Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

3 months post-op
Now 3 months post-op, using scar gel and vitamin E. Occasionally still tingle/itch, some sensitivity with scar tissue, able to sleep on my side and stomach, no noticeable fluctuations in size or shape.
Additional info/thoughts
1) Through five weeks, I was aware of my breasts 24/7. They are uncomfortable, tight, foreign, itchy, having sharp zings of sensation, etc. It was annoying! Between 5-6 weeks is when some of that started going away for me.
2) my cousin who had breast reduction surgery recommended a u shape pregnancy pillow. This was a lifesaver for the purposes of propping myself up at night
3) they itch! - I took antihistamines and lightly rubbed the itchy areas

Photos
These are the photos from my breast reduction preop, 1 day post, and weekly after that. Hope they help show progression. I know it can be hard to find photos of where you are in your recovery. I will add 3 month photo once I'm there.
