I had a breast reduction done Sept 2022 which resulted in hypertrophic/keloid scarring. I had a scar revision surgery April 2024 where they used blue removable stitches. Twice some stitches have been left behind, causing the skin to break or become spider veined and a red mark, my surgeon doesnt know. The surgeon has had to cut out the overgrown stitches (9+ weeks and 14+ weeks). Would it be possible to revise this again since new scars and irritation has formed with the forgotten stitches?
Im 58, 125-130, small frame and a 34DD. I have loose shoulder joints, arthritis in the shoulders, upper back/neck pain and skin irritation just to name a few of my issues. I go to the chiro weekly for adjustments, always focused on upper back/shoulders. Ive been to PT and seen an orthopedic for shoulder problems. My Gyn is also aware of my complaints and problems. I just want to sure I am fully prepared. Do insurance companies have a breast to body ratio?
I had a breast reduction a couple of months ago. Ive had very dry breast (no itchiness). Ive experienced skin irritation, tiny bumps or broken skin that starts oozing a brownish clear liquid. Ive been to the doctor previously and was prescribed pills and an ointment. It went away and it returned twice so far. This is the second time. Attaching photos. I put newgel+ on my incisions and Vaseline on my breast to keep them hydrated but it seems like its not enough. What can I do?
Whats going on here? (I see my surgeon in 2 days) Redness, two spots that look irritated. One has a tiny opening. Ive been healing so well- what a bummer. All my other incisions look calm and normal. Thoughts? No pain no fever no burning. One did leak like a tiny bit of a cream/beige color dot. Thats it tho. Could it be the silicone strips I just started last week??
I talked to my doctors (which I don't think to me serious about breast reductions) I do not think they documented any visits to them regarding the shoulder grooves neck and back pain, the bad oder and skin irritation under breast etc what do I need to do to get a reduction in mich if my doctors don't take me serious or document this? I don't run or do put a activity because of the strain it adds to my back pain and shoulders from the excess weight of
Help do I need a breast luft with or without implants or a reduction. My breast are deflated and I hate how sweaty and irritated my skin gets inbetween my breast. I want full perky breast with upper pole fullness.
3.5 weeks post BR. I have recently noticed over the last day or two my skin being quite dry and flaking in certain areas of my breasts. Of most concern near the vertical incision lines as they now appear wider to me and a lot redder/pinker. I have thin skin and am prone to eczema. I am currently using vitamin e oil and silicone gel twice a day for scar management.. I also had skin irritation from tape which seems to be ok now. Should I be concerned about this or just part of the healing process?
I am 24 yrs old 5'5weigh 240lbs. I am currently a 40HH. I have tried loosing weight and always gain it back. My breast only get larger the older I get. Big breast run in my family on both sides.
