Hello small boobies welcome back...still recovering...but feeling like myself...the rap is to make sure I keep away swelling and I'm on my last day of medicine....woohoo those pills have the worst after taste ever but as long as they keep away infection I'm with it!! I can start wearing bras in another week and take off the rap as well...it's actually kind of refreshing to just wear a sports bra lol I've never done that before...I was told to come back to see the surgeon in 6 weeks but if I have any questions before then I'll just show up there..nipples are sensitive as hell sucks I went through all of this to only realize I wanted to keep my natural boobs but it's all good...I wanted perky boobs so I would like myself naked and so that could wear all types of clothing..but what I realized is that my hang ups on my body wouldn't have changed regardless so that's why I'm reflecting, embracing, and keeping it pushing....

On another note tomorrow is my bday....28 is going to be a great year! Buying my first home in a few months...going on vacation in July to Puerto Rico and to Paris in November....there are good times to be had and I'm about to be living...only thing that suck is that I keep thinking I could have spent that 6,000 on some amazing clothes and shoes lol oh well an expensive lesson

HAPPY HEALING LADIES !

Happy to hear you are doing well and close to being recovered. Happy birthday and it looks like next year will be a fun one for you. Hey It's only money! That's what my dad says when we make a costly mistake. You would not have known until you tried. It will be a distant memory after Puerto Rico and Europe.

Your surgeon did an amazing job and I would have loved to see them at their one year mark. I wish I had them lol.

So happy to hear from you and that things are going so much better. I had drains for another operation and you are right....seriously bothersome. Are you getting boobs structure and skin back to normal? Hoping you did incur much damage. What about scars? In armpits or really visible? Hoping the best for you

My boobs are pretty much back to normal just flat right now cause I had them strapped down for 7 days...but once I start wearing my sports bra I'll be back in no time..I had through the nipples..the scar isn't bad at all barely noticeable cause I have dark areoles....just feel weaker in general....actually lost some weight cause I wasn't eating and stressing for the first week and I haven't be doing any cardio

Can I ask what you paid for local anesticsia however you spell it haha I am loving my breast but one is a bit firmer and more roused out this bc it's 430 filled in a 420 implant and my other 400 in a 420 an it's driving me crazy I want to talk with my doc he told me to wait three months before checking out my size but it is killing me one is more filled out looking not nec bigger but I want to go add more cc to atleast not be under filled

March 20, 2014
I paid 1000...ur breast look the same size to me..and idk if 30ccs will make that much of a difference beyond that you got a more complicated surgery than me so maybe you should wait...idk maybe call and get advice from other ps

March 20, 2014
I just posted a pic and I can def see the diff I think it'll drive crazy it's an under filled saline the other is overfilled so idk I'm def gonna talk to my ps

March 21, 2014
I got a question. Anyone here that's had breast implants notice any improvement in other whitish stretchmarks? Some ways I hear it doesn't take them away, of course, yet fills in some of the stretched skin to make less noticeable. Yet I also don't want to make anything worse so I am not going huge either. Let me hear from you guys and share pics if have any please

March 21, 2014
I have stretch marks due to two pregnancy and in my left breat basically not noticeable my right breast is smaller but I've talked to my ps and will be getting it filled more in two months so it should not be noticeable either but if u don't feel out our skin you will see them still I had a full c and got 430 400 cc modest te saline again my 430 breast looks amazing and skin filled out :) good luck

March 21, 2014
Thanks for letting me know about the stretchmarks. That's what I was thinking is just filling them up enough to fill skin up. Remind me again, did you go over or under? Where are you at? Wondering difference in cost. I am getting quoted $4750 saline $6250 for silicone implants alone. Yet another gal on here paid $4500 for a lift and implants together and she is in Miami. Keep me posted on your progress. I am scheduled with another PS on April 2nd for second opinion and his advice and look at his work

Hi I'm in in Rome ga I got a lift and implants $5110.65 is wax fly what I paid I have saline I was quoted 6100 for lift and silicone but I had enough tissue it didn't matter since I was a full c so and also mine feel real and very soft like real boobs so I don't see how silicone would have been much diff for me

Yeah see the one dr. Suggested saline too. Yet my girlfriend who has had hers for like 20 yrs. because they had to rebuild her breasts from so many cysts and tumors, said her saltines are very heavy and feel like water balloons. I worry about that. I already have some neck issues and wonder about weight pulling on front. I also have lots of natural breasts tissue so I am not worried about cover or rippling. Yet as we age our skin/tissue thins and I hope to not have revision surgery. Another doctor on hear from Houston said the size I was recommended 400-450 cc is large for saline and can leak easier. Geese what to do????

