My last post was regarding my decision to explant,and i just wanted to update on the situation. Finances right now wont allow me to explant and take another month off. So me and hubby went to a local specialty swimsuit shop the day after i posted that(Thanks BooBitties). And real talk, i found a top (after trying on over 15) that i can wear to work that alleviates almost all of the pain except for my nipple and the occasional zinger. And they actually look halfway decent. After a few days of wearing it, im almost back to good. I picked my boys up today without being in pain. Just typing it out makes me want to cry tears of joy... i just have to stay in hardcore pushups to stay comfy. Lightbulb!

anyways. As most of you know, I'm an exotic dancer. One of my good customers ive known for a long while tells me the other day (he knows the situation) "if you want to get them fixed, ill pay for it, i know you wanted them out because you were hurting, but if its just the appearance bothering you now, maybe this can be fixed"... So I reached out to Revis to see what he thinks needs to be done. Apparently i definitely should've had a donut lift, no questiond asked, to center my nips. I pretty much came out of surgery bottomed out and LD due to my PS centering my implants behind my completely out of whack nipples. Internal bra, and wider implants to close my gap. (Yet PS suggested going down 200 or more CCs.)Anyways, a quote was involved and i told my customer all of this.... long story short, guess whos getting Revis-ed in September!!! This chick!!! When he told me to give him the number to make the payment, i literally broke down bawling. The pain going away and getting set up to see Revis in the same week? Awesomeness!! The only downfall is i am going to be stuck in underwires 24/7 until then or i start getting uncomfortable again. I thought long and hard about it. Talked all night every night with hubby, and came to the conclusion "why let one surgeon ruin this for me? He messed up and doesn't want to own it, screw him" i wanted a BA ever since i had my first son, and he made me bitter about implants over the course of 3 months. He made me think i was doomed and i did this to myself. No Dr, YOU did this to me. Quit blaming me for your error.

So im taking my butt down to Florida, and getting Revis-ed! And if for whatever reason i have issues afterwards, they'll come out. Im totally accepting of being without implants. As i said before, i don't need them to be happy. But if i can have them AND be happy, why not? Getting surgery with Revis is something i cannot pass up. Over the moon about this. Plus, surgery will be right around the time of my birthday, and what an awesome bday present Revis boobs will be. I know i can be sure said customer isnt going to be expecting anything in return, because this isnt the first time hes done something amazing for me. He's just a really awesome and giving guy, with more money than he knows what to do with. And i am so super thankful i have this opportunity. It feels surreal still.

Hello, I'm new here. I am considering getting my implants done in Brussels by Dr. Wilekens at atlaskliniek through Belgium Surgery Services. I can't really find more info on him other than what is on BSS. Anyone been with him? Great package for the price. Just worried it's too good to be true

Outside Recovery

I am getting my surgery in exactly 1 month!!!!!!! I have the most beautiful backyard and I know that you can't go swimming or expose your incisions to sunlight. But I was wondering, has anyone spent their time recovering outside? I thought it would be relaxing to lay in my hammock (With the boobs covered up) and listen to the waterfall.

Well... Today is my 8 week mark and though I should be feeling a-ok, I'm not.

In the past month, I've had two different people tell me that my implants were too small for my body. Some of you know I lost 190 pounds and before that I had a very large chest. So even with the implants, I'm still like 3 cup sizes smaller than I was at my largest. It has taken some getting used to, but comments like that make me really feel like crap, and I even started looking today at possibly going bigger in the next few months to a year. I always preach that your body is your own and if someone else doesn't like it, oh well... But I surely don't feel that way today.

First consultation this Friday!

I have my first consultation this Friday! My husband is going with me, for which I'm glad. Having two sets of ears and brains is always good. :)

I'm excited to finally get moving with this beyond just researching. I've scheduled two other consultations, but those aren't until July. Looking to maybe get it done in August, before school starts for my kids. Otherwise, I'm doing it during Christmas break.

Has anyone used the Mentor warranty for this and what was your experience? Thanks!!

Wanting to downsize or explant

$

Hi Dr Pousti, your advice would be much appreciated on my situation: I've had 3 sets of implants since 2001. My last surgery was in February 2014, to downsize from 450cc mod+ to 300cc mod saline. I am still very unsatisfied with my implants and I feel drained after all these years of having problems. They feel very hard and painful. My PS says I don't have CC, that's just the way they are supposed to be and he doesn't think that the pain in my left breast comes from the implant. He prescribed me some pain meds to reduce the inflammation but it doesn't work. I am thinking about downsizing again, to a very small size, around 175cc (saline again because I don't trust silicone gel) ...or just get them out without replacement....I have also considered having some saline removed from my current implants but I don't really think it would be a good option....what do you think would be the best choice for my situation? I had pretty good result the last time I downsized as my skin snapped bakc completely after just a few weeks, do you think it could do the same if I downsize again or if I explant? I know this is very hard to tell without an examination but what do you think from your experience?
Thank you very much.

After months of planning and waiting and second guessing and going back and forth between nervous and excited, I'm happy to say my surgery was yesterday and went great! I love them already! My surgeon went with 265cc under the muscle as well as the doughnut lift and she lowered my crease. They're sitting high and swollen but from everything I've read on JBI, that will take care of itself in time. And I feel so much more feminine and....normal!

Thanks ladies for answering so many questions and for all the support. What a great forum.

