3 Weeks Post Op

WORTH IT$11,300
3 weeks Post Op Update: feeling pretty good but still a bit sore around flank and thigh area. Bruising is slowly fading. Some “hard” lumps mainly in my sides and flank area which I’m slowly massaging a bit everyday. Breasts are now feeling a bit sore and tingly here and there. Still about 32” which is nice, hoping it stays that way. Have some snaps of the incisions, ones under breasts are a little pink, and fading. The scar/bruising from using the BRAVA device is some what fading...?! I hope so but I’ve been looking at it everyday so I can’t tell anymore ???? One on my back is also fading it’s also next to my birthmark so can’t really tell it’s a scar. Ones on my thigh/under butt cheek are a bit more darker still need to moisturize these the most.

have the incision scars faded? Thats my biggest concern with this procedure are the scars going to continue to be dark and noticeable
I am a bit over 3 weeks Post so scars to take a while to fade. The two on my side/under the butt cheeks are medium dark grey-ish spots, and the darkest out of the 5 incisions, the one on my back is a bit lighter, but I have a light birthmark next to it anyways so this one doesn't bother me, and the two on my breasts are kind of light pink. The one on the left is a bit more pink than the right, the right breast incision is almost invisible. They provide a scar gel you can use to help with the scar healing. Scars a while, maybe a year + to fade depending on your skin. But I think I've been pretty lucky. My main problem is the scar and bruising from the Brava device, which you can see from my photos are pretty sad.
Helloo! Can u okeas egive us a three monthe update?
3 month update? Please?
Can you give us an update please? Your measurements are so close to mine and would love to know your progress
I have been back and forth with implants vs fat. Mainly because I have anxiety and I am afraid that the pressure in my chest implants cause will cause me to have a panic attack. Did you feel pressure in your chest with the fat transfer?

Day 18 Post Op

Almost 3 weeks, lip area swelling has gone down and I have changed to stage 2 of compression garment. Just a few more weeks of wearing it and I will be free. Still some bruising on my legs, and breasts, and I would like to believe the scarring/bruising from the BRAVA device usage is slowly lightening up. Still a bit dark, and it's the only thing making me unhappy (but this was from the prior surgeon I saw).

Chest still measures 32" a little bit less swollen than the last update. But still looks nice. Scar on breast is fading fairly quickly. The one on my back tailbone is also fading quickly. The other two on side under butt cheek not so much but I am not too bothered.

Day 12 Updates

12 Days Post Op Update
Brusing is slowly going away on my thighs. Soreness is also slowly going away, but now mainly my hips/side area between flank and butt is the most sore. I tried taking the pain medications and Advil but it doesn't work, so I stopped.
The incisions under the breasts you can hardly see them anymore! It's only Day 12 too!! It's a little light pink but I'm actually very surprised. Perhaps if I'm lucky after a few weeks it wouldn't even leave a scar.
Ultimate goal would be to have all incisions practically scarless if possible!!
Still a bit of bruising on my breasts and chest. I'm pretty sure majority of that is from prior usage of the BRAVA Device. I'm kind of concerned about this the most, I'm hoping it would go away soon but this is the only thing making me a but upset.
Weight is about 103/104 right now. Underbust 28", Chest is 32" Waist was earlier 28" now it's back to 25/26"
