  1. 1. SHOULD I HAVE THEM REDONE?

    • Yes, demand that the doctor fixes it to match fullness.

    • No, but if it is the same in a year, have them redone.

    • Absolutely not, you are being overly picky about great boobs!

I just like boobs :bounce:

Big, Small, perky, saggy, lopsided, not lopsided, etc...

but here is my honest opinion to your question:

in the first picture when your arms are up the right boob (your left) seems slightly larger. However if I was not looking for it I would not notice it.

In the second picture with the arms down, I had to really look to see a difference. There is a difference but it in no way seems to me IMHO to matter in the least.

I think they look great and you can show them off to me anytime you want my dear exhibitionist :confused: :eyebrows::eyebrows:

So you asked for a male opinion... my guy here says they look really big! but not bad with your arms down.

I personally can see EXACTLY what your talking about, and I'd be crying my eyes out about it. I'd either get some counseling to deal with it, or go to ANOTHER doctor and have the previous doctor cover the some, most, or all of the cost.

Very hard decision, aaaaaaah!!! maybe there is a minor procedure that can be done to straighten them out, but then you don't want to end up with the "really short haircut b/c the hairstylist couldn't get it straight"

Best of luck! Really, I hope you can work it out. After the band and everything, the way your body looks has to mean alot.

Honestly you spent quite a bit of money to have them done so you have to do what makes you happy. I am unfortunately naturally lopsided and I hate it. Bras do not fit right, if you have on a striped shirt your boobs are on different levels, and some suits show it more than other. Just something to think about....but they do look great!

I did notice some lopsidedness when your arms were raised, but with the arms down, you REALLY have to look for it. If you didn't post these pictures on this website for the reasons you did, I'd just think they were perfect boobs! Really, they look just fine and if it were me I would not put my body through another surgery for such a minor issue.

Congratulations! I can't wait to have mine done when I lose my weight.

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

Just curious how many cc's you got in your breasts? Also, how much did they shrink after all the swelling went away. I'm about 5 days post op from my augmentation and they are HUUUUUUUUUGGGGGE!

Can I ask you recently augmented gals something? Does your surgeon say anything about refraining from jogging? (like after the initial healing period, of course) Let's say running is your exercise of choice... bad idea if you want you new boobs to stay lookin' good?

I literally had to sign a contract that I would not run or exercise for 8 weeks. I had both breast augmentation and Tummy Tuck though.

They look great, don't worry to much about them being allittle off, although i do agree that you should seek monitary restitution. I wish mine looked that good:)!

You have a very nice result, nothing to worry about. Also, I think it would be unwise to go bigger - they will just sag more quickly. Your PS may be willing to revise them if you insist, but I doubt they will offer any money back.

I know that when I ask for honest opinions I really want them - so cheers. :)

In the "arms up" picture, I see a very noticeable difference in size. It looks like they're even at the top, but the left one is much larger & lower than the right. (Your left, not picture left). The difference is enough that - if it were me - I would revisit with the surgeon.

In the "arms down" picture, they look like they're the same size, but with uneven nipples (location, not size). IMO that's not so much an issue because none of us are completely symmetrical.

This is why I don't have a tattoo. I'd get it, and then scrutinize it and be dismayed by uneven lines, imperfect circles, etc.

      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.
