HEY EVERYONE! sorry i havent been on here in a while, but heres what happened! so on the day of surgery i arrived at the clinic at 10:30am, had my surgery at 12:30 and was discharged from the clinic at 3:20pm. everything on the day of surgery went super well, general anesthesia was good to me! yay. so i ended up getting 425cc mentor smooth silicone HP. i had a pain pouch around my waist which delivered local anesthetic to my breast pocket and had one drain coming out of each armpit and was wearing the surgical strap. on PO day 1 (november 13 the day after surgery) i returned to the clinic at 10:30am so they could remove the drains and pain pack. The nurse noticed i had a big bruise on my right collarbone shoulder armpit area. Dr lista came in and told me that he was going to take me back into the OR, put me to sleep and drain the blood. i had a HETAMOMA (idk how you spell that). I had to wait until all of their surgeries for that day were done to get the OR free. I only had to wait till 12ish, and was out of the clinic by 3:30. I had one drain coming out of my right armpit where they drained the blood. i was not expecting that long of a day the the clinic because the post op appointment was originally only supposed to take 5 mins!... Dr lista was amazing because he cares about the patient and how they are recovering. At other PS clinics, they need payments if you require additional surgery. Dr lista coveres any complications for life!! the only time you ever need to pay again is if you want a bigger implant size. my recovery was super good, i didnt have to take ANY PAIN PILLS :D i only took arnica pills for swelling, stool softeners and anti inflammatories. i went back to the clinic PO day 2 to remove the drain. and boy was that the wierdest feeling ever!! I was instructed to shower (FINALLY - after 2 days of being dirty!) and to wash my incisions 4 times a day and apply polysporin.Everything was looking good, i finally did a number 2 on PO day 5! at my 1 week PO appointment, i was cleared to massage my breasts and incisions. At my 2 week appointment I was told i looked amazing :) my breasts were softening up nicely. i was instructed to keep massaging, i could finally sleep on my tummy (to soften up my breasts more), i didnt have to wear the surgical strap 24/7 anymore...i only had to wear the strap at night for 2 more weeks, i could finally start using scar treatment, and in 2 weeks i could start wearing any bras :D yay. So now im at my 4 week PO mark, ive been using scar fade ointment and silicone scar sheets. Im also wearing bras - i bought the perfect comfort demi push up bra from Victoria Secret in a 34DD (i was wearing a 32C or 34B pre op)!!! YAY! i still need to Drop and fluff but im super excited about my progress. my next post op appt with dr lista is on January 16.
what i am getting:
im getting 425cc High profile silicone smooth mentor implants, incision transaxillary, placed under the muscle (dual plane)! :)
