WORTH IT$12,000
Finally got my steri strips off yesterday and am able to shower and see the full result! My incisions are healed up really nicely and I've started wearing my silicone scar sheets (shown in the photo). I have a bit of rippling and some weird veinyness going on and still a bit of scanning on my nipples but that will go away soon. I am loving the result. I feel more like myself with these vs the giant Ds I have before! I love how clothes are looking. Small boobs are just my aesthetic. Now I have my 21 year old boobs forever!

They look great! Nice size & look so natural !
Your pic is actually making me think I may be dropping too much too fast :( I don't look as perky as you do
Did you get an anchor lift as well?? I can't remember.
No I don't know what it would be considered but he cut off the excess skin at the bottom of my breast so that he could pull the skin tight when he stiched me closed & I wouldn't have saggy skin at the bottom. He & 2 other ps's had told me I didn't need a traditional lift because when my implant was pushed up to where it was supposed to be my nipple position was good. I'm fine with how they are right now as long as they don't get any more droopie....fingers crossed
Oh girl I wouldn't worry then! I had a full lift plus this is the first unders ive had so mine are for sure gonna start up higher! I'm sure they will drop more!

Still with lots of bandages and pardon the bloat!! The after (left) was taken about a week post op. I am about 2.5 weeks post now and they are already changing shape. I'll try to take some more soon.

You look great!! Nice & perky! Isn't it crazy how much they change from one day to the next? I have tons of boob pics on my phone right now lol I love comparing them as they heal.
It IS crazy! I'm stoked because mine are starting to come together in the middle more. I'm scared to lose too much upper pole though. I keep wishing it will stay and not drop too much
That's great!! Upper pole fullness is something I evaluate every single time I look at them lol as if they're gonna drop from 1 hour to the next. I'm a nut!! But that's definitely a fear of mine. I just want them to stay put!!
Ahhh this app totally cut off my last comment to you! I feel the same way. I am consistently peeking down my shirt to "check if it's still there" hahaha. I hope ours both stay put and only get more amazing from here on out! :) I'm so excited to re-try on all my clothes but sadly have to wait at least 2 more weeks. Did your doc give any indication when you're allowed to move your arms yet?
No. He didn't even give me that specific restriction. He literally told me to try and do as much of nothing as possible. I've been trying to follow your dr's guidelines as much as possible. I don't stretch my arms up in the air or anything like that but there have been times when I've lifted my arms like to open my freezer or something like that. I'm hoping doing it here & there doesn't effect my results. The arm restriction is the hardest one for me. I'm trying so hard though.
Have you been able to follow the restrictions to the letter or have you caught yourself doing things you shouldn't?

i read comments on here from other dr's who think what is done during surgery is what matters most & in my case I hope that's true!!
I've mostly been following them. There have been a few times where I'll forget and reach out and also I can tell when I over do because I'll start to get in a lot of pain. But my doc told me it's super important to be patient and limit because of how invasive the surgery was. My main concern is like somehow ripping out the inner sutures and having my boobs roll back toward my armpits again. That would be my worst nightmare! Haha anyway. I'm sure doing it here and there isn't going to affect anything much if we are predominately good!
