I Had a Blast but it's time for them to GO! - Treasure Coast, FL

Just wanted to give an update on my recovery. So far, it's going well. However, back in January, I felt firm, mass like areas in my left breast and it felt completely different from my right breast. Oh course, I was scared with thoughts of cancer and had my doctor check it out immediately! After a mammogram and ultrasound, I was told that it was a loose chest muscle that I was feeling and but everything else looked normal. Physical therapy was also advised. I guess that happened during the augmentation procedure. My left breast always felt tighter and sat up higher than the left. It all makes sense now.

Other than that, everything is ok. I did decide to get my nipples pierced this week. I tend to do spontaneous things every now and then.

Here's a few updated pictures. I'll try to do an update again around the six month mark.

Happy healing!

I'm not sure why I wasn't able to add more pictures to the last post... Here's what they look like now.

Hello everyone,

It's been pretty hectic with the holidays so I haven't had the chance to do a weekly update. Last Tuesday I had my post op visit with my surgeon. He removed the bandages and said I was good to go and that he will follow up with me in four months. Ecstatic, I gave him and the entire staff hugs and thank you.

Fast forward to today. My boobies look awesome. I have no pain or discomfort. It's like I never I had the procedure done. I've started putting kelo-cote scar treatment on my incisions to help minimize the scar.

I noticed I have a lot of breast volume after Explant so I decided to get sized at Victoria's Secret. Man did I give that poor lady a fit. She pulled out a D cup and said well Hun, you have a lot of breasts. LOL! I just couldn't wrap my head around being a D cup after Explant. I was thinking I was still a B cup in my head. I told her maybe I'm still swollen, let's try a C cup bra. In the end, my current bra size is a 38C. I'm ok with that :-)

I'll try to update weekly but I go back to work tomorrow and I have finals this week. I'll be graduating in December with my Bachelors so I'm super excited. Also, I start my weight loss journey tomorrow. I'm hoping to not lose so much volume in the breast area but then again, weight gain is what gave breast in the first place. Cest la vie!!! :-)
