I was so nervous to take the steps toward getting a breast reduction. My PCP referred me to Dr. Zeineh and she made me feel so comfortable at the initial consult. She was able to answer any question I had about the surgery and her staff was extremely helpful with helping me get all my paperwork in order. I love my new boobs, they're perfect and I had the best team helping take care of me along the way
I had TT today, thank good everything went well. Anxious to see what it looks like. I was lucky enough to have skin removal covered by insurance, I just paid for the difference to upgrade to tt. I get to stay overnight at hospital -thank god! If I don't move I'm OK especially since I have pain meds. However, if I cough or move OMG the pain. The biggest thing so far I would say is getting help after surgery. I got coverage for the kids and everything else, but not for me. I thought I would b able to fen for myself "wrong". Not sure how I'm going to do it, I guess hubby will have to b on double duty. Updated on 22 Dec 2016: I was able to see stomach and it looks amazing. The scar is in the perfect place, not too high not too low. Flat tummy and contoured amazing, if this is swollen WOW because it already looks almost perfect (besides drains). Doc Z is amazing, but her staff although very nice doesn't always returns calls (that was my only issue).I would highly recommend her: great skills and talks to you and makes you feel very comfortable. Updated on 27 Dec 2016: Feeling better and a little more Mobil. I started reading about others progress, so I decided not to try and get back to my routine, I should continue bed rest and take advantage that my hubby is helping with the kids. I am amazed how good the tt looks and the swelling is not so bad. I can't wait to see the Dr on Thursday and hopefully get drains out. Updated on 27 Dec 2016: Before my TT, I lost 120 lb with Bari artic sleeve that I had done 18 months prior to TT. I should have mentioned it since my first msg. Next Dec I plan on having arm lift and then all my transformation will be complete.

Updated on 12 Jul 2015: Ok so I am on post op day 2 and I suddenly get itchy around my breast area do any of you get that? I'm assuming that it is normal and it's nothing bad what do u guys think? Updated on 15 Jul 2015: Has anyone felt like your boobs are being pulled? I got my BR and I feel good , the only thing is that I feel like somebody is pulling the top skin of my boobs and the bottom skin of my boobs together. Is that normal? I kinda guess that is really what is happening and I have to get used to the new boobs lol, I hope tomorrow after my drains come out I will feel more normal Updated on 18 Aug 2015: I'm a little over due it has been 6 weeks since my surgery, I have to most my after pic for the BR community
She does really good repair and contour but my scar is in the middle of my stomach. Yes, I said that, the middle of my stomach. I was told I would have a low scar that would atleast fit in my pants but my scar is literally 3 inches higher than that. It is so embarrassing I still can't wear a bathing suit or anything like it after spending 8100. Updated on 25 Feb 2016: Ok so I spoke with my doctor and was completely honest and she's been so caring and willing to help. My skin is less swollen and is more lax. I feel better about it after speaking with her and I do think she has a good head and heart. Updated on 14 Nov 2016: Now that I'm almost a year post op I can now see that my scar is going to stay high. I can only speak for myself and my experience. My scar is almost in the middle of my stomach, not symmetrical and is 24 inches long. I did discuss this with her and the office but I have not been contacted since a few months after my surgery. I feel like I've been forgotten about and my concerns were pushed onto the back burner.
