My bra addiction, scar update and fluff!

Took some bras back to VS(wrong sizing) and they happened to be having a flash sale so I got some I have been eyeing for a while for only 19.99(bras that are normally around 60. they all 3 are 34dd, also a scar update, you can see when I raise my arms they aren't noticeable but from underneath they are dark. Also showing how squishy they are and movable. I never did true massages, my PS never told me not to and said it was unnecessary. Yes, I could've handled more CC's, yes I could've had a lift but I decided at this point in my life I wasn't ready for all that. I'm happy so far:)

They've added a lot, let me know if you get any you really like. I wore the maroon/multi color one last night and the wires dug into my ribs, especially when I sat down :(

Your scars are looking great! What are you using on them?
User Avatar
October 9, 2016
Thank you, nothing at all! again doctor didn't recommend any specific products so I had no idea what to buy. my scars are pretty long compared to almost all the scars I've seen on here(other than lifts) I'm just glad they aren't noticeable. do you have any recommendations?
October 9, 2016
I've been alternating between silicone scar gel and the silicone scar strips, but I don't know that it's making any difference. My PS also said I could do scar massage, but I haven't done that.

Ah you look so great! Really natural and pretty! I'm hopefully going for no lift if as long as my ps doesn't change his mind.

Thank you. If you can get away without the extra scars of a lift, definitely a plus. I know I could've used a lift as well but I'm happy with them so far. Good luck!

More bras

First picture is me in my favrite wireless push up bra in 34dd from VS. The rest are all Wacoal in various sizes, some fit me well in 34ddd and 1 in 34dd. The 36dd was a little big in the cup. I feel like a couple aren't as flattering under shirts, especially with the lace or they flatten me.

The blue lacy wacoal is beautiful!!!

I loved it too, it was so pretty! unfortunately I returned it since it was a little big in the cups because I bought the 36 instead of the 34

I'm laughing over here because I bought that same turquoise Wacoal demi too! I took it back though because I didn't like how it looked under thin t-shirts, etc. I really like the demi look though! The bra woman at Nordstroms also told me that probs with gaping probs will get better as I become more "malleable" LOL. OMG that day shopping for bras was quite an experience. Love the pic with your VS push-up bra...I have textured and they are on their own timeline for softening so I'm just barely ready to try a push-up bra. You've motivated me to give it a shot!

I didn't like that bra for the same reason, I didn't want to see the lace under shirts. I really am in love with the VS demi dream angels(lacey but no show) I tried on I just didn't want to spend the $70 but I may have to lol textured definitely wont move and drop as fast or maybe even as much but go ahead and try the push up, it makes mine look completely different. one thing I don't like is when I pick up things or even during sex they tend to tighten up and not be squishy lol I have to really try and think about not flexing.

Ok I just posted about the VS push up bra on your other review ...I'm confusing myself!! Is the one you're wearing with the black t-shirt the VS demi dream angels?

Tonight I was scooping ice cream that was super frozen and I felt my left boob kind of tighten up or maybe it was the pec tightening up. That's when I know I'm not healed all the way or maybe it will always do that?!

hey there, I just responded to your other post, sorry, I have 2 profiles because initially I was going to do a mommy makeover but I held off on my stomach. anyway, the black pushup is a wireless and it goes over your head =, the straps are adjustable though. and as far as the muscle moving, I'm pretty sure it will always do that to some extent because of going under the muscle, I'm noticing though that as time goes on I have more control over how bad it flexes but that was the trade off. that's also why women who weight lift cant do all of the same things as they use to prior to a BA.

I get the clothing problems, I feel now that more fitting shirts look better but I also am a little self conscious about wearing them and showing them off. other shirts I use to love look like a tent now lol

Thank you so much! I definitely feel I could've handled the HP in 600-650 (cant believe believe I'm saying that) but cant imagine what bra size I would've been and also my nipples could be higher but it doesn't bother me (or my husband lol) now just the waiting game for the nerves...
User Avatar
September 26, 2016
I feel the same way about 600s. But then we'd have a really hard time finding a bra that wasnt hideous lol. But you lool sooooo good! And i think your nipples are fine.
User Avatar
September 29, 2016
I know! and when I pull my skin up above my nipples they do look better a little higher up but then I think of the huge scar and extra pain just for them to be .5-1 in. higher may not be worth it. thank you for the compliment, yours look amazing as well!
User Avatar

They definitely look completely natural now!! So glad you're happy Hun!! I know you've had some continued sensitivity and numbness issues, but that's great it's improving at least! Do your nipples react normally to cold? Mine don't, but they do to touch, or even the breast massages - but I seem to be in the minority?? So just wondering if nipple sensation is something you struggled with at any point? I also had/have hypersensitivity throughout other parts of the breast itself, like where the seatbelt lays was torture at one point.

Looks beautiful Hun, glad you're out of pain now!! =)

September 29, 2016
Thank you:) never had issues before my BA. The left is slower with cold or touch than my right. I get zinger pains sporadically now so I'm thinking things are trying to connect. I was hypertensive in the beginning on my right nipple and the areola was completely numb, now the hyper is gone and I have complete feeling. On the left the areola has some pain sensation (some areas mot the entire area) when I pinch and no sensation at all on the nipple

I know the taller you are they recommend larger implants but let me ask you this , with thin tall girls do you need less CC's or more to make a difference? Just confused about it all
October 7, 2016
Btw , they look great and very very natural
User Avatar
October 7, 2016
Yes tonya99, less cc's if your super skinny. It's all about that boob-rib-waist ratio. If you're super skinny you wouldn't need a ton of cc's to get a full look.

everything looks small I guess because people swear I must be a size 2 and I'm a 10 lol I would think on a thinner girl they will def. look bigger because and its the width also that makes you look bigger or smaller. I know someone who has the same CC and profile as me(hers are saline though) and I think she looks bigger in me but she is a little shorter/thinner than me and smaller up top. but she also tends to wear more revealing or tighter shirts than I do

Thanks ,see this is all helping so much, people that have already had there BA are very helpful. I appriciate the girls who stick around letting us girls know about CC's ,what to expect during or after surgery. Some girls post a couple after BA pictures and never are heard from again. Just know your reviews and comments are helping God knows how many woman.

Thanks that means a lot to me since I really would've never thought I would've put all of this out there for the World to see:) I just know how much it helped me also. I think we can pick apart every little detail, I researched my butt off and still could've went bigger, but in my head I can get a nice bra and add but I cant take away.
