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.

Someone finally noticed!
Hahah it's funny but someone just walked into my office and asked, "Did you lose a bunch of weight? You look so good!"
I'm so pleased right now. :>
I still have a few big scabs, and the undersides just do not want to heal up, but otherwise I'm feeling good and I've been given the clearance to exercise as long as I have a sports bra, but I don't want to wear a new bra just to ick it up. Sigh. HEAL DAMN YOU!

My boobs aaaaaaaaaaache
So I think this is the part I've seen talked about where the breasts 'ping' constantly due to healing inside. It's not excruciating by any means but boy is it distracting and irritating and I just needed to whine a moment.
In other news I'm still fighting infection on both sides but the scabs look like they're starting to come away already so hopefully I'll get past this part soon, I'm tired of having to tape myself up every day. I'm NOT tired of not needing a bra though. I don't think I'll ever be upset if I never wear a bra again.

A couple weeks later..
Stitches came out Monday, still some infection but it's getting better according to the doctor (despite it looking super nasty) and now I just have to keep bandages on the nipples while they heal up on their own.
Something to consider though when you're having yours done.. the way my nipples were removed and grafted like they sometimes have to do, the doctor said that while the areole looks like it will live, the nipple itself always dies. I cried. I'd never really considered myself attached to them but the idea that something I'd always been attached to wouldn't be there anymore, it hit me emotionally in a way I didn't think possible. So now I don't really know what they'll look like and I'm sure it won't be that bad, but they still won't be quite the same..
On a happier note, I had a pleasant surprise eating out for the first time since the surgery when I didn't have to lean over myself just to eat, and I didn't leave with food all over my shirt. That was pretty nice and my boss laughed at me pretty good for being so happy about it.
So, I'll never regret doing it, but when you do, be sure to stop and really consider what you might gain AND lose and be at peace with that before you go in.

Such beautiful work!!! I cannot be more pleased with Dr Galiano and his staff who have been incredibly kind about taking a moment to reassure me when I'm afraid.
