...and, at this point, I honestly don’t give too much thought to my boobs anymore. They’re not perfect, but I’m overall happy with them. I am once again confident in my birthday suit! I havent really noticed many changes over the past year, despite choosing not to wear a bra to bed. Comfort and good sleep outweigh perky boobs in my book!
To anyone with breasts similar to mine (empty, and with pseudo-ptosis) who is nervous about having a Benelli (there are so many surgeons who seem to HATE them-I had consults with two docs who told me that they would ONLY do a vertical lift on me): Choose your PS wisely AND make sure that you have realistic expectations. I wanted my pre-baby breasts back, and I think that was fairly well accomplished...I am nearly certain I would have been disappointing with the scarring from a vertical lift. The “improved” shape it would have offered me would not have outweighed the scarring. Also, advocate for yourself. My PS would have gladly added an extra 100cc+ to my implants if I hadn’t stressed my desire to keep small breasts (30DDD tiny, lol). Cosmetic surgery should be done for our own personal aesthetic appeal, NOBODY else’s (not even our PS’s). Know what you want, and find the best surgeon to be able to offer that to you!

Happy boobiversary!
The girls just celebrated their first birthday. It's been nothing but smooth sailing. I am still really happy with my decision to repair my ta-tas. I continue to have anxiety about the possibility of capsular contracture, or bottoming out at some point...but that's just me being neurotic.
My 300cc implants added almost three inches to my bustling, putting me a lot closer to the "hourglass figure" that I was looking for. My measurements are currently 33-23.5-35. Having curves has definitely made it a bit easier to shop! I know you can't purchase self-esteem, but I was SO disgusted with my boobs, that it negatively impacted my sexuality. It feels awesome to be comfortable in my skin...I know that we're all supposed to love ourselves for our insides, and be appreciative of our bodies for the awesome work they do/have done (I AM grateful that my body grew and nourished my babies), BUT I wanted pretty boobs, dammit ????.
They aren't perfect, but they're soft, squishy, and perky-so I won't complain!

Hi cheeky, Thanks for coming back and doing an update! You look absolutely fantastic! I think I told you before you have one of the best Benelli lifts I’ve ever seen. I’m curious to know did you PS use permanent sutures around your areolas?

Aww, thanks again. In seeing how often women are disappointed with their benellis, I feel EXTRA grateful! My PS used Fiberwire permanent sutures around the areola. For the first several months, there was definitely an inflammatory response, and I could feel a ridge at the suture line, but it's softened up tremendously. I honestly dont know that my lift would have held as well as it has.

I agree - the best Benelli lift. You look amazing.

Thanks SO much. In knowing HOW bad Benellis can turn out, I am extra thankful for my boobies. Did I see that you are planning a scar revision for the near future? I think you ended up with an ideal shape (!),but I can appreciate that it's frustrating to see wider scars than you were anticipating.
Best of luck!!!
Best of luck!!!

Thanks-- yes. The shape is good but the scars not so much so I am going to give that a try!

You look amazing! And no scars! Wow! Beautiful results!:)

Thanks-the scarring really is minimal! I wish I had some magic technique to share, but I was a total slacker with post-op incision care, and can really only give credit to my surgeon's skill, and my body's natural tendency to scar well. Good luck on your procedure!!!

You look simply amazing! Sort of makes me wish I tried the benelli lift. I love my boobs now but hate the scars.
