I had pretty large breast probably 42 DDD by the time I was done breast-feeding. They were sagging and the nipples were not even an one of them maybe a little bigger than the other. I had back pain and bad posture and indents from my bra on my shoulders. They were just downright heavy, I couldn't run or do certain exercises. Bras were pretty hard to find. So I got approved for my insurance to get that reduction and the lift and my doctor was great I think he did a really good job I got it done the day after Christmas 2013. So it's been a week now and I been liking the healing, I thought I was doing really good. But now I'm getting a little scared because I have a red spot on the right breast not even on the incision there's like a sore and There is always yellow crust on my bra. I'm not sure if it's from my bra wearing on the skin or something else is going on , I also have some black on the incision where it goes down to a T at the bottom and looking close at my nipples they kind of look like they might be turning a little black I'm not exactly sure I have some pain on the side under my right arm and now my nipples two. I'm kinda freaking out.

I had a follow-up with Dr. Novia the day after the surgery, he unwrapped me took a look and said it looked great and put on my Bra and sent me on my way I have another follow-up appointment on Monday which will be a week and a half after the procedure so I'm looking forward to seeing him so I can ask the questions that I need to ask to set my mind at ease. I had my visit with Dr. Novia, he said everything is right where it needs to be if not better and everything looks great. so I'm super excited so happy with the results and healing very very fast. He is such an awesome awesome plastic surgeon great person I'm just so happy that he did my surgery and everything turned out as great as it did.
