2 Week Check Up And Drop Results
Well, I was kind of nervous about my appointment and forgot to ask some key questions:
- Can I wear normal bras now?
(I've been wearing the post-op bras on only one hook since they are too tight now, shelf tanks, and super thin shelf/tube-top "bras")
- Is it safe to sleep on my side?
(sleeping on my back is my least preferred style)
- May I put cream on my stitches even before they dissolve?
I did ask some questions:
- May I go get chiropractic adjustments?
A: only if they can do it without pressure on my chest and not while I'm on my stomach
- Can I stop using hibclense?
A: Yes, I may because that [RS bleep] is drying out my skin
- Is there a certain point in time where I need to be "dropped" by? Like if I don't, will it just stay high forever?
A: My skin will always be stretching so in like 20 years, I may or may not want them back up high =) There is no drop deadline.
SOoooooooo I have to call the office tomorrow to get the questions above answered.
On Dropping- I dropped .5 in on both sides since Dec 29! I measured both sides in relation to my collarbone and saw a half inch difference!
Yesterday: First Period with the Boobs
Tomorrow I have my 2 week check up. Hopefully, they will tell me the next steps to get them to feel more like boobs and not a firm ass ;)
Day 12 Happy New Year
At least, now I'm pooping on the regular, and I've dropped down to my pre-surgery weight, even with the new extra "gifts"
Provider Review
I was recommended Dr. Troy Andreasen by a friend who knew two girls who were his former patients. Gal 1 had saline implants around 10 years ago, and Gal 2 had silicone implants 6 years ago. Both were felt Dr. Andreasen was super capable and loved his work to this day. Gal 1 said she would have gone with silicone if it was available at the time. Gal 2 has had two kids and still loved her breast aug. I've met these girls IRL and didn't know they had undergone the surgery. I just figured, "Just another white girl born with big boobs, unlike my tiny 'yellow hills’" The office is easy to find; parking was even easier to find. The staff is super helpful and kind. Dr. Andreasen was super knowledgeable. He encouraged all my questions so nothing was “too stupid” to ask. Ladies, don’t worry- he isn’t creepy. You really don’t need to shy away from a male doctor especially one with a professional demeanor as his. His recommendation for sizing and implant selecting were tailored to my lifestyle, body frame, and desired outcome. The big piece of advice I would give to potential patients is plan on arriving for your appointment time an hour BEFORE when they tell you they want you to be there: I was advised to call the office on Friday before my surgery if I didn’t get a call by noon. I called the office at 1pm. The office told me I had to call the surgery center, so I hung up and called the surgery center. I was told that my appointment was going to be at 9:00am, and that a nurse would call me back with more instructions. The nurse called later to tell me my appointment was at 8:30am and gave me all my instructions. I called the surgery center back to confirm whether my appointment was going to be at 8:30 or 9:00. They said 8:30 for arrival and my surgery was probably going to be at 9:30. During the morning of the surgery, according to the navigation app, we had an ETA that would have put us 15 mins early to our appointment but 45 mins before my appointment, I get a call from the nurse saying I should be there now since they were ready for me regardless of my appointed time. I start to panic but she said to just drive safely, and they would see me when I got there. When I got there, I was kind of rushed through the sign in process and was told, “Everyone is waiting on you”. Whatever. I was really stressed out at that point and pretty pissed because I did everything I could to be prepared for this, and had I received a call requesting me to come in earlier, I would have done so. Instead I get a call almost 45 mins before my appointed time saying I should be there already since they are running early. I don’t know know if it was because Dr Andreason’s team is so efficient that they just breeze through surgeries, or if people cancelled, or if they were in a hurry because it was the holidays, but they will not call you to see if you can get there earlier than expected, they will just expect you to be there. Which I have no issue with because I line up early for concert tickets, busy restaurants, Apple product releases so my boobs, for sure, I’ll line up early than expected for them… I just didn’t know I would have to and got stressed out. In summary: || Dr Andreasen: Awesome doc. Personable. Listens. Thorough || Office: Easy to find. Easy to park. || Office Staff: Kind. Attentive. Organized. Readily Available for questions || Surgery Center: Easy to find. Easy to park. || Surgery Center Work: Great. Quick. Made patients comfortable for procedure || Surgery Center Appointment System: Needs Improvement
