34F to 34C Breast Reduction

Hey all!
I got ahold of my before and afters I figured I'd post here for you guys! I didnt have any before pictures of my own that showed off how truly disproportianate and awful my before breasts were. Just looking at my before was making me cringe that I had those on my chest and how much of my torso they covered!! The afters were taken at my 6 week post op I believe. They were still pretty boxy and hadn't settled in as nicely as they are now.

Hey ya'll! Here's my 12 week update with lots of photos of course.
What's new:
Swelling continues to go down, I dont feel like my boobs look like implants anymore which I'm like 30% sad about lol!
I'm running again and it feels AMAZING! I totally understand people who like running now, it feels so much free-er. I wear my best sports bra and a compression vest so theres no bouncing. I feel like I can run forever!
I can now comfortably sleep on my stomach, I dont feel that wierd pressure any more.
That numb spot I mentioned a while back on my inner right portion of my boob is now tender to the touch and hurts if I press so my nerves are starting to fire back on slowly but surely.
100% feeling in both nipples and I'm pretty sure I'm gonna get em pierced when I'm fully healed.
My scars feel much softer, and when I run my hands across I can barely feel anything there. That "charger cable" feeling under my skin is down by 85% after I started getting more aggressive with my massages. I was just using the pads of my fingers at first but then I moved to using my knuckles and big differences happened after that. Again it was only on the inner chest portion and along my sides and now it's mostly just the inner chest that could still stand to go down some more. I think that's because it doesnt get much compression throughout the day unlike my sides which are pressed down by my sports bra (which is good for flattening scars) so I resorted to rolling up a sock and sticking it between my boobs in my sports bra for the day while I'm at work, and it sounds funny but it works!!! It was like a night and day difference when I started doing that.
Other than that it's mostly just color changes to my scars going on right now and keeping everything going I guess. Scars go from purplish to red/pink and then to white eventually and I'm in the purple/pinky stage. The time of day and what I've been doing makes them darker for that time being but I know they're on their way so I just trust the process.
I still do silicone strips 24/7 as much as I can basically. On run days I take the strips off and massage with palmers skin therapy oil. I prefer the palmers to bio oil just because I personally already know that palmers works really well for my skin so I just stick with that. It makes my skin really silky soft and it smells like hot chocolate.
I started doing the oil instead of silicone gel just to try something new and I've been pleased so far.
I took some close ups of my scars this time around so I can compare further on down the road, and also a bunch in cute bralettes I could never wear before just so you guys can see how they're sitting. I think they're perfect and I adore them!
My follow up appointment with my doc is in January so that will probably be my next post as well, but I'm always lurking on here checking out other peoples progress and journeys and I'm an open book so if you have any questions feel free to shoot! Hope you guys have happy holidays!!

Hey there! Just checking in at 8 weeks post op! Updates: I'm able to sleep on my stomach pretty much comfortably. It's not painful it's just a wierd sensation to get used to. My boobs would pretty much just squish this way or that before and now they're so firm I get wierded out by the pressure lol!
I sleep on my side 99% of the time and still wear my bras of course. I haven't gone a day without one, I just wear the least heavy duty one at night.
The product I tried for 2 weeks in my last update was Cicatricure and tbh I didn't see much change after the first few days even applying it 4-5 times a day (so obnoxious.) It's basically mederma and has a slight onion smell I wasnt fond of so I say dont waste your money.
I've been getting alot more random zingy pains since I started working out and lifting again. Even when I'm not doing anything, they're coming more frequent and sticking around longer so sometimes I grab and hold my boobs without thinking even in public or at work lol! Working out feels pretty good though, some movements I have to get used to again, and doing bench waa definitely a struggle going back down to baby weights but I don't wanna do too much too soon and I was hella sore the next day.
I've started getting slightly thicker scars, not visually on the surface, but on my sides and in the center of my chest when I rub those scars I can feel almost like a small ropey/cable type feel under my skin. It literally feels like a piece of charger cable is under my skin when I press. I've started focusing my massages there and some days they're softer than others but I'm just gonna keep massaging so they stay soft and hopefully I break them up enough that they go away but I'm gonna ask my doc about it.
Other than that I'm still pretty much on my same regiment of products other than the wound cleanser that's finally used up.
When switching out my silicone sheets I started trying to go 24 hours between changes and just leave them bare so my skin can breathe, and I will say I definitely don't like the feel of clothing rubbing on my scars without the silicone sheets as the buffer. It causes more zings and pin prickles here and there.
Todays photos include how they're lookin in bras and bare. Still not doing underwires of course. I wear medium in the wireless bras.
Happy healing all! Unless I've got important news I'll update again at 12 weeks!
