Hi everyone I had my surgery 3 wks ago and so far I'm feeling good, I am off the percocet, I can move around normal without to much pain. I'm having some discomfort but nothing to serious. This has been a very emotional journey because I'm really not sure what to expect so it's a little scary. I'm not sure if I'm happy with the results as of yet because my breast look so small and flat and it's seems that thats the first thing everyone notice when they see me now is this a normal look at 3wks? Also it's feels like my breast are having muscle spasms when I get cold or move a certain way the tissue glue is peeling and the sports bras make my breast cramp. Can someone please help me understand what is going on because I have no clue.

I've had a scar revision since my reduction, I'm still in pain, my breast never shaped into a normal shape, I'm unable to wear bras only sports bras, I'm unhappy with myself and I wish I never has the surgery done.

I finally come to terms that my breast are botched and isn't going to get any better. I've had a scar revision which made things alot worst and I'm very unhappy with myself. I've tried to get a lawsuit but haven't had any luck and I'm wishing I would have just kept my large breast and suffered from the pain because things aren't the same anymore.. I've attached some updated photos for you all to see.. I had a reduction, lift, nipple graft, and I had a scar revision and this is the ending results..

My breast are still in lots of pain, they still shape funny and are very flat, I still have breast tissue on the sides from when I had bigger breast and now matter how much I work out or lose weight the Bulge is still on both sides. I have tried to file a lawsuit against the surgeon who did my surgery but everyone says I don't have a case SMH. I did not ask to be this small I requested to be a 36C but yet the surgeon did what he thought fits my body size and I don't believe that is right, I feel like I have been disfigured and I am very unhappy. My advice to you ladies if you can deal with the pain please do, if you decide to go with the surgeon please don't choose him off of the pictures you see online read reviews and do your research before allowing someone to cut on you. Good luck

Hello everyone this is an update on my results. It's been 4 years since my procedure and I am still angry. I feel like dr. Christiano disfigured me and nothing has been done. I am stuck with horrible disfigured breast, I am unable to where bras because of the shape of my breast I still have pain in my breast and they are still square-shaped and very flat SMH my breasts were a 36 triple D before the procedure there is no way in hell I should have flat breast right now. Every time I look at another surgeons breast reduction jobs I get angry because I don't understand why I was cut and so many different places just to reduce the size of my breast. I have been going through lots of emotional trauma and self-esteem issues over the years and I do not recommend dr. Christiano to anyone. I don't know why he did such a horrible job on my breast or if he allowed a resident to practice on me but what they did to me is wrong and I wish I could just look normal again. Please do your research before getting surgery. Do not just go by the photos they post, reach out to patients, and weigh your options. I do not wish what I am going through on anyone.
