Day 26: Post-op
WORTH IT$7,400
Just wanted to do a quick update today. So happy that my swelling is disappearing and everything is softening up. After another visit to PS and some final glue/stitch removal. The incisions to me are looking great! Also managing to get back into working out so not feeling as slobbish. Feeling good :D

Missing Period?
Has anyone else not had a period since their breast reduction surgery? I’ve just realized I’m now on week 6 of no period ????

Scar Treatment?
Hi Ladies, Now been to my third post-op appointment and have been given the green light on starting scar cream/gels. What do you recommend? My PS mentioned a few, one being Mederma and said to stick to silicone based ones. However, it doesn't look like Mederma has any silicone in it, but it does have good reviews. Happy to take suggestions on what you are all using so I can purchase tonight/this weekend. Anyone using Mederma? Good results? Anything will help! Thanks! :D

Hey! You look great. I am 5 days post op, and have had bandages on the whole time so havent seen anything yet! Got my first post op appointment on Monday. So scared to see them!
Did you have a free nipple graft?

In the beginning I uses a thick vitamin E cream, then alternated with vitamin E Oil or coconut oil, simple ingredients no perfumes, and then regular massage with pressure to make sure the scars stay supple. It worked -At 8 weeks I have a faint red/ pink line where the scars are. I went to look at bras the other day and picked up 6 different styles in 1 size, they all fitted perfectly. I have never felt so happy ! I walked out and bought none of them. It just felt so good :)

My PS recommended cocoa butter w/vit E. I personally prefer bio-oil, a little goes a long way. Others use silicone strips like Scar Away or Embrace. You could also try Biocorneum or Silagen. Just a few I heard of on here from other RS users. Good luck! ❤️
