I haven't posted in a while because honestly I'm not as satisfied as I had hoped to be. I'm trying to be positive because I hated my boobs before and I love that I feel better about myself now, but I still get a little bummed out over some things:
I had 475cc and 550cc placed to correct my asymmetry. My PS said he would under-correct, rather than over-correct. He definitely over-corrected. My right boob which was smaller before is now noticeably bigger AND the crease is lower than the left when it used to be higher... I think the pocket was a little over-dissected. I'm paranoid that I'm going to bottom-out in the future because I don't remember the crease being as low as it is now, or maybe I'm just paranoid and fixated on it. The incisions are a good way to measure because they were perfectly in the crease after surgery and now they're maybe a cm higher than the crease which suggests that the implants are in fact migrating. Another thing I hate is that there is an indentation on the right breast (all of my problems are with righty) which appears to be where the breast tissue meets the implant. I thought this might blend over time and get better but it's not going away at all. It's not terribly noticeable but in dimmer lighting, it creates a pretty noticeable shadow. The shape at the creases was pretty odd looking after surgery and it's certainly rounded out more, but I'm just worried that the right one especially is going to keep dropping. I'll try to post better pictures later (I delete all the pics that don't mask the problems well, but I will try to save a few in the future), but at certain angles, it looks like I have way too much volume in the base of the breast, with a lot less upper pole cleavage except when I wear a pushup bra. Lastly, I don't like that my nipples are so much bigger now and I have ugly veins that show, that I never had before. That last bit was, of course, expected and is simply my body's reaction to being stretched, but I still don't like it. Compounded with the previous issues, I'm just not that thrilled with my result... still happy to have boobs, but a little bummed out they aren't as great as I thought they would be.
I may try sclerotherapy within the next few months to try and get rid of the ugly areola veins. I'm not sure what to do about the rest. I don't want to put too much money into my breasts right now when I haven't even had kids yet. If I do bottom out in the future, that's going to really bother me and I'll want to fix it. If they stay as they are, then I plan to live with them, have kids within the next few years, and then prob have a revision to reverse the anticipated damage of children and correct any deficiencies at that time.

Full body pics
Pics were requested that show how this size looks on my frame so here they are for anyone interested. I didn't post before because I have identifying tattoos and I really want to be 100% anonymous... sorry for the stickers to cover up. Though I think my boobs look in proportion, looking at these pics actually makes me wish I'd gone bigger... like 650 lol... but I'm a little thick right now so I guess when I get my body trimmed down again they'll look bigger.

NP, thanks! Good luck! ;)

Thank you so much! You're an angel D: they look so beautifully proportionate. I think I can handle 475's, I hope! They look a littl busty from the side tho.... I'm so nervous about the size I picked!!!

January 25, 2016
No problem! ;) They're a really easy size to downplay. You'd be surprised how small this size could look under clothes if you want them to.

January 25, 2016
Oh my gosh I hope you're right!!! They're not returning my calls, and the Vectra system was updated the day before I went in so they're having trouble giving me my images. Yikes. So I'm super scared of the 475's. I guess I don't want to look top-heavy. Do you ever feel like that?. The projection is pretty eye-catching.

January 25, 2016
No, I really don't feel top heavy. They look their biggest when I'm naked, in which case my BF is the only person who sees them and he loves them. I will try to get some pics up of how they look in clothes to show you how they look the rest of the time. Even though it was a significant difference, a lot of my friends haven't even noticed because they only see me with clothes on, in which case it's not as obvious, especially when I used to wear padded pushup bras and now I can wear simple demis.

Oh my gosh you're kidding! Ok! I appreciate this so much, you have no idea. Surgery is in 5 days for me!

"Drop and Fluff"
This phrase, which I didn't understand before, finally makes sense. I think they've dropped and fluffed beautifully so I hope they stay like this and don't change much more!
