Almost 7 months!

I'm only a few days from 7 months post op. The 'dent' I had finally went away after laying down one night and feeling something 'pop'. I believe it was a tight internal stitch that finally gave way and the dent disappeared afterward. My left breast is still a little larger than my right but it was that way before surgery and I don't find it very bothersome. I used Mederma scar gel for a couple of months after the first couple of months of healing and didn't see much of a difference. I stopped using it and decided to let it heal on its own for a bit but did get some thick raised scaring in a few places. I recently started using cica tape since its fairly cheap and you can cut it down the middle to double it. I put it on Sunday night and take it off Friday night and have noticed some of the scars have lightened up in just a couple of weeks. I will continue to use it for a few more months. I do need a small revision and have marked it on the photo. There seems to be a little excess skin in my cleavage on the left breast. I'm going to send this photo to the doc's office and see if I can schedule a revision or if I need to wait a little longer. Overall I'm fairly happy. My neck and shoulders don't bother me as much as before. I did end up being a 32D and was originally 32FF(UK)/32H(US). I just went and did my final bra shopping and can't believe how comfortable bras feel now. I was hoping for a C or B but understood there was only so much they could do without the possibility of complications.

I’ve been using Mederma gel scar cream and will be using it through September to get my two full months in. I still have a dent on the underside of my left breast and submitted a question to the docs here to see if it’ll eventually even out or do I need a revision. Also, I had to have my gallbladder removed 4 days ago.

Almost 7 weeks

There’s only a tiny bit of soreness when I reach for something above my head. Still a little concerned about the ‘dent’ in my right breast. I be been using the Mederma gel everyday. I believe some of the extra swelling in the left breast has gone down. I’m waiting until October before I’m fitted for a bra. Currently, my measurement under the breast is 30” and the circumference around my breasts is 35”, which wold put me at a 30DD or sister size at a 32D. It’s not quite the B-C cup I’d hoped for but everything I read said to wait at least three months for all the swelling to go down. I don’t know if that’s really the case. My breast do feel slightly tender to the touch so it may be the case.
