2 months post op
Officially hit 2 months post op. And literally feel like I’ve had these new boobs my whole life lol. I feel completely normal. However I had a tiny issue with a small hole and some leakage underneath my left breast. My doctor told me that was a possibility so I didn’t freak out too much. I kept it clean and put some neosporin on it. And it closed up in a week. Awesome! If that’s my only issue I’ll gladly take it.
Scarring is okay. I massage my breasts twice a day with vitamin e oil and aquaphor. I have more dark and bumpy scars on the sides. No one can see them so I’m okay with that. My body keloids so I expected a little something. Everywhere else seems good. Smooth a little red. I feel like I still swell up at times but everything seems good.
Now for bra shopping is my only issue lol. It still sucks. I’m so confused when I’m in the store. I not used to these girls. I don’t know them and what works for them. I’ve been measured multiple times at different stores and they are all different. For reference... at Target the Warner brand I’m a 38D and at Victoria’s Secret I’m a 38DD. I’m not wearing a wire bra because it rubs on my scars and I don’t like it and because I don’t need to have a wire lol. But I now have like 12 bras lol! I used to only have 2 and rotate them because they were so expensive! I’ve also bought more clothes that I wouldn’t have been able to wear with J cups. I’m so happy I feel normal now!

15 days Post Op
15 days post op and I swear it feels like yesterday! Today I went back to work and Im driving. I work in an office so it wasn’t so bad. I was just so exhausted and missing my naps lol. The new boobs are great so far. Just sore and bruised. I feel great tho. I had a bit of yellow leakage from my right beast. I called my doctors office to ask if that was normal and If I should be alarmed. I’m still waiting on that call back from the nurse ????. Luckily it stopped after a day or two. So I’ll assume it’s normal. But other than that things seem to be going well.

What a difference! Congratulations!
Thank you!
Congrats!! Your review helped me a lot! Going in for mine in 3 days
Oh I’m so glad my review was able to help you! If you have questions or need someone to talk to please message me! Congrats and good luck on your surgery! You will be so happy!
Thanks so much. I do have a question, are you able to start scar treatment at this point? If so, what oils/creams are you using? If not, did you doctor tell you when you’d be able to?
At my one month post op after all the steri strips were off my doctor told me I was allowed to put whatever I wanted on them. I didn’t kno much about scar treatments like silicone sheets and what not and she did not suggest them for me. So I have been using aquaphor and vitamin e oil which in my opinion works well for my body (I use it on my entire body) and just massaging the scars twice a day. I have a little scarring on my sides but i expected that and it’s not bothersome to me. I’ll do my 2 month review soon and post pics
Thanks, That’s really helpful. I bought a lot of vitamin e oils in preparation for the surgery.
Yeah I told my doctor that I wanted to use the vitamin e oil and she gave me the okay. And aquaphor is a healing ointment and helped with flaky skin.

8 days post op
I have been sore and swollen. But I literally felt like I have been walking on air since I woke up after the surgery. My back and neck are soooo relieved. I haven’t felt not one pain I used to feel with the big boobies. So crazy.
I have officially stopped taking the Percocet’s as of day 5. I only took them so I never felt the pain. My pain level never left a 4 honestly. I had my post op appointment today. I had my drains removed. Thankkkkk goodness. They were so annoying. I didn’t feel the removal at all. She said I’m still swollen but the girls look good. Minimal bruising. She told me she removed 4.5 pounds! WOW. I have to keep a sports bra on 24/7 for 2 weeks then 2weeks during the day only if I want. I can finally shower tomorrow. I’m equally excited and scared about this lol.
They still look a little big to me. I do understand it’s still early and I’m swollen. But honestly I’m just happy they aren’t J cups. I’m so happy I finally did this. Now counting down the days I can get in the gym because now these big boobs are gone I’m aware of this belly lol. Yikes
