7-9 day update

Healing has progressed smoothly for me. Initially, I relied on stronger medications but transitioned to Tylenol within a few days. I haven't even required Tylenol for several days now. The discomfort mainly stems from the surgical bra irritating the tender incision site. I found that inserting a cut-up thick sock as a cushion has significantly improved comfort. Sleeping at a 60-degree angle has been manageable thanks to a wedge from Amazon, paired with my old breastfeeding and pregnancy pillow for support. Getting in and out of bed has been a challenge due to sore ribs from the internal mesh. However, by day 7, swelling in my abdomen has notably reduced. Although I still experience swelling in my sternum and breasts, it's gradually diminishing. The current spacing of my breasts seems off, but my doctor reassured me that it should correct itself once swelling subsides, muscles relax, and implants settle. On day 9, my breasts are beginning to feel softer. I've noticed a bumpy area near the incision site, possibly from internal stitches or mesh, but haven't received clear insight from the office despite their responsiveness to post-op inquiries. While I met with a PA at one week post-op, I won't see the surgeon until one month. The most challenging aspect for me is restricted arm movement; I'm eagerly awaiting clearance for some mobility. To support my healing process, I've been proactive with red/blue light therapy, mild hyperbaric oxygen therapy, juicing, and maintaining a nutrient-rich diet. Overall, I'm feeling great!

Subfascial Breast Augmentation

I had such an amazing experience today with Dr. Davila and his team! I underwent Subfascial Breast Augmentation using Mentor implants under local anesthesia, opting out of general anesthesia. I didn't know what to expect as this was my first surgery but enjoyable was definitely not on my spectrum of ideas! Surprisingly, the surgery was quite comfortable, with only sporadic slight jolts every now and then to which was remedied immediately with additional numbing meds. Dr. Davila's bedside manner was exceptional; he calmly talked me through every step of the the procedure in laymen terms and the rest of the time felt like catching up with an old friend. His warmth and down-to-earth nature were comforting and created a calming environment. The second assisting doctor was equally fantastic and added to the overall quality of the experience. They were both great at keeping the conversation flowing which made time fly by. From a technical standpoint, Dr. Davila listened to my preferences regarding the natural look I desired. Kristen, the PA, and Crystal, the nurse, were also incredibly warm and kind and brought good vibes into the OR. Despite being only a few hours post-op, I feel remarkably well, I have some swelling and pain but it's very manageable. I feel so good that I have keep having to reminding myself I just had surgery and to take it easy. I'll be providing updates on my recovery periodically. Overall, wonderful experience all around and I would highly recommend Dr. Davila and team to everyone!
