6 month update
I’m loving my new small look and the way I look in shirts. I should have done this a long time ago. At 3 months I couldn’t take the cheap bras anymore and went to Dillard’s to get measured. I went from a pre BA of 32A to now a 32C. The lady asked what I didn’t like about the bras and I poked the side/back boob fat and said this! It was depressing to see it hanging over the top but I purchased 2 bras that I really like. I’m happy to report the side/back boob fat has gotten a little better and I don’t notice it as much anymore. I did loose a few pounds so maybe that helped too.
I don’t have any zinger pains anymore which is great. My arm only gets numb every once in a while when I’m using the mouse at work so it’s a lot better.
I recently took advantage of the VS sale and bought some new swim suits and a few more bras all in a 32C. I think I shrank in the upper pole part so I could use a fluff fairy to swing by and help me out.
I’m not sure if the Mepitac silicone scar tape helped or not. I wore it over 9 weeks everyday/all day until I just got tired of it. My scars look pretty great but I can’t say if it was the tape or just time.

6 weeks update
I forgot to say before that my 2 sets of implants were under the muscle so I thought I would add that.
I was swollen for a full 3 weeks and then just like that it went away. I went from a tight 34 small Hanes bra to a very loose band. Now all of the tight bralette things i have fit pretty loose. I will wait until 3 months before I purchase nice bras, just to see if I shrink any more.
I still have a few zinger pains mostly on the left side but they are gone pretty quickly so it's not too bad. Dr said I could work out after 6 weeks and I took a yoga class yesterday. I'm a little sore today but not too bad. I'm hoping to get rid of the little side boob fat I have going on. We will see.
Today I started using the Mepitac silicone tape I got on Amazon for $14.00. Some other ladies on here had good reviews about it so I thought I would test it out. I'll let you ladies know how that works when I post more pics.
My one tip would be to stretch your arms before they strap them down before surgery. I think that was the worst part was my left arm pain from being strapped down. I'm not 100% sure stretching would have helped but it's worth a try. The pain in my left arm is a lot better now but still goes numb when I stretch it straight out like it was strapped down. I guess maybe I stretched a nerve or something.

2 week photo update
Well it's been 2 weeks today and i'm doing pretty good. I don't really have any pain except if I stretch my arms out too far to reach for something and maybe some quick second nerve pain here and there. I assume its nerve pain. My right breast has always been a little bigger than my left but i really don't even notice it much until I see it in photos. Yikes! My husband says he can't tell. Luckily when my husband is looking he's not measuring for symmetry so I guess it's no big deal. I have read other ladies on here say they have the same problem so that makes me feel a little better. I am very pleased so far. I am assuming I will shrink up some but I haven't really been wearing a bra consistently so maybe that's why I still look the same. I am still trying these cheap, stretchy 6.00 Walmart bralette bras but I can't make it through the day without taking it off because it irritates my incisions underneath. I just wear a scarf and no one notices. My drain holes underneath my incisions are healing pretty good. I will try to update more photos as time goes on. Good luck to all the ladies that are going to go through this!!!
