WORTH IT$5,000

So I have always been "Blessed" with large breast, but since my recent weight loss of 80lbs. (lost over 8 months, June 2011) the strain of my breast has increased. My starting breast size was initially at 44H and since my weight loss (from working out and eating balanced meals) my breast went down one cup size to a 36G.

I am scheduled to have my operation done on 4/4/12. I am so excited!! I will finally have breast that are proportionate to my body. I am also getting a tummy tuck to deal with the excess skin from all the weight I have lost. I will be posting and keeping every one up to date until the day of shrinkage arrives :-) All prayers are wanted and any tips that I should know to help me on this final phase of getting my body back is appreciated. Oh what can I do to help heal faster and with scars that aren't as bad.

Congratulations on your upcoming surgery. You will be so glad you did it. I just had a reduction on March 2. My suggestion would be to follow Docs orders, get a few pairs of button front pajamas, a couple of hoodies, and a nice comfy pillow with the arms on it for positioning. Best of luck to you.

So 26 days to go before the Big "little" Day..lol! I read on a plastic surgeons website (beverlyhillsbuttlift.com) that he recommends that his patients take a product called Arnica Montana 2 days prior to surgery. It is suppose to speed up healing time of bruises and scars. Does anyone know about this product?

Arnica is great for healing. I am putting the cream on my bruises post op everyday. They are fading quickly.

Where can I purchase this Arnica? Please let me know. Also, does it help with the itching.

Health Food or Vitamin Store. Get the cream. It relieves swelling from bruises and muscle pain. Not for itchng.

I just went from a 34G to ? (should be D-DD, but too soon to know exactly). I have to say that I noticed the difference almost immediately! My shoulders relaxed, my neck wasn't pulled on, and I didn't feel like I was carrying a 20lb weight around my neck. Just wait til you are braless and amazed! I'm not even 2 weeks yet and the difference is amazing.
Good luck to you!
As for the Arnica, my PS gave me tablets and gel.
