6.5 wks post op, no Restrictions

So I went to my 6wk postop appt a few days ago. I was told that all restrictions are lifted and I started working out. I was super disappointed to realize how weak I am lol.
I was told that my right boob will catch up to my left boob. She said the muscle is just thicker and tighter so it is taking longer to drop.
My nipple sensitivity is back to normal! It’s such a relief.
So I’m just massaging them regularly and applying scar cream once a day.
The gap between by breasts does still bother me. (TO BE CLEAR IM NOT BLAMING THE SURGEON, my anatomy only allows for so much cleavage and that was explained to me before surgery) I can’t tell if it is a normal gap or if it is significantly larger than normal. Please feel free to weigh in with your honest opinion. Thank you!

5 wks postop

Here’s a group of new photos from today, 5wks post-op. Sorry for the lighting.

My right boob is still a tiny bit behind my left boob in healing and dropping. I am right dominant so I’m not worried about that, I’ve been told everything will catch up. Looking at these pics, it seems more obvious than it does in person .

Pain is 1000% better. I’m still a little sore in a weird way, but I don’t need Tylenol or anything. It’s mostly just after I wake up. My nipples and skin are still extra sensitive but I’ve gotten good at dealing with it. All hail the nipple donut lol.

One thing I am so so happy with is the way my nipples look now. Before surgery they were pointed outwards, now they are straight on. I wasn’t expecting that and I’m so happy about it.

I am feeling MUCH better!

My nipples are still sensitive but my skin has calmed down. I found a bra + nipple donut combo that works. The nipple donut is just a piece of foam cut to size with a hole for my nipple. This prevents them from being compressed in the bra.

I was told that my incisions looks good at my last appointment. There is a stitch protruding but it is not coming out (yet) so we are leaving it alone. It has been getting better, slowly, but we think it will keep getting better and fix itself before it pops out. Now that I have a seamless, size L bra it hasn’t been a huge issue.

I am not taking any pain meds anymore. Yay!

I am definitely still happy with them and feeling better about them every day.
