How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

High riding.

The left still rides high. Anyone know what to do? Massages don’t seem to be helping?

Scars

My scars are doing amazing. I’ve been using tamanu oil and silicone scar tape.
The inner stitches still hurt. As do my muscles across my ribs, and my sternum. I can’t hoist myself up onto the cupboards (short girl problems) or really work in my yard or garden. I can pull weeds, and do very small sections of dirt. But not much.
I need to sleep in a bra, I like them held in pace or my ribs (muscles?) hurt like crazy after a few hours.
I had my first bath the other night since surgery. Felt sooooo nice to soak in the Epsom salts.

Took the tape off

Doc said I can start massages to try and push the high riser into the pocket deeper.
I’ve taken the tape off and started using tamanu oil.
The last few days I have been better. But to describe pains... it felt like I had been filleted off my bones, just like I was. I could feel my breast tissue was soft, but the muscle is tight across the implant. It gets better day by day, but I need to work my higher breast down with massages.
They are nice. You’re basically trying to “milk” the implant down.
I am still taking arnica orally. The doc was wowed when he seen how well they are doing. I think the arnica is the big reason for that. He thought I was doing 2 weeks. When I told him he had only done it a week ago (I seen him on Wednesday) he was floored.
I have been taking arnica orally and using the gel as well on my upper breasts and on the sides and under.
There was a lot of pain and swelling under my breasts, alone my rib cage.
If you have ever broken a rib, I felt like that for a few days too. Hard to breath in or out. Turn. Push myself up from sitting or laying down.
I went for a light trail ride on a horse yesterday in Banff. That was very easy. No pain or discomfort.
I’m still being easy on myself. Pushing and pulling can be tender. So things like taking the yard or turning my garden and weeding are still a no.
I will include some photos of how the scars look.
