I had my surgery a week ago and the way my boobs lol, I’m not sure, I’m seen many reviews and pictures but mine has no shape, looks like a uniboob and I know it needs time to heal. Just nervous that this will end up a “botched” job

Congratulations! One week is really too soon to know. There is tremendous swelling at this stage, so don't despair. It would be more helpful if you take some more photos at more of a distance so that we can see your side and front to help you assess your progress. From what I can see, you look just fine, though. Please post more as I am sure there are many women that have gone through the ups and downs of post reduction that will be very supportive.

Mine looked worse, the healing process was so slow, I am 5 weeks post op and everything looks good. The skin in my nipple Ariola area peeled off and I now have a pink Adeola but that’s okay, I can see some tiny colour starting to show.

The bandage that was on my nipple came off today but it took a little skin off around my areola! Thank you for comment!,

You will be fine - I was unprepared for the swelling in the space between my boobs, and I was a little shocked. However this soon goes down. It’s difficult to see from the pics you have posted but I think you will have a great result and definitely have not made a mistake

This is week two, there’s a bruise on the left side of my breast right above the nipple! Looks really scary, and there some bleeding happening. Which came out of no where. The bandage that was around my nipple on my right breast peeled off. Everything looks scary and not promising for me at this moment and time

If you look at a lot of pics on this website, mostly everyone has cleavage, looks like I maybe a small percent that doesn't? Not sure why? But I will post progress pics

Hopefully it's just swelling. It is still very early. Best of luck to you.

Today, I’ve been bleeding from my left breast, and I haven’t been bleeding much at all, it’s been soaking up my pads and I’m worried. I have been moving a lot more and I’m not sure if that’s the problem. At this moment not entirely sure what is happening Will keep you all updated.

An update, went to the er yesterday, I was told that it was just fluid our bodies make and nothing to worry about, there’s no infection at all. I saw my surgeon today, she opened up the area that was leaking a little more, so that fluid could come out. She says it’s best for everything to come out, instead of staying in. So far just padded with a lot of gauze. And I see her on Friday.
