So I've been looking a lot on RealSelf and actually had a panic attack. So I emailed Dr Pousti and we talked 3 days later. We had discussed my goals and agreed that I actually need a mastopexy lift with smaller implants to obtain upper fullness. So sometimes it's possible to do too much RealSelf research. I started to see people who had a lift (mastopexy) and implants and they were infected and losing their nipples. But I talked to dr and he made me feel better. He explained to me that there are lots plastic surgeons that only do a couple of mastopexy a year and of course if you don't practice your skill you will be subpar. Also, we don't know anything about those women who had that operation and how healthy they are. He also said to me that he does mastopexy on a regular basis. So now I'm ready. Operation is April 5, 2017.
Second times a charm (I hope)

So at my 3 month post op and before that I realized my breasts don't look at all what I wanted. But I don't want to harp on that anymore. To make a long story shorter. I've had emails and discussions with Dr.Pousti and I'm going back in April for another breast revision. My breast now are way!! too low and OMG what's with the huge side boob. And holy cow these things are heavy. No wonder they are sagging down to my belly button. I'm having trouble finding bras that fit the lowness of my boobs without slipping out the top. I always have to lift up my boob to get it to fit in a bra if not it hangs under neath it. So during our discussion we discussed what he will do but of course things will be finalized when I do my pre-op. We discussed that I want upper poll fullness so probably doing a Bellini lift or any another type of lift (which I do not have issue with since my scars seem to fade fast.) Maybe bigger implants BUT I'm really not sure I want the extra weight. And I've decided I want the fake look. I mean I want the look of grapefruit coming out of my chest. Because I find with my body type bigger boobs with no upper pole fullness just makes me look fat. I need definition. Depending what I wear it just looks like my stomach starts where my boobs hang to and goes down to my hips. So I'm holding my breath hoping things will go better the second time around. And this time so there are no questions about what I want, I am doing a boobie board like what other people have done. I don't want to wake up discouraged again.

Well I'm just past my 2 month post op. Well they are bigger then before surgery. It's funny they kinda look like how they were when I was nursing my first kid. That's actually sad not funny. I am still pretty discouraged about my breast augmentation. They seem very low and too similar to what I had previous to BA. They look nice when I squish them in a sports bra but I was hoping they would look nice on their own and not having to hide them. But I'm still waiting for my 3rd month miracle!!!
