They are a little softer but still have a long way to go... my scars look better and better each day, one of them is higher on the breast than the other but I'm told it's normal and doesn't really matter that much as long as everything else appears good. I Continue to wear the surgical bra to bed because they are very heavy and still a little sore. I don't really go bra less at all. I want them to feel 100% before I do that. Overall I really am starting to love them. They look great in bras and cute tops which is a first for me. I'm enjoying the confidence :)

6 weeks PO
So, I'm 6 weeks post op. They still feel very foreign... although they are finally feeling a little softer, the skin is still pretty tight. I've started doing light cardio and they have dropped a little. The silicone scar sheets are great! I can't find the right bra anywhere... im not aloud to wear under wire or push up bras for the first year so I have no clue where to ship because VS doesn't have much of a selection for wireless bras with no extra padding so... im open for suggestions. I'm starting to like them more and more.

I haven't had my surgery yet, but have you tried a lululemon sports bra? That's all I wear now so that's what I plan on wearing after.

one month PO boobie blues
I'm two days away from being one month PO and I'm having such intense boobie blues (depression) I know I'm still healing but it's been too long since I've gone to the gym, I'm packing on the lbs, I'm tired all the time and I hate looking at my scars... I just feel like I was chopped up when I look in the mirror. I know this is just in my head but I can't shake it... and my breast have bairly dropped and they are still pretty stiff, the skin feels so tight.. they just feel like two foreign objects sticking out of my chest at this stage. I just can't wait to be further along in this healing process. So, my intentions in writing this update is not to sound like a baby but to inform whom ever is reading and going through the same that it's normal to feel depressed and regretful at this stage, it'll pass. I've read so many reviews from women that have felt the exact same way. :)

Yep, it is so normal to feel depressed and regretful. I felt the same way. I am now 3-months and so very happy. I still have a ways to go with the healing process, but I will get there and it will all be worth the wait. Your breasts actually look great. Your doctor did an awesome job on the mastopexy! You should feel blessed it turned out as good as it did. Your breasts will drop, don't worry. Dropping can take 2-3 months, sometimes longer. You'll also soften nicely and feel more relaxed. Just keep in mind and please know that good things are yet to come! You'll be going through a lot of changes in the next few months. Your scars will fade in time. The fading is going to take longer, but you'll get there ... Happy healing...xoxo

What I meant by 'feeling more relaxed' --- your skin will stretch from the implants and you will no longer feel tight. Takes a little time, but you'll be there fairly quick. Again, happy healing, try to be patient, and keep your mind on things other than your boobs. :-)

Sorry you have the blues. I want mines to look like yours I think they came out nice. What did dr say about the raised incision ?

Thank you! He said it should flatten out over time, especially with using silicone scar sheets. I just got them & started using then :)
