6 weeks post surgery

I had my six week review and started using a silicone gel on my scars, which are looking great. The six week review was with one of the clinics cosmetic nurses I think? It wasn't one of the surgical nurses and I think the whole appointment was just an upsell on scar revision laser? They over genesis laser which I'm not interested in as my scarring is looking great. The nurse couldn't answer my question about underwire, which was completely fine as she called the surgeon to find out and called me back after my appointment - and I also have the aftercare number for the surgical nurse. I just thought it was an odd appointment.
Implants are settling nicely and I'm getting used to the asymmetry.
The pain and hypersensitivity is pretty much just in my nipples now and isn't affecting me day-to-day.
I'm back at full duties at work and haven't had any issues. I haven't done any real exercise yet (I just didn't do anything during recovery because I was working a lot and didn't want to overdo things) but I'm hoping to go swimming this week.
I did have some issues with the office in terms of getting my paperwork for light duties for work. To be honest, the clinic is absolutely terrible at the administration side of things. They're lovely in the office and on the phone, and I'm not complaining about the after-care, but getting quotes and getting my paperwork was like getting blood from a stone. My friend is using the same surgeon and she's having the same problem.
I also got a call from Motiva about a week ago saying I hadn't paid for my implants - I don't think this has anything to do with Dr. Ingram's office, but it certainly contributed to the overall impression of messiness. I told motiva the say I'd paid over the phone and they said they'd sort it out and haven't called back.

3 weeks post surgery

I had my 3 week review and everything looks good so far. I got my dressings off and my incisions look great! They're so small.

The hypersensitivity is still terrible, and I've been wearing cotton/bamboo shirts under my bras and padding them with combine dressings. It helps a bit. It'll pass!

I'm back at work on light duties, which is okay - I get a bit sore towards the end of the day.

2 weeks post-surgery (chafing hell)

The pain from the surgery itself is completely gone (I think) and the main issue now is that my nipples and most of the skin on my breasts is hypersensitive AF. The chafing from the bras is insane and unfortunately painkillers don't touch it. But hypersensitivity is normal and it'll pass!

Right now I'm wearing a soft cotton t-shirt under my bra which seems to be the best solution. I've tried everything! I'm using bepanthan (nipple cream), I tried duoderm dressings, hyperfix, cotton wadding. Nothing works too well unfortunately!

My bellybutton is basically healed - it's still scabbing a teeny bit, but I'm keeping it covered until my review in a few days. I still can't wear pants that button at the waist because it irritates the area.

My boobs are dropping! Not evenly yet, but hopefully they'll get there.
