My journey at 6mths post!
So I had my 6mth appointment mid Aug and hit 6mths on Aug 26. The doctor said everything was looking great. I personally think they look quite small and it doesnt look like I have 415cc, so that just goes to show that you will never know how they will end up until its all done. I thought by looking at hundreds of pictures and comparing to people that were roughly my size, that I knew how mine would turn out.....far from the truth! Even the nurse who took my picture came in and was like "oh so whatd you get? You went with the 345 or 365s????" And I was like "No I got 415cc!" And she said...."Ya I guess you can never really tell and you must have had little to no breast tissue." So to everyone.....dont get hung up on the number. If you get the same exact implant as someone on here because you like their pictures....chances are that yours will not look the same whatsoever and you won't even end up with the same bra size! Its confusing but thats just how it is lol.
So at 6mths I still have a weird sensation under my breasts where the incisions are. The skin still feels numb but then it also kind of gives off an irritating painful feeling as well. Same as my nipples. I do not like either areas touched! This was my main concern when seeing my doctor and he said that the nerves are the longest part of the process to heal and it could take up to 1 to 1 1/2 years. Fingers crossed everything does go back to normal. I was really worried about not having the same sensation in my nipples after this whole process and so far that is the most upsetting thing to get used to.
Looking back I think I would have been happier with the moderate profile instead of the high profile, which at the time I knew, but went with what my hubby wanted. I like a more "hangy" and "droopy" boob with very round lower pole if that makes sense. However with that said....I would have been upset to get anything less than 415cc because they are quite small and the largest moderate profile I could get was only 345cc. So I guess you have to compromise somewhere!
I do love having boobs though. Its great having more shape and being able to fill in shirts. However now the button up shirts are a little difficult to wear lol. I just wish they werent as far apart and I didnt have to work so much to get cleavage. I have to wear a really big pushup bra for any sort of cleavage....but I guess before surgery even if I did that I still didnt have cleavage, so should be blessed with what I have now! Its hard to go through this and not have high expectations for perfection. You really cant expect perfect breasts. Does that even exist???? What is perfect to someone, isnt perfect to the next, so just work with what you have and try not to dwell!
I had a trip to Mexico over the summer and it felt great to wear bikinis and not be jealous over every female with boobs because I actually have my own! Lol. And I have an upcoming trip to Vegas in Feb so Im already stock piling my wardrobe with some sexy tops!
Its a boob day!
Bras bras bras!
Going over my profile I noticed I don't have many bra pics, so here we go! I'm 4mths post op now. Size is still smaller than I envisioned so I like a good pushup/underwire especially the VS Very Sexy front closure. You all have to buy that!
Provider Review
Dr. Edelstein is a fantastic doctor. He is kind, professional and knowledgeable. His office is very accommodating. His extensive online photo gallery showed amazing results, which is the main reason why I booked with him, along with his countless positive reviews. His staff at the clinic and the nurses at the surgery center are very nice and helpful. I was very stuck on sizing so I would have liked a little more guidance between the 3 choices, but after all it was my ultimate decision. I am extremely satisfied with my results thus far. They are smaller than I imagined they would be, so if you are stuck on choosing a size, don't fret that they will be too large, because they most likely will end up smaller than what you are envisioning. My husband was disappointed they charged a fee for credit card payments, as he was planning on paying to receive credit card points, but the fee wasn't worth it, so that would be one of the only negatives. There was also a mix up when they called and left a message the night before my surgery and told me the wrong appointment time (an appt 3hrs later than I had booked), so that was a stressful time. Luckily I just still went with what I had booked and it indeed was my appointment, but had I went by what was left on my voicemail I would have missed my surgery entirely. All in all I would definitely recommend anyone to Dr Edelstein.
