WORTH IT$7,200
Hey everyone ;) so wanted to start by saying thanks for the prayers and thoughts ;). Ok so got to drs and he said wow u look great. He did say he say what u was talking about and how he could see why I might have thought it was puss and how I could have thought the red red part was infected. He said the white part is like a inner scab that it's white because it's been kept moist due to the neosporin. He said had it been dry it would b an actual scab. He said yes the incision on my right breast is more red then the other but again due to the moistness he said that the actual insicion is so small that with how while my boobs are (hahah) that there won't be a scar I will b able to really see unless ur super close which was great great news lol. He did say to continue the neosporin and the scar cream. I really don't want to (but will of course) only because I want it to dry like my lefty lol. On the other hand my boobs are rounding out and my left is finally getting smaller to match my other side ;) I hope u are doing good! And can I just say how aswome this whole site is! The fact that I can't take this journey with all of u and the fact that we all have eachother is truly somthing special! Xoxo

Hi ;) well where do I start. I went to Dr Kerr for a consultation to get a BA and a lollipop lift and loved him right away! Not just him but all of his staff. My husband still wanted me to get a few more consultations (even tho I knew he was the one) so I did and sure enough Dr Kerr was still my first pick. So I asked to meet with him again and without any question they set me up another appt. Dr Kerr went over everything and answered all my questions and did not leave until I was done asking my questions. What I liked also is that he was super honest and that's what I want, I want someone to do what's Gona be the best for me not what I think will be the best. And I can't tell u enough how amazing his staff was. They are so amazing!! They got back to me right away. Even tho I called a million times they never got irritated with me. every time I called it just reassured me that I was picking the right place. So then the day of surgery he was early! Which u never see from a dr. He was ready and super happy ;) that made my nerves go away. He answered more questions I had lol. When I had woke up from surgery he told my husband everything which was awesome! Then later that night he called me personally can u believe that he called me personally to see how I was! I thought that was amazing!! The next day there was some blood (found out it had been there) he answered his phone right away and reassured me everything was ok! I have sense referred this dr to my mom and friends. I do plan on having more surgeries and he will be the dr I go with forever. Dr Kerr is the doctor I will always choose. He is so professional and his work is amazing! I have never seen such amazing work. My boobs look better then I ever thought they could!! Thank you so much Dr. Kerr you changed my life in a good way and I will forever be thankful to you and ur staff! You are the best doctor out there!!

Hi mandymae glad everything's turned out for u xx looking good hon [RS bleep] love the pic in the white singlet that's what I've always wanted to look like on a singlet x
Your doctor explains things so well. That's great for easing your mind on the concerns you've had. Your results are one of my favorites, I don't think you need to go bigger. But I'm saying the same about my self. lol. Damn boob greed. lol

Incision might be infected :(

Hey u ;) I'm sorry I haven't been on in a couple of days and because of that I have yet to reply to anyone's comments I'm so sorry. It's been supper busy around here I have had an appt everyday. So today I have an appt with my PS because I think my left insicion my be getting infected. Everything was fine however at my 3 week post op when the dr took off the glue he accidentally pulled out two sitiches, well he said just two use neosporin twice a day for a week. My left side is healing great. My right side looks irritated and at the top of the incision it looks like the sitich is infected or something so this am he wants to see me. I pray everything is fine. Because of this it's making my scar look worse. Could all of u please pray for me today. Pray that everything goes well and that if it is infected that it clears up fast. Thank u xoxo. How r u all doing? How is the heing going? For all of u that haven't had the surgery yet I'm praying for u! I'm leaving right now for the drs appt when I get back I will respond to everyone's comments. I'm so sorry I haven't already ;) xox

I peeled a lot at 2-3 weeks too. I think because I had the tape on them? Hope everything is ok.
Yea it's so weird looking haha. Hey so thank god everything was ok! He said it's cause I'm keeping area moist due to neosporin and that it's suppose to look like that. THANK GOD! Lol. Thanks. How r u? I love ur pics!! U look awesome xo
Thank you! Glad everything went well at the Doctor's
Good luck at your appointment! I hope everything is okay.
Aww thanks girl! How r u? Ok so dr said everything looks as it should and that it's just like that because ok keeping it moist because of the neosporin. He said it will all be fine thank God!
Glad everything went well! I've been good, just slowly getting back to normal. I've started sleeping on my side again and I've been running most errands on my own now.
Praying all is well with you girl.your boobs are looking better and the one that was slanted is actually straitening out. Hope all is well, and waiting to hear from you;•}
Thank u! Urs prayers mean a lot! Yes thank god everything was ok he said. He said that that's my body healing. He did see what I was worried about and said for a non doctor it does look like it could be puss :// but it's not it's just my skin healing and that's it's white due to it being moist from the neosporin. I agree with u. My boobs are rounding out ;) my left is still a tad bigger but he said that could take 6 mo so that's cool. Xo
Good luck with everything at the doctors. I'm sure it will be fine, stay strong, and I will definitely keep you in my prayers.
Aww thank u!! It really means a lot when people pray for me. So thankfully everything went well at the drs. He said it's looking good he did say he could see why I was worried but that it's white because we are keeping it moist with the neosporin. He said in a couple of weeks it should b all closed up ;) thank u again! How r u? How r things going? Xo

