Almost six weeks....

My second postop appointment is in a few days. Can’t wait to wear a normal bra, instead of a Victoria Secret’s Knockout Bra! I have adjusted so completely to these breasts I have almost forgotten about what they used to look like. Every time I take off my bra I worry a tiny bit about some complication- capsular contraction or rotation, since I have the teardrop shaped ones— and am relieved to see they are still holding up. I went through this stage of boob envy and am okay with the small size now (only had 215/245 cc).
For those of you with tuberous breasts considering surgery: go for teardrop shaped; they are so natural and work well to fill out volume in the lower pole. I’d advise anyone getting a BA to choose form-stable implants, since the risk of complications is low and if they rupture, the silicone does not leave the shell.
In clothes I don’t look much different than I did before surgery, since I always wore a thickly padded push-up bra. Naked, of course, it’s a different story. I am the only person to see me naked, until the love gods decide to stop playing jokes on me, so it hasn’t made a dramatic difference in my life. It has removed a lifelong barrier to sexual confidence, but I’m still not the carefree and vivacious person I expected to be once I had “normal” breasts. We don’t just shed our self-perceptions once we change our bodies. Yet fixing the outer has freed me to work on the inner; I can’t blame my breasts anymore for holding me back.

Do they feel soft?? I would like to get this type of implant?
They have gotten softer, but they are not soft; they are firm. I’m okay with that. Presurgery I had very dense breasts. I wish I couldn’t feel the implant when I touch the sides but I didn’t have much breast fat to begin with. So if I touch the upper pole they feel natural (that’s where my fat was before surgery), but if I touch the sides they feel like implants.
You look amazing!! Especially the areola incision, it is healing beautifully!!
Looks amazing!
How have you been??

Ten days postop

Although I’m happy with the results, I am experiencing boob envy which is odd since I’ve always thought it would be enough for me to have the shape corrected. They are still very firm to the touch and can feel the edge of the implant; since they are textured form-stable gummy bear implants, they will take months to soften. Recovery wise, things have been very smooth. I forget I have implants most of the time.
