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.

Answer: Feel scared after breast reduction surgery… Congratulations on having undergone the breast reduction procedure. At this point, patients commonly experience significant "emotional ups and downs". Remember that it is much too early to evaluate the outcome of the procedure performed. The anxiety that patients experience at this stage of their recovery most often ends up being unnecessary, longer term. My best advice: patience. Best wishes for an outcome that you will be very pleased with regardless of specific cup size achieved. In my practice, I asked patients not to communicate their goals or evaluate the outcome of the procedure performed based on the achievement already certain cup size.

Answer: Early results look great and as for your dream results, I hope you informed your surgeon of what your goals were. As mentioned prior, focus on healing and realize that the rough edges along your incisions will improve with time and in most situations, flatten completely. If you're still too large, liposuction can easily be done in the office down the road to further diminish your size. Talk to your surgeon and keep him/her informed of any concerns you may have.
