Happy with results, been back for check up an surgeon wants me to stay in sportsbra another 3/4 weeks! Skin is still tight and he said will soften and change shape. I did try have a bra fitting the other day and it just stressed me out! Nothing fit right but if shape is still changing as he said I will try again next month. Overall I am very happy with size, scars etc. Just glad to have those heavy silicone bags out!!!

Dressings off! Still sore but not to bad. my boobs feel bigger than when first had op? Has anyone else found this? I know I'm still swollen but thought they would go smaller not bigger?

Great results, you must be so happy with your lovely natural boobies back! I cannot wait to get my implants out!!

Oh wow everything looks amazing you must be thrilled with your results :)
I had my consultation yesterday and I am going to go ahead with the surgery hopefully soon I am still deciding on a lift or not but seeing your results is really pushing me to go ahead and get it all done at once.
You look great and hope you are feeling much better too :)

Really pleased upto now, think I have been very luck very little bruising. Right side still not healed as well as left . Had dressing changed for the first time yesterday and got to have a look. Still tiny bit of blood on right dressing this morn but could just be from having it cleaned and redressed yesterday . Feeling much better not as tired and pain is minimal to none last few days, it's mainly uncomfortable when moving about.

You look amazing well done and thank you so much for sharing your story. I am now beginning my journey to explanting. I look very like your picture with the implants and if I had your outcome I would be so so happy. Do you also have a lift at the same time as removal of the implants?
Also do you mind sharing the cost thank you so much and hope your feeling much better now and that you are happy with your decision :)

Hi, I did have an uplift at the same time and thank you. I got a 10% discount because it was my second op with transform but the cost was still £6200. I wanted a particular surgeon so I feel it was money well spent : o )

Thank you for the info...you must be thrilled as you have got an amazing result. I am actually going to look at Transform now after seeing your outcome. I am in Ireland though so I will look in Northern Ireland. I am so scared of the pain from the breast lift but I think in the long run it is the best option to have it all one at the one time instead of just explanting and then regretting not have them lifted.

I'm glad I did it all in one, I just didn't want to go through recovering twice! I want to get on with my life now and not be thinking about my breasts all the time. I still don't feel like me or that they are mine but I think it's because I'm still recovering . The nurse that took my first dressing off was on loan from a transform clinic in Ireland. She was lovely , hope all goes well for you I'm sure it will, I am very happy albeit a bit run down at the min!

Yes I know what you mean I feel just go for it while your doing it the first time as I know I will regret not having a lift afterwards as I will be back to my old saggy breasts I had before.
I was a full B before and went to a full D cup with implants. I would be happy to be back at the full B but do you feel the breasts go smaller after a lift?
Sorry for asking all these questions ha I just love your look and feel your before pics match mine so close :)
Do you have feeling in the breast?
Hopefully your only feeling that way because you are still recovering as you said.
Hope your feeling better soon it is a lot to go through these surgeries it takes a lot from us both physically and emotionally. Happy continued healing :)

Hi
I was a b cup also before and went to a DD!! I really don't know what size I will eventually be but I'm hoping I will be back at a b cup, at the min I'm in a c but I have been told it take a few months for swelling to go. I have feeling ok in left breast but the right I still have no nipple sensation, it seems to react to cold but I can't feel any thing on the actual nipple, to be honest I have a feeling it may stay like that but that is the side taking longer to heal so i may be lucky and it will come back eventually. I am at the I'm glad they didn't fall off stage still so not to upset at the min. I have been very uncomfortable the few days and really just want take bra off its driving me crazy but I have to be patient!! Still have no energy : o (

Fingers crossed you get back the sensation back int he right side. Thanks so much for the information and I hope your feeling much better today. I am dreading the recovery period....do you feel this pain/recovery time is much worse than the original augmentation? I flew through that but I am thinking the the lift may be much more invasive.
September 12, 2016
Hi
I flew through the augmentation to but yes the recovery from the lift is def harder! I am still on and off with pain at the min, it's not terrible had a bad night last night but I think it's more to do with sleeping practical sat up!! Omg my butt hurts like I have been on a plane for days!! This is worse than the pain in my boobs!!! Feeling a bit better this morn I have accually got dressed!!! I think I am healing pretty well though dressing should be completely removed by Wednesday so I can shower, I am sooooo looking forward to that!!

Oh you poor thing its awful isnt it trying to sleep upright. I also had an abdominoplasty so I really can relate to that pain in your butt. I found that the neck cushion you use for traveling was great to sit on in the bed as your tailbone could peek through therefore leaving you with less pressure pains in that area. Maybe you could try that and hopefully get better sleep tonight :)
Are you two weeks out from your surgery now? I wonder how long I would need to take from work and the gym?
Well enjoy your shower tomorrow you will feel like a new woman after that :)
Hope your sleep improves and you continue to heal well
