42, 5'5" 130 Breast Reduction with Lift and Biological Mesh
Gregarious5421January 18, 2020
I have been wanting this surgery for over 15 years. Since I have had children my breasts starting to sag so badly that now I am experiencing arthritis in my neck. I currently wear a 34G and 30H in other brands. My doctor is putting a biological Mesh in my breast so they can hold up better. Has anyone had this used before, I would appreciate any feedback? My insurance is covering the procedure with my doctor taking out 338G in each breast. At this point, I just want to comfortable and out of pain. If anyone has my size breast, I would be curious as to what size you ended up after surgery? My surgery is Jan 20th. I am so grateful for my doctor for getting my procedure approved.

My surgery was around 5 hours, it was a long first day but everything went well. I went into my doctor the next day for a check up. He said I’m good until next Tuesday. I have bandages and tape and compression bra on until than. I also have have 2 lines going into my breast one is for pain and one is a anti inflammatory. I I’ll get that out on Tuesday as well. My mother has been taking care of me and I must say I have followed my doctors orders strictly. Hardly any pain just feels like I have done lots of chest exercises. I’ve been off my pain meds for 2 days now. I will update next Tuesday.

Wow-wow! What a beautiful result!!! Congrats! Plus that your torso/ waist is sooo thin and beautifully contoured !
Your doctor is a wiz!
Looking again- love-em:)- through your pix, there are some mark-ups below your boobs/ on each side of your abdomen, in pic 8/13. Is that for abdomen lipo?
Also did you get any 'side-boob' or armpit lipo to get such a beautiful chest ??

Hi, I am in the process of getting my date! I am learning so much and I am super thankful to this community for their expertise and good will in sharing!.
What is a pico?
January 30, 2020
How exciting for you, can't wait for you to get your date for surgery. So I had two things the pico was for my incisions https://mms.mckesson.com/content/shop-products/product-resources-2/pico-system/. Than I had ON-Q pain relief system. That's where I had the 2 Lines going into each breast. One was pain medicine and one was an anti inflammatory. I think that's why I had hardly any pain. Only disadvantage I couldn't take a shower for 7 days. In the end well worth it.
