WORTH IT
My breasts were large prior to my procedure 36 DD. But had started to sag. Not bad but enough I wanted the lift done. My dr had to take a little out but the results are great. It's only a month post but just wondering if this swelling (puffiness)that is under my breasts will stretch out more. I don't think my breasts have rounded out completely and my doctor told me 2wks ago that it will keep stretching out. Just curious what others thought. Also looks like my left breast has a dog-ear. Could that possibly stretch out more too since this is early still?? Thanks for any comments

Am almost 5 weeks and my breast and scars still swollen ...asked my doctor he said I should to wait at least 3 more months ...so depressed ..

Ya everything I'm reading and have read said it's too early to tell. It's just hard to not be worried or paranoid. We just need to be patient and I'm sure we'll be thrilled at the outcome. Good to hear others say the same thing tho

If I were to have my breasts done this is what I would want to have done. Did you lose nipple sensiyivity? If you did, how long did it last?
July 1, 2015
No, I was lucky and didn't lose any. Actually I was more sensitive at first but now everything seems normal

So then what size implant did you choose? Looks great!

Thanks! No implants. They were big enough :). Just needed a lift. I really wish I would have thought to take a before pic. I need to get a copy of my before next time I go for a check up.

Hi I'm 6 wks post op 2day. I can assure u the swelling will go down, it may take a few months 4 them 2 settle. I will tell u tho it's r lookin great after just a month. I'm waitin 4 my left breast 2 drop more as I look uneven at the mo as my rite breast has an implant due 2 me havin Poland syndrome(no pec or major chest muscles). Also if u find a spot that doesn't seem 2 b healing don't worry, I leave my support bra off until I know everything is dry. Hope u have a great recovery. By the way I'm in the UK :)

Thank you! Good to hear others have the same worries or similar healing experiences. I did notice after putting a better bra on mine weren't as sore where they're swollen.
June 18, 2015
You have plenty of support from me and other ladies. It's just finding a nice comfy bra with plenty of support. Don't do 2much 2 soon. Have a speedy recovery :)
June 17, 2015
I'm thinking of having it done as well. Do you have any before pics?
June 18, 2015
No and I wish I would have taken some!!!! Besides the worry and just being patient I'm really happy I did it

You look amazing, you must be so happy...Don't worry about the swelling, it takes some time to go..Just when I think ah that's it, this is what I look like it changes..Not just from week to week but at times day by day..I actually told a lady in a bra shop that all my swelling had gone, I was 6 weeks Po and she gave me a funny look..I thought ha, what would you know, these are my boobies but alas I now know why she looked at me like that..Oh well, I had no idea they would change so much..Happy healing and stay well...

Mine are similar size, and I had a lift as well, but I also had small implants to make them firmer and perkier. My surgery was mid May and i am still in some daily pain so guessing I still have some swelling as well. It hurts to change gears in my car!

Should not be wearing underwire bra as they don't allow for the proper drop and can aggravate scar tissue soft sports bra with zip is what I was told
July 1, 2015
I think that applies more w implants. Mine is just a lift. I know some doctors still say no underwire but mine suggested it.
