Even better than I hoped for

Feels like a slight step backwards
WORTH IT
Just a quick update. Over the last few days but maybe even about a week, I’ve noticed some increased tenderness at incision sites and also within. No photo with this post because nothing looks alarming but I did experience an onset of some light pain and discomfort which feels like it runs along incision sites and perhaps also enhanced by any tissue setteling. It’s sort of hard to tell but I feel like I was more comfortable in my healing process a few weeks ago compared to current state.
Still pleased though and I like to think that the satisfaction overall is what counts most.

Long overdue update
I have completely slacked on updates. Shortly after my in-person follow-up with surgeon and RN, the world went into COVID lockdown and work life became extremely busy.
To try to keep this short I will say that everything is healing wonderfully and I am still incredibly pleased. I’m grateful for the constant support of Dr. Born and his staff and will never be able to thank them enough. I’ve gone through various stages over the last few weeks - from burning sensations, shooting pains, tissue pain - all of which has practically subsided by now. I do still notice some minor discomfort depending on what I’m doing (lifting heavier things up to top shelves or cupboards) but otherwise I am golden. I even have sensation which is great considering I lost so much of it after breastfeeding days but doesn’t appear that I’ve lost the feeling of touch or the effects of a chill...if you get my drift :)

You're right, seems like the whole world is in chaos right now! Thanks for the update and glad things are going well! Your results are fabulous!!
You’re welcome and yes, they really are! I smile every time I’m reminded which is often.
Hope you are staying safe (and sane!)

Is this your natural breast lifted or did you have implants?
No implants. Dr Born performed the lift with auto augmentation.
What is auto augmentation?
Fabulous!! And thank you for letting us know about chills. That is a big issue with me. That and getting out of my own way to lose weight
Gorgeous! Your scars are amazing! Wha kind of scar treatment did you do?

So far so good
Feeling a slight disconnect between patient and provider but that’s not meant to sound critical, just matter of fact and the way it goes sometimes.my surgeon hasn’t been available since procedure and I’m understanding of that.
I’ve had two good follow ups with Yolanda but have not seen Dr. Born since my surgery (again, not critical because life happens but naturally would like his voice in my recovery process)
Needless to say, I think things are ‘OK’ and I have a rescheduled appointment with Dr. Born in March 17, so hoping to have questions and a concern addressed as it relates to some ‘puckering’ on right breast addressed. (No photos of the last thing mentioned, for wed comfort and respect of professional sake because it may ‘settle’ just fine; not noticeable head on)
Photo provided is 1.5 weeks post-op

Wow!! Fabulous result!! My lift is scheduled for 3/30 and I could only hope to have a result as amazing as yours! Thanks for sharing your story and hope you get to talk to your surgeon in person soon.
That’s so soon! I’m excited for you. Sending good vibes for a successful surgery and a comfortable recovery! I hope it brings you the instant smiles I experienced.
Oh and I will get to see him next Tuesday which will give me comfort. All of his staff are wonderful so it’s not like I’m left hanging by any means but naturally I just need that post-op connection with him because he’s the expert.
I totally understand as I'm exactly the same way! It helps me to "process" everything! I know it's soon yet somehow feels soooo far away! Just counting the days and wondering how I'm going to get ANY sleep the night before. ;) Thanks for the good vibes! Your results certainly make me feel more at ease! Hoping for the same level of success!
Congrats on the amazing results! How are you doing currently?
What type of cut did you undergo for this procedure?
Terribly sorry I missed this comment. I will be sure to take a photo of the underside in my next update but it was lollipop
did you have an implant or natural? They look great!
