3 weeks!

Time has flown by! Once I hit the 3 week mark, pain/soreness significantly decreased. I had periodic muscle spasms waking me up around the 2-2.5 week mark, but those have stopped and I’ve been sleeping through the night for the last several nights.
I don’t think my breasts have settled into their final form, but I do think they look and feel better than they did before the revision. I’m still waiting on the upper pole to smooth out, and for my chest muscles to relax, but so far I’m really happy I finally had this surgery. I had a very nice, smooth slope the day after surgery, so I’m confident/hopeful that I’ll look like that again once my muscles finally relax.
So far, my biggest challenge has just been reminding myself not to worry over every detail, but Dr Iteld’s practice has been great about answering my questions and helping me feel at ease. I go back on 10/9, and am excited for the one month milestone!

Update

I was feeling some shooting pains and sensations off and on the last several days, but yesterday and today have been much better. I have soreness in the upper pole of my right breast today, but it’s not terrible. I’m slightly worried that the implant might be riding up, but maybe it’s just swollen in that area right now.
The right side is the side I had capsular contracture on, and I’m noticing a slight upper fullness today along with this soreness. I took some pictures so I can compare and keep track of everything.

Week 1 Check

My one week appointment was great! Got my surgical tape removed, and everything’s right on track. Still sore here and there, but very happy that I’m healing well. I’ll go back in October for the next one!
I no longer have to sleep propped up, and I’m allowed to start using scar cream and wearing more comfortable bras. I’ve been on singular since surgery, and will continue taking for the next year in hopes of preventing capsular contracture a second time. Not much else to say, just relieved to be through the first week and regaining mobility.
