I am still not happy with the size of my boobs. They are also very far apart which makes me look weird. Because I live so far away (I'm in PA and PS is in FL) my PS can't tell me for sure if he will give me a revision or not. I have to go there in person, which I am doing at the end of this month. I'm a bit scared because he and the staff at Strax are stating that from the pictures, everything looks fine. I was even told by someone that this is due to how my breasts are or sit on my chest normally. This is not true because when I am pregnant my boobs get huge and they have NEVER sat this far apart. I am hoping in person they can see what EVERYONE else I know sees. It's so embarrassing. I also want to try and get bigger implants while I'm there. The ones I have now don't seem to be the size or shape I was hoping for. I am one of the weird people that actually wants the "fake" look. Another thing is that one of my boobs is bigger and shaped a little different than the other. I believe it's because one of my babies would only nurse from that side and she nursed for 3 years. I told Dr. P this at our first visit and he insisted they were the same. Now that my boobs are fuller, you can really see the difference. Also very embarrassing.

Do be embrassed Jen! I'm have issue to and I try to be positive about it. My left boob is way smaller than my right, my PS agreed to re do it in May but I won't see him again until he is back from Vacation in 3 more weeks. I kind of went into this thinking there are alot of things that can happen that we ccan;t control, like scarring, spit stitched, belly button issues. but I never thought my PS would give me different size implants because 1 boob was bigger and then I would lose fat in that same boob making is smaller...so be positive it can be fixed, make them fix it! Big Hugs momma, I'm here to share you pain..OH in BTW on top of that my belly button is closed up, had some dead tissue removed a month after my surgery and now its completely closed..not sure I want anything do to it though

Thank you ttkk97. I hope your PS does a great job this time around. ;-)

Hei BabyJen, I feel your pain. I wish I was there to hug you :-(. You're 100% right to be upset . Yes I'm honest there's a big gap plus one boob is pear shaped while the other is apple round. First I'm really sorry for what you go through. Secondly, you know how much I love you and want you to be happy. Take a breath. Please , please don't get too upset. Think cold. Make a plan. Go back and the boobs that you really want. Being angry will only make thinks worst. I want you to go back and I'm sure you'll come back happy. Please promise me you wipe those tears and plan your revision. (((((((((million hugs))))))))))) from your sister Zi

Hey Jen. Just wondering how you're doing? I know you had some concerns about your boobs. I too felt mine were different sizes but they eventually became even. I have however had a lot of the TT incision openings. So frustrating. 7 months out and still seeing these little suckers.
April 30, 2013
Hi SuburbanMom. I'm still upset and haven't had a chance to get my revision yet. I might wait till next year to do it. I'm so sorry you are still struggling with your TT incision. :(
May 26, 2014
You look so good!!! I was just reading your review and I am so sorry you are not happy with your boobs. Honestly your husband and your self maybe the only ones to notice the discrepancies cuz when you have clothes on its not really noticeable at all. Unless its the angle of the camera but with the blue shirt the boobs looked really good.
May 26, 2014
Thank you. Yes that shirt works miracles. lol If you see me in person it is a little noticeable. Especially in a bikini. One sits higher and one is bigger. I am in love with my TT though. It inspired me to lose weight. I went from almost 130 lbs to 110 lbs. Which is a concern for me with my BBL because I might have to gain weight for the lipo. :/

Any updates? Did you get a revision to fix them ? Or did your doc thought they were fine (very few admit) :-( hopefully he did. Curious to know what happened with your journey. Take care :-)
UPDATED FROM Its4Me Jen

Well it's been a while since I've posted. A lot...

Well it's been a while since I've posted. A lot of drama around here. The latest is having the Noro-Virus visiting and wanting to move in. I had to make my family eat using disposable plates and utensils so I can throw away the germs. That seemed to work as I believe it's finally gone. My children also started dance competitions and that takes a lot of my time.

Well the update. I am 14 weeks post op and still unhappy with my breasts. It is very noticeable that there is a huge gap between my breast and my side boobs go far into my underarm. I cannot wear shirts with a low cut because people will notice. I have had friends and family comment about it and it's so embarrassing. I go for a pre op at the end of March and my PS will make his final decision if he'll do the revision then. It's kind of hard to really see in pics and make a professional decision like that. I totally respect that. He is so super nice. So far I think he will do the revision because he is making me make an appointment for the OR the day after my pre op and will have all my blood work done the day of pre op. He stated the only way he will say no is if he determines it will make things worse for me rather than better. Have to say I am excited about the revision. Will also see if I can go a little bigger.

