Blah! That's all I got! Ha! Saw dr last Sat and he whole heatedly agreed the right one is too far over the medial line. I'm just confused as to how he didn't see this during my surgery to have those issues fixed? He seems think that's where the pocket always was (no kidding) and that now with the larger/wider silicon implants, it exaggerated the placement of the pocket and its now more noticeable. I agree but still shouldn't that have been seen pre-op/during surgery? Either way it's pretty significant but can be fixed. And WILL be fixed. When tho? Soooo much life drama right now n my boobs are low on my list of things that are important or matter. I've had better months ladies, trust me. :(
Anyway, nothing else to say. I'll keep u posted if anything exciting happens, if not i hope all my boobie friends are doing good & enjoying their new "girls" ;)

Well. Wow. Exactly why I've been avoiding my camera. My breasts look..not right. clearly not symmetrical. Nothing is fixed really. They looked better a few days PO. I'm depressed & sickened. All the money and time & pain...for nothing. I guess having nice boobs is too much to ask for. Unsure what can be done. Not one cup size bigger, The right is weird shaped& smaller & its too close to the medial line & the nipple is still lower. All things I believe I paid for to have fixed. All I got is softer boobs really. When I have a bra on, you can see the cleavage line isn't a straight up/down line. It's more like a ". / " if that makes sense. Its weird n the pics dont really show it. I'm just sickened that I thought I'd be done & would love this decision. If this was my 1st revision, I'd get it...but it's not. UGH. Not fair. ;( Whatever. I realllllllly wish I didn't care. But I do.

In the one pic I can see a difference in your breasts. Let me know how tomorrow goes. You said you are meeting with your doctor right? Check out Dr. Hankins he's rated really well. Dr. Pousti would have been my second choice but he actually has a LOT of pics of XL implants I don't like. I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much for the revision. I know you hate to go through another revise but maybe your doctor will do it free and get some better results?
Do you miss your old boobs or is this an improvement for you at all?
I am soooo sorry you are unhappy. How are all the other surgeries?
February 12, 2013
No, I don't go back til Feb 23rd. If I get my way, I'd like MY LAST & FINAL revision done in may somtime. What ru thoughts? What are u seeing with my pics? I'm looking for honestly to help support my own thoughts...lol
February 12, 2013
Check out my tummy tuck / lipo review I updated there to. Or bitched is more like it. I can't win. It's the truth!;(
February 12, 2013
Ok, I just looked at ur pics, yes I do see what ur talkn about, he's gonna have to fix that, we got to keep our heads up tho! But I feel you!
February 12, 2013
I see what you are talking about... And I'm so sorry you are in this situation. I think we are both a bit stuck in regret---I completely relate to everything you wrote in your last update and I am also reeling from the idea that I thought I would be in great shape right now and the opposite is true. Will you go back to the same surgeon?
February 19, 2013
hey swift...Yea...I paid more than I should have for this revision/exchange. I feel he needs to correct them. I go Sat so we will see what he says. Im prepared to leave in tears......
February 12, 2013
What did your PS say?! I think if we are spending $6K we should be blown away by the results. My PS has some things to 'fix' on me too ... Keep us posted please!!!
February 19, 2013
well i go Sat the 23rd.....we shall see. I hoping he see's what i see. Which is obvious.....I mean, really? They are NOT the same. Hence the reason why i wanted him to fix em......Ugh
February 15, 2013
Whoa! Sorry you are going thru this love. What does your PS have to say about this? Why didn't he fix nipples in revision? Crazy.
February 19, 2013
Bootie, I go Sat. I have a list.....I just know that he will make it seem like im being too hard on myself. I mean, really. The WHOLE reason, the sole purpose of him touching my breasts, were to FIX THEM. Its So sad. I will be strong and voice my opion. If I have my way I will have a revison in May, exchange them for a HP or UHP 750-800 and have the pocket fixed on the right side. Fingers crossed. I am, not NOT nuts, right??? They arent symertical, right??? They are clearly not the same??? lol

