I can't believe its been 6 months! They feel real and have dropped slightly more down and to sides. Slight numbness feeling still on lateral/bottom portion of breasts. I wear a sports bra that pushed them up and together 2-3 hrs a day while I work out, a normal bra during day and usually go braless or Cami top at night. Wondering if I should ALWAYS wear support at night??

Things are great, I especially love having boobs while I work out...but...I gotta admit it has been a little bit of an adjustment. I find myself minimizing more that touting them. Not cause I'm ashamed at all, I think I just need to keep getting used to how my clothes fit, and the overall new look, etc.

I'd love to hear your comments!!

WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE - Best PS in MN 20 Jun 2014 1 day post Dr. Tholen and his staff were amazing from start to finish. After setting up my consult, I quickly researched their website and was blown away by Dr. Tholen's credentials and experience. And the before/after pictures say it all. His office sent me his "Essentials of Breast Augmentation" (affectionately referred to as "the book") which I read through in its entirety. Dr. Tholen has been doing this for 27 years and knows his stuff - he has seen it all and then some. And, he adds his own anecdotal tidbits of information - correlations between your cycle and how breast tissue responds, for example. Just signs of a good doctor! At the consult, everyone in the office was amazing. Talking us through everything, history, any questions we have and sizing the implants as well. They just put us at ease. This is a big decision and no matter who you are, you are nervous in that room! Dr. Tholen came in and talked to us for over an hour about the procedure, history, what he believes is best in general and best for me. We left and I booked my operation for 3 weeks later. The day of the procedure we were greeted with smiles by everyone and, as Dr. Tholen was running late do to weather delays (backing up other patients), we got to talk through post-op information and life with his wife and recovery nurse, Sami. She is a GEM. Your caring mom or aunt or best friend's mom! I wish I could take her with me in my back pocket! I would HIGHLY recommend Mpls Plastic Surgery and Dr. Tholen. In fact, I already have to many of my friends!

Thank you for sharing your journey. I have a similar body type as you. Your results look great! What is your experience now that you have had them for awhile? Are they comfortable, did you continuously wear support at night? Thank you!

More dropping and rounding since 6 weeks. Numbness is greatly reduced and is just a little bit on the bottom and lateral portion of the breast. Still some "tenderness" on the lateral bottom portion - especially in the right one. Incisions healing awesome. I am using Scar Gel and Scar Strips (just from Target) 12 hours per day.

Looking good!
Thank you so much!!
First of all- you look great!! I am having my surgery with Dr Tholen next week and I was wondering what supplements/ herbs you took to help decrease inflammation and promote healing.. Thanks Beth
Hi Beth! Good for you! You will love him (probably already do as you scheduled your surgery) and his team. Just keeping a really good diet. I avoid gluten, soy, peanuts, dairy. No "herbs" but good vitamins, including Omega 3 fatty acids, Coconut oil (anti-inflammatory), mangos, berries, leafy green vegis such as kale, spinach and brussel sprouts. Hope that helps! Good luck! So exciting!!! :)

12 weeks! Loving them

I cannot believe it has been 12 weeks! I've forgotten to update! Everything is great! They are feeling like mine. No pain and numb feeling is basically gone! Push-ups still feeling weird. I do a lot of jumping in my workout classes and need to remember to wear a very supportive bra. If not, I get some achy feelings in my right breast. I get compliments daily...everyone asks who my doctor is!!
