New photos!
It has been awhile and I thought I would update this with some new photos since I am about 9 months in.
I absolutely love, love, love my new breasts! The old were sweet and cute, but these babies give me the sex appeal I have always wanted. They are soft, squishy, and they look amazing in anything I wear! My confidence has gone through the roof and I am finally wearing the clothes I have always dreamed of! No regrets... except I wish I did this sooner!
Just remember, they will change, change and change some more! I ordered my wedding dress in October and it arrived in late November...even from that time which I gave measurements, I STILL dropped!
Here's to happy boobs for all!
3 months post op!
haha..I spelled hello as hellow at first (love when our brains poop out)
I had my 3 month check up today and am I ever so excited! I have been cleared to wear any bra! YAY! First thing I did was run home and put on my pretty VS bra! If you have been reading since the start, this was my dream look bra that my mister and I filled with rice. It was the ultimate look I was going for! Guess what...it fits PERFECTLY! The cups are filled out nicely and the gore sits flat against my chest (the part of the underwire that is between the cleavage)
For those of you, keep that in mind when purchasing new bras...if that part does not sit flat, you have an ill-fitting bra. We paid a lot of money for these new ladies, the least we can do is support them well :)
And, for those of you just starting on your journey, I will say it once and I'll say it again... find the LOOK you are going for! Don't get so caught up in cc or cup size. I think the best thing was going out and buying a bra and filling that puppy with rice. I could then really figure out how I wanted to look. Also, pictures, pictures, pictures! See some boobs you like? take them to your PS!
Lastly...trust your PS! We might read stories, be on forums and think we know everything about a BA, but we don't. Pay attention to all instructions and enjoy the journey :)
Here are a few photos.

**UPDATE w/ PHOTOS** 12 weeks post-op 495 HP sientra smooth, round, unders
This is going to be short and sweet since I have a bedroom that I have been trying to paint for about ...6 weeks? Boobs got in the way of that. :P
Pain: Pretty much none. There might be a little sharp zinger every now and then, but for the most part, I am feeling great!
There is no tightness anymore, except for right when I wake up, but that subsides when I am up for about 5 minutes and get my massages done.
The bottom portion of my breast is still a little numb, but that is to be expected with how slow the process of nerve regeneration is.
All normal activites are back including rock climbing and I ran a 5k the other day! ( I love the VS incredible sports bra for high-impact activities) It does feel a little weird to use my arms like I did before since I can feel the implant a bit when I flex, but I try to not let it bother me! I have not gotten back into weight lifting, but I am sure I will soon when I am more comfortable. I still have yet to purchase any underwire bras...I am not quite sure when I can wear them, so I am waiting for now. I AM SO EXCITED TO BUY BRAS THAT A LITTLE GIRL DOES NOT WEAR. waaahooooo. Literally...I mean the juniors department lol!
They are becoming ULTRA squishy and I can move them all around. Sleeping with no bra feels great, too!
Pictures I have uploaded are one at 6 weeks and the next three are all at 12 weeks post op. Proof that they will change and heal! Slowly...but it does happen!
Happy healing, all!
Provider Review
I really can't say enough great things about Dr. Hoffman. From being incredibly thorough and knowledgeable in the field he works in, to having an amazing bedside manner. He made sure I was aware of what was going on during the entire process. He is truly a very skilled man at what he does. His staff was straight to the point, like him, and very kind. His office was very comfortable and I feel like the entire staff cares about my wellbeing. Like my journey says...one consult only and I was set on him! Plastic surgery is something that we come in dreaming about looking a certain way. While he gave me exactly what I wanted, he was sure to do it in a way that lead me down the right path of doing what I wanted, while still keeping my anatomy and what works with it at the top of the list. I feel as thought I had one of the best experiences ever. If you are in the MN area, or are willing to travel, I strongly suggest to check out his website and see his work then set up a consult. You will not be disappointed!
