One More Thing!

WORTH IT$5,000
It might sound hard to believe, but even in just the past two months I've noticed my right implant settling a bit lower. The fullness in the upper pole has finally shifted to the lower pole. I'm really glad about that because it looks more natural. It's just kind of amazing that it finally happened nearly two full years after the surgery. So, yes! They keep changing as time goes on.

Two Years Post-Op
SadieStDecember 5, 2018
I just had my two year check up with Dr. Gupta. Great guy! I highly recommend him.
I tried to post pictures taken today, but my computer's giving me trouble.
Overall, I'm happy with my decision to have a BA. Hindsight is 20/20, however, and if I had it to do all over again, I would definitely go with a smaller size. They look great and well proportioned with the rest of my shape, but there are two main reasons I wish I'd opted for 250s instead of 300s: 1) They're quite big and it's hard to keep that from being obvious unless I want to really enshroud myself, which I don't! There are lots of clothes I can't wear because if they're snug, I look quite show-offy (which just isn't my personality, nor my goal) and if they're baggy then I look dumpy. 2) I can't sleep on my side very comfortably, nor can I cross my arms easily.
My goal in having a BA was to reinflate the girls so they wouldn't look like stretched out balloons. That could have easily been remedied had I gone with a smaller size. Oh well! I'm still very glad I did it. But if anyone is reading this, wondering if you'll wish you'd gone smaller, keep in mind that some of us wish he had. Every time I mention wishing they were smaller, my husband shouts, "Heresy!" Haha. He's quite pleased with the results.
At my recent appointment, Dr. Gupta was looking at them and declared that in a few years I might want him to do a lift. I didn't bother contradicting him aloud, but internally I was thinking, "I doubt it! They already look way younger than the rest of my body, so I can't imagine being fifty years old and requesting that my boobs be surgically altered so they look even perkier." That would be seriously in-congruent.
With all that said, I'll end with encouraging you all to carefully choose your surgeon because s/he can do a great job or really cause you anguish and suffering.

Mammogram, Oh Mammogram
SadieStAugust 5, 2017
Hey, there. I just had my first mammogram at 7 months post-op. It went well. The tech knew I had implants and did a great job pulling all of my natural tissue forward without squashing the implants. Anyway, don't neglect to have an important, possibly life-saving procedure done just because you're scared your implants are going to rupture. Pick your radiology department based on having techs who know how to deal with implants and go get squished today. :)
