How long after the TT can I wear a Bikini? Dieing to buy one! Should I wait until after the Surgery to buy it? Current Size is 8

I'm 3 weeks PO and I can already wear my bathing suit I had before surgery. I will go shopping this week for some new summer suits.

I have a Question/Comment.................So I heard once you have PS, it becomes addicting. Well, I'm thinking I want to see if I'm a candidate for a Breast Reduction. I can't beleive I'm even thinking about more surgery and I still have a JP drain in! (Must have not been that bad right?!).............Has anyone heard the amount of "time" you should wait before having another surgery? I'm thinking at least 6 months...? Has anyone had 2 PS Surgerys and/or is anyone else thinking of having another procedure done? I'd love to hear from you~ Thanks! Amy from Pittsburgh

It is addicting !! I am already planning my next one. I have had lipo to almost my whole body, BA, and now a TT with muscle repair with more lipo. I now am planning some facial procedures, maybe laser resurfacing and mini face lift.

I agree 100%! It's tempting to shop for cute stuff, but it's best to wait.

It's fun to buy a "Goal" bikini but try to find an inexpensive one.  Your shape will change so much after surgery so it's really best to wait as long as you can.
