This is almost two months post-op btw :,) my nipples look the same and have sensation still they are just uneven (even before surgery) so put lil hearts on them. I’m 20, started my journey at 16

I’m not really sure what my band size was but I know that I had small A cup breasts before surgery. My surgeon never pushed me to go bigger, he actually said that results would look more natural with the smaller size and less risk of complications. I never really wore bras before I always wore bralettes so band sizes have gone completely over my head. I hope this helps :,)

Originally 350cc but at the surgery date we went down to 335cc because I wanted my breasts to be proportional to my body and not too big. It helped with healing too :,)

That’s awesome! My family has a smaller breast size so mine were normal in comparison to my family :,) Congrats on starting HRT!!! It’s truly a blessing to be able to do it

They look awesome!! What profile are they? Did you go over or under the muscle? Those are the things I’m still debating. I had my consult recently and can’t decide.

I did over the muscle. I’m a very active person and my surgeon said over the muscle is better and less risk of long term complications. Also I had really great breast tissue to begin with so it all worked out :,) I think Dr. Al Kassis only does over the muscle, I might be wrong.

They're definitely well hidden. I thought the incision may have been peri-areolar.

Any loss of nipple sensation? That's one of my biggest concerns about BA.

My nipples were a little numb for a a week or two but all my sensation came back. Also my nipples were super sensitive before. If you have concerns just make sure to voice your worries to your surgeon so they know what your expectations are

My BA Surgery is in a few days, he is also doing a labiplasty. I'm curious how much help did you need during recovery?