Got Revis?

I got Revised today.

I got 1000cc, which is the top of the range I was looking at. Supper pleased with the result so far. It has only been a few hours, but the size and shape look great! Can't wait to get the bandages off so I can get a better look at the results. :itsallgood:

I am feeling surprisingly well compared to my first two BA's. DH and I even went to dinner at a nice restaurant (the crab cakes were delicious).

I am going to try to upload the post op pics to my album.

Hi Ladies,

My BA is next week on Thursday July 25th. I don't have access to look at member's pictures yet, so I was wondering will 375cc will make me look too top heavy? I don't mind the fake look as long as it doesn't make me look top heavy. I would like some side boobs and a nice gap between my breast. Anyone with similar stats regret going this size?

My Stats:
Height: 5'0
Weight: 90lbs
Breast size: 30B (big A, small B)
BWD: 11cm

Implants:
Brand: Mentor
Type: High Profile
Diameter: 12cm
Projection: 4.8 cm
Volume: 375cc


The look I like:





Larger implants and sacrifice of clothing?

Those of you with implants 650-800…can any of you wear spaghetti strap clothing or any type of clothing that requires you to not wear a full bra?

I used to be able to wear just the little sticky bras with my first BA, but then I decided to go larger with my second BA and got silicone 650s. I have bottomed out and have double bubble, which I'm going to get revised with Dr. Revis, but he wants to go with a larger implant, 800s, to give me the upper pole fullness I'm desiring. I already feel like I've lost a full selection of clothing going to just the 650s. I see cute spaghetti strap or backless tops and dresses and am so discouraged because I can currently only wear clothing that can hide my huge, supportive bra. Anyway, I'm just wondering if I go with larger implant and get the internal bra and donut lift, will I still be limited or will I be able to actually wear cute clothing again? Any of you have any experience with this? When I went to get my 2nd BA, I didn't think to ask about any of this. I just assumed all implants stayed "at attention", lol!! Sadly, I learned at my own expense that this isn't the case. Thanks for your help!!

Anchor incisions unveiled

My tape wasn't supposed to come off until 3 weeks post, but while at Post op visit today (day 16), PS took off the tape. I was shocked at how good my incisions looked. I have one little spot still open that I have to keep covered with bandaid and polysporin, but otherwise they look good. I posted a photo, right breast still pretty bruised. I think they are going to blend really well when healed!

Before and afters up!

My doctor sent me my before and after photos, the after photos were taken at 6 weeks post op.
Preop I was a 32B/C and currently I'm a 32D 30DD I believe.
260cc silicone implant, high profile, with a donut incision to slightly reduce the size of the nipple.

I'm soooo happy with my results I cant even begin to explain

I saw my before photos and I was like "....whoa..... thank God I did this!"

I just had to pay a visit to my dearest JBI forum...today marks 1 year since my revision and upgrade with the incredible Dr. Revis!! My twins are doing awesome and I could not be happier :) my recovery was intense and painful but all that has melted away and I have arrived at soft, squishy, beautiful round girls :) I have my full story in the stories forum under "the ugly sister" for those that are interested. My internal bra healed beautifully and I no longer have discomfort. I will post a 1 yr update to my story later tonight.
Thank you for all of the support this last year...I still check the forums 1-2 times a week to stay updated :) attaching a current picture...32DD is my go to size choice even though I have a 29 rib cage.

Hey ladies! It's been a while. I just reached my 5 month post op mark! I am so in love withy boobs! I don't even remember what it was like before I had them lol. The one thing I don't like is the sweat! Man these babies sweat a lot that's something I didn't really think about before hand. But that is the only complaint I have. I put up a few pictures in my post op album if you'd like to take a look!

Hey JBI,

I joined quite some time ago, but I've finally gotten the courage to post.

I'm a 24 year old waitress/student. 5'5"
36A -36B depending on the bra.
Wanting to go to a full D.

I've met and had a consultation with Dr. Ciaravino and his absolutely amazing coordinator Ashley. We decided on a 400cc HP Silicone implant and I'm totally on board. I have been putting off scheduling a BA date because I want to be closer to my ideal weight, I am 160 and I want to lose about 20 pounds and also just be healthier overall for a major surgery (junk food addict). I also was thinking off gifting myself new boobies for my 25th B-day with isn't until November.

Overall, I'm really excited, I come on JBI almost everyday. I tend to go back and forth over cc's and contemplate talking Dr. C up to a 425-450 but I am absolutely dead set on a crease incision, high profiles, and silicone.

Anyways, I'm glad to be on JBI with you ladies and I've really enjoyed this forum.

One week post op visit and new bikinis

Today I had my 1 week post op appointment. My PS had already taken the surgical tape off last time I was in, so he took a quick look and said my incisions are healing well. I'm cleared for exercise, and he wants me to be fitted for an underwire bra (not sure I can bear the thought of an underwire with the incision still healing in the crease, though...). Next appointment is in 3 months!

So, on my way home I stopped at Target and tried on some bikinis. I could have cried with joy at how much more fun it is try on tops without having to squish and hide loose breast skin. not to mention that even on day 7 they look pretty hot. squeeee!!! Can't wait to show off the girls at the beach in 2 weeks :)

I'll update my avatar soon with one of my new tops.

Feeling pretty on top of the world today :happydance:
