Last Friday (sept 16) I had a breast lift and my implants removed. I am scheduled to get my drains out on Wednesday (sept 21). I am wondering how long I will have to wear this ace bandage as a bra? Will I change to wearing a cotton bra like I wore after getting the augmentation with lift? When I went for my post op today my breasts were a little smashed to the side, will this change?
I had my implants removed and breast lift revised last Friday (today is wednesday) I still have my drains in and am wrapped in an ace bandage. I go to get my drains out tomorrow but I'm wondering how long I'll have to wear this bandage or will I be switched to a front closing cotton bra like the one I wore after my augmentation with lift?
I don't know the specific volumes. I was a 32A and I went to a 32D with my implants. They were saline. The incision was below my breast. My doctor did not direct me to wear any type of compression bandage or bra. However, my breasts are loose and swinging, and it feels uncomfortable. It also seems to go against what most recommend on this forum. I think the bottom will rest against my incisions, but it isn't painful. Thanks!
I just had a capsulectomy and breast explant today they did not put an Ace bandage around me at all simply a very loose bra to hold the drain bags. Isn't it in my best interests at they should have wrapped me tightly with a bunch of a spanned age? Thank you in advance for the help
Ok so it's day 5 since my explant and I've just taken my ace wrap off and put on a well fitted sports bra. My left breast I'm happy with however my right one looks not great. The nipple sinks in a little and is a lot more wrinkly. I know it's only day 5 but do you think This is permanent?
Had my surgery yesterday. I was not bandaged up or wrapped to compress my chest. Is this normal? Every journey I've read on this site have been tightly wrapped up for at least 48 hours. I've come home and put a tight non wired non padded sports bra on. Feel alot more supported now. Just wondered why my plastic surgeon chose to leave me this way? I had my surgery on the nhs in England. Any advice with what I should be doing right now would be very helpful. Not due to see my Ps for 1 week now.
