Hello. I have been wondering how the monthly pms and swelling of breasts affect scars healing from a breast lift. My breasts increase around half to a full cup size around 7 days before my period (I can still fit into my normal bras but they are noticeably fuller). Will this have a negative effect on how scars heal? I can't imagine it's good to have this swelling return each month and fear it would result in wide, ugly scars.
Started C cup. 2020 Had breast aug w/lift Silicone Mentor moderate plus 300cc L, 325cc R above muscle. DD cup now. Complication on R w/more bleeding/swelling & have capsular contraction on right. Never liked projection or size. Contemplating explant w/lift vs implant exchange w/lift. Curious if natural breast tissue is now compressed from implants? If I replace implants, would like lowest profile & much smaller, possible? Chest diameter: 31 Breast diameter: 9, waist: 29, hips: 37. 5'11 150lb
Hi Im 7 weeks post lift no implants and have hard lumps one behind my left nipple and one long one under right breast. No pain but causing the left nipple to point out. Is it just delayed swelling or something else I dont see surgeon for another 2 weeks
I had a breast lift back in January and had a terrible hematoma in one breast. It swelled like crazy and took months for the bruising and swelling to go away. At my 6 month follow up, I still had swelling underneath the breast, which my doctor just cut off about 7 weeks ago. It feels like theres an indent in my breastwill this settle?
Im 5 weeks almost 6 post op. I had lipo 360, breast lift and tummy tuck. I noticed some hard spots on my side and then inbetween my breast i have this lump they are all hard? I dont go back to the doctor until june 6th. Just wondering if i need to get in sooner. Also could this be swelling from after removing my binder or caused by having it too tight. I know im supose to start wearing it a little less. My doctor said no reason to wear it after 6 weeks.
I am 32 and in good health and am very fit. If I have a tummy tuck and breast lift, in general how long will it take not just until I'm recovered enough to return to work and normal activities, but to actually look *good*? As in, good enough to wear a bikini and not have it be obvious that I just had major surgery done? (swelling down, scars fading, etc) I realize this is relative and may depend on a lot of factors, I am just trying to get a sense of what is normal.
My surgery was April 25th, I'm 5 days post op and I'm still swollen and my breast don't look like "breast" how long before the breast start to take shape? I was a small c cup before surgery and I have 400cc's on both Saline implants.
Hi. I had implant removal plus a reduction and uplift 7 weeks ago. I was a 34G cup and wanted a C cup. Im healing well and breasts are very symmetrical. They feel smaller and look much better but they still are large. Fed up with the support bras I went for a fitting today and was very upset to find Im a 34 E. I want to be able to buy pretty bras in normal sizes but today Ive had to buy the same type of large ugly bra that I wanted to get away from.. Could the size be swelling still or not?
I just got my breasts done 6 days ago, and I LOVE them. I am worried about them dropping after the swelling goes down. By dropping I mean sagging. I don't mind them going down in size. What should I expect in the next couple months and when will the swelling go down?
I prefer to not tell my teenagers that I'm getting a breast lift and small reduction. Will it be apparent to them during my recovery that I had surgery? Can I hide the pain and discomfort if it's mild? I have a pretty high pain tolerance. Is the surgical bra and swelling really noticeable? Maybe I should just tell them but that is the one thing holding me back... Thanks for your opinions.