Just checking in as my insomnia is in full force. I ended up"asking the doctors" here w/pics & I feel a little better hearing their replies. Don't get me wrong there a BBIIGG improvement from before & I'm thankful but honestly my issue is that my old ones were only 3 yes old. The ONLY reason why I exchanged then was to increase a cup size. Apparently my calc of 150cc = 1cup was WAY off. You'd think a 700cc mid profile would result in more than a D cup on my 5'5 130 frame. I have a natural look now which I kinda don't care for lol! I miss the upper pole fullness ALOT! I really think my PS should have suggested a HP or even the ultra HP instead at the same volume or maybe 750. I'm going to see what he says Sat & if I get my way, ill be back late spring for yet another swap hopefully at no charge to me.(I've spent enough there) maybe I'm crazy but I really want what I want. Posting more pix in a few days too see what an addtnl few days may have brought!
Hope all my boobie friends are well & flaunting there new additions!! ;)
Hugs! Lynn

Hey Lynn,
So I went to talk to my doctor yesterday and exchaning my sili for o/f saline and not only did he act completely oblivious to that happening he said he won't do it because it's not anatomically correct. I will you MUCH luck tomorrow. Maybe your PS will be more inclined to do the 750 but honestly I don't know if youre going to see much of a difference. Please don't get your heart set on that. Going up by 50 or even 100cc is only a few tablespoons. Like I mentioned, I have the UHP and they are NOT big enough on my 5'6, 125lb frame. I want to make sure you don't do this for nothing! Have you thought of maybe asking him to go back to saline and just go larger that way? What did the docs here say about your breasts being close?
Keep me updated! I got quotes from 3000-10000 for the revision. Pousti said 7500 and Revis said 10k. I got the OK from my husband and am going to schedule for April. Dr. Hankins in LV said 6500. I am still waiting on quotes from a few others but I am pretty sure it's either Hankins or Pousti for me. Good luck again! I'll be on the lookout tomorrow for you.
February 4, 2013
Sorry to hear about the Dr visit ;( how disappointing. It sucks when they play dumb & act like your concerns are petty. I'm excited for u on the quotes tho!! ;) If I lived closer, I would have def seen Pousti!
My visit was ok. He told me he was shocked that I'm able to pull off 700's! He said that he needs to get out of that frame of mind & be more open to requests like mine. He told me he was also expecting me to be bigger than what I was, and that doing a HP or UPH may or may not do the trick. He was very open to my concerns and said that if I can wait a few months he'd consider me going to 750 or 800 HP. I can wait. No rush just wish I would have chosen bigger from the get go. I went out last night & wore an old bra and it is a little but tighter then before but it's prob still residual swelling. They are super soft & I'm loving that! My friend who I went out with poked at them & was like WOW Lynn you can't even tell there's an implant there! Lol she also couldn't believe I was at 700! She said I thought u'd be way bigger! Note to everyone 550 to 700 does NOT = 1cup size bigger. Lol
February 4, 2013
Thanks for your response. I've been thinking about you!! Just remember that 750 or 800 is only a few tablespoons. I don't want you to get let down.
I will probably go with Hankins. He's closer, he's in Vegas, he quoted me 2k less than pousti and he comes very highly recommended.
I just made 1200cc rice sizers and I love them!!!!
Did your doc say anything about them being close together?
February 4, 2013
He said they are a little to close but I shouldn't worry bout symassia or whatever it's called. I'm thinking the HP with open that up a little and the projection will push me over the top into the next size. He says they look natural now..I agree and I don't like it lol
February 4, 2013
Hmmm. I hear a lot of girls say they don't like natural. They actually make me feel like I am overweight for some reason and I start to feel like I have cow udders instead of boobs! Haha. They are just so soft and floppy. Some women love them though!!!!!
So a few months huh? These rice sizers are great!
February 10, 2013
Anything new with you? I scheduled my revision...my boobs seem to get worse daily :( How are you doing?
February 11, 2013
Hey lady!!! I was going to take pics this weekend but like always, i lost track of time and when I did think of it, I was comfie and lazy! lol The right one is still not the same shape and the pocket is closer to the medial line...which was part of the issue to begin with,he obvsiulsy didnt repair that. I still feel they are too close, however, Ive gotten a few compliments from friends, saying they look fuller and more natural (with clothes on) Really, the only benefit thus far is they are soft and feel like real breast tissue. WHen is your re-revision set for??? What profile/cc overfill are you going for??
February 12, 2013
Aww! I'd love to see some new pics, maybe they have changed! Definitely with silicone you get SOFT you just don't get much for size. I'm glad your friends have been nice to you!!!
Im set for May 8. No idea on profile or cc though it will be AT LEAST 1000 and I am hoping more for 1200 or 1300 (ok 1300). I don't meet with Dr. H until May 6 so it's hard to determine anything else. Gives me something to do haha.
Let me see some pics!!!
