Lift and Implants After 2 Babies and Breastfeeding - Bay Harbor Islands, FL

So it's been 6 months since surgery and my breasts finally feel normal. My nipples are still somewhat numb, which worries me because I really had great nipple sensitivity before surgery. I can feel them being touched, but I don't actually have much feeling. And I'm hoping my scars will fade a LOT more. I've been using BioCorneum and silicone sheets. I am very happy with the results because ultimately got the perkiness that I really wanted. But, like I said, I'm still hoping for better fading of my scars.

Hi, thanks for sharing your story. You have a beautiful shape! I'm curious to know if you using the biocorneum and silicone sheets on different areas... or are you combining them? what brand of silicone sheets are you using?

I'm also using silicone sheets for my insicions (i.e. Newgel brand) including over my Areolas and I hope to get a good result. Of course only time will tell how effective my product is.

Thank you! I've been combining them. I'll do the Biocorneum, let it dry and then put on the silicone sheets. I buy a brand called Mepitac from Amazon.

Scars at 6 weeks 5 days

Not much change from last update, although I meant to mention that when I bend over to pick something up, as the implants move up on your chest, it feels soooooo weird! Anyone else have this sensation? If so, when did it go away? I usually press on hand on the top of my chest so that doesn't happen.
Anyway, here are my scars.

So natural and perky! I am having that movement feeling as well and hold my chest the same when bending and leaning. Would also like to know when that goes away!

Great! Looks like you are healing well.

Hello, I just wanted to post a quick update. My scars are healing nicely, and I've been keeping up with scar treatment. At the moment I have Mepitac silicone tape over scar treatment gel. The small section that was open is healing nicely and nipple sensation on my right side is back. My left breast is still feeling a bit numb and it is still slightly swollen, and my left nipple is still numb. But overall I'm very happy.

Beautiful! You are 2 weeks ahead of me! Mine are getting softer each week but still pretty hard... Are you experiencing the same thing? Have you started sleeping on your side? It is still uncomfortable because it is still so hard. Did you decide on strips vs biocorneum? If so what made you go with the strips? I got the biocorneum but was thinking of incorporating strips as well be diverse in the healing.

Well I just checked out your progress. Your breasts look amazing!!! Mine are also pretty hard still, but they're just starting to feel softer and squishier. And I'm still not comfy sleeping on my side. I love them, even though the left still looks bigger from swelling. BUT, big but, I should really have gone just slightly larger. I was a bra size 32F before surgery, and I'm still measuring that size. But I only got 200 cc implants, which is what I asked for. But I probably should've gone for 275 or 300cc instead. Just slightly bigger. But I am happy with them. As far as scar treatment, I'm doing the Biocorneum, I let it dry then I apply the silicone sheets. I've been doing that for two weeks. I'll post pics without the sheets to show the scars.

That's a relief to hear you are progressing the same ... I was starting to worry. They said cardio was ok after 3 weeks and I thought surely I could sleep on side by now if cardio was cleared to do. However, I still am not at a comfort level to do cardio so I'm going just going to be remain patient and not stress. They don't hurt sitting still but pressure and impact are another story. Your size looks great, but on the plus side if you eventually decide to go larger it will be a much easier procedure. The good part about not going larger is that it's easier to find bras and fit into clothes :). I really wanted to go smaller but the hubby liked the size of my natural ones... Oh the Sacrifices lol. Dr. Krau and him were joking about hubby slipping him some cash while I was under to go bigger lol. I can't wait to see your scars! .... That's a great idea about strips over cream. I will start doing that.
