Nothing much to report. Breasts are still sore here and there. Scars are healing. Wish it would get lighter sooner but I really can't complain. I'm considering going a cup size larger but we will see. Right now my breast look prett natural. Without a bra you can't even tell I had them done at times. I was actually bigger when I was breast feeding. So here are my lasted pics.

Hi, I read your whole review. Thanks for all the details you gave before and after surgery. I just didn't see any of the photos and was hoping to view to look at Dr. Struck's work. But based on the comments, it sounded like he did a fabulous job. Congrats!

Hi ladies,
It's been a little over two months since I had my mommy makeover. I think I'm healing pretty well. Swelling has gone down quite a bit. Almost gone. I still have some numbness in certain spots on my right breast. I hope it come back. I'm feeling like I want to go a little bigger. I don't know. The dr. said you won't be able to tell unless you go up 100cc. But I only want to go up to 475cc. I want that in each breast I don't want one smaller implant anymore. I don't feel that there was much if a difference to begin with. I have 425cc left and 450cc right currently. My belly button is starting to heal a bit better. I was having redness and irritation for a while. The TT scar itself is great. It's thin and healing quite well I think.

Mommy makeover Healing Update

Hi RS ladies, it's been a while since my last post. I had some splitting stitches that were causing me grief here and there and I was swelling a lot so I didn't feel like posting anything new. I also went on vacation so it's been quite a busy time for me. Today I actually had some time so I'm updating my healing process thus far.

I am a little concerned about my breast as I feel like each breast is taking on different shapes. I do have a think scar under the right breast whichever dr. says is pulling the breast. He told me to pinch the scar to break up the hard scar tissue that was formed. It has even working and I can feel it getting smaller. It has been about 2 weeks.

Other than that, my TT scar is healing nicely. I did get a few tiny infections from the stitches splitting at various spots on the TT, but overall I'm pretty happy with my TT. Oh, i do hope that my vertical scar will fade????. From the pictures it looks dark, like I have a butt in the front too. In person the scar is not that dark. I've started using scar treatment cream. My dr. didn't think I needed to do the silicone gel. Anyway, here are some pics of my progress:-)

I sure hope so. I thought I had enough loose skin but I guess not bc it's still pretty tight now. Thank you!

It's good that it's tight. Just try massaging your tummy area consistently...!
