One year out!
WORTH IT
Checking in on my one year reduction anniversary! Honestly I could not be happier. There is not a day that goes by that I regret my decision or wish anything would have gone differently regarding my surgery. Although painful for the first month or so, the relief and confidence I have gained from having this procedure done is unbelievable. I get compliments all the time from women who know I've had the surgery, and old friends thinking I have never looked slimmer who don't necessarily realize my surgery occurred.
Down to technicalities, my scars are barely visible, although they are very present. The scar tissue underneath feels largely broken up. I have no doubt that they will continue to fade over the next few months but I am in no rush as they don't bother me in the slightest.
From a 34H to a 34DD and I am a very, very happy camper. Also incredibly relieved I didn't go too much smaller... I am big and talk and I think my new and improved boobs suit me much better.
Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns regarding the surgery or for a reccommendation of my doctor, Dr. Tang in Halifax. He was amazing.

3 months!
Where has the time gone? Final exams in a few weeks and then I will be home for Christmas... crazy. And with new boobs to show off too!
3 months later and I could not be happier. There was a period between having all the tape off and having them all sealed up like they are now where I was worried the shape was super boxy, but it turns out this always happen and they just settle eventually. I am still wearing sports bras/wireless bras until my next post-op meeting with Dr. Tang which is Dec. 20th....I know what I'll be asking for for Christmas!!
Overall, all is well. Having always been an athlete, I really did NOT expect just how out of shape I'd get with 6+ weeks no working out. Struggling to get back into it but all I can say is ease back, don't push it and listen to your body (and your boobs!).
Looking back through my pictures I can't believe my boobs used to be what they were... I'm so happy now about get compliments all the time about how nice and proportionate they are. And not to mention the shopping! Everything looks better. Could not be happier.
Tried on many bras... officially 34DD/36D depending on the bra. SO HAPPY! My small-chested friends are all a little sour... how I could have had a breast reduction and still be significantly bigger than them. Oh well!
Scars are still a little pink, and under one side I still have a bit of a wrinkle, but the left flattened out after a few weeks and I do believe the other side will too. They feel a little hard under the nipples but otherwise they look and feel as if I was born with them!
Happy holidays ladies! Thanks for all the great support and wonderful words.
