1 year, 3 months post-surgery!
Hello Everyone!
It's been over a year since I've been on here last. I got a BA in October of 2014 with Drs. Hall and Wrye in Reno, NV. My results are STUNNING. I couldn't have asked for anything better. I ended up settling around a 32-34DDD. They have dropped fully, the scars are healed, and nipple sensitivity has come back to about 75 percent. They feel very natural! If anyone has any questions for someone this far along in the process, ask me and I shall reply! Thank you all for an awesome community.
14 Weeks Post-Surgery!
Hello everyone! This may be my last update for a while, unless I have something new and exciting to report. I am a little over 3 months past my surgery, and I love, love, love that I made the choice to do this. My results look amazing, and around the end of the third month, I forgot that they were not real. I can't even remember the feeling of smaller boobs.
So some stats, in case anyone wants to know: I have 700 ccs in each, High Profile Mentor Silicone, incisions below each breast (Which are about 1 to 1 1/2 inches long.) I was a 36B, and am now a 34F/36DD, depending on the bra! For my last update, I have some reflections/tips for anyone going into this:
-If you are worried about which size to choose, go larger. It seems frivolous and even sleazy to go larger, but they do settle in, and non-push-ups are always an option. Too many people that I've talked to now have regretted going small. It's not worth the money if you can't get the results that you wanted.
-BUY SCAR STRIPS. From Walmart, Walgreens, target, anywhere that sells them. They help reduce scar tissue formation, keep the incisions safe, and even help keep them clean. They last through the shower and are cheap for the amount that they help. I am still using them 3 months out, and I plan on it until the scars have faded.
-Something that I haven't seen people talk about yet: stretch marks! I didn't think about this until a few weeks ago when the implants had dropped fully and I woke up one morning with a large corona of stretch marks around my nipples. Not pleasant! I am sure that they will fade with time, but I began recently to use lotion to keep the skin flexible. This is important for women with smaller breasts going as large as I did.
-Sensitivity! I'm 3 months out, and I have about 70% sensitivity in my left breast, and about 20% sensitivity in my right. This is a real issue: losing sensitivity does happen in the process. I was sure that it wouldn't happen to me, but three months later I am still waiting to feel anything in areas of my boobs. Talk to your doctors about preventing this, and know that it is a risk.
-Lastly, massage is extremely vital to the process. I was awful about it, and caused a lot of problems with my right breast. It didn't drop until I began to massage it, and it ended up being more painful than it had to be.
I added two photos, I may add more tonight to finish the post. Thank you all for your love and support! Always comment with any questions.

Almost a Month!
Hello! I haven't updated in a few weeks, I wanted to give my body time to adjust and to get off of the pain medications and bandages.
I've made it over the worst of the hurdles! Thankfully with few complaints, the doctors did an amazing job. I'm only at a month and I'm starting to lose sight of my incisions! My implants have settled, and look much better now. I can't recommend enough that everyone purchase Scar Strips, they are soft fabric strips with antibacterial adhesive on the back, they cover the incisions and heal them and they stay on for days, even through bathing! I don't think my scars would be anywhere near their level of healing without them.
To anyone recently post-op with large implants: it will get better! I had a bad second week, one of my implants wouldn't settle and would actually shift painfully if I moved my arm. I thought I had needles in my skin! But the pain did go away, and I'm regaining feeling in both breasts (80% there in left, 20% in right). Also, make sure to do your massaging!! It's crucial to heal, and makes them settle faster. Listen to your doctor!
I ended up with a 34F/36DD, but that's Victoria's Secret sizing, so I'm about a 34DD anywhere else. I LOVE MY NEW BREASTS!! :D I'm so glad to have made this choice. Have fun and good luck!! I'll update in another month or so, when they're fully settled.
