Going back to the BEST!

After having an AMAZING experience with my tummy tuck, I am going back to Dr. Messa for my breasts! Surgery is only two days away and I didn't share my TT journey with you guys.. so I have decided to share this one. I am going to do a "donut" lift with saline implants. I want a natural look and I was afraid of doing a lift at all, but I trust Dr. Messa with every ounce of my being. I LOVE my plastic surgeon and I'm ready for Tuesday!

Day of treatment

Day of Surgery

Surgery was this morning!!!! Ahhh it went so well. It was at 7AM when they brought me back and it's 2:30 pm now. I've taken one Percocet and one flexeril (muscle relaxer) so far. After I woke up, I declined the pain meds and the nurse was like "Wow! The patients are usually in tears at this time!" I think I have a high pain tolerance.
Dr. Messa went back over my tummy tuck scar (long one and belly button) to inject some steroid because certain spots were getting hypertrophic.
I can't take off the binder thing until my appointment tomorrow but I am so excited to see.
I can NOT say enough about how AMAZING my whole experience has been with Dr Messa and his staff. I seriously don't think any other surgical team compares. I love how his OR is big and clean and right in the office. I love the nurses. Dr Cohen was my anesthesiologist this time and I LOVED him- so professional but down to earth at the same time. And of course I love Dr Messa. I am so happy!! Will post updates tomorrow after or during the postop appointment!

Hi!!! Yeah!! Congrats on making it to the other side!! Im so excited, and happy with, and for you!!! So,,,what size implant, and what profile?? Take care...it sounds like you are doing great, but the first few days are the roughest. Be sure someone you love, and trust is around to help you. Looking forward to following your progress!!! Its an amazing adventure. Im 7 months post op, and yes..it really does take up to a year to heal. But, its been 100% worth it!! Take care,,,and Happy Healing!!!!

Thank you!! I'm so happy and can't wait for my final result because I'm still in the scary stage lol. I got smooth round moderate profile submuscular silicone implants, 345cc on right, 375cc on left. Thank you again!

Bandages off

Today they took off the bandages and I almost fell down when I saw how HUGE they were! The nurse told me before she took them off that they were going to be HUGE and HIGH but that's not the permanent look! I gotta keep telling myself that. I hope the swelling goes down and they even out sooner than later. I'm constantly icing them.
