I am really upset about the fullness difference. Hubby says it makes them look more natural and they are fine, but I hate them when I see it in a picture. I just don't think I spent $8k to be lopsided! What do you think??? Should I have them redone so they are more full and match better or am I being an obsessive idiot???? I want to know your TRUE feelings. The poll is anonymous!

I think they look great, but I understand where you're coming from. 25 years ago I had a breast reduction and was okay with the way it turned out but not thrilled. I was young and didn't speak up about my dissatisfaction and always wished I would have. I can see what you're talking about, but how do they look in your clothes? Is there a noticeable difference? If they really bother you then get them redone, after all 8k is alot to lay out and not be totally satisfied. But as far as they way they look to others - I would say that I planning to have a lift iwth implants after I lose my weight and I would hope they look as good as yours.

I have more lopsidedness than that with my natural boobs! I'd be supremely happy with a pair like that. Nobody would ever notice unless they were a) seeing you starkers and :) really looking for it.

I can understand that you spent $8K on them and I'd be pissed off - I'd be more inclined to create a huge song and dance about getting my flipping money back than to go under the knife again though.

They look great. You'd never notice it clothed and your DH is happy about them, so why on EARTH would you put yourself through more surgery? But I definitely dont think that it's acceptable for what you paid. I'd be seeking restitution in terms of money, not more surgery.

DH "says" they look fine, but then again, I didn't do them for him, I did them for me. In clothes they look fine and I really don't notice a huge difference except in pictures (the way others would see it). I am not saying that a lot of people see me naked. Ok, so maybe I am a bit of an exhibitionist. Ok, ok, ok, so I am a big exhibitionist. I just don't feel comfy showing these off with they way I see them in pictures.

I mean, look how many of us refused to have pictures when we were fat because of how we actually looked when we looked at them? ((sigh))

I have an appt on the 30th but I know what he is going to say..... "they need time to heal, give it 6 mo-a year". But why would I want to wait for the scars to heal? Its kinda like those free trial infomercials. Who wants to go through the headache after the free trial to fight for their money back guarantee?

Okay, so I can't sleep. I am obsessing I think.

I got to thinkin'...... what if arms up and arms down natural makes a difference because of the implants? So here is a pic of arms down. Still a big difference? I need some male opinions too guys. I won't think your creepy. But I do need honesty. Thank you everyone for understanding that I can see a difference, I just don't know if I am being too judgmental because I am biased.

I agree 100% with what Jacqui said. My right one is about a cup bigger than the left one. I'm a 44DD.

I do think you are obsessing, but I understand 100% why, and that's perfectly okay! :) It could be that one had a little more manipulation than the other so the swelling is greater on one side and it may go down, BUT, I also remember you said you wanted a full DD and you didn't get it. So based on that alone, I'd probably complain.

I think they look GREAT arms down. Arms up, not so much, but really do you walk around naked with your arms in the air often?

I would LOVE a pair that look like the second picture - don't mess with them, because other than the nipple being slightly off (which is a naturally occuring thing!) its really not worth it!!

They're a keeper I say! Do you mind me asking what size they are now? Boy I wish mine looked like that.

with arms down, i only notice the nipple being off. Try to get some of your money back, but I would not go under the knife again. They look fine. Why don't you wait 6 months and see how you feel then. But if they really make you unhappy and you have the extra money to spend get them redone by a new doc. Or better yet why not see a new doc and ask him if he thinks the size differnce will improve in the months to come.

With the arms down they look awesome, my advice don't walk around naked with your arms raised. If you are aiming for perfection you will never achieve it, there will always be something wrong. Were you looking for a huge improvement or perfect boobies? During my PS the dr told me that he really tries not to do surgery on people that expect perfection because there is nothing he can ever do to make that happen. Look at your before and compare to now. What if you have another surgery, more scars and they are worst than now, what then?

Now if your boobies were 2 different cup sizes or the nipples pointed in different directions then I would totally be talking redo/fix ASAP.

Just my 2 cents worth.

Right now, I am a full D. Some styles I can do a DD but I wanted a FULL DD.

The slight nipple difference with arms down won't make me run to get a redo but I think that with 8k, I want a little more "perfection". I could have done them for about 6k but I chose to go with someone that was known for their work and paid extra for it.

The size difference isn't noticable in clothes/bra at all.

I am also wondering, I am right handed, and the problem of the "fast dropping" is on the right side breast. Think that has something to do with it?????

I think they look wonderful. I am getting my breast augmentation in about 5 weeks. Can you tell me how many cc's they are? My doc goes by cc and not really by cup size so i'm not really sure how many cc's to ask for for the DD that I want.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
