Three days post implant removal. I removed under local and havent taken any pain meds. Day 2 I removed bandage and put on sports bra but noticed pink rash (super itchy) went to urgent care and they said contact dermatitis from bra or surgery prep solution. Taken Benadryl but no real improvement. Any ideas ?
I am Day 3 post explant of PIP ruptured implants and the capsular. My left breast is numb around the outer area. Still have feeling everywhere else including the nipple Is this normal? Could it be the bra is bound to tight? Any help highly appreciated. My follow up isn't until Tuesday 22nd 5 days time.
I contracted MRSA from tummy tuck & implant surgery in 2011. I now have to have the implants taken out due to capsular cotracture. I am TERRIFIED that the MRSA will return with this surgery. My surgeon is putting me on clindamycin 3 days prior to surgery & I will be on it for 10 days total. Is that a standard procedure for someone with my history? Are there any other precautions that should be taken? I am 54 & in good health otherwise.
62 years old. Implants placed 20 years ago, saline, on top of muscle. Drained by needle 1& 1/2 years ago. Enlarged lymph nodes under arm 2 months ago. Sac and scar tissue/encapsulated area removed 3 days ago. I chose to not get another implant or breast lift. I have a drain in each breast. Of course the breast appears fairly flat right now. Will the breast eventually fill in with fat tissue? If so, how long would it normally take? Thank you!
Had 32A 10 yrs ago before BA. Saline, smooth implants place sub muscular. 300cc left, 270cc right. Removed 3 days ago with capsulectomy. No complications with surgery. Drains still in place, but scheduled to be removed Monday. are the drains making the breasts look concave? will my breasts look anything like they did before BA 10 yrs ago? any fluffing? i don't want big, full ones, just normal looking tiny breasts like i had, not concave, inverted things on my chest :( Any thoughts?
I had a breast implant removal a few days ago. I hated them because they were heavy and when I was lifting something my breasts would look wrinkly and had a weird shape, it was under the muscle so it was because the muscle was moved. Now that they are out, my muscles are still doing the same thing, when I lift something, my breasts squeeze together and are moving sidewards, that looks aweful. This wasn't so before I had the implants, Is it going to be normal again, not moved by my muscles?
I have been told that ribs have to find its shape again too (not only breast tissue) Because implants behind the muscle push ribs backwards, Is that correct? How long does it take? Many thanks!
