Lost 50lbs, It Was Time to Feel Good About Myself - Louisville, KY

I've always been insecure about my small, unattractive breasts. They were conical in shape with very little tissue at the bottom. After gaining and losing weight, they had become even sadder than in my youth. I had worked so hard to lose the extra weight, I wanted my entire body to finally live up to the confidence I feel inside. Turning 40 later in the year, I said "why not?" I'm going to do this for me.

Pre-Surgery: I am not super slim. 5'6, 160lbs but I am in great shape. I work out 5 days a week. I have about 24-25% body fat and am pear shaped. I followed all the "week before" directions to the letter.

Post-Surgery: Again, I followed EVERY SINGLE DIRECTION my doctor told me--massage, elevated sleeping, sports bras, etc. I asked for clarification and even set timers for medication. Dr. Mizuguchi said this is definitely a big reason why my results look so amazing. I did not have an easy case since I had small breasts and my skin had a lot of stretching to do. Follow the directions!!! Call with questions!!!!

The Bad Parts: My Implants stayed high for a while! It took mine longer to "drop" because my chest muscles did not want to make room--remember when I said I'm in great shape? Turns out, I super strong. Ha! Like freakish! Also, muscle relaxers don't work for me. This made the first 3-4 weeks pretty uncomfortable for me. I felt like I had a band around my chest. When my implants finally started to make their way into the "pockets," they look FABULOUS!!! They are exactly what I wanted in size, shape, placement, etc.

Because of my body type and size, I wanted breasts that would balance out my body but not make me look heavy or fat. That is exactly what I got. My incisions are around the nipple with minimal scarring. Its been 6 month and those are still fading. I will post pictures at 1 year post surgery.
