How to care for a benelli or donut lift? When to start scar treatment or silicone sheets? When do they looking normal? (Photo)

April 30, 2016
Asked By:calimom4

I had a revision 700 to 580. The dr did a benelli /donut lift as well. Which is fine as I trust him. I just wasn't expecting it so I'm not sure how to take care of them. The info I have is for a augmentation. I had my 1 day post op, and go back in a week. I need extra advice. When will my breast start to look normal? When can you take a "full" shower? When do I start scar treatment? I've heard of Silicone sheets? When do I start massage? Anything else I should know to help the healing process?
