Almost 1 year after surgery!!

I don’t know if anyone will read this but I cannot believe that in a few weeks it’ll be 1 year since my surgery.
It is the best thing I have ever done in my entire life. I’m not going to say it has been the easiest journey because it most definitely hasn’t and sometimes I’m still not happy with my results as I’d love my breasts to be even smaller but when I look back at how they used to be I’m so so thankful that they no longer look like that.
I have gained a few pounds since surgery which I am hopefully going to lose after Christmas, and because I have an eating disorder it’s always a worry for me as my weight fluctuates so much and the weight always goes straight to my boobs which I hate but they haven’t lost their shape although my weight has changed so much in a year.
One breast is still quite a bit larger than the other which I have the biggest problem with but I am still incredibly happy and if I do want to change that in the future I would definitely go back to the Laderma clinic to make them more of a similar size.

3 months post
3 months post-op
K.rossbMarch 28, 2018
Hi, I'm now 3 months post-op and my wound has only just closed up (it took 2 months!!) how crazy is that. It was so much work cleaning it every day and having to wash my bra daily so I'm very happy that it's finally closing up!
My breasts have been great, they've healed and I've had no pain since the last time I updated. The sensation in my numb nipple is coming back too :) the only thing that I'm still bothered about is the size difference. My left breast is just so much bigger and I can't wear a normal bra because it's always too small for one side and too big for the other. Hopefully in a few more months the left will go down but I doubt it. I really don't want a revision but I think I'll have to!
One picture is from below so you can actually see the size difference! I'm still very happy though :)

I must say your scars are almost invisible after only 3 months. Yay for you!
The size diference is slightly visible in the pictures you posted, but may go down some more over time. At least you have the option of a revision if you need one.
I certainly have seen some improvement on a small dog ear I have, that was bothering me. I was ready to wait till the 6 month mark, and now it has dimished and is not noticeable anymore.

I'm having the same problem with size difference it's so frustrating I'm 7weeks and my left is larger almost a cup size. I have been fighting insurance for 5 years to have this done and now this

That must be so frustrating for you! The only advice I have is give it time; I hated when people told me to just wait a few months and it'll get better but they were right to some extent. The size difference didn't get better for me but I'm learning to accept it slowly.
I knew from the first week that mine would never be the same size because she took the same amount out of the two when one was so much bigger than the other. Yours might be swelling? but if it isn't just stick with it, you'll love them in a few months :)

Hi, I've really enjoyed reading your diary, I'm also having a BB in Prague next week!

The tape is off and bra size
K.rossbJanuary 18, 2018
So the tape is officially off and my left nipple is so sensitive! I hope it gets a little less sensitive but it doesn't bother me too much. I'm currently measuring at a 32DD or 30E. I don't really look that big but I have a small frame so my ribcage is 28 inches and over the fullest part of my breasts is 33/34 inches. I think the sideprofile picture shows how big the left breast is. I'm trying not to let bra sizes get me down though.
I'm going abroad next month with university so it'll be nice to actually wear a vest top for the first time :)

The size and shape overall go well with your frame. And incisions are looking good!

Hey! Your results are looking great!! I just wanted to say that there is a good chance your breasts will even out in size. Mine were similar to yours where the left was larger than the right (my difference was even bigger if you look at my photos immediately after surgery). It took 3 months for mine to even out. At 2 weeks and 1 month and even 2 months I was convinced that my left boob would always be larger, but very gradually it became smaller! I still like the overall look of my right boob better (the nipple is slightly higher with less scarring around it right now and its slightly perkier). I know things will continue to change though. So don't lose hope that things will even out - even if you had the same amount removed from each side there are many factors that could cause one side to swell more than the other. Good luck with your healing!

Thank you!! I really appreciate this comment. I think they look a little more symmetrical this week which I'm happy about. You results look absolutely amazing!!

I understand your trouble with the small size difference. But you do have the same cup size? I mean it´s not that noticeable and they still look great, but I get that it´s bothering you. I kinda have the same problem, but it was more noticeable when I first got them done, now 6 weeks later it has already improved a little. Have you asked them about it now that it´s been a year?
Oh, don´t you mind not wearing ´normal´ bras also?
Hmm, I don´t really understand why she took the same amount from both of them when they were a different size from the beginning. How much did you get removed from each side?
My left breast was bigger too but now it´s the slightly smaller one, however she told me beforehand that they´re not going to be the exact same size so I´m okay with it. Considering the way the breasts looked before and the shape she achieved, it´s totally been worth it.
Ok, so I guess it´s not bothering you too much and I don´t feel like anyone would notice unless they saw you without a bra on.
Yes they do! She truly did a great job.
