I feel great. It's 3 months post op, I finally sleep with my arms over my head or on my side, I have been doing moderate exercise (although not much jogging) and weight lifting, and my boobs are soft. There is very little discomfort or pain, although sometimes when I wake up they feel swollen or if I lift something too heavy or try to use my chest muscles I can still feel my stitches pull.

I can tell a difference from the lipo underneath my arms and I'm super glad I did it.
My scars are healing well, too.

Finding bras has been a challenge, but a few people thought I went down n size- when in reality I went up. It's amazing how the right profile of breast implant can make you look so much better!

I LOVE my boobs! So glad I did this!

thank you! the lipo was super easy, actually. i think it contributed to some of the issues with my range of motion and issues with exercise, but it was worth it, especially since he didnt have to make any other incisions. hope all is well with you!

Hi Karen. You look great! Scars are almost gone at 3 months! Yea! I had internal stitches too and feel the same pulling and swelling with exercise too. I'm at 6 weeks and hope by three months I can do everything again. Well... Maybe not kettle bell swings:-))

I started working out Sunday. Light cardio and bicep curls. Yesterday (Monday) I did cardio in the morning and tried to jog but freaked out. My boobs were moving a lot and I started having the pinching, needle-like pain in between my breasts like I used to have before my surgery. My breasts seem more firm not afterwards and I still have the soreness in the cleavage area.

Anyone know if this is because of the internal bra stitches? Is it still too soon to workout?

Also, my left breast is starting to look like its sitting higher than my right breast, which is how my old implants started.

Should I be worried?

I have been working sense day 11 and I lift and carry a lot . I'm on the go non stop for 7 hrs I waitress and I wait on 45 to 50 or more over and over again all day and I have t had a problem . But we all heal different so maybe you should t work your upper body yet . Your muscle might be to tight . It might take more time for it to drop . Don't worry yet its still early . You look beautiful !

Your surgeon did great.You can't even tell that your nipples were cut around and sewn to a new area. I am so impressed. I hope mu surgeon's marks look as good as yours.

I am really interested in your armpit lipo. How much did that cost?

It was an additional $900, pretty good price because I was essentially having surgery on the same area & didn't have to pay for additional anesthesia. He did not have to make any additional incisions, which was a pleasant surprise. It drastically improved the shape of my breasts and I've been happy with my decision to have it; however, I've gained some weight and it's come back some. Hope this helps! Highly recommend it though.
