- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

5 months post!
Omg, it's been so long since I updated... The thing is, my breasts feel like such a part of me now that I don't really think of them as being implants so much anymore.
I still have a while to go as far as looking more natural; I feel like in the beginning of my recovery I was changing so much so quickly, and now progress seems to have slowed down so much. I have to keep reminding myself that I'm still only 5 months out and I need to give myself another 7 before I see how things will settle.
I'm still getting used to the fact that my scoliosis will make my breasts look uneven no matter what. For some reason the asymmetry looks way crazier in photos than in person: this photo makes it seem like one implant is a completely different shape than the other, but obviously it isn't - the light is just playing funky tricks.
They feel much squishier than they did before, and after they've been massaged or played with they get even softer and more natural-feeling. I'm still fighting against my body's natural tightness and I still think my tissues will always be just barely too tight for my implants to ever feel real, but that's okay. Sometimes also when I'm stretching or reaching up with no shirt on my implants stick out A LOT as being implants - the half-basketball look - but I knew this going in, considering my low body fat, and the majority of the time they look fine so I'm not too worried about the few times they don't.
Overall: still SO happy I did this for myself. I'm cosplaying as Catwoman in a few weeks and I'm so excited to be able to fill out my bodysuit with no assistance :)

So I'm a 28DD now
Or at least I will be once the girlfriends drop a little more! (28DD has the same cup volume as a 30D/32C.)
I bought a Cleo by Panache bra from HerRoom.com because I paid way too much money to be sitting around in the wrong size bra, and online is the only place I can find 28 band bras. For everyday I'll probably stick to my soft bras, but sometimes duty calls for a "real" bra and I wanted to be prepared since there's a lot more happening on my chest now than before, and I can't just use pasties and boob tape and call it a day anymore (not that I'm complaining!). This one is a basic t-shirt bra style and I'm glad it isn't too full-coverage, since most DD+ bras seem to be cut super full, which I'm not too crazy about.
The bra fits okay, although there's he tiniest bit of gapping at the top but once my breasts drop more I'm sure they'll fit in the cup much better and the weight will pull the top of the cup flush to my skin. I can get rid of the gapping now by tightening the straps a little though. I just can't believe my boobs fill this thing out - I took it out of the box, saw the size of the cups, and was like hell no, I'll never fill those things up... but I do!
It will take some getting used to though, since I so rarely wore real bras pre-BA and never got used to the feeling of underwires and whatnot.

Sports bras for small frame?
Any fellow petite-build ladies having luck finding sports bras that fit properly after BA? My ribcage is so small that I need XXS/XS in order to have a properly supportive band, but obviously the girlfriends get so squashed that I need S but then the band starts sliding around and gives absolutely no support.
I bought a couple low-impact bras for hiking and yoga in size S but my breasts won't be moving around too much during those activities so I'm not concerned. Once I get the all-clear from my surgeon, though, I'll be getting back into HIIT, which involves a LOT more bouncing around and I'll definitely need to strap myself down a little better.

Provider Review
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
50 N. La Cienega, Beverly Hills, California
I could not have asked for a better surgeon! Dr. Khosravi is attentive and clearly very knowledgeable, yet gentle and personable. My procedure went perfectly and the healing process was about as painless (physically and emotionally) as possible. From the moment I met him in consultation to the time I spent with him in post-op check-ups, I completely trusted Dr. K and knew he would do the right thing for me. His office staffers Lizeth and Crystal are friendly as well, and they are always more than happy to answer any questions. I will highly recommend Dr. K to any and all of my friends seeking procedures, even the ones who want something other than breast augmentation, because I trust his expertise and artistic vision so much!
