Week 2 and Scars
A few days ago I was able to take the tape off my scars and see them for the first time. Because I had my BA done through the bellybutton, my doc had to guess as to where my fold would be in order to place the scars. I think she did a pretty good job of the placement! I'm putting neosporin on them twice a day, and they seem to be healing well. I can't wait until I can use some scar-reducing lotion. I use a mix of carrot seed oil and argon oil on my breasts and chest, and it seems to be helping moisturize. I'm still happy with my decision!
Week 1
I'm a little late, but I had my first post-op appointment on Tuesday. They took out the stitches, said I'm healing well and to keep wearing a compression bra for another 2 weeks. I pulled a muscle in my left breast doing sit-ups the other day, so it's been a bit sore, but I'm just taking it easy on the strenuous workouts for now. Hopefully it heals soon.
I couldn't be happier with my decision to get them removed! I absolutely love my natural breasts, and so does my boyfriend. I feel much more confident about myself. That could also be because of age and being more mature than when I was unhappy with my body, but either way I feel great!
I can't wait to go bra shopping, but I'm holding out for more fluff. The doctor said I could start wearing regular bras around 3 weeks, so I'll definitely go shopping then! Although, I have to say, it's super comfortable to wear a sports bra all day long. I might not completely give that up ;)

Day 5
Still some liquid that jiggles around in my left breast, but otherwise I'm feeling good!
Provider Review
Dr. Ellen Janetzke
Dr. Ellen was amazing. She's so supportive and understanding. She listened to me and went over every option before helping me make my decision. She has very good bedside manner and is easy to talk to. Her staff is great! They made me feel so comfortable. I highly recommend Dr. Ellen!
