I took some photos about a month back near my 6 month mark. Boy does time fly! After this revision I just wanted to wipe my hands clean of all the stress and so I've taken a step back from realself in the process. I'm in a much better place now and very happy with my results. I have my moments where I second guess why I ever even did all this but then again if I hadn't gotten surgery I would've been wondering what if.

The highly cohesive implants are definitely not my first preference in terms of how they handle but it's also not nearly as bad as I thought they would be. Yes, they are firmer than the regular silicone gels however the firmness isn't such a huge difference that it even bothers me in the least. If anything I feel it makes them seem more perky. The only thing I mind is the cohesiveness really. It's very hard to describe in words but in my opinion they are more cohesive than a normal breast would be, at least at my age. A young and perky breast maybe. Because of the cohesiveness they aren't quite as moldable and displaceable. They don't fit seamlessly i to a pushup bra however when I do wear them they look HUGE! In terms of cleavage you can def have them with gummy bears however a normal top that might push the girls in towards each other may not do the trick anymore. They need a little extra push so I use those silicone sticky bra chicken cutlets and clip it together and va va voom. And it does seem to get better with time as they continue to soften for up to 2 years.

I work out regularly and love it. I choose not to work out my chest due to some conclusions I've made in researching. In my opinion this puts some wear and tear on the implants and can sometimes give a wide-chest look. Just my opinion though. It is totally safe to work your pecs! Also, nobody really notices that they're fake. People are always surprised when I tell them. People I've been friends with for years found out recently and had no clue. I wear a 32D pretty comfortably in most brands and 34C is good too on the closest clasp. While my first set of implants had qualities I liked a bit better I am very happy with my new set and them being positioned and staying that way makes them look all the more happy and beautiful!! I'll post some more photos and updates soon!!

Hey Hey Pretty. Long time....Happy to see they staying put and looking amazing. :) Yaaaaaaayyy!!! I know it was a long road....and reading your last post, I have to say I can agree with you. I love my boobs, most days...but truthfully, if I knew then what I know now....I probably wouldn't have gone through with getting breast implants either. Weird to think that way....because for soooooo many years I was obsessed with getting them done.....and after having them.....I kinda wish I had my little real boobs back. 100% Natural. I don't think my implants will ever feel 100% mine....As a person who stays pretty lean and workouts and is always active.....I just notice them more than the normal person, I guess. Luckily, I haven't had any real complications.....but even so, just having silicone inside me bothers me sometimes. Weird, because I chose to do this myself.... Live and learn, I suppose. Sending you all good vibes, always my friend. xoxo

Yes!! I am happily on the other side! I don't necessarily have regrets at all because I would be still wishing for boobies right now if I had never done this. I guess sometimes the grass is always greener. They look fantastic though and I do admit that it has superficially boosted my confidence a lot. I feel so much more confident in my own skin. And my boyfriend is always turned on by them haha. So def no regrets! Just wish I knew then what I know now. Anyways thanks for checking in love!! Hope all is well xoxo

Hi Lunamarie I've had mine for 8 months now and recently noticed they have softened so you're right they do take time to soften. I'm totally in love with mine now patience is the key x

Yes lots of patience!! I read someone else's review recently and they mentioned after 2 years they were sooo much more soft. I know my left side is far behind my right. So I'm sure they will continue to settle in as time goes by. As of right now they don't seem too firm for me at all. I will admit they are firmer than the regular silicone implants but not so firm that they seem unnatural or anything. I love that they look natural! I think I chose a good size to stay looking fairly modest. I will continue to check in here and there with some updates :)

I just came across your review and I have to say you are really amazing and brave for going through all this!! One surgery is enough for anyone, I couldn't imagine how you felt about the revision surgeries. I wish your review popped up sooner because I have gummies, and I do absolutely love them!! I am two and a half years out and definitely like them much better than the first year in. Congratulations on your new boobilicousness!!! You are truly remarkable in your positive outlook!! I can't wait to see you and your boobies in the months ahead!!

Awww you are too sweet!!! I still haven't hit the one year mark myself but I totally I can feel the difference from when I had surgery. Im totally in live with them as is and of they get softer with time even better. Some reviews I read just really made it seem like gummy bear implants were so hard and firm and yes while they are slightly firmer than regular silicone they still feel natural and I can get cleavage as others say is impossible. I think the problem might be that people aren't giving it enough time before they judge. I'm glad I made the plunge with the gummy bears. They seem safer and more reliable and will last me much longer than what I had before. Thanks so much for your kind words and feedback! Much appreciated!!

Out of curiosity....do the textured implants feel any different internally? I think you mentioned they felt the same externally....but of course...now that you've had both smooth and textured....I'd love to know what the biggest differences are.

I think they feel more secure and in place probably because of the texturing. But they don't exactly slip and slide all over the place like before. I think it's because the gummy bears require a tight pocket. I like that though, it kind of seems more youthful almost. Plus if they slid too much before it'd be painful for me although I'm not sure if that was because of my bottoming out. I'd say the implant is more palpable from the inside before, around the edges. I can feel the ridges on the bottom if I push along the skin but no ripples are visible at all unless I'm bending over with my arms out. This really hasn't changed much from before. I would say the ridges are slightly less visible than before but I can feel them a little more from the inside than before. Hopefully that makes sense!!

Hey I know this is like a year late but its a good question. I do feel some difference internally for sure though it’s hard to describe. They feel a little more dense especially when laying on my stomach. The first year it hurt to lay on my stomach but now it feels totally fine after time has passed. They definitely feel like they stay put. For example raising my arms up i feel a small pull in this one spot on my left boob like its stuck there almost. But for me i think thats a good thing cuz they stay in place and dont droop like that last implants did. It takes more work to get cleavage now and terms or squishing them together. Those strapless “chicken cutlet” bras are the best though. You can even wear them under a bra for extra cleavage. The others were just way more permeable and could like fit in any space almost and these now hold their shape. Overall I prefered the interior gel of the old implants better but these gummy bears stay in position so I am very happy I finally got to the right implant for me.

Annnnnd I'm soooo happy you aren't having any more issues with yours. They look sooooo good girl. I hope you have a merry Christmas and a safe and happy New Year. xoxo
