Scar cream
Here is the scar cream given to me by the PS.
Almost 4 week photos
So here I am at the almost 4 week mark. Things are healing nicely, and there's not much I need to do at this point except wear a tight sports bra day and night. Soon I will start using the scar cream on the scars on my creases. The PS gave me bioCorneum scar cream to use on the scars once the surgical glue fell off. The area where the drains entered are still a little raw so I have been waiting to use the cream until those areas heal. I will post a photo of the scar cram box. In the photo where I am bending over you can see the significant size difference. I am wearing a soft cup inside my bra on that side to balance things out. Overall, I think I have a great result and I know things will still change/improve over time. I am at least 20 pounds overweight and having this surgery has motivated me to try to lose weight. I have tried for years without success. I truly believe that the implants had something to do with that. I gained weight almost as soon as I got the implants at age 25, and steadily put on weight as the years went by. Diet and exercise had little if any affect and eventually the fatigue became so bad I gave up on exercising. I am hoping now that the toxic endocrine disrupters have been removed that I will be able to lose some weight!
3 Week Mark
Today is 3 weeks post explant. Each week keeps getting better and better! I don't think I mentioned before that my scars are in the crease beneath my breasts. The surgical glue came off last week and the scars are healing nicely. I am wearing a tight sports bra during the day and the surgical bra at night. I am not yet sleeping on my stomach, which is my favorite position. I'll ask my doctor about that when I go for my follow-up on the 11th. I cannot swim until the 4 week mark, which has been challenging for me this summer. I still feel a little soreness in the left breast which had the larger implant. Occasionally there are some weird twinges like the nerves are regenerating themselves. One of my breasts is significantly larger than the other. That was the case before I got implants. It does bother me a bit, but I am wearing the foam cup from another bra inside my sports bra on the smaller side and you cannot tell there is a difference. I feel light and free without the implants and I am still very happy I had the surgery.