March 22, 2014
Oh the other thing. The lines under nipple going down do you know hoe much they will fade. I haven't had anyone suggest a lift yet but if they do I don't wanna have those lines from incisions. Did you look at other pictures to see how they turn out? I already have stretchmarks and don't wanna add to scarring.

I thought you were fine before the boobies... I'm 5'11 and 180 lbs, I'll never be as toned as you but I don't jiggle.. Yuh know? Lol, but I'm getting the 400 cc moderate profile... But I'm barely a B and I'm all skin, so I'm taking that into consideration...I'm glad I read your blog... It was insightful! Good luck!

Coco thank you for sharing. I am do very happy and glad you are okay and healthy. So sorry you went through all this and hopefully the stress will subside and with any surgery there comes a period afterwards of stress, depression, and anxiety. So dont beat yourself up too hard and be kind to yourself. While I think you look great before implant and now you have removed think you will be great looking again. Yet if you do want implants back just go smaller and air on side of caution. I am looking to get implants now myself. So asking tons if questions myself. My PS suggested 400-450cc due to my size now which is bigger than yours I think. I am a good full C or soft D depending on bra and maker. Yet after my age 44 and three children I have most of my volume towards bottom poke of breasts yet lots of dense breasts tissue. I am perky with my nipple still well above inflammatory fold. So I am looking for a little more cleavage and fullness up top to even out and be more round out. If that sound right. Did you go over or under muscle? Mine is suggesting over muscle because I am physical and active (not to the degree of you tho) he has a patient active like you right now that the breasts deforms when she works out at gym. It just doesn't contract correctly and moves abnormally so she went under and they are trying to decide how to fix her issue but that's one reason he suggests over muscle for me. He is suggesting saline as well. I am having trouble finding women who have gone sub glandular anywhere. Plus, I was wondering you had your implants removed so quickly didn't the PS advise that they hadn't dropped or settled yet into place yet or that at 7 days you were still seeing the hugeness as much being swelling and that you should give some time? I know that massaging them waiting to drop into pocket and allow swelling might have made a diff. Just wondering what your dr. Response to those aspects was

Of course my plastic surgeon was disappointed and wanted me to give my implants time..but after talking to many friends who had them i realized unless the swelling was adding 2 cup sizes to my breast they were just to big for me....after doing more research i decided i originally just wanted to add a cup size or not even that (Rather just fill out my breast)... So i knew i wouldn't be happy with the implants i had in now or ever... I had the dual plane method 2/3 under the muscle and 1/3 over it helps with an internal lift.. I cant guide you in under the muscle or over because I've seen both work in super active women..under is supposed to be more natural looking and silicone vs saline is a personal preference depending on your take on health concerns...who knows i may look back into getting smaller implants later in life but right now I'm in the thick of my career and its hard to get myself the time i need to heal..just don't want to make anymore rushed choices along the way...ive learned I'm sexy regardless cant wait to be back out there dancing and doing what i love

If your already a c or d..then the 450s are going to add on 2 and a half more cup sizes ...it will fill you out because the implant depending on profile could either be wide or slightly smaller... But no doubt you will have big boobs

March 15, 2014
Thanks so much. I am still really looking and sizing things up from all aspects. My PS suggested 400-450 depending on once in there. Starting at 400 of course. Yet with my already larger size breast that's what I think the more cc to keep uniform with size but fill in upper portion. I am wondering a lot about sub glandular to sub muscle. As my concern of detachment of muscles to place implant and that not being able to grow back or regatta hand then the complications from muscle loss

Check out my sub glandular 225cc. Love them. Doesn't interfere with running and filled up my breasts that were sagging. Recovery was perfect. Love my new lil D's!!
