I'm doing very well. Swelling is gone, and I'm just now starting to sculpt my body again. I've been working on building up my push up count. Pre surgery, I could do about 4 sets of 10. This week, I can now do one set of ten, maybe twice a day. It's crazy how fast your muscles regress without exercise. I've started working my abs recently, too. I see my PS next month to discuss a revision for the sag. They're not too bad, and they look smokin' in a bra I must say, haha!!!!!

I am still doing well. I had my 2 month follow up w/ the PS about 2 weeks ago. He said I am healing well, but he's not thrilled about my breasts. Apparently, I am one of those lucky (sarcasm) people whose skin likes to sag. My breasts in the last several weeks have started to sag a good deal. He told me preop that I would be prone to sagging, but I figured he meant years from now. So, he wants to see me in 2 more months to see if they are staying about the same, or sagging more. At that time, we will discuss a revision. He said he could maybe make the breasts a little bigger, and lift again, to keep them up since my tissues like to sag. I am willing to go through it again, b/c I really liked how my breasts looked before the sag set in. Now that they are bigger, and heavier, the sag is really noticeable to me, as in I feel the skin hanging, and am constantly re-adjusting them in my bra. I really do NOT want to pay for the whole breast surgery over again, so we'll see how much the revision will run, and take it from there. The TT has healed beautifully, and I'm super happy with the results.

Wow Itwife Your breast looked great. I hope that the sagging now is still an improvement from your before. Did that happen after all the swelling went down? It is still hard to picture them sagging esp when they are sub muscular. Your posts have educated and encouraged so many.... I wish you all the best !

They are not as bad as before.... but I guess when he did the lift, the tissues over the muscle just sagged again. So, I'm not sure if he'll have to do a more aggressive lift next time or what. I looked back at my post op pics and it looks like even 2 weeks post op, they were starting to sag some.

Did your PS mention the sagging breast being due to loosing collagen? I'm curious because my PS told me she had to put my implants under the muscle because my skin had too much elasticity, because I am losing collagen. In order to fill in the loose skin w/ implant on top, she would have had to put in much larger than 400cc which was too big for my body structure. Which is why she went under the muscle. Anyhow, I'm curious to know if I will have the same thing happen, new saggy boobies? Hmmm I've done some reading & found that there are plenty of foods to help build Collagen. I need to be a healthier eater! LOL Happy continued healing!
