First post-op update!
I had my tuberous breast correction surgery on July 17th as planned. The surgery went well, though I was really scared of anesthesia. My surgeon and I had chosen 290cc, high profile, but because I had asked for a natural result, during the surgery she downsized me to 265cc, as it would prevent certain specific details I did not want.
The first week of recovery has been awful. Not because of the pain, since it's been pretty much painless, only uncomfortable, but because all the meds I've had to take post-op messed up my stomach. I threw up multiple times and have been in a lot of pain. Thankfully, I don't need to take those meds anymore, so things should be better now.
I finally got to see my boobs without tape today! When I looked at myself in the mirror I felt very, very happy with the results. Things have not fully 'settled' yet, so I still have to wait for a couple of months, but I know that the girls are headed in the right direction.
The only thing that bothered me a bit was comparing myself to other people (silly, I know). Looking at other people's post-op pictures made me wonder if I should have gone bigger after all. But the truth is that, at least for me, that is only a mental trap that comes from my obsession with my "plank chest" through the years. To be honest, before the surgery and except for the combination of size and shape of my breasts, I felt very happy with my body. I wore an extra padded bralette for months and felt really good. That helped me decide on the sizing, as I felt like that was perfect for me, and I wished I could have that size and shape 24/7 haha. My post-op boobs are still considerably bigger than what that bralette did for me, so if I erase those other pictures in my mind, I think this size is really good for me.
I will be updating with pictures as weeks go by... I can't wait to buy new lingerie and cute clothes!

Farewell, Tuberous Boobies!
Hello there!
I can’t believe I’m typing this, but after considering it for about 10 years, I have finally made my appointment to get my tuberous breasts corrective surgery on July 17th. So, the countdown has already started for me!
I will be sharing my process here, since when I was looking for testimonies, it was really hard for me to find similar cases to mine. I thought that maybe posting about it would help others who are in my situation.
I want to especially focus on the mental side of the surgery, which is also something that worries me a lot because I have struggled with my body image in the past (a lot of it came from my breasts, though). The type of questions that keep coming to my head are: “How am I gonna feel about having two foreign objects in my body?” “Will I get any sort of ‘impostor’s syndrome for having ‘fake boobs’?” “Will it be hard for me to get used to the changes in my body frame?” “Will I feel guilty of modifying a part of my body that other than the unusual look had nothing wrong with it to begin with?”
A bit about me and the procedure:
- I’m 28 years old. Never been pregnant.
- I weigh 117 lbs (53 kg), though I did lose 50lbs (23kg) some years ago.
- My height is 5.3 ft (161 cm).
- The procedure consists of basically reshaping both breasts, by creating a "pocket" or fold, and releasing the breasts' constrictions. Then, implants will be placed to give more volume.
Disclaimer: because I leave in South America, I will not be sharing the name of my surgeon (as most of you probably wouldn’t know them/be able to get a consultation with them anyways). But if you are from the area and are interested, feel free to write to me. What I can say is that if you have tuberous breasts and want to get them surgically corrected, you need to do extensive research. This is a difficult surgery that not just any surgeon can perform seamlessly. I have seen many cases that do not achieve optimum results because the surgeon was not experienced enough. If your gut tells you your doctor is not experienced or confident enough in his skills, please try to find someone else.
