wanted big but natural on my tall body- got my breast aug w/ teardrop gummies 445-495cc

Hi everyone, sorry I know it's been awhile. I went in for my 1 ur post op and we discussed options. Some major things have been made pretty clear- 1. My skin stretches to adapt, same with my pocket 2. Textured didn't make a difference for me as far as adherence, but no they haven't rotated 3. I should go lighter in weight and get a suture repair with non dissolving sutures inside wrapped twice or three times. 4. He said this is less expensive than the internal bra and they seem to produce same results 5. We decided I'd consider 400cc, for both breasts, silicone not gummies 6.his revision cost is free, but I'd have to pay for anesthetic and new implants. Total new cost would be approximately $3100, which I can't afford for a while. So, I'm thinking next year. The transition to smooth should help with rippling as well. My boons are still big and pretty, just a bit low, nipples angled a bit high, and some rippling. Mentally, I'm great!

It's been confirmed at my 6 month post op that my suspicions were correct.... implants dropped. I'm really heartbroken.

Need a capusulloraphy.... suture repair to bring up crease in correct spot.. will fix my nipple placement with that and the double bubble look that's MINIMALLY showing on left breast. Prob is the drop brought my nipples higher and then i lose upper pole.

I'm really sad at this point I just feel like i need support. My plastic surgeon will reoperate for free and i only have to pay anesthesiologist.... yes i have to go under general again. Prob is surgery time increased and thus for anesthesia quote is now $2500.... I'll be reimbursed the diff if time is quicker. I don't have that money nor do i want to do this at all.

He said my skin stretched and I have thin skin & stretch marked breasts from pregnancy. I know this isn't his or my fault just my body but I'm not willing to put in smaller implants. Plastic surgeons on here say Capsulorraphy is simple but I'm still upset.

We discussed mesh, suture repair, downsizing, up sizing (also an option), etc. Still asking lots of questions and starting to research the procedure. I thought my breasts were perfect and they still look great.... but def have dropped.

I have so much to think about.

Where have I been? I needed a break from realself! I love my breasts!!! I feel womanly, sexy, confident.... believe it or not I still feel natural even though they're big implants!

Why did i need the break? Let's just say it was making me second guess my complete satisfaction and making me insecure! I had so many questions..... So many breasts, all beautiful, but why do my nipples point slightly up? Should i have gotten hp or round or areolar incisions? A lift? Bigger cc? What if i lose weight, gain muscle? Did i communicate my aesthetic? Can i still rough house play? Too many thoughts!!!!!! Too many worries!!!

I decided to take some time to look at them myself, i chose my dr for a reason! Trust! And, since my surgery he's gotten crazy amounts of incoming five star reviews, seems like 2 new ones a week, and he's been putting in a lot of the same implants! Makes me feel good like he knows just how awesome he did on me ;)

Now that I've taken a true break i finally see my own beauty! I think i was overwhelmed with how beautiful everyone else is that i started questioning my own. I'm so happy with my implants i got then for me and only me and i know i made the right choice in surgeon bc he was the expert i trusted to make the qualified decisions.

I just wanted to update to say realself was the greatest gift in my PRE surgical research and in the immediate post surgical research but i think my time here is close to done. ... I hope I helped anyone in their journey u are all beautiful and wonderful.....and smart to research your decisions!!! Do what is best for YOU!
