42, 5'5" 130 Breast Reduction with Lift and Biological Mesh

This was the best decision I’ve made. I’m very happy with my results, my recovering is going well. I am very happy with my doctor, his staff and the hospital I was at.

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.

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.
