i think your breasts were very beautiful before as well, now they are just amazing!
Thank you so much ! :)
Where is the doctor staying? Surgery address or contact? Pls send them to 0783821975
When did you take your taoe off of your incisions? I'm 16 days post surgery and still have tape on. My surgeon said it would just eventually fall off in the shower but it isn't really falling off and I'm terrified of it hurting to pull it off incisions!
I didn't have tape over my incisions leaving the hospital.. I'm sorry, I can't help you out /:
please, keep us updated. your results are the best I have ever seen!

25 Days Post Op

So happy with my results from my Breast Reduction Mammoplasty! They get better and better daily and are healing rather fast in my opinion! I'm mostly sore around/on all my incisions and stuff which was expected! I can't tell you how much this sugary helped not only physically but mentally also! I'm confident and feel comfortable in my own skin now! I give this surgery and my surgeon, Dr. Benjamin Mandel, 5stars! Couldn't be happier with what I got!

Also, now that I am passed my 2 weeks mark I can stop applying the bactricin zinc I was told to use. Currently I was advised to be applying petroleum jelly to my incisions along with Mederma! I am healing well and don't see any sign of infection!
They look perfect! What size are you now? My surgery is on Thursday!
Best of luck, we'll be here to welcome you to the happy smaller chested club
Thank you! I am not sure what size they are exactly but I was a 36DDD and i'm 32 " around now but still unsure about the cup size! & GOOD LUCK! I don't regret it at all& I hope your as happy as I am!
You look beautiful! So glad that you had the foresight to do this while you are young and can heal so well! Happy for you!
amazing results!

Hit my 2 week Post Op Mark

Feeling good and healthy but I'm sure in some pain still! Wanted to keep anyone&everyone that wanted to stay updated on my healing process and how far I've come! Just have a question about if it's normal for my nipples to be this dark?

i think your nipples look of a normal colour, if there was any issues surely they would've occurred before the two week mark, your breasts look great! Im 3 days post op now and have minimal pain. Although when I use my left chest muscle (very lightly) i get a painful stabbing sensation. Did you experience this?
I didn't feel a stabbing sensation although i am very sore in from of my arm pits like I did 100 push ups! Lol, thanks so so much!! I was very nervous!!
My nipples got much darker and more sensitive. I think when they were a DDD, there wasn't good blood flow . After the surgery, they got really sensitive and darker
