Hi ladies!!! Ill be traveling to get my procedure...
$5,000
Hi ladies!!! Ill be traveling to get my procedure done from Tampa Fl to Miami Fl, my consult is on August 15th and August 16th will be surgery date. I'm so excited, anxious, desperate, etc! Anyway so far the plans are to get a Benelli lift with Saline implants however if the doctor feels a "lollipop" cut needs to be done instead of a "donut" cut then ill go for it although I'm highly nervous about having all kind of cuts and scars but whatever will give me long term results! I also purchased this silicone sheet by biodermis (epi-derm) it has been recommended to me by the office and I've read lots of good things it was pretty expensive (the only down fall) but hopefully it's worth every penny!! This is it for now..I will keep you all posted!!!

Thank you for starting your journey on RealSelf! Will anyone be joining you on your trip to help you the first few days of recovery? Have you or your PS discussed approximately how many cc's you might be interested in? Here is a quick video on how to make your own rice sizers at home. Looking forward to your updates!

Hi ladies I have a question..after breast lift / augmentation, when did you start working out? I've been working out like crazy worried that I won't be able to for a long time after breast lift / aug.

My doctor won't let me even walk the neighborhood for a week. In a week I will start walking and move to more lower body exercises and slowly build up again as I'm comfortable. In the beginning I think it will be challenging to know where your limits are. Doc said I should be able to get back to a normal routine (including abs and arms) in 3 months.
A friend of mine didn't try to get back to working out soon enough after her surgery and now 2 years later she is having a hard time doing push ups and sit ups. She wishes she had started stretching and getting more exercises in early on. I recommend you do what you can as your doctor releases you for exercise. I ride horses so I'm ready to get back in the saddle as soon as possible ;)

I didnt get a lift but I was told abt 2-3 weeks, but to be on the safe side I'm going to TRY to wait a month before I go back to the gym.

I was told no working out for 6 weeks. :-/ I went to the gym 4-5x a week, so this is going to be hard. I'm a few days post op and I know there's no way I'd be able to work out now, but I'm sure that'll change in a few weeks.

The only working out I've been cleared for so far is walking, but I'm only 3 weeks post-op. The past week I have barely even done that because I've been in a bit of a funk. I worked out a ton pre-op, so I'm REALLY looking forward to getting back into my routine! I've put on a few lbs and have been feeling blaaa! I'm ready to kick my butt back into shape!!! :-)

It is almost 4 weeks went to gym w trainer and did legs only. I used a arms a tiny bit. I wore an old push up bra to work and double padded sports bra and shelf . I think I may have slightly pulled something or just am sore. Assume it will go away. I am doing special arm exercises for some scar tissue under my arm 3 x a day in addition to 3x massage. Still happy but wondering if I went too small 114 5 5 used to be 34 a now c w 240 cvs.

Today is 4 months post surgery
. My breasts have fallen so that upper pole is no longer there
And ad such I am smaller than I was I noticed this as we went on vacation this weekend to Florida and I wore my bikini and I noticed in pix and in looks how much smaller I am. I am going to have revision surgery in Jan.my advice every thing takes longer than you think and going larger is better and I did not.

Really? Wow thank you for the advice I'll make sure to bring that up to my ps (going larger).