I have a stitch sticking out on my vertical incision, it sticks out pretty far, it looks like clear fishing line. lol. I can see knots tied in it. I see my doctor on Tuesday, I will ask him about it. I wonder if its a spitting stitch, I've heard about on this site. I'm not worried about it because it seems to be common. I love how yours are looking, the shape on the top and bottom looks so natural. I have been focusing on nutrition for scar healing. We heal from the inside out, so I believe that what we eat has major influence on our healing. From all the reading I been doing it seems that protein, zinc, vit A&C are really important for healing. So I make sure I eat foods with these in them everyday. I have never been a healthy eater, until I booked my surgery, than I did a 360 and went holistic crazy. But I feel better than I ever have.
Yea girl I wouldn't worry about it. I'm sure it will be fine. Sometimes I've heard that's when the body is pushing it out (which is a good thing ) I feel blessed as far as scar my line is so light and think it looks darker in pic for some reason but I'm very fair skin as u can see (I do tan well but have stayed out of sun due to all the meds) and dr said with my skin it should barley be noticeable ;) but I look at it this way I would rather have a small scar and love my boobs then no scar and hate them the way I did b4 ;). I totally agree with u on the eating thjng. And I take to a of vitamins everyday and have forever ;) do ur insicions hurt when u massage? Has ur dr told u to massage yet? That's the only thjng I hate about massaging is that my incisions hurt. Not the actual boob or implant just the inscion site. But I have noticed if I massage a lot durning day I wake up in less pain the next am ;) other then the stitch how r u feeling?
Noooo, I haven't massaged yet. I'm afraid that's gonna freak me out, but I know my time is coming. I go back to the doctor this Tuesday, he will let me know. I try not to touch them at all. They are so sensitive. I lightly put coconut oil on them because my skin feels so tight. I can barely stand to do that, so I don't know how Im gonna be able to massage them. lol.
I don't feel any pain in the morning like everyone talks about, but I have zaps and stings in them all day. Not constantly, mostly when I laugh. Its not painful, its just weird feeling.
My doctor put me on a special diet before and after surgery. I agree with you. Food makes a huge difference.
Its great that you had a doctor to give that advice. My doctor didn't, I just learned about it all my own, by reading and reading and reading. lol. Seriously I read for hours a day about it.
STRATAMED cream is best x no underwire for at least 12 months bio oil puts a film over the scaring that can cause pimple like lumps and can turn to infection x no oil at all is recommended x just scar cream [RS bleep] I'm so healed I'm allowed after 7 days of mad healing I've got the go to have my bed party time back [RS bleep] thank got a woman can't live on water alone I need my meat ( hubby) sitting I between his legs and he massages as he's stronger than me xx hope u girls r ok and any questions ill be glad to ansaw as my surgeon is sensational awesome job and I've leart heaps and well educated on boobjobs now xx I've never looked at boobs and the past month that's all I've done lol xxxx
Hahahah ur so funny!! Sorry I haven't been on here! Yea all I'm using is scar cream and neosporin per my dr. I'm so nervous to have any (party time in bed) lmao. I haven't even let my hubby feel them. I think it's cause of my incisions. I feel super uncomfortable. I'm wondering when I will fill ok. My poor hubby I know he wants to touch hahA. Yea I'm stuck wearing a sports bra for almost 2 more months ugh. Lol thanks girl!! Xox
What?! U don't? Sorry I haven't been on here for a few days. Omg every morning I wake up with painful tight boobs. Of corse it's getting better but some days are worse then others. How r u!?! Xo
4 hours you forgot you had them? lol. I was just thinking about that today. I was out all day with my family, helping my mom move. I didn't lift a thing, I just held the door for everyone. The whole time, I was only thinking about my chest. lol. When no one was around, I would unzip my top a little to take a peak. lol. I actually thought to my self, "I wonder if there will ever be a day, that I forget I have them" Ohhh my gosh, so funny. lol
HahHah. Yep well almost 4 hrs. I watched a movie and then hung out with my aunt and talked about make up and just small chit chat and I was moving around like I didn't even have them. Usually I'm feeling them aka massaging them. Going in bathroom and looking at them. Doing somthing to them and for a while I didn't for those few hrs there was no sharp pains, no zaps to my nips hahah nothing. That was short lived lol cause just this eve I lifted somthing heavy and closed the trunk door to my SUV (my big suburban) lol and now I have so pain but hey it was nice not having pain for a while ;);) It's a good thing u didn't lift anything ;) ur so funny lol believe me girl I'm like that everyday all day hahah. Today was so weird ;) I'm glad ur feeling better xoxo
I seem my incisions today 1 week post op and they look great x I did do a whole pic and word review and my stupid phone lost it gggrrr
OMG!! I hate when that happens ugh lol. I'm glad everything is healing well! Xo
You look so great! So natural and great shape. I'm 6 weeks today and my scars feel like yours. I'm wondering the sam,e thing. Hopefully, with time they will soften up and smooth out more. I am moving too annd had to lift things. I feel ok, tried not to lift anything too heavy, but it's hard. I am not in any pain,so I guess everything is ok!
Aww thank u. A lot of people are saying how nice my shape is and how natural it is. The funny thing is as much as I appreciate it I really kind lol wanted the fake look. Not to big but the rounder look and the round part and the top but I think because I couldn't go bigger and because I'm thicker it doesn't show like thiner girls. Oh u better be careful I would hate for unto hurt ur slef ;) wow no pain! I have pain twice a day..once in am and once around 5pm. Yes I hope my scar gets softer I heard it will. I just would hate for my hubby to squeeze them and feel that tissue lol
I wanted mine to be rounder on the top too. I kept telling the doc how I wanted them to look so natural, but now when I see those cute skinny girls with all that fullness on top, I wish mine were fuller up there too. But, I am really happy with the outcome. They look so nice now, it just took over a month!!
Girl my nurse had told me my internal stitches wldnt start dissolving until a month. Some places on mine I can still feel some stitches so don't be worrying about that part. I think you look awesome for three weeks out!!;•}
Hey. Oh really. Now can u feel like stiff tissue under the sitiches? Or has it all softened? Yea I'm hoping it goes away. Aww thanks girl! What's ur plans for the 4th? I hope ur doing well! Xo