With my TT I am VERY happy. My results there are awesome.

Posted a pic so you see where I am at with my breasts.

glad to hear that he is fixing it! in a few more weeks you'll be set set set for summer ;)

Thank you Laury. I hope so. I am so nervous and paranoid now.
February 2, 2013
Bigger is better (wink) . Oh baby-Jen don't be upset. I'm not a professional but I think there should not exist 2 procedures done together. Especially the ones that takes 3 or more hour. I'm sure your doc will give you an outstanding revision. He's very professional. Even though I like your boobs size you can try bigger. Just a little. March is just around the corner. I'll pray for you babe. You'll be sooooo beautiful.
February 2, 2013
(((Zizi))) You're so sweet! I'm wondering if once he fixes them, they will look bigger since the mass to the sides will be in front.
February 2, 2013
If I were you I'll ask this question here on Q/A so you'll be able to get multiple professional answers from the docs. Take few good pics and post it. At least you don't wait until march to find out. And don't worry nobody will judge your pics. We are here to support another sister. At least I am :-]. Now seriously even if you like and trust ur PS it doesn't hurt to know. I'll go back to my PS for more lipo. If you judge my pics you'll say yaah yaaah you don't need but I know I should get more. So what. At least from now on I'll know not to combine 2 sx-ies. I'm not mad at all. I think this was all what my PS could do. There are only 6h for safe anesthesia and I got a heavy body. I am extremely happy with my result but still need more done. Sister go back and get your dream boobies. I'll be here to pray for you. This is life and we deal with serious stuff. ((((((hugs))))))). No worries lil sister.

You look great but I'm feel you on the boobs..I may get my revisited in May..one is too small because I lost more fat in it and it was bigger to start so PS put in a small implant.I hate the way they look when I naked..some days it doesn;t look so bad so we'll see but I think I wll get them done PS is on board he got them even and nipple even but one is just much bigger..I'm glad you posted been wondering where you were :)
February 4, 2013
I am so sorry to hear that ttk97. I hope you are able to get them fixed. I need to call to make an appointment for next month, but now I'm getting worried again like with the first surgery. lol Now I keep thinking how about if he gets them too close this time and I get a uniboob. lol Yes, I know I disappeared. Things get hectic over here when the dance team competitions start, then add the flu and the noro-virus. Ayi-yay! The Dance competitions are all over the place so a lot of road trips and hotel stays. I am so pooped by the end of the day I pass out. lol

Hey Jen, you do look great. Big improvement. I do understand about the boobs too. Sounds like you have a good PS who cares about his work so hopefully he will fix it and make you satisfied once and for all! Your tummy looks great though. I wouldn't worry about the dark incision though at 4 weeks. The scar goes through its own little stages and that is one of them. Get some type of whitening or lightening cream, that will probably help. Happy healing hun!

Thank you so much cheweb. You are so sweet.

Thank you cheweb. I am VERY happy with my tummy. I think he did a great job too.

I will be 9 weeks post op tomorrow and I am healing nicely. I have been using biocorneum and I am extremely happy with my results; Highly recommend this scar treatment. I will post pics later. My TT scar is still very noticeable, but a lot lighter. I know that one will take longer to heal and I will probably always have a scar. I'm still using the biocorneum on it and it is getting lighter though. One weird thing that happened to me was that the scar on my breast looked like it was completely closed and the scar was getting lighter, then one morning (around 7 week post op) I woke up with something that looked like a small bruise on my breast. It didn't hurt, but it was like you could see a bruise there. Then the next morning I woke up with a hole where the bruise was. I didn't even call my PS because I have read of this happening on here so much (love this place) and figured it was just my breast spitting a stitch. I put neosporin and bandages and kept an eye on it just in case so I can call my PS if it got worse. It didn't and around day 5 of it showing up, it closed again all by itself. It was a little scary, but I was comforted knowing it was normal.

And a little TMI...... I am so psyched with my flat tummy and perky boobs that I am having a blast buying lingerie and bras! lol Can't wait till swimsuit season!!!
