Revision surgery scheduled (breast reduction)-second guessing decision. If you had revision would you do again.

My revision surgery is scheduled for next week and I am still unsure. Due to infection, rejecting internal stitches etc I have scarring. I also have extra fat under my one breast which is dropping down. If I do not do it now I never will. My resistance is fear that I will have a repeat of my nightmare. My PS says this is not anywhere as difficult or intense as my first surgery but that he will open me on same lines as he did before, cut out scarring and recluse me making me somewhat smaller ( which is okay with me). Has anyone else had revision for this and would you do it again? Insurance is covering cost as they did the reduction.

This if for those who have struggled with issues. I thought my wound would never close up and I thought the scar would be horrible. And while I end up not scar free it is good enough for me. If you are having issues hang in there. I still have one more revision surgery as my right side has like a double thing going on and Dr will lipo it. I am good with that as I wish he would have made me a smaller than he did but proportionally things look good. I also wish my new boobs were a little perkier but at my age, 53, they just aren't meant to be that way by nature. They are also much perkier than they use to be.

So if you have problems with incisions popping open, get a signficant infection and think your body will never heal-keep the faith. I am amazed what our bodies will do. Having this surgery has changed my life. I can now do jumping jacks! I can work out so much better and my back pain is gone. I am eating healthier and continue to shape up the rest of my body. I love shopping for clothes now. I have gone from a size 20 to a 14 and still working downward. Some of the reduction is due to the tummy tuck some due to diet and exercise.

PS said I could stop packing the wound. I was elated. I am now applying bandages to keep it moist and it is beginning to fill in. I was amazed how after a few days the wound is only half as deep as it was. Still some drainage, still on the antibiotics but I finally feel as though it is really going to mend. I know I still have a long way to go, but the pain is far less and I see positive change in direction. I am still laying low which is hard to do but allowing time and energy for the healing. I can't wait to get back to the gym and back to "norman". Spring is in the air and my gardens are calling me.
