Scars looking better!

My PS saw the pics of those gruesome 'under boob' scars and told me to put Bactroban on every day. Looks like its really made a difference! Those scars are still quite hard to look at but I can see that they are starting to come together and close up compared to last week!
Other than that- they're looking great. It was my birthday yesterday and I wore a dress which I would usually have to squish my boobs into and look all cleavagy, but I wore it with no bra and it looked great! I'm meant to wear the surgical bra 24/7 but it was just one night and that dress was probabaly just as supportive as the bra haha. It was the first time since the op that i really felt like I look very different now- because dresses like that are usually very hard for me to wear.
I'm going to start going to gym today and just do light cardio- It's summer here soon and I need the rest of me to look great like my boobies!! :P

First Sterri Strip Change- WARNING: Pics might make you queezy :)
CkgirlSeptember 3, 2013
Hi All,
It's been 3 weeks since my op! On Friday I changed my steri strips at home as I was instructed to and since then I've been applying tissue oil to the scars twice a day!
Now as I said in my last post, when I saw my scars for the first time with the nurse- they were really raw and hard to look at, but now they appear much much better. The only thing that I am a little concerned about is the scar at the bottom of each breast. I was lucky enough not to get any scars going accross the bottom, but I have these scars at the bottom (not going accross)- I assume these were points of incision- and they are still really gross and almost appear to be open compared to the others. I think this could just be because the scab came off so now they are really soft and mushy. When I took the bandages and steri strips off they had left fluidy blood marks so it made me abit queezy lol (I'm bad with this stuff). I sent pics to my surgeon so I'll see what he says. I've attached pics- sorry if this makes any of you ill! :)
Other than that- the actual boobies look amazing! They have relaxed a little so they feel more like mine now, as opposed to these rock hard foreign objects on my chest haha. I'm so used to them now- I cant really remember what it was like to have my old saggy ones. It's made me more motivated to diet and exercise as I want the rest of my body to look as great as my boobs do now! Also, I have a fear of them getting bigger if I put on weight! I haven't been to gym yet- I've just been eating healthy, but I plan to start going this week and will just do light cardio so I don't effect the healing.
I'm really glad I did this!

Thanks for your update.They look beautiful. I can´t speak out of my own experience because I haven´t had my op. yet but I´ve seen it (the last picture) more on other girls photos.
I think that the left breast, needs a bit more time as far as healing is concerned. The skin there did not stay as close together as it should.

Thanks :) My PS just called me and he said I must put bactroban on that scar and change the tape daily instead of weekly. I'm just glad it isn't an infection!

I had the same type of looking scar and my PS said it was my body eating up the stitches ! I used polysporn and now 2 days later it looks way better !! You look awesome by the way !!

Bandages off!
CkgirlAugust 22, 2013
So yesterday I went to get my bandages taken off and replaced with steri strips (still kinda look like bandages). On my right breast, there is NO cut/scar on the bottom and because the left breast was abit bigger, there is just a tiny cut on the bottom. As expected, the scars were quite gross to look at but my PS said they will form a scab and then fall off, and eventually fade into probably hardly anything! I have stitches that are being removed tomorrow.
Uploaded some new pics. Cant believe how little and perky they are :)
