I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while.
About a month ago I went in to see Dr Frati for my 3 month appointment (was actually at 4 months but the first appointment that was available as he's in high demand). He seemed happy, but then got me to lay down, where he squeezed my boobs and discovered the start of Capsular Contracture :( This is where the body rejects the implant and starts to form a hard layer of scar tissue around it. He squeezed so hard and 'broke' the scar tissue, it was disgusting - I could physically hear a pop and thought my implant had popped, even though I know that isn't even possible! I was advised to massage my boobs twice a day for 15 minutes to break the scar tissue down. It hurt so much, I left and burst into tears and had to take some nurofen.
It hurt for a few days afterwards, was a bit tender... but it's ok. Whats worrying is that I hadnt realised anything was wrong. I have been massaging now... but I feel like I am going to book another appointment to check all is ok.
Other than that, everything has been going well - I have been enjoying them a lot! They are still much bigger than I think I had thought they'd be... but I'm getting used to them! I've attached two pics of how they were at 4 months.

Can't remember ever not having them to be honest. But at the same time, think I had them done at the right time of year. Allowed me to get used to them before being out on show in summer!

Congratulations on your surgery... They look great....I am looking at getting 500 cc's.... What height and weight are you if you don't mind my asking.... I've found that to beer most helpful with sizing and what it will look like

I finally feel more comfortable with my boobs - no more pain and I'm getting a lot of feeling back. It no longer hurts to lay on my side (not that I would sleep all night like that, but it's very nice to do!) I feel a little more human in general but missing being active. I'm really looking forward to my checkup with Mya tomorrow and getting into normal bras and back to exercise!

Congratulations on your girls, your result is so natural really amazing, if you don't mind me saying it looks as though you had an uplift, is that because of the type of implant your surgeon used?, what profile are they? Hope you don't mind me asking I'm considering maybe going for high profile instead of moderate plus especially after seeing how natural more projection and fullness look
