They just bother me so much!! I have been thinking about getting a tattoo to cover them if I'm still unhappy with them at my year mark. Good luck on your surgery! You don't regret it!

Y'all are too much!! The pictures do way more justice than deserved! I just hate we all went through this! It has honestly been the most traumatizing thing I've been through in all of the 24 years of my life. On the bright side....Guess that means I'm lucky....!

frowny faces on your scars? I don't know...they look great. But- I've heard coconut oil works; also something like Mederma cream..and time.

Why is there muscle distortion ? Won't the muscle heal back to the normal place? I wasn't aware of this.

I think you look wonderful! If I could look like that, I would do the same thing. Once the rest of the pinkness fades, you will look like new again!

Wow I just read your whole story and can relate to everything that you have said. I kinda feel a bit better now. Im 26, have had my mentor 475cc saline under the muscle since 2010. I have grown to not like them more and more as time has gone on. Had a consult for removal on Jan 10 and scheduled for explant on feb 3rd. Im getting cold feet though. im scared that I will be deformed looking. Before BA I was barely a 34A. So im afraid of what I will look like after having stretched out my skin so much. I am a thinner type person. 5'4/5'5ish about 120 lbs. But if my results look even half as good as yours I will be happy. Your boobs turned out amazing. Really.

You look amazing. Really. You have the kind of breasts I always wished I had. I'm not sure why you're still thinking about fat grafting??? That is crazy, sorry :) It sounds like you have the ideal body type. Please enjoy it while you have it. I wish l hasn't wasted my 20's obsessing about minor imperfections.

Final update... For now!

I can finally say, 4 months later: I no longer suffer from intense anxiety! Woo! I do sometimes still feel regret over my breast augmentation- especially because of the visual reminder of my incision scars. They are looking much better than before, but still bother me some days. I'm mainly bothered that they are above my crease- ugh. Anyway, I think things are about 85% back to normal for me.
I can say with confidence that removing my implants was one of the hardest things I've done but I am so relieved that I had the courage to go through with it. I am much more comfortable and at peace with those silicone bags out of my body! And even though I love being in my natural skin, I would be lying if the idea of fat transfer breast augmentation doesn't still linger in the back of my mind, lol. Call me crazy, but it's true. I doubt I will ever (have the money) to go through with it, though.
If I can say one thing it's that I want all women to love themselves. Think twice, triple, quadruple before going through with plastic surgery. Love yourself for who you are. You are all beautiful! Know it, believe it, live it. Don't fall into the pressure of society or media values. Stay strong and true to yourself! Trust me, I was the worlds worst about indulging in self-hate and self-criticism. I became obsessed over what others viewed as an "ideal" woman, physically. I was sick! And I realize that now. Looks really don't matter when if comes to what's on the inside. I know it sounds cliche, and much easier said than done, but I finally understand what so many people have tried to tell me for years now. That is: confidence is the sexiest quality a woman can have. Be confident! Work out, start yoga, drink tea, learn to dance, start violin lessons. Anything that will take your mind off of your boobs and on something that is much more worth your money and your time!
Thanks again to you ladies for all of your support and love through one of the roughest times of my life!

I'm overjoyed to hear this girl! I was wondering how you were. Soooo happy for you. Remember everyone is worried about their own insecurities. They are probably just hoping to be accepted, not judging you're "flaws" the trick is to own it. You have to train people on how to see the situation or scars. Do it with a smile on your face. I'm glad you are back to your cheerful self. Don't do fat grafting. If it left you dimpled up I think you would stroke out haha. Much love :)

Amen. I am so glad you made peace with your body. May you always be filled with His peace. I suffered the same issues (anxiety, depression, self acceptance) 1 Peter 3:4 3) Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. 4) Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.
