I had a breast reduction in June 2021 along with a tummy tuck. I had delayed healing due to blood clotting and getting a pulmonary embolism so was put on blood thinners. Most of my nipple on my left breast broke down and is horrible looking. I am happy overall with the result of my breast reduction and dont mind the other scars but I am wondering would tattooing help the appearance of my left nipple? Its rippled, bumpy and just leaving me depressed
Im about 3 1/2 wks po from DDD to,Im assuming, a B.I have some rippling/bunching on my breasts. During surgery the skin was pulled really tight on both breasts, especially the left. Over the past weeks some of the ripples have turned into stretch marks,but the bottom portion of the left breast still has folds.The right breast wasnt as bad.I think my breasts were sutured too tight.I know its early but I would like to know if things will fall in place or if Ill need a revision.Thanks
Hello. I'm one week post op TT and BR. My dr sent me home with little instruction except to wear a simple no wore bra. Stitches to come out Monday. I feel so extremely tight and like my stitches are huge?! There rippling too? At this point, I'm a little disappointed with the size as I thought we discussed I'd go down to a D cup. Tommy, they look a little above my husband.
After doing some research my stictches and ripples look a little adnornal to me and I'm starting to panic. Why did he cut so far into my side? Ripples? No bra to wear? Plus I'm still in a lot of pain 9 days p/o BR & mini Tt. How long does pain usually last for BR patients? Thank you!!!!
I had breast reduction surgery in May 27, so today I'm two-weeks post-op. On the one week post op visit my surgeon instructed me to start wearing an underwire bra. I have what I call ripples of skin under both breasts. Is this normal? Why do I have the excess skin rolls and is the underwire going to help with this?
