  • Posted to DD to C? Worth It - Palm Beach Gardens, FL on 10 Feb 2013
    Hi! I am 2 days post op and I was a DD/E and I hope that I was reduced to a small C. The surgeon still took a lot of tissue away to get to that size. I was sick of the shoulder, neck and upper back pain. I have friends that have had this surgery done and their scarring is minimal - I was truly shocked. I had expected that the scars would be very obvious, but they weren't! It is far too early to say what my scars will look like. A guy should like you for you, and if he is turned off by minimal scarring - then you probably don't want to be with him in the first place! The nerves are normal! I cried all the way to the operating room and as the surgeon marked me. I wanted the surgery - I was just nervous and scared of the unknown. He reassured me that I wasn't acting like a nut, and that many patients cry!

    I am 2 days post op. I booked this surgery twice and cancelled before I actually went it. I decided to stop researching on the internet. For me, too much information was too much information and I got totally freaked out. This time, I booked the surgery and just blocked it out of my mind (otherwise, my anxiety would come back and I'd cancel). I am only 2 days post op - so I am no expert - but I had reached the point where I was simply not wiling to live with the constant neck, shoulder and back pain anymore!
