Over the weekend I noticed that there was a red spot forming around the suture that came through. This morning I noticed puss coming out of the suture area. So glad I have a appt. tomorrow! Talked to the Dr today though and after describing things to him today, he said it sounded like an infection. So, to get a jump start, he called in some antibiotics for me. The receptionist called to confirm my appt for tomorrow, so I decided to discuss what was going on. She immediately let my Dr know, and not much longer, he called. That's one thing I love about him, truly compassionate about his patients!

My appt was changed to today for my 3rd post op. My Dr was really pleased with how well my breasts look, feel and are just coming along great!:). I took a list of questions with me, so I wouldn't forget anything ;). My Dr and his nurse both thought that I had been applying silicone to my incision because it looked so good:). Haven't been applying a thing! My hubby and I both thought that he did an awesome job with the incision! 16 days out and will only look better:). He was very patient in answering my questions and not hurrying me. I was feeling hard lumpy like feelings on the bottom of my breasts and he explained to me that I was feeling the implant due to lack of breast tissue on the underneath part. I was glad to hear that I have been massaging correctly:). Next appt is 4 weeks from now:). I will still need to wear the sports bra for the next 4 weeks, 24 hrs/day. That is fine with me because it gives me more support:). So glad I had this done and very thankful that I found my Dr!!

Hi, how is everything. I'm thinking of going 500cc or so. I was wondering how your back adjusted to the weight. Our stats are similar, could you post a fully body shot to see how porportionate 500 cc's are on you. Hope all is well.

Hey there Upforchange!
I haven't had any back problems:). As far as proportion, I have read where lots of girls did a rice sizer and wore it for awhile to see how they liked it. If you are concerned about proportion, that should help you in determining how you would feel yourself;). I go in next week for another PO and am really hoping I get released for working out. When you do decide on your PS, make sure he/she is board certified and also check before and after photos. There were several that I didn't even bother with simply because I didn't like the results. Also, check the reviews. Google them and there is also vitals.com that has reviews. After seeing the rating of some of the PS on that site, I scratched them off my list. Good luck to ya! Do you have surgery scheduled?

thanks a bunch for replying! i am thinking of getting the silicone inserts and wearing them before surgery to see how i like the weight. i have my next consult tomorrow! im really excited about this guy. i googled him and received personal ref. if all goes well i will schedule my BA for Nov 19 or so.

Hey! The consult went great. the PS and Staff were everything a girl could want. The PS even wore a Doctor coat which for some reason I prefer. The only reason I didnt sign on the dotted line was price-$7,800 for silicone,no lift. I think this is alot considering i will need to do a lift in 3-5 years. check out my story i updated it yesterday. PS they had the ultra high profiles and they looked awesome!

My bruising is almost gone now-yay! Just a couple of spots left :) Still sore, some times more than others. One thing that I realized that I forgot to say is my height and weight. I am 40 years old. Weigh 113 and am 5'3". I had the Natrelle style 15 silicone implants, and it was 533 cc's, not 500 cc's (not quite sure why I had 500 in mind;) I'm anxious to start excersizing again so that I can work on toning my abs:) That will be one question for my PS when I go to my post op Thurs. I think that everything is going well, so hopefully I get the same from my Dr Thurs :) I have to say that I am concerned with the signs of CC, so I will be sure to ask him when I see him on what all to look for.

Thanks Boobali! I have checked it out and have even posted a question on it as well:). Lots of knowledge there!:). This site is awesome!!!

You look great! Would you mind posting a photo of the scars now that more time has passed? No pressure if you're not comfortable with that though! Thinking of going with Dr J :)
