips of sprite. Dr. Csikai called himself that evening to check in. I have had a great experience so far!

I took some pictures of them on day 2 PO and I also will upload some of my boobs after they had been deflated awhile and after I had stopped breastfeeding that I meant to upload a long time ago.
