Fat Transfer - 4 days Post-Op

Hiya jenn~ Thanks for sharing your story. Have you booked surgery or consultation with a doctor yet? I strongly suggest you choose a board certified PS to do your BA! Also, if you do not want ridges or a visible scar you should get silicone with an inframammary incision. That's what I chose, and at 6 months post op the results are terrific! I wish you the best of luck on your journey...Take Care :)

I would say don't rush. You sound like me. Your pretty sure you would like them but only if their perfect, which of course is no guarantee. You should ask yourself the same question I am. " do I want these so much I'm willing to risk the complications, the scarring, the eventual need for a revision" I'm still working on that one myself. I know if all went well and they were perfect I would be over the moon happy, so I have to decide am I so unhappy/dissatisfied now that it's worth the risk. Good luck, do research, and be 100% positive of what you want and go for it!

Hi, Jenn! I commend your bravery. This tends to be a very supportive community, and I bet most of us can relate to your fears. It does look like you may have some lateral displacement, and I do, too. My surgeon told me that's because I have pectus carinatum, a condition where the center of the rib cage protrudes farther than the rest of the chest wall. To accommodate for this, my surgeon recommended using a high profile implant. I'm really hoping this gives me perkier and happier boobies, too. Best of luck on your journey and please keep us posted! :)

Thanks you guys for reading and posting! I feel a little better now already after the shock of posting pictures of my boobs on the Internet has worn off a little!

I haven't done a consultation yet because honestly I've also been considering doing the fat transfer technique. I have a friend who did it and her boobs look great! I just don't know if it will be a good fit for me. I like the idea of getting a little lipo on my tummy, both because I need it and because I think it will make my boobs project better if I don't have a flabby belly underneath them. Any thoughts?

I've really enjoyed reading your stories... It helps so much to not feel alone, or crazy, or vain, or whatever! I just want to feel confident and sexy and attractive again. I know some weight loss will help with that too so I'm working on that part... Trying to get more exercise, but it's hard 'cause I work and I'm in school too.

I'll try to take another photo or two and get the, posted if I can work my camera right! It's hard to take pictures of your own boobs!

Hi Jenn! Well I started out same size as you, and got 397cc under the muscle and now I am a full D. You are a bit taller though (I'm 5'5") so maybe can get away with a little more cc's to get the same. Did you do the rice sizers at home and try sizers at the docs office to see how they look on you? Oh, and I also got moderate plus profile. And noone has a clue I had a boob job! You can see my pics on my profile..and notice there are two parts. As a side note, I feel like I have more of a waist now that I have boobs and that my belly doesnt stick farther out than them. Lol. So thats an upside! Another thing I would like for you to think about is shirt size. Depending on how loose your tops are now will determine if you will need to move to the next size up. I was lucky and could still wear most of my old clothes.

well, how tall are you??  How much do you weigh? That helps determine what size you should go with

I'm just a smidge shy of 5'10" and weigh 143 (after Thanksgiving) ;( -- I was tee-tiny-tiny before and got 425cc silicone unders which has me at a full C, maybe a small D when it's all said and done. It's only been 4 weeks so I can't say for sure. I think it's really too early to measure. Go with what you want and what you'll be comfortable with. I always wore padded bras and don't think anyone has noticed (except the hubby of course). They're looking better every day. I would say go try on c vs d bras and kinda see where that gets you. Good luck!
