8 Weeks post 2nd Revision

I'm really happy with my breast. Sometimes I look in the mirror and think that they could be a bit bigger. I get a reality check every time I take a photo or try on a bra. They look huge then. I'm still swollen from my tummy tuck and lipo mind you. I'm very curious to see what the overall look will be after my waist and tummy are completely flat and narrowed. I'm vigilant about scar treatment. I make my own paste and I don't have much of a scar at all. I don't know how he did the revision with little to no scar this time. I wear a variety of sports bras with bands under. I'm in no rush to wear a real bra. Spring hasn't even sprung! I am bikini shopping though. Several of my old ones no longer fit.
Today I'm;
5/7, 126 pounds, 30G bra or 32DDD

I don't feel an ounce of discomfort as far as my breast are concerned. Never ever would've picked 600+ cc for my breast but it works and I'm soo thankful that my doctor gave me what I needed to achieve the look that I wanted painlessly.

Finally!

So I ended up with 660/700 cc saline. I love them so far! I don't feel a thing either. No pain. I wonder if they are under the muscle. I hope so! But there is absolutely no pain or discomfort. Could be because the TT is taking front stage. Oye the pain! It's soo uncomfortable and I've got some burning on my right side at the drain entry.
TMI but it's going on day 5 and still no BM. I've been taking senna daily and nothing! Of course I'm swollen and I'm guessing 11 pounds heavier.

Dr. Ortega was a very cool doc. Personable is a good word to describe him. Few tattoos even. 5 weeks later I can see his work starting to take form. While I'm not overjoyed with the size, his handy work is pretty awesome. My breast are smaller than what I'd love but they are beautiful. The scars are barely visable and this was a full lift. Very good job! CG cosmetics.... Well they are very fast and busy. No frills. To date, no one has followed up with me. I was in/out and long forgotten. While there things moved quickly. My coordinator Tatiana, wasn't there for my pre-op and I'm not sure she was there the day of my surgery. Again no follow up. Not sure if I'd utilize them again and I'm currently planning on getting more body enhancement. I didn't like the building at all but the staff was nice. There was a nurse Palma I think. She was soo sweet and funny. As an out of state patient, I hated giving my cc over the phone to God knows who on the other end. All providers should have a way for a patient to pay securely on line or in person. This place wanted all of the money BEFORE the pre op! I had to pay over the phone 2 weeks prior to surgery!
