27, Lift Only, You Can Do It!

Hi guys!
Things went well and overall I had a really easy recovery. I do have a suture bubble where fat was removed from the side of my boob. They told me that would be corrected at no cost. Additionally, at this time I have no sensation in my right nipple anymore, I am not counting on it returning at this point-but there is a chance it could. That was disappointing but it has been okay! My other nipple is very sensitive. The result is great overall despite my 2 issues. It was worth it! I am very happy and the difference is truly fantastic!

Hi everyone! I found this website to be a great resource, so I wanted to add my own experience. I am 27, no kids and had my breast lift done yesterday. I just want to say that if I can go through with it, I think most anyone can. I have some pretty serious anxiety and this experience was surely a test. I dealt with the cold feet, reconsidering and everything inbetween. My weight has fluctuated a lot, up and down then back up- and back down- by considerable amounts. But for the last couple years I have maintained a pretty steady weight, between 155 and 165, I am 5'6. I considered implants but ultimately decided that it wasnt for me. So I will break down the procedure process. My registration was for 8:55AM and surgery was scheduled for 10:55. I was very emotional the morning before and in pre op. They gave me some sedatives which helped my nerves. Surgery was running behind so I didnt end up getting into the OR til about an hour later than expected, no big deal really. Everyone was great and helped me feel secure. I also had a my mom, cousin and boyfriend there with me, I reccomend bringing a support system if they are able to be there with you. This was my first surgery so I was terrified of the anesthesia. Anything to worry about, I did! Surgery was supposed to take 3 hours, but ended up being 5. The surgeon, Dr. Nesbit was awesome and actually went above and beyond by removing fat under my armpit because he wasn't pleased with the overall look, at no cost to me. Coming out of the anesthesia wasn't too bad. They had given me a small patch to prevent sickness. It honestly feels like a hangover, I was weak, tired/foggy and little dizzy but was not in pain and everything was very tolerable! I won't be able to shower for 48 hours, so tomorrow early evening. I was prescribed to take 1-2 pain meds every 4 hours and I have been doing fine with 1 pain med. They also prescribed tylenol every 6 and an antibiotic. I am thinking I wont need to be on the pain meds long, probably just until tomorrow. They make me a litte meh feeling, tired and spacey, but that is okay! If anyone has any questions feel free to ask. Like I said, I thought this platform was really helpful, but also a peice of advice, don't spend tooo much time on here. It can make nerves worse too, at least it did for me sometimes, but overall it was super helpful. All in all so far I am doing great. I will post progress pics once I can take off my surgical bra (tomorrow).
