Breast Lift - Long Overdue

I got my first consultation for a breast lift in 2006, when I was 29. That was five years after I had my son. Unfortunately procrastination and fear are two close friends of mine, and have caused me to not get it done. After years of contemplating, researching and more consultations, I finally decided to get that lift I've always wanted. I decided to go with the lift without implants. I'm currently a 36d and am satisfied with the size, I just need them lifted. I am 4 days away from my surgery and am so nervous. I will be sure to post updates.

I can’t believe I went through with the surgery today. I’m still in shock and can’t feel the excitement just yet. Dr. Youn was extremely kind and professional and helped put me at ease. He is definitely a master at his craft. He noticed my right breast was ever so slightly larger, and made sure to reduce it so they will now be the same size. I’m home resting, feeling some pain. More so tightness and burning, but not enough to make me take the pain meds. He did put drains in my breast, which need to be emptied every 8 hours. I’ll post pictures in two days at my follow up visit.

I went and got my tubes out today. I was so scared to look at my breast for the first time since the surgery. I almost passed out from anticipating the worst! I had the nurse take a picture with my phone and show it to me. I was pleasantly surprised with what I saw. No more sagging breast! They look smaller than I was expecting but I will need to wait for them to settle before I can really see the new shape and size. The compression bra is killing me and so uncomfortable. I still feel pain where the stitches are, but it’s tolerable. I go back to the dr next week for them to take the tape off. I’ll post another update after my next visit.
