Well, I see the surgeon next Saturday. I was suppose to see him on my 6th wk but I couldn’t because of work. Right now I’m just working on my appearance of my scars. Silicone strips and Skinuva, alternating. The incision site itches like crazy from time to time. I guess that’s a sign of healing. I want to back massage so bad but laying on my breast isn’t what I want to do right now. Back and body is sore from still kinda sleeping one way and work is more physical because I transferred to another deposit. I’m wearing comfortable sports bras now and I come out of it as soon as I get home. I’ll ask my surgeon if I need to wear it more often. No more surgical garment. It’s too loose and the clasps keep coming undone. My new clothes fit great but I need to invest in nipple covers. They are prominent. It’s sexy at home in tank top but in public isn’t what I want. I will post another pic a month from today to see if there’s any difference in my breast while healing is still taking place with my incisions. I think I’m pretty much settled in. I feel great and I feel so confident. The left breast (slightly bigger) is catching up to my right slowly but surely. My nipples were uneven but they are leveling out. I was worried at first but as I stated in the other post, time/patience is required for this process. Left nipple still a wee bit sore. Nipple sensitivity is leveled on my right but left still is hypersensitive but on the lowest level. All and all, no regrets on this end at all. They are so much better than what I was dealing with all my life. I’m glad they were healthy even though they saggy. LOL. My phone takes pics inverted. I gotta fix that. The boob to your left is my left boob. Until next time…

You can still get massages! When you schedule your appointment, as if they have a special breast pillow bolster. It's a special pillow that has opening where your boobs go so they don't get smashed by your body weight!
I actually have that. When I would lay on my stomach during my bbl (2018) recovery because my boobs would hurt laying on my stomach so much. I wasn't sure if I can take it with me and was thinking I would be awkwardly positioned and not flat. I'll ask when I commit to making an appointment. Thank you for such great advice!

Added another pic

Just wanted to add another pic so you can see my progress instead of going back to see the before. They are so much than what I had. They were covering the top of my stomach. I had a skin discoloration I developed as a child and that has been mostly removed. I’m happy about that too. My mom and I still don’t know what caused that because I wasn’t born with it. Doctors couldn’t figure out what happened but it was harmless.

Hey y’all.

I am finally able to side sleep for a little while. Then I have to return to my back. My back has been achy from sleeping on it for a month and a half. I’ve been going without a bra the last couple of days. I’m off on the weekends so I have been able to let the girls be free, lol. I feel I’m at the point of just wanting my scars to fade out and the loosening of my scars to take effect. It’s not tight tight but it’s still a little tight. I’m using Skinuva so I’m just using it twice a day. Morning and night. I’m not even watching my scars. I’m just applying and hopefully one day soon look at them and be like, “Oh wow!” I’m happy with my results. Left breast is slightly bigger than right. My right boob is my favorite, lol. It healed/healing much faster than the left. It gave me no issues. Left one acted up, lol. It isn’t uncommon. I had spitting stitches in the left. I was scared I had necrosis. Bought this cream that had silver in it and never used it. Thank God I didn’t need it. Scared myself, smh. I believe my implants have fully dropped and I’m awaiting for the full fluff. When I lay on my back, I can still feel the firmness and wondering if that’ll soften up. One thing I’ve learned about this process, it’s all about the passage of time. Whether you’re patient or not, you gotta wait. Patience make the process go easier.

Posture plays a part too ladies. When I pull my shoulders back creating better posture, my breast look better. When you slouch, the look different.

I’m still getting carboxy to help with healing of my scars. Process takes less than 10 minutes. In and out. Once this process is over and I pay off/down on my Care Credit card, I’m looking into getting the QWO shots. I pay bills and have debt and I figure if I’m going to be paying on something, at least it be for something I TRULY want. I am going to be in debt regardless so eff it. It’s not breaking me at all so. QWO takes away cellulite on a permanent basis. I want to get the dimples out of my booty. It’s not a whole lot but I want it smoother than what it is. I have this one particular dent I had since I was baby to be resolved. I thought the bbl was going to smooth everything but I was uneducated in that area. Bbl’s only enlarge what you already have and the doc shape what he could but smoothing area out isn’t what bbls do.

I’m an advocate of fixing what you don’t like within reason and that’s what I’m doing. I’m gonna do my varicose veins too. Might do them at the same time with the QWO. As of right now, it’s the healing of my breast are my priority. Then I’ll continue with “To Do” list. :)

Here’s an updated pic of my breast. Until next time…
