Surgery was last Tuesday, had breast lift and augmentation with 280 cc on left and 300 on right, dr had a hard time getting the size even and surgery ended up taking over 6 hours, breasts still look a little strange to me but I'm giving it some time, I have had no problems with them,pain has been minimal and they seem to be healing well,putting polysporin on incisions and lipo sites a few times a day,Dr ended up doing lipo to my entire lower back,flanks,upper stomach and armpit area,those areas have been the most painful,I have holes everywhere!Im not complaining though,I wanted him to lipo as much as possible,I switched compression garments yesterday from the one the dr gave me to a spanks from target,it looks like a high waisted panty,comes up right below my breasts,I broke a sweat putting it on this morning,lol,but so much more comfortable than the one with the zipper,I have bruises and broken skin from the other one,my lower back is numb and it hurts at the same time if that makes any sense at all,I went to a movie Saturday night and leaned up against the wall for a moment and could not feel the wall at all,so weird! I'm still swollen on my back so it still hurts a lot,the tummy area doesn't hurt anymore,just if I'm standing too long or cough or sneeze and laughing is a no no,oh my word it hurts so bad it will bring you to tears! No funny movies for a little while,I am happy that I did the surgery,it's just tough not being able to take care of my family like I want to but I'm trying to be patient.

Yeah, recovery takes a while from all I've read. you look to be doing great at just 6 days post op! I keep reading that lipo is what really hurts most, but it will pass. you can't take care of your family like you used to - not for a while longer - you just had major sx and must let your body do its healing work. All the best and do keep healing smoothly :)

Take it easy and rest up so you can keep healing well. Lipo is what really hurts most, but that contouring is so worth it :)
