Not too much going on, I'm still pretty numb but mostly on the left side. I have some pain in the numb area so hopefully that means things will be back to normal at some point. So happy I did this, I can't believe the difference from the first day! I kept seeing results that were pretty nice from right off the bat so I was a little scared! So this is for the ladies who come out looking crazy haha

Scars at 6.5 weeks PO

So I'm a half hippy and love essential oils. So far I've been using coconut oil with patchouli, tea tree and lavender oils and massaging. The scars do feel less bumpy than when I started (my tape and stiches were in for 4 weeks) and they aren't red, but holy moly the left looks SCARY. I really hope this thing heals semi ok. I knew from the second I woke up that my left felt different. I had this weird bruise on my side way far away from my boob and it had a small scab in it. I was too out of it to remember to ask at my day after appointment and because my ps was out of country I didn't see him until 4 weeks and it was clear he had zero clue who I was when I asked what happened with my left side. All is well now so It really doesn't matter much. I put some micro pore tape on today so maybe that will help too. Any tips are welcomed!!

Wow, I can't believe you got 600cc! They don't even look huge, I mean obviously they're big, but I thought if I went that big I'd look ridiculous. ..you have almost my exact stats. I'm 5'3" 120lbs, 31yo. But a deflated 32dd pre op. In a push up. ..I can't tell you the last time I wore a wireless non padded bra. ..when I was 17, pre kids I think! Anyway, you look good! I'm so indecisive about how many ccs to get. Was thinking 400, im going for a full natural ish, look. ..on the larger side, like scarlett Johansson. ..you look great!

Thank you!! I freaked out when I got home from my pre op because I googled 600cc's. Then I realized that the sizers looked awesome and I was so happy as soon as he put them in. I talked myself down and I'm so glad I did! It's super hard not to do, but I suggest not focusing on CC's until you see sizers on.

Loved reading your review as I had a tummy tuck with Dr Paulson in January and had a consult with him at my 6 week checkup for a BA as well. I think I might go see Dr Honeycutt before I decide for sure whether or not to go with him again :)

I would say his amazing nurses make up for his rushed post op appointments. I'm happy with my results so I think I would feel comfortable going back for sure

Yea his bedside manner isn't stellar, but I do think he is very skilled and that's what matters the most!

Thanks!!! Thank goodness I took pictures of the sizers or I probably would have chickened out and not been as happy with the outcome!
