34 Yr. Old, Mother of 2....Breast Lift W/ 300cc Saline Implants. West Orange, NJ

When I was pregnant with my 1st child my breast size went from a 36D to a 38F. After I lost my weight I dropped to a saggy 36C, which only got worse after my 2nd child. After years of consideration I finally decided to go ahead and get a lift with implants. Originally I was thinking silicone, but my surgeon recommended saline, since I had so much extra skin from being so large at one point he said he had more flexibility filling the saline implants so that's what I went with. I ended up having an anchor lift with 300cc saline implants under the muscle. When you wake up from surgery your chest feels extremely heavy, you will feel that pressure for a few days but it goes away a little more each day. I needed pain killers for 4 days, it's more uncomfortable than actual pain. Sleeping was not fun the first two weeks, I felt like a vampire propped up on several pillows practically sleeping sitting up just to feel good. I was so swollen the first 10 days and couldn't drive. But the swelling just like the chest pressure go away each day. All my stitches were removed by week 2 and im still healing at week 4 with scabs still falling off the scars. I must say I feel great and love my new boobs. I know I still have a long way to go, but so far so good.

Here is a pic 5 weeks post op. Their healing great, getting softer every day. Next week I'll post some side shots with better pictures.

Today I'm 6 weeks post op. Just a few more dissolvable stitches are left, but otherwise I feel great, breasts continually get softer & settle. Best part is I can finally sleep on my side comfortably. Time to go bra shopping, something I never used to be excited for :)
