No Regrets!!!
$6,400
Well I can't believe it's been almost four months since surgery. My breasts are "where they are" now. They have completely softened back up, have 100% sensitivity and no pain. The scars are visible but I expected this. The underside are the darkest. I have purchased bras that I love, 34c. I bought and wore a sundress without a bra! The girls are perky and I LOVE it! Everything is easier with way less breast! No regrets!! Would recommend Dr. Studinger for sure!

The moment of truth!
Today was my post op checkup. My Dr is pleased with the results, and I got my first good look with her. I have normal range of swelling and now very green bruising on their way to being gone. I will now begin massaging, very gently, with Arnica Cream twice a day. I can drive small amounts...I have range of motion exercises to lift arms gently to the sides, regaining slowly lost mobility from a week of non-use/very limited use. I will still not lift anything much. I will continue to sleep in my cozy recliner for another few weeks, then slowly transition back to bed but remain back only sleeping for another five weeks.
Second follow up in 10 days! Ok, now he pics! It's kinda scary to see myself like this but reality is what it is!

You look fantastic!
Thank you so appreciated!
Looking great!
Looks great! Curious to know how it's going for you now that a couple more months have passed. I've got similar stats (but not as slender!) & I'd like a B cup I think. Appreciate any updates as to how you feel about the outcome. Thanks!
You look great!
You look great! Looking forward to your final result. I had BR surgery Dec 18 and wanted to go from DDD to a B, but he only took out 230 and I don't think I'm going to be where I want to be. :( still swollen so I'm giving it a little more time. Fingers Crossed!

Well, it's done! Here's my update! The Dr was not able to remove 440 grams from both sides. She was most concerned with maintaining a healthy viable breast tissue. About 350+ from one side and close to 400 from other side. If your Dr has your best interest in mind, they will be conservative in surgery! I am feeling good, only used prescription painkillers thru day two post op. I am taking 800 mg Motrin every 6 hrs, took a Benadryl last night (Dr okay'ed) to sleep through the night. My biggest complaint is back sore from sitting upright 24/7! Tiger balm and ice packs for my back are a big help. I am super anxious to see where I end up, but looking like a nice, perky C cup! My areoles was made smaller. My nipples are reacting and do not have the "flat" look I have seen in many pics. I believe this is because my Dr was most concerned with the nipple pedicle! Be sure to ask these questions! I love my nipples and was willing to have less tissue removed to protect the nipple viability! I'll add a few pics later not feeling up to getting them out just yet!

Congrats on your surgery! We should both post pics in a week or two! Thanks for the updates.
Yes! How are you doing? How is the recovery?
Overall I think I'm doing great. I go in tommorow to have the drains removed and get to finally shower! I will have my husband take some pictures after the drain removal. I like what I can see when I peak in the binder and am looking forward to having my clothes hang looser in the front:)
Awesome news! The first shower feels amazing!! I can't believe I have perky breasts again!!! I feel like a teenager!
Hi I was wondering did you get breast lift with implants???
Reduction mammoplasty.
Me too...:)
Congrats! Can't wait to see the "afters!"
