So.......about that rash and oh look some bras!
ITCH! ...did I mention that? holy mother of itchiness. We are talking wake up in the night scratching itch. I do not recommend searching the internet for what could be causing said itch, it will only scare you or scar you. Everything from scabies to a rare form of cancer can cause incredible itchy rashes. So off to the dermatologist I go, she listens to my tale of woe and looks at them (from a distance I might add) and says "I suspect it is a folliculitis, possibly fungal" whoo ok that was on my list, and a hell of a lot better than scabies! (burrowing mites) sounds delightful eh? so she gives me Diflucan to take twice, now mind you this was two days ago I took the first pill and now the second and when is the magic supposed to happen? *scratch scratch*
So on a recent trip, I went to victoria secret and tried on bras, First. Time. Ever. ...... and....disappointed. They just were not what I expected. Not at that price anyways. I liked them ok, but for 45$ plus, I want to LOVE them and feel sexy in them! not just "ok" so I start shopping on amazon, and these are what I find! LOVE LOVE LOVE and all at under 20$ each LOVE even more and COMFY love even more!!! so here are pictures of my rash and new bras!
3 months post op update!
For the most part, I love my results, but do have a few issues that eventually will need revision, my hips both have dog ears that poke out a bit giving me a little angular look to them, one has some puckering and wrinkling that I hope will smooth out as I resume exercising and eating healthier, the other has a hole where my skin healed around the drain tube.
I still have the itchy rash on my abdomen that began immediately after surgery. (annoying at the most)
I have one stitch spot on my right breast incision that continues to be tender and hard, I guess I need to get in to see the doc and check if there is a stitch in there aggravating the skin underneath.
Nipples have spread out a bit and aren't as small as they initially were after surgery, I still like them though and have heard that is common with larger implants and a donut lift.
I continue to massage my scar, if not every day then every other day. All in all, I am loving my new body more and more.
8 weeks and here comes the swelling again? Back to wearing binder.
I had stopped wearing the binder because I have a bad case of eczema on my abdomen, which I think is being exacerbated by wearing the binder. So I had to pick the lesser of two evils which for me right now is the swelling.
Provider Review
I just love Dr Jones @ Cascade Cosmetic Surgery. He truly is an artist and what he did for me is amazing. I feel like he really went the extra mile in giving me the figure I have always wished I had, I now have a beautiful curvaceous shape, a flatter stomach than when I was "young" and my breasts are perky, well shaped and delightful. Yay for boobs! He was very relaxed and discreet in his initial consult with me and totally put me at ease, I went to other consults and no one compared to him in his honest approach in what is possible for my body and the expectations I had and whether he could meet them (he in fact exceeded them). He made me feel good about the decisions I made regarding the size and shape I chose for augmentation and worked with the natural curves of my body to enhance and smooth and improve what I already had. Everything was, and is, as he described it would/could be. He did not candy coat anything, and went beyond my expectations, which I very much appreciated - especially in a plastic surgeon.
