Almost 2 years!

Wow .. I honestly didn't think I'd be back to update again but I was back on the site to document my miraDry treatment I'm get done 5/13/15 and took pictures of my underarms which made me think ... I really wish I had known the scars from my BA would look THIS GREAT. Again, I could never give enough complements to Dr. Young. He is truely amazing.

So for all of you getting under the arm incisions for your BA ... Get excited! I've posted my incisions for you. The pictures were taken today and you can hardly see them!

A few notes - something that I started to notice about a month ago. I started getting pimple like bumps on the scars under my arms. I'd get one or two about every month so I wasn't really concerned and it didn't hurt or get red so no worries. Well when hanging out with a doctor friend, she told me this is normal for scar tissue and gave me Onexton topical cream to put on once a day. My dermatologist is confident that the miraDry treatment will also clear this issue. Maybe this is TMI but I wish someone had shared these things with me!

Anyway, just wanted to share and offer more post op pictures of my scars for you ladies still looking into getting a BA.

On another note I'm still super glad I got my BA. Not that my bigger boobs define me but I can't imagine not having had done the procedure. The key is defintly a fantastic doctor and I'm glad I had such a wonderful experience.

Ask any questions and I'll answer them as best I can with my personal experiences - I'll be on this site updating my miraDry post so I be around :)

Update ... It's been quite awhile.

I've been following many of your stories on here the last few months but have been too preoccupied to update. Sorry all! Between working, wedding planning and enjoying my new assets therefore, I have not had time.

Everything is going wonderfully! My fake boobs don't feel fake at all, they feel like they are mine and natural, which is great! Mad props to Dr. Young and his staff! I can only hope he is still practicing when I need to replace them in 10-15 years. I still wear sport bras 75% of the time just because they are really comfortable. Not that bras are not comfortable I just like the sports bras. Also, lingerie has been a fun new sexy adventure now that I have boobs.

All that being said there are a few things for you ladies still in the research or planning process.

Everyone says it but ... GO BIGGER. Seriously, I expected around 300cc before I went for my consultation and picked 400cc at my consultation once I had on sizers but now... over 6 months later, I find myself wishing I had still gone bigger. Even a little bit. It's not a horrible feeling and I have no regret because I get to do this all over again in 10-15 years and I will pick a bigger implant then. I'm currently at 32D at VS which makes me a C in real life, which is what I thought I wanted. I almost had a melt down Day 1 Post Op because I thought I had picked too big of a size but now ... sitting here after all the time I've had to bond with my new girls, I wish they were just a bit bigger. In conclusion, don't be conservative when picking your size and add 50cc or more, EVEN when you think you have found the perfect size. Surely, you won't regret it. And, DON'T freak out about your boobs being too big until at least 1 month Post Op. Save yourself the stress.

Secondly and lastly, getting back into working out was NOT easy for me like other people suggested on here. Maybe I'm a wimp but it's only been the last few weeks that I have been able to get back into Crossfit (intense workouts). I've been doing light workouts and cardio since Dr. Young released me for working out but many things felt uncomfortable/awkward for me getting back into it. That discomfort didn't truly go away for me until the end of last year. Like I said, I may be a wimp and I'm sure I would have been fine if I pushed myself and got back into Crossfit earlier but I didn't because I wasn't used to the feeling of flexing my chest muscles with an implant behind them. Over more time this feeling went away, I'm sure its a combination of more healing and getting used to the implants with daily activities. I don't want to discourage anyone that likes to keep fit and workout. I just wanted to give my personal experience since I had been disappointed by expectations verses reality.

Hope everyone is doing well!

Tanks for recovery!

I can't believe I forgot to post this. My friend who had a BA a year ago told me about them and it helped a lot. The first couple of days of recovery I lived in these and now they are great for house work/working out. They are easy to get on and off which is why I loved them when I first got home. I made three of them. I recommend using a size or two larger than you would normally wear so they fit loose and it's easy to get your arms in and out. Plus it would a fun project while I was getting ready for surgery! Instructions on website. Enjoy!
