How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Got my drains out!!
I feel really good today! Went to my post op check up and the doctor said everything looked great, just a little blistering around the nipple. I've uploaded some pictures. As you can see, the right one is a little higher, but that one has more swelling since there was more work to be done. He took out my drains. Right side hurt a little but I didn't even feel the left one come out. I learned today that my stitches are dissolvable so I don't have to worry about that removal pain. I'm in love with my new boobs and I can't wait to keep healing! Also my bladder issues went away but now I'm dealing with constipation :/. Had some Metamucil so I'm just hoping and praying for results!
Day 2 and 3...ouch
Yesterday and today have been a little rough. As soon as the pain meds would start wearing off, the pain would kick in. Stabbing pain in the lower incisions. Once the meds kick in though it's fine. One unexpected issue I've been having is an overactive bladder. I have been peeing at least once an hour and I feel like I don't quite empty all the way. No burning or pain, just the frequency and fullness. Any thoughts or advice on this?
Also drains come out tomorrow so I will post pics after. I haven't even had the courage to look yet!!!

Surgery day and day 2
The surgery could not have gone smoother! All of the nurses and the surgeon, my husband and my family were amazing! Anesthesia was nothing and I woke up pain free. I did puke twice but just liquids. My first thought waking up was " I have to peeee!!"
My first night was great, no pain with the drugs. Today I've been in a lot of pain so I've been in and out of sleep. I might take a peek at the girls tomorrow and take some pics!!!
