So tell me what's your breast size?
September 23, 2015
According to Victoria Secrets in Manhattan I'm a 32D. However, the Victoria Secrets in Chicago measure me at a 32DD. Why? I have no idea. Lol

Because you are still dropping you might be trending closer to a 32dd ..

Wow!!! Lol.. I totally understand. Well as for me I measured myself like a month ago and I am a 36C. I really wish I was a little bit smaller because my Dr told me I would of been a full B I don't know. But next week when I hit Miami I will go into Victoria Secerts and find out. But Hun you don't even look like a 32DD you look way smaller. Your Dr did a great job on you.

Hey ladies, it's been a while. I don't have anything new to add. I haven;'t experienced much change since my last /post. One of my areolas is still a little longer than the other but it doesn't bother me that much. I'm just happy that my breast aren't saggy anymore. My breast are still healing and I think that I should give my skin time to fully heal. If things still look off by my 6 months post-op, I will most likely discuss a revision with Dr. H.

How are the rest of you ladies doing?

What is your breast regimen/maintenance?

What bras are you wearing? I wear sports bras during the day and my post surgical bra at night.

Hope all is well with everyone!

Wow-you really look great! I think they look better now than they did in your 2 months post op pics. Maybe that's due to the dropping and fluffing?? They lookore natural and perfect now. Dr H did a great job and it makes me even more confident in his work. I'm scheduled for a benelli lift in November with him and I think I'm in great hands! Even if you don't do the revision I think you look AMAZING!! I'm such a perfectionist and if I thought they didn't look great I wouldn't have posted ANY comment. My aerolas are not symmetrical and That is pre-op. I'll be happy if he can make them "match" better but I've never noticed they were asymmetrical until I "inspected" them a few days ago after reading your post. I was curious if aerolas, just like breasts, are not an exact match and sure enough mine are not. anyways, I just wanted to reach out to you and let you know that you look AMAZING!

They look amazing! I don't notice anything wrong with The Nipple s but of course we are all our own worst critics! My routine is just been to wear a sports braw all the time they're super comfy !!is there a benefit to wearing the surgical bra at night? Does it help with morning boob?
September 18, 2015
Thank you! I'm not sure if ther are any benefits but the surgical bra feels more secure to me. Not only that, but I feel more comfortable sleeping on my side when I have the surgical bra on. Also, I don't get morning boob at all. I get so comfortable that I am starting to sleep on my chest but I wake myself up because of my fear of damaging my boobs. Lol

If I was you I wouldn't change a thing. Not everyone is as fortunate like you. Your dr did an amazing job on you, I live it!!!
September 18, 2015
Thanks mama. I am grateful for the job he did and I do love my twins. I think I should just give them time to fully heal. Besides, I should consider that each side grows differently from the other.

I wear a bra with underwire during the day. I was worried it would bother my incisions but it doesn't. I still sleep in a sports bra or bralette. Keeping up with massage and Zi've been using silicone scar strips. I wear them at least 12 hours a day if not longer. By the way you look amazing!!!
September 18, 2015
Thanks! I used the scar away sheets to and loved how they worked. I'm afraid to wear any other kind of bra because my doctor said no push-ups or wire bras for at least a year. I understand the push-up restriction but I like my wired bras. It's so hard to find wireless bras with the proper support.

Hello ladies, hope everyone is having a great journey. I went off the radar for a minute. I got a bit crazy with work, family and pretty much adjusting to life situations.

I just started going back to the gym 2 weeks ago. Man am I happy to get back to working out. The surgery and recovery period did a number on me. I gained at least 3lbs and am trying my best to shed it all off. As far as workouts, I stopped doing any exercises that would stress my pectorals. So I pretty much stopped doing all upper body workouts. I still do arms, but I am very careful with the weights.

I just took these pics this morning. I will take better ones once I start waking up. I woke up feeling exhausted today.

P.S.
I still hate that my left areola has an awkward uneven shape. I can deal with it for now, but I feel as though it will annoy me in the future. I am also unsure of how well they are dropping. Are they even or does my left boob look a little off. I am afraid of the double bubble.

Has Dr. H been good with follow-up questions and care? I see him in October and I kind of want to prepare for what to expect after surgery. I will be coming in from out of town and I've read that some of his patients just talked to the nurses and not him. I'm beginning to wonder if questions are "put off" to the nurses and patients "feel bad" if they want to surpass the nurses and talk to Dr. H. Random question, I know, it's just the vibe I've been getting from reading patient's post op stories.

He was great! I work mostly with my out of town patient coordinator. Her name is Jennifer and she is the liaison between me and Dr.H. I did speak directly with Dr. H via cell phone after I had my procedure. He made sure that all my questions and concerns were answered before he got off the phone with me.
I think it depends on the situation and the concerns you have. If it's medical, he reviews your photos and advises Jen on what to send you as a respond. However, if it's something simple Jen does it. His staff is well trained and very informed. I think you will like it.
