A year and two months post-exchange to HP, loving my girls!

Hello beautiful, sweet friends. I feel so badly I have not been following anyone's journeys for months now...I have a child who is dealing with a very scary issue, so that has trumped everything. I finally logged on just now and was a med and delighted to see some updates from some of my friends;-)
I am also thrilled to say that after fastidiously "training" my breasts with two bras, 24/7, for almost a year, post exchange, per LynnCC'S wise advice..I now sleep in one bra most nights and in nothing when I am with my guy...And they have settled beautifully into a nice shape, still very perky, with a perfect gap between...no symmastia like I was worried about after the small muscle release... (I jerry-rigged a thong bra system under a sports bra which I wore for months and thimk that it helped actually.) Dr.
Vath is beyond talented. I love their shape and size and the cleavage I now have... I also have to say that although I have missed all you guys..taking a long break from this site has helped me no obsess..and magically, they have settled into their final selves...and it's almost as if I have been rewarded for going easy on myself...My nipples are delightfully sensitive, but not overly so..the rippling is TOTALLY gone, without having gained weight, and they are super squishy AND still look exactly the same projection wise.
I hope you all are feeling happy and beautiful as you should! Happy 4th!

Have been AWOL..missing you guys!!

So sorry...I have moved and been dealing with an illness in my immediate family, so have been totally underwater, but cannot wait to catch up on my (239!!) humongous newsfeed...The great news is that SO MUCH HAS CHANGED FOR SO many of you, it tickles me! I am two weeks away from the implant exchange I had in May after my February lift. Wearing regular bras to work every day and two sports bras at night still. My breasts have, for the most part, settled into their final result, I believe. I love how soft they are..the one thing that has changed since they said have settled..is that the right breast looks slight square which is caused by seeing the little corner edge of my right implant ...not sure anyone notices but me. I can also REALLY feel the bottom edges of both..little self conscious with a new lover, but he doesn't seem to notice.;-) thanks to LynnCC, my breasts have neither fallen, NOT grown closer together Here are a few pics from this week. Muah to all of you and love seeing all your beautiful boobies. Happy Spring!

13 months post lift update, 6 months post muscle release

Hello ladies... ;-) Happy Springs Solstice!!
I am sorry I have only briefly commented on so many of your reviews lately..have been very busy and dealing with family stuff.
I am following everyone's stories though and catch up in doses. :-))
Just wanted to say that I am finally wearing ONE bra much of the time and feel safe doing so now that my breasts has gotten past the 6 month post (last surgery) capsule healing mark...the lift is holding up beautifuly.. Thank you doctor Vath! I still wear two bras to bed every night and about two days a week...(was worried that they would grow too close together into symmastia for a while afyer muscle release,) so started jerry rigging that thong bra under a sports bra method...
I still look terrible in a push up bras because it changes their shape too much and they get squeezed too one together which scares me..when I lean over they fall together but when I lean back or low down they fall more to the sides like natural breasts so feeling safe they are well contained in their capsules...and pockets. (And I am too big for a push up bras anyway.;-)
Here are a few new pics..and the absolute most fave bra I have ever had! I was having issues with the 32DDD I had, because my breasts were moving around still. .and voila, I got release red and my band is actually a 30!! Made so much sense. Of course I had to go up by a letter because the sister size to a 32 triple D is a 30 quadruple D...
I also happy to report that 13 months post lift I have full sensation in both breasts and awesome nipple contraction and full sensation in nipples as well. Sheesh! It certainly took long enough, but for those of you ladies to worry about sensation coming back, just know it takes a long time for nerves to grow back
Anyway the attached picture is the first ever 30DDDD bra I have worn and it fits like a glove!
I hope you all are doing awesome and feeling great about yourselves and enjoying the beginning of Spring Time!

Dr. Vath is an artist. (Not an overstatement.) At the last minute, I chose to also get a full mastoplexy, in addition to just an implant exchange, in my revision. (I cringe to think of how disappointed I would have been if I just had gone bigger, and still had breasts that were shaped like my "befores.") He was absolutely correct in pointing out that a "beautifully shaped breast with scars is much more attractive" than bigger breasts that are still mishapen. He completely changed the shape of my breasts with a mastoplexy! (I cannot even believe the difference myself!) Best decision I ever made was to trust him in that one. (His incisions are thread-thin and end up almost invisible anyway, by the way. I am four months post-op from the mastoplexy, and from 6 inches away, you can barely see the scars around my areola!) Dr. Vath is super down-to-earth, personable, AND talented at his craft- a triple-whammy combo in a surgeon. His bedside manner matches his technique. He is neither pushy, nor is he completely unopinionated, which I appreciate. He is confident and answers questions honestly- about both what he CAN do, given each individual's unique set of factors (tissue quality, history of breast feeding, age, breast-width, etc.) and also honest about what he CANNOT do. That communication style doesn't allow you to have unrealistic expectations. I appreciated that forthrightness and integrity. The experiences I have had with him have also truly felt like a TEAM effort. His staff is readily responsive and always empathic, kind and understanding of any concerns. They answer questions without making you feel silly. They provide you with a nurse hotline number which you can text or call anytime. Dr. Vath himself also said, verbatim, he will "bend over backwards" to make his patients happy with their results..and he HAS! He has surrounded himself with a staff that provides that same caliber interest in complete patient care. Their offices (The Center for Cosmetic Surgery) are gorgeous and relaxing, and the surgical center itself is in their own offices, so you get a private recovery room and the surgical staff is theirs only. (That is very important, as they all know and trust each other and there are no surprises.) I am so grateful to have found this incredible surgeon and practice!
