Had last follow up appt today

WORTH IT
So today was my last follow up appt. 5 weeks and 2 days today. He said everything looks fine except my scars are a little thick. He asked if I form keloids and I told him no. His office gave me a silicone patch they had. You can cut the size you need and his a little give to it if you need to stretch it a little. The piece that you use is supposed to last two weeks if you clean it properly...hope so because then next one I have to buy and it's $45. Whew! I read that 2-3 months is the appropriate Mount of time it takes for the scars to change from wearing these things. We shall see. I hope so. Maybe it will also help with this crazy itching that jury started back up this week.

I forgot to take a pic of the path before I cut it but it's the same width and length so you get the idea. It's actually a pretty good deal if you compare this one to the ones found online. This one is much bigger and I'm sure I can get 6 more strips out of it which will equal at least 2 months.

Made it to a complete month. Incisions are pretty much healed just have a couple spots where it's still trying to close. No major issues just itching where the incisions have closed. I noticed they are starting to raise so I try to remember to massage them as much as possible.

I also tried to lay on my front but not quite ready. I've also come to terms with he larger breast and off sized nipple. It's ok. They look more better now than ever!!!

You look great :) I have the same issue but opposite side. I right nipple is shaped different and left boob is bigger. I'm 3 weeks and I'm hoping the L boob will shrink just a tad but. My hub says just to remember were I started before surgery and that I have came a long way. He thinks I look great. I need to work on that :) happy continued healing!

Yes we should listen to the hubby. I finally did and it's ok now. I mean there are only two people that will be seeing that. It's not like they're going on display in a museum so it's okay.

Woke up more sore than usual this morning. Throughout the day I was very uncomfortable and achy. When u got home and undressed my hubby and I realized my breasts dropped and maybe that's why they are so sore today. They are a tad but swollen and we can still see that the R breast is still bigger. I think it's going to stay that way and am trying to come to terms with it. I mean....the L one was bigger before the surgery so why is this bothering me so much. Oh and I don't like the uneven shape if the L nipple.

i went through this as well, after the initial delight at a great result I started obsessing about details. I am 12 weeks post op and still have swelling on one side and i keep changing my mind about which boob is bigger than the other! i think we get a bit obsessed. i would put your result in the top 10% and it is still very early days, 4 months is reckoned to be judgment day!!!! so enjoy!!! have clothes trying on session and look at some before pics. I have also lost weight since my op and i feel like a new person 20 years younger
April 19, 2014
Ok. Good to know that this is normal. I will stop obsessing and focus on the positives.
April 19, 2014
I think you are looking great. I was also very critical if my healing after i started feeling good. Not so obsessed now at almost 4 months out. You really do look amazing.

You look great, your breasts are very youthful now. It made me laugh about you automatically adjusting them. Good for you!
April 20, 2014
Thank you and yes it was funny. I'm still laughing about it!

I think you look great and so do your nipples. Most women's breasts are uneven - often by as much as a cup size. My left breast is larger than my right - which I never notice unless I am trying on certain types of bras and one of my nipples are off center but I choose not to let any of it bother me because I feel so much better than I did before the reduction.

I know I am just over analyzing. Thx
