WORTH IT$5,300
So i saw Dr. Jeneby who said that my breasts look great & he doesn't see a need for any revisions. He had me flex my muscles and he felt them & said they're still behind the tissue, so its probably just a few things that cause me to feel it so much. Weight loss, i use my right hand/arm so much, R breast is 50 cc's more than the left. By the way i found out my final numbers are 430/480. i know they say dont pay attn to the 'numbers' so much but when i tried 2 times to even them out & they are the ones that decide how many cc's to add to reach my goal... then maybe they shoulda paid a lil more attn to the numbers. :( He also said that my right has kinda hung to the side always, but not so noticeable when they're small. i looked over the sets of pics he had and he is somewhat right.. I've looked again and again in different angles and i GUESS they're not SO off, but the FEELING it move is the yucky part. that sux. i dont want to be 'aware' of my breast movement but I guess I'll get use to it. My initial anticipation was to be able to go bra less and still be comfy & look awesome...where now... well i want a tighter bra to hold em in place. *sigh* us women are just never satisfied huh? lol I've attached a couple pics .. showing w/& w/out clothes/bra.. I guess it could always be worse. Would i do it again? you betcha :)

I think your breasts turned out beautiful! At certain angles I can see what you are saying about the right but in some photos they look very similar to me. I hope you've had some time to adjust to the difference a little. I too have one breast that sags lower than the other and when I look back at old photos (I needed a full lift & implant) it did that too. Do you have the sloshing sound anymore?

thank you! i think they've def grown on me. I never really had a 'sound' of the movement . i just FEEL the right one move like when i bend over if I'm in a loose or no bra and when i lay down on my R side i feel it shift , unlike with the left. its so odd to me, but i guess...i do have an unnatural OBJECT in my body.. so i guess adjusting to it is all i can do.

How do you like saline ? I am getting my implants in September and I was going to go with silicone but I think I decided on saline just cause I don't want to lose upper pole. Any suggestions ? Do you have rippling or anything what size are you at now ? I'm hoping for a DD

I had a lot of breast tissue to begin with, my doc said since I was having unders and a lot of my own tissue, I wouldn't feel the difference between the 2. High profile give more projection & gives plenty of upper pole fullness. Hope this helps.

See I never knew or understood too much about 'high profle' 'upper pole' terms.. i chose Saline because I could adjust and i was hoping for that semi natural look. I havent had any rippling at all. I wear a 36D in VS bra's but some are DD's in other brands. Good luck in Sept. & ask me anything! thanks!

Your breasts look beautiful and very natural. I think you may be too hard on yourself. Embrace the new jiggly you! For what it's worth, I've always had big [but saggy and low] and they always moved. Now it's just not by my waist. lol. ;-)

Your breasts are beautiful. If you are dissatisfied with the movement and asymmetry then seek a second opinion. Good luck!

so either my right breast implant has moved out of its pocket or my left breast is leaking and much smaller or they totally didnt get them 'even' enough and 6 MONTHS after port removal, they are just getting into their final 'settle'????? whatever it is , it needs to be fixed! i look in the mirror and feel nothing but disappointment. they are not pretty , attractive, or just tolerable to me when I look at them. Even in my bra. I just got a new wireless one from VS and there was this totally obvious slant/angle going on right in the middle of the bra where the Right breast was pulling the bra further out. waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
I dont want to pay this much $$ to be anything but happy. and NOW i'm sure i'll have to pay more to get them fixed. im so sad. i go to my 1 yr review on the 29th. and hoping that he tells me its not SO unusual and he can fix by altering ONE instead of both and that it wont cost me the same damn amt of $$ :( boo. The photos attached i wondered if jus becuz of HOW I'm holding my phone it DOES make the right one look a little worse than it really is, but...it's still pretty obvious that one is much bigger. hanging much lower.. and when i lay down i feel it shift around MUCH more. so idk wth is going on with them. :(

Something similar happened to me? About 15 years ago I had saline implants put in (not adjustable). After they settled one was larger and sat lower than the other. Life happened and I didn't get a revision. I could deal with one not looking exactly like the other, but the size difference really bothered me. I am finally getting a pocket revision and silicone implants in May! It always amazes me how much the look of our breast change over the years. Keep us posted on what the PS says.

And I still think your results are beautiful. But I totally get where you are coming from.

i wonder if thats what i'll need, a pocket revision. Becuz it sure seems like a few months ago they sat perfectly even. i mean one still seemed LIL bigger but HARDLY noticeable, so i just wonder if it moved. & when i lay down or lean certain ways i feel like its totally shifting like a muscle would do... this gives me hope that maybe only ONE will have to be altered. thanks for the input! and thank you for the compliment :) Will let you know what the PS says :) and good luck on your! keep us posted :)

My boobs are EXACTLY the same way! And it is very obvious even in a bra! In ur cute top photo and the one after that where u can see the one breast is obviously smaller, you can tell in each photo... BUT when u look at photos with your arms lowered your boobs look even (maybe a tiny slight difference but i have to squint my eyes to see that). Im thinking it might be a difference in your muscles. It seems that the one boobs looks "picked up" making it look smaller when u hold ur arms that position. Have u ever tried flexing to see if it actually picks one boob up more than the other.. there is a term for this, i need to look it up!! U look great though.

Sorry it's been so long. once its done you just try to forget about it and make things as 'normal' as possible. Overall I am happy with the outcome. Dr Jeneby gave me some awesome looking boobies :) I do not feel 100% 'normal' yet. Earlier on my skin was super sensitive and partially numb. The numbness is still not completely gone. like if i have an itch on the lower& outer parts i feel it PARTIALLY when i scratch. its odd to me. the sensitivity is gone for the most part. my nipples are still sensitive to any roughness, but not too harshly. i thought maybe it was the ports still being in there that was making the numbness, like maybe it was pressing on nerve endings.. but the ports have been out for a while, completely healed, but still some partial numbness...now its more so on the outer sides. hopefully that goes away and normal returns at some point. Looking back I do believe i got a little bit of boob greed. When i look at the photos the original implants really are pretty. with my 1st adjustment i said " i just want to make them a little more fuller"... which they did get very much fuller. Then with the 2nd adjustment i only requested to make them a little more even in size ( 1 was still bigger than the other) so they put a little more in each (more in 1 than the other). They are pretty big final result. Part of me thinks I went too big but then at other times I think they just look great in my clothes and thats pretty awesome. I will post photos soon to show the final final outcome after all adjustments & settling.
I really like Dr. Jeneby and probably will go to him again but with nothing more surgically, but maybe with some skin improvements. He has a very well known spa as well :)

I'm thinking about getting the adjustable implants. My surgery is May 12. Thank you for posting your story, it helps. I'd love to see recent pictures. I'm wanting to go "bigger" but worried about how they will look after they settle in. Everyone's results are different but it's nice to see what's possible :)

Thanks for reading my story!
