GOING IN FOR A REVISION

  • 11 Sep 2021
  • 7 years post
I am going to be going through another metamorphosis in January. I am getting my breast implants removed and replaced. I initially went in for a consult to just get the girls upgraded because, dammit. I want it. But it was there that I discovered that my 1st doctor made a minor error which turned something I wanted to do, into something I needed to do. I will be undergoing a complete revision of my original 2014 breast augmentation and upgrading these girls to where mother nature should have when puberty hit at 13. This does not come without risks. This will be my 14th surgery since 2005 and to say I am worried is an understatement. but, if I do not get this done, my original work will create a uniboob that will cost even more to fix. I am very excited but nervous, and will be looking to you all for support!

I had my 6 week post op appointment today and my doc says I am healing very nicely! He also said my scars look good and will eventually be basically invisible :) He took some photos today so I got to see a side by side and all I gotta say is WOW! Whenever I start feeling down about not going bigger I will just look back at this picture and I will feel better seeing as the difference is pretty big!

6 weeks post op today :)

6 weeks! Wow has time flown by! ok, so I am feeling better regarding my size now seeing as I know I really don't and wont have the resources to do it again and go bigger. Maybe someday, but for now, I can live with a 2 cup increase in size :) I still have some tenderness on the outside near my armpits, but not too bad, the scars have smoothed out and are just red now and after seeing my many other scars heal up, I know that in about a year they will be nearly invisible. I have my 6 week post op appointment on Wednesday, so I am anxious to hear what he has to say about my progress. Hopefully he will let me out of this silly surgical bra finally! I doubt it, he was pretty insistent on the 3 months. I would really like to just wear an unpadded demi bra, I have one I bought from VS that is really comfortable that I will wear once in a while for a couple hours just to put something less constricting on, but... I doubt he will give me the ok lol. Oh well. If it keeps everything in place and lets me heal without complications then I guess I will live for another 6 weeks. I posted some pics that show how I am sitting now, the one pic in the tank is in the unpadded demi bra. I am still small, but not nearly as small as I was and now I feel like I am much more proportionate than I was! Talk to you all later!!

Dr. Rand was amazing. His staff and nurses were wonderful and the facility was warm and welcoming. My only complaint was that their online ad for out of town clients was a bit misleading. It said hotel and limo accommodations and specialized nursing care would be provided. What they failed to mention was that this was all out of pocket if I wanted it. So it ended up being a bit of a hassle to get there and spend the extra money on a hotel and taxi. That is my one and only complaint. ***UPDATE*** It is 2021 and I have since learned that my right implant has began to migrate towards the center of my chest, creating a Uni-boob. My new surgeon expressed his concerns that he believes the right pocket was made too large which has caused this. I never received a one year follow up from Dr. Rand, and when I called to schedule it, his receptionist told me it was not needed. I believe that if I had gotten this follow up appointment that his mistake would have been found. Now it is going to cost me substantially more to correct this mistake. He also told me I could not go to a larger size due to my chest wall, my new doctor told me that this is not true and that I could have gone to the size I really wanted but was talked out of in 2014.
