3 Months Post-Op Progress Pics!
It's hard to say because they haven't fully filled out yet. I know, I do feel like they look smaller without a bra, but so far verified as a 34DDD in every bra I try on. I do wish they were a bit bigger, or more filled-out but we'll see where I am in a few months from now. It's hard to know what your end-result will be, especially if you lost a lot of weight and are also getting a lift.

WOW!!!! You look phenomenal!!!!
I'm much like your before photo, and have been thinking that it's okay. I'll live with the saggy, baggy, since it's really not much........
BUT since I saw your results, I so want to get this done!!! To have a body that you don't have to rush to cover with clothes, even though it is smaller than when you used to rush to over it with clothes. Now that would be a dream come true!!
Thanks for sharing your photos. You are inspirational!!

Thank you so much for the kind feedback and words!! I'm only 3 months out and I don't regret it for a second. I feel like a free woman. Hahah! No more having to consider if this top will make my tummy bulge show or not being able to wear anything remotely form-fitted. It's going to sound super corny but it does feel like a weight has been lifted!
It's so true what many others have said on these forums - just losing the weight wasn't enough for me. Sure, I looked thinner, but I feel like this was the final step - saying "good riddance!!" to all that lose skin I was trying to conceal!! :)

I'm in NYC and my surgery was with Dr. Reish. Who was amazing.

I did it as an outpatient procedure in their surgical facility. They have one on Park Ave. and one out on Long Island. I opted for Long Island due ease of driving for my family.
None of it was covered by insurance so it was all out of pocket, but because I had a combination of procedures, the office worked with me to reduce cost. Dr. Reish and his staff took amazing care of me. He even gives all his patients his cell phone number, and was responsive when I had some concerns a day or two after surgery.
Here's his RealSelf profile, so you can check out the reviews. I would highly recommend him.
