Ok,
I'm almost 1 month in and I couldn't be happier! They've done some dropping and are getting a lot softer. I have a lot of internal stitches that take about 3 months to dissolve so they'll continue to be just what I was looking for. My revision was an old one (40 years) so my surgeon had his work cut out for him and he wanted to go under the muscle this time to better protect the implants etc. He is a revision specialist and I'm glad he listened and we ended up with nice results! The 3 months internal stitches are kind of a drag but he didn't want to use the 3 week ones because it wouldn't have given me time to heal for the work he did. I know they will end up being a bit bigger once the stitches heal etc. but I'm cool with that! LOL.

Just had my almost 3 weeks post op this morning and they are looking great! I knew my surgeon had his hands full with my revision and had to do a lot of internal dis solvable stitches. I asked him if he used the ones that last weeks or in my case the ones that last 3 months. He said he used the 3 month ones because I have a lot of healing and he wanted to make sure the old capsules he sewed down were completely healed before the stitches dissolve . Once they dis solve I may look a a little bit bigger. Considering I love my size now at less than 3 weeks post op. I'm one happy lady. Dr Smith is a reconstructive and revision specialist and worth every penny and than some. I told him I never had any pain which I credit to his surgery and the 20% strength topical Arnica Oil. I hope everyone is doing well. have an awesome day and hugs :-)

You look sooooo great. Your boobs are the perfect size. I'm jealous,! I'm having some issues that may require revision so am upset about that. It's not the skill of my surgeon, it's my anatomy.

Thanks Sooooo much for the compliment, I'm super happy already! Now I need no padding but once their completely done healing and softening I can put on a push up or whatever and get Vavoom!!!! LOL. Your Dr. may have you wait a couple of months before doing a revision so things can heal a bit and than he can know exactly what he'll need to do if you have to have a revision. Sounds like everything else is falling into place for you..., yeah!!!!! You've had such an extensive change and as women the wait for healing etc. can drive us nuts. As time goes on things will get better and better and you'll be even happier with your results than you are now. Your body had to endure so much all at once that I'm sure it will require some extra patience. Big hug :-)
