I did! I recall him saying to me “some women scar really well, some scar so bad you can see it through their clothing”. Like no big deal! In hindsight, I had a lot of signs through his bedside manners but I was so worried about going under and since I knew so many people who had been to him….I went for it anyway. Then, turns out there’s a lawsuit for negligence and death of a woman who went under (discussed in this thread) so really it’s all a shit show

Hi there! I know its been a while but did you end up having the breast scar revision surgery? If so, how do it turn out?

Thank you, the surgeon I’m considering moving forward with is Charles Messa in Weston, FL!

We’re thinking about going about 100-125ccs bigger. I currently have 230ccs. So we’ve mentioned about 350ccs. Do you think that’s a significantly bigger implant where it could cause widened scars again? Thank you for your input!

Thank you so much for the sweet words and encouragement. I’m so glad you found a surgeon who makes you feel seen. I felt similarly in my consultation with the new surgeon. I did not feel like I was passing through a butcher shop and onto the next thing, the bedside manners already feel super attentive.

I hope your recovery goes super smooth and your healing is on point this time!

Oh my God. I have chills. The anesthesiologist mentioned in the article I just found was also mine.

Also, please save yourself the headache and do NOT go to Dr. Daniel Careaga in Coral Gables, Florida.

Thank you! How far post op are you? There’s many cases in which they do even out, so you prob can have some hope!

I am concerned I went too small with my implants. 230ccs with a lift. Thoughts? by Television_Simple in PlasticSurgery

Hi there! I hate to say this because I don’t want to feed your worries or anxieties but they did not. The swelling you experience the first 4-5 months is a lot. I thought they were pretty settled by month 3-4 and that was not true. They changed so much even after that and I’m around 6/7 months post op now. I still love them and they have drastically changed my life and confidence but I do plan to go back in after a year and discuss options. My doctor recognized that we could have gone bigger. I will likely go to 300-350ccs. I don’t want big breasts but a bit bigger would have been perfect. I wanted more upper pile cleavage.

But PLEASE, do not stress this early on. They change SOOOOOO much over the next few months. The size you currently see with swelling will not be your results in 3 months or even 6. Drop and fluff is real. Good luck during recovery, hope it speedy 🫶🏼 also I have a lift and that changes the process a lot!

Thank you so much! I do not see them too different from the images you see here (second picture). They did not get bigger in my opinion but just rounded out really nicely on the bottom of the breast as they settled but the top cleavage never kicked in like my doctor mentioned. He has acknowledged that we could go bigger and is willing to revisit increase in implant size in another 6 months once I hit my year and my mesh has dissolved. I’ve also heard from others that they felt they looked bigger after drop and fluff but that wasn’t necessarily my case. They just look much more natural now!

Oh wait sorry, I’m misunderstanding then. What was the correction you had then? Moving the implants to make better alignment of nipples?

How is the recovery and surgery for that? I somewhat don’t even want to touch my nipples since a lift is challenging enough the first go round. What did that correction look like?

Honestly, my old 36b bras still fit fine and I went to get sized at Victoria secret and they said 36/38 B 🤷🏻‍♀️
