WORTH IT
Im a 54 year old cancer survivor. Had a breast lift 5 weeks ago? I have had a few complications due to side affects of radiation treatment. My surgeon has had to go back and remove some spots that haven't healed properly, I can't wait to see them completely healed. I would have this surgery again in a heartbeat! Very pleased with my results so far.

Wound treatment
It's been 3 months now since my surgery. Still very pleased with how they look compared to before. My surgeon had to refer me to a Wound Care Specialist because of a spot on my right breast, this one had complications due to radiation. It's about the size of a ritz cracker and would not heal no matter what he did. I've been laying in the hyperbaric chamber for weeks now & can see significant changes in the wound. Hopefully I only have a few more weeks left & it will be completely healed. I posted a pic, not comfortable yet showing my wound uncovered, but will post another after I'm healed. Thank you so much for all your support!
P.S. I would do it all again!

I'm getting a BL tomorrow morning (no implants but with a fat transfer from my upper inner thighs). Excited but a little nervous!

I'm doing a little better, thank you for asking! It's just going to heal very slowly, I have to be patient. I hope everything is going ok with you!

That sounds like progress, hang in there and focus on the end result. You already look amazing! My BL surgery went well, I'm day 6 post surgery. My tape is going to be removed on Friday, let the scar treatment begin! Lol. Take care.

Thank you so much, and I'm so happy your surgery went well! Even with the scars I have now, they look so much better than before! I'm going to post before pics from before surgery. Huge improvement! Take care & rest, rest, rest!
